Fourth quarter 2015 revenue was $512 million, an increase of 16%, or $72 million, compared to $440 million for the comparable period in 2014. For the 2015 fiscal year total revenues were $1,838 million, an increase of 10%, or $169 million, compared to $1,669 million for the comparable period in 2014. The increase for both the three and twelve month periods compared to the same periods in the prior year is attributable to growth from acquisitions as the Company experienced negative organic growth of 1% and 3% respectively. For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015, the appreciation of the US dollar against most other major currencies in which the Company transacts business resulted in an approximate 5% and 6% respective reduction in the Company's organic growth rate compared to the comparable periods of 2014. The negative impact of foreign exchange on the Company's Q4 organic growth rate was partially offset by an increase in hardware sales recorded in our public sector relating to various large projects in our transit vertical. Hardware revenue is primarily recognized on delivery and as such can result in temporary spikes in revenue. Organic growth in Q4 was positive 1% after adjusting for both factors.
Adjusted EBITA for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $133 million, a 28% increase compared to the prior year's fourth quarter Adjusted EBITA of $104 million.

Adjusted EBITA per share on a diluted basis for the 2015 fiscal year increased 28% to $21.02, compared to $16.43 for the 2014 fiscal year.
Adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $118 million, compared to the prior year's fourth quarter Adjusted net income of $87 million, a 36% increase. Fourth quarter 2015 Adjusted net income per share on a diluted basis increased 36% to $5.55 compared to $4.09 for the prior year's fourth quarter. Adjusted net income for the 2015 fiscal year was $371 million, an increase of 35% over the 2014 fiscal year Adjusted net income of $274 million. Adjusted net income per share on a diluted basis for the 2015 fiscal year increased 35% to $17.51, compared to $12.94 for the 2014 fiscal year.
Net income for the fourth quarter 2015 was $66 million compared to the prior year's fourth quarter net income of $39 million.

A number of factors could cause actual results to vary significantly from the results discussed in the forward looking statements.

Non-IFRS Measures
The term "Adjusted EBITA" refers to net income before adjusting for finance and other income, bargain purchase gain, finance costs, income taxes, share in net income or loss of equity investees, impairment of non-financial assets, amortization, TSS membership liability revaluation charge, and foreign exchange gain or loss. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITA is useful supplemental information as it provides an indication of the results generated by the Company's main business activities prior to taking into consideration how those activities are financed and taxed and also prior to taking into consideration intangible asset amortization and the other items listed above. "Adjusted EBITA margin" refers to the percentage that Adjusted EBITA for any period represents as a portion of total revenue for that period. Previously the Company has reported "Adjusted EBITDA" in certain financial disclosures, but has determined that Adjusted EBITA is a more meaningful measure going forward. Adjusted EBITDA refers to Adjusted EBITA as defined above then further excludes depreciation. The Company uses depreciation as a proxy for the cash flows used to purchase property and equipment required to support the Company's main business activities. As such, the Company believes Adjusted EBITA is a more useful measure then Adjusted EBITDA.
"Adjusted net income" means net income adjusted for non-cash expenses (income) such as amortization of intangible assets, deferred income taxes, the TSS membership liability revaluation charge, and certain other expenses (income), and excludes the portion of the adjusted net income of Total Specific Solutions (TSS) B.V. ("TSS") attributable to the minority owners of TSS. The Company believes that Adjusted net income is useful supplemental information as it provides an indication of the results generated by the Company's main business activities prior to taking into consideration amortization of intangible assets, deferred income taxes, the TSS membership liability revaluation charge, and certain other non-cash expenses (income) incurred or recognized by the Company from time to time, and adjusts for the portion of TSS' Adjusted net income not attributable to shareholders of Constellation. "Adjusted net income margin" refers to the percentage that Adjusted net income for any period represents as a portion of total revenue for that period.
Adjusted EBITA and Adjusted net income are not recognized measures under IFRS and, accordingly, readers are cautioned that Adjusted EBITA and Adjusted net income should not be construed as alternatives to net income determined in accordance with IFRS. The Company's method of calculating Adjusted EBITA and Adjusted net income may differ from other issuers and, accordingly, Adjusted EBITA and Adjusted net income may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Adjusted EBITA includes 100% of the Adjusted EBITA of TSS.
