TORONTO, ON–(Marketwired – May 29, 2015) – Symbility Solutions Inc. (the “Corporation”), (TSX VENTURE: SY), a global software company dedicated to developing applications for the insurance industry, today announced financial results for its first quarter 2015, ended March 31.

“As we had announced at the beginning of 2014, our largest customer terminated at year-end which impacted our first quarter revenue. This customer, together with the supply chain, represented $10.3 million which effectively reset our revenue to $17.5 million to start 2015,” commented James Swayze, CEO, Symbility Solutions Inc. “While we knew it would be challenging to recoup this lost revenue in a single year, we are pleased to report that our first quarter financial results, together with the pro forma growth attributable to the business we acquired in the UK have us at a run rate of approximately $23.5 million with a more balanced customer concentration of 10 percent.”

This compares to revenues of $7.2 million in the same period last year.
