IPLAYCO ANNOUNCES RECORD QUARTERLY SALES AND EARNINGS FOR ITS FIRST QUARTER ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2016

Iplayco Corp. Ltd. has provided the financial results for its first quarter ended Dec. 31, 2016. All amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.

This news release contains financial information derived from Iplayco's unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2016. More detailed information can be found in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and management's discussion and analysis for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2016, which are being filed with the applicable Canadian regulatory authorities.

"We are very pleased to announce record quarterly sales of $7.2-million and record quarterly earnings of $959,209, or diluted net income per share of five cents, for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2016 (Q1 2017). The non-recurrence of various costs incurred during the three months ended Sept. 30, 2016 (Q4 2016), resulted in a gross profit percentage of 39.7 per cent in Q1 2017 as compared to 19.3 per cent in Q4 2016. Although we are anticipating lower sales for the three months ending March 31, 2017 (Q2 2017), due to the scheduling of manufacturing and delivery of various larger projects, we are expecting to generate strong net earnings in Q2 2017," said Scott Forbes, president and chief executive officer and director of Iplayco.
