from existing customers accounted for 71% of total new orders received during the most recent quarter, while 29% of new bookings resulted from orders received from new customers.

“We met our expectation for sequential revenue growth in the second quarter with a 20%-24% increase, and we are on track to achieve our objective of sequential quarterly revenue growth averaging 15%-20% for the balance of the fiscal year,” said Paul Arena, Chief Executive Officer of Augme Technologies, Inc. “With a record $18.9 million backlog at quarter-end, momentum continues to build as more companies adopt mobile marketing and existing customers budget additional dollars for mobile marketing and advertising campaigns.”

The Company will report its second quarter financial results on October 10, 2012 before the market opens. An investor conference call will be held at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time the same day to discuss these operating results.
