THIRD QUARTER 2020 HIGHLIGHTS (ALL FIGURES ARE IN US$)

  • Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $6.6 million compared to $5.9 million for the same period in 2019, an increase of 12%. The increase in revenues was primarily attributed to the increase in activity of existing customers and the Company penetrating into verticals that have benefitted from the COVID-19 pandemic, such as E-commerce and FinTech.
    As a result of the foregoing, quarter-over-quarter revenue growth was at 17%.
  • Cost of sales and services for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $4.6 million, representing an increase of approximately 15% compared to the same period in 2019. The increase was primarily attributed to the increase in revenues.
  • Gross profit margin (revenue less cost of sales and services) of 31% compared to 32% for the same period in 2019. The decrease in gross margin was primarily attributable to increase in the sale of services that have lower margins relative to the other products and services offered by the Company.
  • Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $1.5 million compared to net loss of $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in net loss was primarily attributed to the expenses incurred during 2019 related to mark-to-market adjustment of convertible debt securities that took place immediately prior to the closing of the qualifying transaction.
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $(850) thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $(380) thousand for the same period in 2019. The increase in the operating losses for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily attributed to the Company’s growth plan causing an increase in research & development expenses due to the Company’s stages of developing the Company’s new Self-serve SaaS platform.
  • As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to $3 million compared to $5.9 million for the same period in 2019.

Non-IFRS 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 financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. This 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 share-based compensation and is a measure of a company’s operating performance. Essentially, it is 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.
