Dividend Declared
The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of

This represents an 88% increase in the dividend from the same
quarter result of last fiscal year of $0.16. The Company declared
dividends payable to shareholders totaling $0.92 per share based on
the quarterly results of fiscal 2007, as compared to $0.59 per
share for the quarterly results of last fiscal year.
"The fourth quarter was very strong for us and finished off a
great year," stated Geoff Knapp, Chairman and CEO of CAM Commerce
Solutions. "Our X-Charge payment processing business continued to
deliver as expected for us and system sales continued to show
stability with a slight increase in 4th quarter revenue over the
same period of last fiscal year and another quarter of improving
margins. Our overall pre-tax profit margin of 28% in the 4th
quarter showed that we are maintaining good controls on our cost
structure even as we see significant growth in our payment
processing business. We delivered another good year of shareholder
value with excellent gains in our stock price and significantly
increasing dividends. And even while paying those high dividends,
we continued to see our cash and marketable securities balance
increase by almost $2 million in the 4th quarter alone. Recurring
revenues in the 4th quarter (payment processing and support
services) grew to 71% of our total revenues, giving us an
increasingly stable and more predictable revenue stream. I am
optimistic that our momentum will carry us into a successful fiscal
2008 and beyond."
