VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA — (Marketwire) — 02/28/13 — OneMove Technologies Inc. (“OneMove” or the “Company”) (TSX VENTURE: OM), the provider of the leading web-based real estate transaction platform and the creator of the largest and fastest growing online community of conveyancing professionals, announced today its financial results for the six months period ended December 31, 2012. All figures are reported in Canadian dollars.
The second quarter saw the Company continue to build its membership and brand by concentrating on adding new users and expanding the largest network of conveyance professionals. For the quarter ended December 31, 2012, MLS® listed sales in British Columbia were down by 17% compared to the same period a year ago.
Second Quarter Operational Highlights
Fiscal 2013 Q2 Financial Summary
Operations in British Columbia
Concurrent with Q1, the results for this quarter have been negatively affected by the downturn in the British Columbia real estate market which is due to the tighter mortgage credit regulations. The number of real estate transactions recorded through the MLS have declined, respectively, 10%, 17% and 27% in October, November and December of this year versus a year ago.
Although there is no certitude of when the market will pick up again, analysts are predicting that such decline will be temporary and that the calendar year 2013 will see such a decline being re-absorbed due to an expanding population, strong full-time employment growth and persistent low mortgage interest rates.
Our sales teams have started to commercialize our large volume project version of econveyance in BC which has been and continues to be in beta testing. Prospects for this platform are promising and we expect being able to book first revenues from this version in Q3 of this year.
Operations in Alberta
Most of the Company-s commercial efforts are now in the province of Alberta, which is currently enjoying a more stable real estate market. We are still assessing our growth in Alberta and hope to increase our market penetration. Alberta is different from BC as more competitors are present, the market is more fragmented and there are many prospects that have not yet embraced an electronic conveyancing platform.
The Company continued to invest in sales and marketing in Q1 and Q2. Our sales teams, some of which have been recruiting in the Q1 and Q2 are constantly building their pipelines and we expect that this materialize in stronger Q3 sales.
