Press Release

  • Over the past year, the Company has diversified its customer industries to areas such as fintech, gaming, entertainment, and E-commerce.

  • Achieved record positive Adjusted EBITDA of $1.3M during the quarter, the highest level since becoming a reporting issuer.[1]

VANCOUVER, British ColumbiaAugust 24, 2021 – Zoomd Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: ZOMD) (OTC: ZMDTF) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Zoomd Ltd. (collectively, “Zoomd” or the “Company”), the marketing tech (MarTech) user-acquisition and engagement platform, today reported its financial results for the three month ended June 30, 2021. The financial statements and MD&A are available on SEDAR under the Company’s profile.

 

[1] “Adjusted EBITDA” is a NON-IFRS financial measure. See “Caution Regarding Non-IFRS Financial Measures”.

Management Commentary

The Company achieved record revenues in 2Q21 as the hard work of diversifying its client base, both in sectors and geographies, is beginning to bear fruit.  In addition, we are seeing a surge in budgets from our legacy clients, as the post-pandemic economic recovery continues. Furthermore, we continue to focus on profitable clients and continued growth.

 

“Our strong revenue performance in the second quarter demonstrates our ability to grow across new sectors and geographies” said Ofer Eitan, Zoomd’s CEO, adding “in 2021 we have been successful in acquiring new customers in growing industries such as fintech and E-commerce. In a relatively short amount of time, many of these clients have increased their user acquisition budgets with us as they have witnessed impressive returns on their investment.  In addition, our recent acquisition of Performance Revenues has thus far proven successful, as we are seeing a robust momentum in the MarTech industry as a whole and Zoomd specifically, driven by the post-pandemic recovery and the growth of new and burgeoning industries.”

Self-Serve PRODUCTS update

During Q1 2021, Zoomd announced the official soft launch of its self-serve products including its DSP (Demand Side Platform), Performance model and premium sources (SaaS) product. The SaaS product waslaunched with dedicated design partners and is our main self-serve product that reflects our forward-looking vision to offer advertisers the only user acquisition software solution they will need. During the 2nd half of 2021, we expect to continue the rollout of these products as planned.

Zoomd’s self-serve products are targeted to provide an advertiser with a platform that uses artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, prediction and automation technology as the basis for all user acquisition actions the advertiser needs. The Company believes that these products will save its advertising customers money, time and resources in the ad buying and optimization process, by uniting all the user’s advertising campaigns under a single central dashboard, allocate budget and provide data abilities that unit all user acquisition capabilities across various premium digital channels.

Acquisition of Performance Revenues

On February 9, 2021, Zoomd acquired Performance Revenues, a leading international mobile marketing and influencer company, providing a variety of performance-based marketing solutions led by a team of professional marketers. Zoomd has thus far been successful in growing the budgets of the clients acquired through this acquisition, most notable being Sony Entertainment.

SECOND-QUARTER 2021 HIGHLIGHTS (ALL FIGURES ARE IN THOUSANDS USD)

  • For the three months ended June 30, 2021, revenues were $11,157, as compared to $5,676 for the three months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of approximately 97% year-over-year. The increase in revenues is primarily a result onboarding of new clients in recent months, growing existing accounts and the Company’s expansion into growth geographies such as Latin America and Asia. In addition, deployment of new services and features, combined with the integration of our latest acquisition, has generated strong revenue growth during the quarter.
  • The gross profit margin was 33% for the three months ended June 30, 2021, versus 31% for the same period last year. The improvement in the gross profit margin was primarily attributable to the Company’s decision to disengage from less profitable customers and general client base diversification.
  • Research and Development (R&D) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 decreased 37% YOY, primarily reflecting the capitalization of software development costs.
  • Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 were $2.03 million, a 28% increase YOY, primarily reflecting the expenses incurred as a result of the Performance Revenues acquisition, as well as increased marketing expenses in line with Company’s growth objectives.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $1.32M as compared with negative Adjusted EBITDA loss of ($0.76M) for the three months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $2.08M. The improvement in the Adjusted EBITDA is primarily attributed to the increase in revenue and the improvement in the gross profit margin.

 

The following table presents a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Operating Gain (Loss) for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

Three months ended
June 30, 2021 June 30, 2020
Operating gain/(loss) 621 (1,440)
Depreciation and amortization 653 613
EBITDA 1,274 (827)
Adjustment:
Cost of share-based payments 44 67
Adjusted EBITDA 1,318 (760)

 

  • As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to $2 million, and no debt.

2021 Growth Expectations (ALL FIGURES ARE IN USD)

The Company is maintaining its revenue outlook of $33 million to $36 million for the year ending December 31, 2021, representing growth of 30% to 40% YOY. This outlook reflects the following assumptions which management believes are reasonable:

  • Organic Growth – Management estimates that at least $4 million or approximately 40% of the revenue growth for the year ending December 31, 2021 to be caused primarily from the existing business model where the key drivers are:
    • New customers acquired primarily during the second half of 2020 through to the beginning of the year 2021, which are expected to increase their marketing budgets as they become more familiar with the platform, the services and the results.
    • New customers acquired also by the newly launched Self-Served products: Performance, Premium channels, and DSP.
    • Post-COVID online advertising demand surge, especially from sectors that were shut down during the height of the pandemic and are beginning to reopen, such as sports.
    • Geographical expansion in India, East Europe, the Philippines, and Japan announced earlier this year.
  • Mergers and Acquisitions – Management estimates that up to $6 million or 60% of the revenue growth for the year ending December 31, 2021 to be caused primarily as a result of acquisitions of carefully selected target companies that in line with the Company’s business, strategy, and vision. The Company’s acquisition of “Performance Revenues” that was announced on February 10, 2021 already factors into the above expectation as management believes it will bear a positive impact on its revenue growth in 2021.

 

The above forward-looking financial information was approved by the Company in connection with the filing of the MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Zoomd’s total revenue improved in Q4 19′ relative to Q3 19′ as a result of Zoomd’s efforts during the period to acquire new clients and generate more revenue from existing clients. Total revenue remained in line with Q4 18′ primarily due to the fact that revenue from one of Zoomd’s top 10 clients decreased relative to Q4 19′ which offset some of the new revenue generated from the newly acquired clients in Q4 19′.

Gross profit margins were consistent in Q4 19′ with the first nine months of 2019 and lower than Q4 18′. The decrease in gross profit margins in Q4 19′, as compared with Q4 18′, was primarily due to lower profitability associated with the new clients acquired in 2019.

During 2019, Zoomd continued its plans of global expansion that resulted in increases in its workforce, marketing and public relations related expenses. Compared with Q3 19′, Zoomd’s expenses increased in line with the noted expansion. Compared with Q4 18′, expenses were flat, but when excluding the one-time bonuses that were paid in Q4 18′, expenses increased, in line with the expansion plan.

“We are pleased to see that we were able to implement our strategy over the last quarter,” says Zoomd CEO and co-founder Ofer Eitan. “We continued our plans of global growth, increases in HR and marketing expenses. Looking forward to increase market share through next year, we are building our AI proprietary technology to the level of creating absolute optimal, automated, media buying funnel from all digital media channels, targeting user acquisition first.”

CAUTION REGARDING Financial Estimates

The financial estimates set forth above are based on an initial review of the Company’s operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 and are subject to change. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co. (Deloitte Member Firm), has not audited, reviewed or performed any procedures with respect to the accompanying financial estimates and other data, and accordingly does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.

CAUTION REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This press release refers to “Adjusted EBITDA” which is a non-GAAP and non-IFRS financial measure that does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP or 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 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. The following table (all in $US thousands) shows the Company’s Non-IFRS measure (Adjusted EBITDA) reconciled to operating profit for the indicated periods:

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 GAAP or 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 GAAP or IFRS. The references in this press release to Adjusted EBITDA are forward-looking information about prospective financial performance and readers are cautioned that this information may not be appropriate for other purposes.
