Parta Dialogue Announces a 31% Increase of its Revenues for its Nine-Month Period Ended February 28, 2013

MONTREAL, QUEBEC and TORONTO, ONTARIO and MEXICO CITY, MEXICO and PARIS, FRANCE — (Marketwired) — 04/30/13 — Parta Dialogue (TSX VENTURE: PAD) an up and coming leader in Social Media Optimization and Social Learning for organizations at the forefront of digital strategy, released results for its most recent nine-month period ended February 28, 2013. Revenues have increased by 31% compared to the nine-month period ended February 29, 2012 and by 105% compared to the nine-month period ended February 28, 2011. Condensed interim unaudited consolidated Financial Statements and Management Report are available on SEDAR-s website at .

In addition to the $598K increase in revenues for the nine-month period, Parta has also announced that, in comparison to the same nine-month period ended February 28, 2013, its cost of sales have increased by 85% and the cost of marketing and sales have increased by 113% to support the Company-s growth plan and the rapid development of Version 2.0 of its eValue Social Media ROI Suite. Operating expenses also includes $188K expenses related to the acquisition of M Thirty Communications Inc. in September 2012.

CEO Paull Allard expanded on the results by saying: “We are at a critical inflection point in our business cycle. We have invested heavily in product development and sales and marketing and it-s time for the business to deliver. We are satisfied with the year-over-year revenue growth but have even higher expectations of our business units for the coming quarters – as we move out of what is typically a budget and planning season. We are seeing great traction on the front lines: broadening of the business development pipeline, referrals, repeat clients, larger budgets and international sales. The challenge is to build revenues to the point where the business is self-sustainable. The slowdown in development costs will aid with that balance. Our people are up to the challenge, our clients have great things to say and we think our offering will bring us success in the market-place.”
