Management Commentary

Amit Bohensky, Chairman of Zoomd Technologies, stated, “During the third quarter we made tremendous strides in improving our margins and bottom line, growing our Adjusted EBITDA to $575,000 versus $15,000 in last year’s period and achieved positive cash flow from operating activities for the first time in 5 consecutive quarters. The acceleration in probability is the direct result of the implementation of our restructuring initiatives and cost saving measures, which we initially disclosed in June. These initiatives were designed to optimize our operations and financial performance. As part of this process, we discontinued various unprofitable areas of our business, resulting in operating expenses decreasing by 36% in the third quarter. We will channel our resources towards activities and solutions that have demonstrated profitability, enabling us to better position ourselves competitively in the current market

We expanded our gross margins by approximately 900 basis points during the third quarter, largely as the result of our business transitioning away from cryptocurrency customers which carried lower margins. In addition, we discontinued some non-profitable areas of our business. While these items contributed to our revenue decline of 27% in the quarter, gross profit dollars only declined by 8%.

We remain cautious yet optimistic regarding the advertising technology space. Historically, companies tend to cut their advertising budgets during periods of economic uncertainty as a cost-saving measure. However, when the business environment becomes more stable and secure, companies often increase their advertising investment to regain market share.”

 

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights

  • Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023, were $7.1 million, a 27% decline relative to 3Q22. Revenues continued to be negatively affected by the global slowdown, in particular the areas of cryptocurrencies. We continue to diversify our business by increasing our exposure to sectors such as E-commerce, iGaming, transportation, and consumer product goods as well as offering a wider range of performance based products and services. Furthermore, our decision to discontinue unprofitable areas, including our publishers’ monetization business, led to a decline in revenue. Excluding both Cryptocurrency clients and non profitable operations clients that have been discontinued revenue in 3Q23 have risen in comparison to the corresponding period last year.
  • Gross profit margin was 40% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, versus 31% for the same period last year. The 900 basis point increase was due to lower revenues from the cryptocurrency customers, which carry lower margins. In addition, the company exited certain non profitable areas of its business.
  • Research and Development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023, were $0.7M, a 49% decrease relative to Q3 2022. Selling, General and Administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023, were $2.2M, a 30% decrease relative to Q3 2022. This decline in expenses was mainly the result of our cost savings restructuring initiatives, mainly reflect the impact of 40% reduction in headcount.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was $575,000 as compared with Adjusted EBITDA of $15,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, reflecting cost savings initiatives.
  • Operating loss was $0.08M for Q3 2023, compared to an operating loss of $1.5M in Q3 2022, reflecting the cost savings initiatives.
  • Net cash of $0.2M was generated from operating activities in 3Q23, reflecting positive cash generation from operating activities for the first time in 5 consecutive quarters. As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to $1.5 million, and no long-term debt.

CAUTION REGARDING NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES

This press release refers to “Adjusted EBITDA” which is a non-IFRS financial measure that does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. The Company’s presentation of this preliminary financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. This preliminary financial measure is intended to provide additional information to investors concerning the Company’s estimated results. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted for share-based payments and one-time non-operating expenses and is a measure of a company’s operating performance. Essentially, it’s a way to evaluate a company’s performance without having to factor in financing decisions, accounting decisions or tax environments.

 

Management uses this non-IFRS measure as a key metric in the evaluation of the Company’s performance and the consolidated financial results. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in their assessment of the operating performance and the valuation of the Company. However, non-IFRS financial measures are not prepared in accordance with IFRS, and the information is not necessarily comparable to other companies and should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and operating profit is available in Zoomd’s MD&A located on the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com which is incorporated by reference into this press release.
