“We saw an increase in recurring revenues over the same period last year because of higher software assurance sales to our growing installed base, as well as an increase in the number of cloud-based subscriptions, as we transition the business to a SaaS model,” Mr. Pascoe said in a statement.

As of July 31, Magor (TSX-V:MCC) had an order backlog of $509,846, down from $597,673 at the end of April. The company had cash on hand of $41,255, compared with $201,086 three months earlier.
