Vigil Health Solutions Inc. (TSX VENTURE:VGL) ("Vigil") announces the results of
operations for the fiscal year and the fourth quarter, ending March 31, 2011.


Highlights  



--  Profit of $109 thousand for the three month period ended March 31, 2011
    compared to a loss of $236 thousand in the three month period ended
    March 31, 2010.   

--  Reduced annual losses by 87% to $70 thousand for the year ended March
    31, 2011 compared to $532 thousand for the previous year. (Achieved
    positive Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, of $16 thousand
    compared to a loss of $438 thousand in the year ended March 31, 2010.)  

--  Increased revenue by 8% to $4.38 million in the year ended March 31,
    2011 compared to $4.06 million in the prior year.   

--  Grew service and maintenance revenue and one-off sales by 49% in the
    fiscal year to $1.23 million.   

--  Reduced operating expenditures by 20% to $1.87 million from $2.34
    million for the year ended March 31, 2010.   

--  Released the Vitality Care System(TM), a new wireless monitoring system
    designed to appeal to the resident, the system features a new, discreet
    'mini pendant' that takes advantage of new wireless standards to
    facilitate longer battery life and reliability in a compact design. 



"We are pleased to have achieved profitability in both the third and fourth
quarter of fiscal 2011. Similarly, the substantial reduction in losses seen year
over year reflects our ability to maintain revenue levels and margins, while
containing costs during the recession. I remain confident in the strong
fundamentals of the senior living industry and believe demand will grow as the
United States economy strengthens," stated Troy Griffiths, President and CEO of
Vigil Health Solutions Inc.


Financial Results

Bookings for the year ended March 31, 2011 were $3.57 million compared to $3.18
million in the year ended March 31, 2010. Management believes that, while new
construction activity is still at historically low levels, the 12% increase in
bookings may be a reflection of the first signs of recovery in the US new senior
housing market.


At March 31, 2011 Vigil had a backlog of approximately $1.43 million (including
$521 thousand in deposits and progress billings, recorded as deferred revenue on
the balance sheet) as compared to $2.78 million (including $1.28 million in
deposits and progress billings, recorded as deferred revenue on the balance
sheet) at March 31, 2010.


Vigil records revenue under the completed contract method of revenue
recognition. The timing of the installation of the technology is often dependent
on facility construction schedules, which can result in a considerable lag
between receipt of contracts and revenue recognition. The Company's backlog
includes all contracts signed including those in progress but not completed.


Revenue for the year ended March 31, 2011 was $4.38 million compared to $4.06
million in the year ended March 31, 2010, an increase of 8%. As mentioned above
there can be a considerable lag between receipt of contracts (bookings) and
revenue recognition. The increase in revenue is largely due to the completion,
and related recognition of revenue, on the largest sale in the Company's history
($770 thousand, booked in fiscal 2010). In fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 the
revenue from service and maintenance agreements and one-off sales grew by 49% to
$1.23 million compared to $820 thousand in the year ended March 31, 2010.


The gross margin percentage for the year ended March 31, 2011 was 42% compared
to 45% for the year ended March 31, 2010. Gross margins are in line with
management's expectations of annual margins of between 42% and 47%.


Operating expenditures for the year ended March 31, 2011 were $1.87 million down
20% from operating expenditures of $2.34 million for the same period ended March
31, 2010. Reflecting the tight economic environment the Company decreased
expenditures in all areas in fiscal 2011.


Losses for the year ended March 31, 2011 were $70 thousand, or $0.014 per share,
compared to $532 thousand, or $0.106 per share, for the previous year. The 87%
decrease in losses is primarily attributable to the 20% or $473 thousand
decrease in operating expenses.


A summary of our financial performance for the year ended March 31, 2011 follows
below. For further information relating to the financial results of the Company,
please refer to the Company's financial statements and MD&A filed on SEDAR at

Non-GAAP Measure

For the year ended March 31, 2011, we are disclosing Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP
financial measure, as a supplementary indicator of operating performance. We
define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before, interest, income taxes,
amortization, stock based compensation and currency gains or losses including
derivative foreign exchange differences. We are presenting the non-GAAP
financial measure in our filings because we use it internally to make strategic
decisions, forecast future results and to evaluate our performance and because
we believe that our current and potential investors and analysts use the measure
to assess current and future operating results and to make investment decisions.
It is a non-GAAP measure, may not be comparable to other companies and it is not
intended as a substitute for GAAP measures.
