TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - May 13, 2015) - Tellza Communications Inc. (TSX:TEL) announced its unaudited financial results for the three months ended March 31^st, 2015.

Revenue was $60 Million USD compared to $51 Million USD in 2014, growth of 18%. Net Income was ($0.1) million USD compared to net income of $0.3 million USD in 2014. The decrease in Net Income is primarily related to the inclusion of operating costs related to Matchcom acquired in 2014 and an increase in depreciation and amortization related to CAPEX and business acquisitions in 2014 and 2013. EBITDA* was $0.5 million USD compared to $0.8 million USD in 2014, a decrease of 38%. The reduction in EBITDA is related to tighter margins in our core business, and start-up costs related to route dynamix.

"We are experiencing an increasingly competitive landscape in our communications business as long distance services continue to commoditize. This has affected our margins and EBITDA in the first quarter of 2015," said Gary Clifford, Executive Chairman. Mr. Clifford also commented on developments in the Company's Technology business: "We have recently decided to make our technology platform available to third party carriers, thereby creating a new cashflow stream to Tellza, and we are already in discussions with several carriers who are showing interest in adopting our platform for their businesses."

The Company's financial statements and other disclosures are available on SEDAR.

*We define EBITDA and Cash Profits as earnings before taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock based compensation, and interest. EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, it is a standard measure used in the telecommunications industry to assist in understanding and comparing operating results. EBITDA is reviewed regularly by management and our Board of Directors in assessing performance and in making decisions regarding the ongoing operations of the business and the ability to generate cash flows. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance nor does it have a standardized meaning under IFRS. In evaluating these measures, investors should consider that the methodology applied in calculating as such measures may differ among companies and analysts.
