At this time, it's my pleasure to turn the call over to Genasys' chief executive officer, Richard Danforth. Please go ahead, Richard.

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Thank you, Kim, and welcome, everyone. Our fiscal 2022 was off to a solid start with another quarter of strong revenue, solid execution and new business developments. First quarter revenues increased 33% year over year despite external supply chain challenges that are disrupting businesses globally. We are managing our supply chain challenges primarily through reengineering our hardware components and developing alternative channels for sourcing our materials.

We are taking proactive measures, including managing for longer lead times by building inventory and crucial components to fulfill our customer orders and meet our fiscal 2022 growth objectives. The year has started with good contract award activity with bookings totaling $7 million and progress toward accelerating our Software-as-a-Service, or SaaS business. We recently announced new SaaS contracts with key wins in Texas, California and our first European Union public warning system win in the country of Slovenia. Our unified solutions are now on track to help protect more than 40 million lives globally.

Said another way, lives covered globally by Genasys software increased by over 30% in the fiscal first quarter, demonstrating the global expansion which we are capable of. We grew our Genasys Emergency Management, or GEM software service business in Texas with new contracts that replace competitors' emergency notification services in Madison County and in the town of Little Elm. In addition to renewing our GEM contract with the Texas Office of the Attorney General, new GEM software services were added to the Port of Houston to enhance worker and visitor safety. We had previously installed an integrated mass notification system at the port.

The synergies of our suite of software and hardware systems offer key competitive advantages that are spurring new and follow-on orders and increasing pipeline growth. The synergies of our software and hardware systems enable Genasys to expand its engagement within Alameda County with a new mass notification and emergency warning system contract with the city of Berkeley. Alameda County launched Zonehaven emergency evacuation software and public safety resources in June 2021, which helped facilitate the new contract to install an integrated mass notification system network that will enable the city to broadcast voice notification with exceptional clarity and coverage. With our GEM software, IMNS outdoor speaker arrays can perform as a network or individually for citywide or hyper local notifications.

A key differentiator of this configuration is its ability to continue operating when power or telecommunications infrastructure goes down. These unique features are examples of additional key competitive differentiating helping Genasys win new awards. In addition to our expansion in Alameda County, we recently signed Los Angeles County and four additional California counties to Zonehaven SaaS multiyear contracts. Our critical evacuation planning, alerting and access to real-time life safety information are now available to first responders, emergency service agencies and more than 8.7 million California residents under annual recurring revenue contracts.

These contracts have also opened the door to additional business opportunities with these and other counties and communities in California and in other states. In Europe, the country of Slovenia selected our National Emergency Warning System, or NEWS, to help keep more than 2 million residents and 3 million annual visitors safe and informed during emergencies and critical events. Genasys NEWS was selected for several reasons, including the platform's advanced architecture and the ability for the public safety agency to send geo-specific alerts to any mobile phone in near-real time. I'd like to congratulate our European team for this excellent work and this great award.

EU activities for compliance to the mandate has picked up. We anticipate -- continue to anticipate that the mandated June of 2022 deadline will be extended primarily due to the impact of COVID in Europe. Our ongoing investment in resources to support our growing SaaS business will expand our emergency management platform by enhancing and integrating Zonehaven with GEM and IMNS. Zonehaven, an early stage start-up when we acquired them last June, realized they needed a larger partner to fulfill their vision of a nationwide and eventually global build-out.

Genasys is making the investments to accelerate and augment Zonehaven's unique value proposition. We look in today's world and see opportunities for Zonehaven software to help safely manage evacuations and repopulations. As a part of our unified multichannel platform, Zonehaven is an important growth catalyst for our SaaS offering. The benefit from larger GEM, IMNS and Zonehaven SaaS contributions will be a shift in our revenue mix toward higher margin, recurring revenues and an expected increase in the company's market valuation.

GEM enterprise SaaS contracts opportunities, including major corporations, have been identified and are key targets for us in 2022. Additionally, we have identified opportunities in the United States and internationally with governments, cities, counties and enterprise as areas of SaaS business growth. Importantly, we are successfully competing against other solution providers. Almost all of our multiyear GEM contract awards were announced replaced an incumbent.

We believe we will continue to be successful in winning new enterprise and government business as competitive contracts come up for renewal. Our LRAD hardware business remains strong even as we continue to manage supply chain challenges. Our engineering and manufacturing teams have done great work in coming up with alternative solutions to meet LRAD product demand. In the first fiscal quarter, LRAD revenues were up 6%.

And we also announced international defense, wildlife preservation and U.S. Navy orders totaling $3.7 million. Demand for critical communication remains robust as government and private enterprise are highly motivated to procure solutions that are readily implemented to help keep their constituencies safe and informed. We are enthusiastic about the growing market opportunities given the strength of our integrated platform and the unique advantages, compatibility and capabilities of our offerings and our levels of active dialogue with an increasing number of potential customers.

Our team is growing, providing more sales and technical capabilities to deliver on our strategy to increase SaaS-based revenue. We are reaffirming our fiscal 2022 outlook for another year of record revenue. While revenue expectation remains unchanged from our prior earnings release, we remain cautious regarding the ongoing supply chain disruptions. Our expectations are primarily based on our current backlog, which was nearly $31 million as of December 31, 2021.

With our backlog, business pipeline and proactive measures we are taking to mitigate supply chain challenges, we are optimistic on delivering another record year of revenue. With that, I'll turn the call over to Dennis.

Dennis Klahn -- Chief Financial Officer

Thank you, Richard. Revenues for the fiscal 2022 first quarter were $10.7 million, up 33% from the prior year quarter. As compared to the same prior year period, LRAD revenue was $7.5 million, up 6%; IMNS revenue was $2.6 million, up 88%; and software revenue was $550,000, a decrease of $91,000 from the prior year quarter due to lower professional services performed in the current year, offset by higher recurring revenue. Gross profit margin was 45.9%, roughly in line with 46.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.

Gross margin percentage was slightly lower due to higher costs from increased software-related personnel added via acquisition and new hires in the prior year to support the growing SaaS business, offset by the higher gross profit from the higher hardware revenue in the fiscal 2022 first quarter. We continue to expect gross profit margin to be plus or minus 50% for the fiscal year. Operating expenses were $6.5 million, up from $4.4 million in the same period a year ago. The increase is largely due to a 42% increase in sales and marketing personnel over the prior year to support future revenue growth opportunities, including the opening of new sales offices; additional personnel, primarily engineers for product development; and amortization of intangibles related to the Zonehaven acquisition.

As you may recall from our last conference call, our fiscal 2022 business plan includes a year-over-year increase in operating expense. This increase is for strategic growth initiatives targeted at materially shifting our revenue mix toward a higher proportion of SaaS revenue and expanding our margins. Net loss for the quarter was $1.3 million or $0.04 per share, an increase from a net loss of $619,000 or $0.02 per share in the fiscal 2021 first quarter. The increase was largely due to the increase in operating expenses to support the growth initiatives I just discussed.

Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal 2022 first quarter was a loss of $412,000, compared with an adjusted EBITDA loss of $230,000 in the prior fiscal year first quarter. We believe this information and comparisons of adjusted EBITDA enhances the overall understanding and visibility of our business performance. To that effect, a reconciliation of our GAAP results to non-GAAP figures has been included in our earnings release. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $17.5 million as of December 31, 2021, compared with $20.7 million as of the prior year-end.

Working capital totaled $15.4 million as of December 31, 2021, compared with $18 million as of September 30, 2021. Cash used in operating activities for the first three months of fiscal year 2022 was $2.7 million. This compares to cash provided by operating activities of $1.3 million in the same period last year. The fluctuation primarily reflects an inventory increase of approximately $2.8 million to hedge against supply chain challenges.

We expect the inventory increase to convert to cash through customer shipments this fiscal year. The company has an authorized share buyback program for up to $5 million through December 31, 2022. During the three months ended December 31, 2021, 116,868 shares were repurchased for $441,000. We may, from time to time, repurchase shares in open market transactions.

However, investing in our business for future growth remains our primary objective for the allocation of capital. We would like to now open the call to Q&A. Operator?

Questions & Answers:


Operator

Thank you. [Operator instructions] Our first question comes from Brian Colley. Please state the question.

Brian Colley -- Stephens Inc. -- Analyst

Good evening, guys. Thanks for taking my questions. I was hoping you guys could just provide some color around the expected annual revenue contribution from the Slovenia countrywide win. And kind of when do you guys expect that to begin just -- expect to begin recognizing revenue from that contract?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

The revenue recognition will likely begin in our Q3. And we haven't put out in the public domain, Brian, the economics of it.

Brian Colley -- Stephens Inc. -- Analyst

OK. Got it. But in terms of, I guess, how it's structured, is it -- I think in the past, like maybe in Australia, a good portion of it was recognized as services revenue and then the remainder as license revenue. Any color on how it's structured?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Yeah. There was professional services required upfront. It's not nearly as complex as Australia, however. So where Australia took a full year, this is only expected to take a handful of months, and then it would turn over to a recurring revenue model.

Brian Colley -- Stephens Inc. -- Analyst

OK. Got it. That's helpful. And do you expect the Slovenia win to lead to additional follow-on business with companies and local governments within the country?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

I do. And I think it's throughout Europe, that opportunity exists.

Brian Colley -- Stephens Inc. -- Analyst

Got it. And then I was also curious, are there additional countries in the EU that have RFPs out right now? And do you feel pretty confident that you can win additional customers this year in the EU?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Yes, I do. And there's at least two countries with active RFPs right now and several right behind them. Brian, we have seen a good uptick in activity in the EU in terms of getting compliant to the directive. So there's an awful lot of RFI and beginning to be an awful lot of RFP activity going on.

Brian Colley -- Stephens Inc. -- Analyst

Got it. OK. In terms of the guidance, is it still your expectation for over 50% SaaS bookings this year in addition to the $9 million to $11 million increase in operating expenses?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Yeah. The opex is still on track with what we talked about before. The 50% -- our bookings for SaaS will substantially exceed 50%. It takes some time for that to ramp up as revenue.

But bookings and ARR are expected to go up substantially from what it was at the end of last year.

Dennis Klahn -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah. The 50% would be year-over-year growth in the software business.

Brian Colley -- Stephens Inc. -- Analyst

Great. OK. Got it. I'll leave it there.

Thanks for taking the questions, guys.

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Thank you.

Operator

OK. Our next question comes from Mike Latimore. Please state your question.

Mike Latimore -- Northland Securities -- Analyst

Congratulations on the results here. Just in terms of the software pipeline, is there one category that really stands out and should be the leader this year in the software bookings? Is it Zonehaven? Is it the EU stuff? Is it enterprise? Just what's sort of the biggest potential software driver this year?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

It's the SaaS offerings from Zonehaven and GEM. They have different cycles, Mike. The Zonehaven bookings have a much shorter lead time than the GEM ones do. So our pipeline is quite full and getting more full every day in both areas.

We still enjoy a no-competition kind of scenario with Zonehaven, whereas with GEM, there is competition. But I think those two, from a bookings and revenue perspective, will see substantial improvements this year. And as I mentioned a moment ago, the National Emergency Warning Systems being driven out of the EU, I think we'll see a substantial increase in activity there. I think the revenue -- recurring revenue from that -- those anticipated wins will more likely be in our 2023 than in our 2022.

Mike Latimore -- Northland Securities -- Analyst

OK. And then in terms of the Zonehaven business, well, I guess, first of all, you announced a number of wins recently. Were those all going to show up in March quarter bookings? Or were some of those booked in the first quarter?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

I don't know. What are you referencing, Mike? The one in my remarks?

Mike Latimore -- Northland Securities -- Analyst

No. Just -- you've announced Slovenia and Zonehaven wins and all that. And I'm just kind of curious, are those March quarter bookings? Or are those December quarter?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

No. For example, a couple of weeks ago, we released the Los Angeles Zonehaven award. That was a Q1 award. We needed to get the requisite authority and approvals to put it out in the public domain, which we did receive.

But the notification went out in Q2.

Mike Latimore -- Northland Securities -- Analyst

Yup. And then you gave a $7 million bookings number. Was that total bookings?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Yes.

Mike Latimore -- Northland Securities -- Analyst

OK. And any comment on what percent of that was kind of in the software category?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

We haven't put that out there, but it's a much bigger piece than it used to be. That's for sure.

Mike Latimore -- Northland Securities -- Analyst

Great. And then it sounds like you're guiding to gross margin being about the same this year as it was in fiscal '21. I think you said about 50%. And so do you feel good about that despite the supply chain constraint?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Well, we're managing through the supply chain constraints. We're seeing price growth and availability issues across the spectrum of parts. But so far, the team has kept up with it, and that's my expectation that they will continue to keep up with it. 50% gross margin, Dennis mentioned, and it's correct, it's historically what we're able to do.

And we still believe that 50% is, plus or minus is where we're going to end up.

Mike Latimore -- Northland Securities -- Analyst

Great. And then just last one on Slovenia. Did you win sort of everything there, meaning the government business -- the government front end, all the mobile operators and whatever feature set they needed, cell broadcast, location-based stuff? Did you get kind of the full suite there?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

No. The RFP was issued by the Ministry of Defense. Our obligation under the contract is for the front end and all of the location-based data. So we will be able to display where all the phones are in near real-time and how they're moving.

Mike Latimore -- Northland Securities -- Analyst

OK. Great. Thank you.

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

You're welcome.

Operator

OK. Our next question comes from Martin Yang. Please state your question.

Martin Yang -- Oppenheimer and Company -- Analyst

Hi, good afternoon, thanks for taking my question. First question is -- can you maybe give us a little more context on the Slovenia win? What was the competitive situation? And how much weight was placed on pricing versus technology?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Martin, all the usual suspects were there, including Everbridge. Pricing was not the principal award criteria; technical was.

Martin Yang -- Oppenheimer and Company -- Analyst

Got it. Thanks. And also looking into maybe Zonehaven and GEM pipeline and ongoing customer engagement activities, which would you say is a little stronger at the moment? And do you expect that -- how do you expect this fiscal year to shake out on the respective strength and customer interest on those software products?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Well, we've seen a significant uptick in interest for both Zonehaven and GEM. GEM has a longer cycle because of what I mentioned a moment ago. They're longer because of the competitive nature of them. When you get into Zonehaven, there's a recognized urgency to get the systems in place to the counties that we have sold them in.

And that urgency amps up more as we enter fire season, which now appears to be like 12 months out of the year in California. You all saw about the New Year's Eve fire in Colorado that took down thousands of homes in less than 24-hour period. And that -- fortunately, there was a limited loss of life there. But given circumstances be just a little bit different, albeit at night or when people weren't home, there could have been a much more significant loss of life.

And that kind of an event really shines a light on the utility and the need for Zonehaven. So we see a big uptick in -- every time we've got events like that that happen.

Martin Yang -- Oppenheimer and Company -- Analyst

Got it. Thank you. A final question on opex for the year. Given that maybe Omicron and COVID may extend the reopening pace, do you think that the investment -- do you still expect the same pace of your opex investments for this year?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Yes.

Martin Yang -- Oppenheimer and Company -- Analyst

Got it. Thank you.

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

You're welcome.

Operator

OK. Our next question comes from Aman Gulani. Please state your question.

Aman Gulani -- B.Riley Financial -- Analyst

Thanks for taking my question here, gentlemen. And I just had one question, most of my questions have been answered. But I wanted to ask about your investment in your SaaS offerings. Is that largely going to be going to like expanding headcount for your engineers? Or is it more on the sales side?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Both. We saw a 40-something percent increase -- 42% increase in engineering in our fiscal 2021, sales and marketing. What was it, engineering? It's in the 40s as well. So rather significant like a 40% to 45% increase in both sales and marketing and engineering, '21 to '22.

And that growth will continue in this fiscal year.

Aman Gulani -- B.Riley Financial -- Analyst

OK. Thank you. That's all I have.

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

OK. Thank you.

Operator

Our next question comes from Ed Woo. Please state your question.

Ed Woo -- Ascendiant Capital Markets -- Analyst

Yeah. Congratulations on the quarter. My question is on M&A opportunities. You guys did a number of acquisitions in the past year.

Are you guys still opportunistic out there?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Yes.

Ed Woo -- Ascendiant Capital Markets -- Analyst

And how is the M&A environment?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

It's up and down. But it's -- as you know, we're always active in looking valuations have actually come down a bit, which makes them more affordable, which is good. But yes, they're an important part of our growth levers. And we'll continue to be opportunistic with additional M&A.

Ed Woo -- Ascendiant Capital Markets -- Analyst

Great. Is there any particular focus, either international or technology or customer reach that you're looking at? Or is it just whatever opportunistic will come by?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

It's generally in the critical communication areas, software and recurring revenue focus, SaaS-focused.

Ed Woo -- Ascendiant Capital Markets -- Analyst

Great. Well, thank you and good luck.

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Thank you.

Operator

Our next question comes from Tucker Andersen. Please state your question.

Tucker Andersen -- Above All Advisors -- Analyst

Yes. First, let me add my congratulations on the Slovenia win. And a lot of my questions have been answered, but I do have a couple. With regard to the supply chain disruptions, do most of them relate to areas where semiconductors are in short supply? Or are there other materials besides that that you're seeing supply chain problems with?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

It's beyond just microcircuits. Raw materials, resins, steel. Even plywood for a while was hard to come by. So it covers the gamut.

It's -- nothing's immune to it right now.

Tucker Andersen -- Above All Advisors -- Analyst

Which implies that it's likely to continue for a while. The other question is with regard to labor --

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Absolutely correct. That is correct. There's no signs yet for that tailing off.

Tucker Andersen -- Above All Advisors -- Analyst

Yeah. The other question is with regard to labor availability and compensation cost pressures. Could you sort of talk what you're seeing there?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Labor availability, we've been very fortunate, both in the U.S., Canada and in Spain, particularly Spain, we've substantially increased the head count over there. Here in the U.S., it's been sales and marketing, mainly growth. And we've been able to attract the necessary folks we needed to do the job we're trying to do. And we continue to add to the sales force here in the United States.

So there is upward pressure on the salaries, the compensation, for sure. And that extends to the hourly folks building hardware to the engineers, manufacturing, hardware and software and sort of across the board.

Tucker Andersen -- Above All Advisors -- Analyst

Well, once again, congratulations and thank you very much.

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Thank you.

Operator

OK. Our next question comes from [Inaudible]. Please state your question.

Unknown speaker

Thank you for taking my call. Most of my questions have been answered. Richard, do you feel that you guys have enough cash?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Yeah. We have plenty of cash, Paul, our working capital. If you look at our cash consumption in Q1, it was 2.7, I think, in total from an operating basis. And it's all in inventory.

And that was a tactic. I think I even announced we would likely be doing things like that in the last conference call. But in order for us to hit our revenue, we need to secure the material as soon as it's made available. And that's -- that was the consumption of cash for Q1.

And that, as you know, is a temporary thing. It will -- as Dennis mentioned in his remarks, turns to cash when we ship the product.

Unknown speaker

As long as I've known, Q1 has always been a weaker quarter, but this one seems to be getting up there, but I was just curious. I like more cash. OK. Thank you.

Congrats on the quarter. I hope we're going to have a great year.

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Thank you.

Operator

OK. And our final question is from Brian Colley. Please state your question.

Brian Colley -- Stephens Inc. -- Analyst

Thanks for taking the follow-up here. I was curious on the decline in software revenue. What drove the year-over-year step-down in services revenue? Was it just a contract ending and not renewing? Or was there kind of higher onetime --

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Yes, there was that. So a year ago, we had a substantial development activity for Australia. Australia went live on September of last year. So that's nonrecurring completed, and now it's into a recurring revenue model.

Dennis Klahn -- Chief Financial Officer

And we had about a year's worth of development work. I think it may have been 10 months of development work that started approximately October 1 of 2020, so the first month or so of our fiscal '21. And as Richard said, it went live on September 1. So there was quite a bit.

We had two different cell carriers that we were doing the work for. So that's the reason for the decrease in software revenue.

Brian Colley -- Stephens Inc. -- Analyst

OK. Got it. I mean would it be your expectation for that -- for software revenue to increase sequentially moving forward for the rest of this year?

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Yeah. So it will follow our bookings, Brian. So you keep looking at press releases, we'll try to announce all wins. We've seen a substantial uptick in RFPs and a substantial uptick in SaaS bookings.

Brian Colley -- Stephens Inc. -- Analyst

Got it. OK. Thanks for the follow-ups.

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

You're welcome.

Operator

OK. Richard, I'll turn it back over to you for closing remarks.

Richard Danforth -- Chief Executive Officer

Dennis will handle those.

Dennis Klahn -- Chief Financial Officer

We regularly discuss our business at investor conferences throughout the year. This week, we'll be participating in the Best Ideas Virtual Investor Conference. Additional investor conference presentations are planned throughout this fiscal year. Thank you for participating in today's call.

We look forward to speaking with you again next quarter when we report fiscal second quarter 2022 results.
