2021 Operating and Financial Highlights

  • Revenue of $0.7 million, which was a year-over-year decrease of 34%. Note that the 2020 financial statements included the Company's last pre-pandemic quarter (Q1-2020) which was its best quarter, recording revenues of $0.6 million. Putting aside the results attained in Q1-2020, and solely for analysis purpose, the Company showed an increase of revenue of 9% in the last 9 months of 2021 compared to the last 9 months of 2020;
  • Operating Costs of $4.3 million, slightly increased of 4% year-over-year;
  • Net Loss of $5.0 million increased by 45% year-over-year which is attributable to the decrease in revenue explained above and the increase of $0.8 million in non-cash financial expenses;

  • Proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt and convertible debentures for a cash consideration of $2.3 million;
  • Cash and cash equivalents of $0.9 million as of December 31, 2021.

"This quarter our focus is to complete our acquisition of Avenida+ and to accelerate the monetization of opportunities that were postponed and halted at the beginning of the pandemic. Our robust pipeline of deals is the best it has ever been and, by offering a POC software solution, we continue to work toward reducing the sales cycle and thus accelerate the monetizing of our platform's portfolio of solutions," said Marcel Vienneau, CEO of Mobi724.

Outlook

Mobi724's pay for performance business model is especially relevant in today's environment, as business sectors across the global adopt digital services to focus on efficiency and create a frictionless and all-digital consumer experience.

The Company is focused on the following near-term priorities:

  • Completing the acquisition of Avenida+
  • Begin to monetize opportunities that were postponed and halted at the beginning of COVID;
  • Continue to position the Company as the vendor-of-choice within the highly fragmented Latam market;
  • Leverage a robust sales pipeline to advance business relationships with large payment processing networks in Latam in order to expand access to real-time visibility on purchase transactions, to acquire new clients, to accelerate revenues and to add barriers to entry for our competitors;
  • Building a pipeline across the region by leveraging multiple channels, including Mobi724's growing network of alliances, partners, and subsidiaries.

This press release should be read in conjunction with the Company's 2021 Management Discussion and Analysis and 2021 Consolidated Financial Statements. These documents and additional information can be accessed under Mobi724's company profile on www.sedar.com.
