Developments in the Quarter

• Revenue of $1.70 million up 36% from $1.25 million in the three month period ended June 30, 2020.

• Earnings before income taxes were $281 thousand up 64% from $172 thousand in the three month period ended June 30, 2020.

• Sales bookings for the quarter were $1.71 million up 41% from $1.21 million in the three month period ended June 30, 2020.

• Adjusted EBITDA of $320 thousand up 43% from $224 thousand in the three months ended June 30, 2020.

“We were pleased to see strong sales bookings and revenue in the quarter. We saw the completion of several projects signed in 2019 and early 2020 that were delayed due to the pandemic. While on a macroeconomic level there remains uncertainty, demand for senior living units was up in the three months ended June 30, 2021. Occupancy remained low reflecting greater supply rather than lower demand as construction projects started prior to the pandemic were completed. Capitalizing on our strong corporate partnerships we also closed $1.71 million in new sales bookings in the quarter,” stated Troy Griffiths, President and CEO of Vigil Health Solutions Inc.

Financial Results

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was $1.70 million up 36% from $1.25 million in the three month period ended June 30, 2020. Project revenue from new and existing customers made up 58% of total revenue, compared to 45% in the three month period ended June 30, 2020. Revenue included the completion of some longer running projects signed prior to the pandemic.

Sales bookings for the quarter were $1.71 million up 41% from $1.21 million in the three month period ended June 30, 2020. There were 18 project sales with an average value of $57 thousand compared to 9 project sales with an average value of $62 thousand in the period ending June 30, 2020. The majority of sales reflected repeat business from established corporate clients.

At June 30, 2021, Vigil had a backlog of approximately $3.12 million (including $1.68 million in deposits and progress billings, recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet) compared to approximately $3.81 million (including $1.69 million in deposits and progress billings, recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet) at June 30, 2020. Vigil’s backlog included 43 projects at varying stages of installation and progress billing with an average size of $73 thousand compared to 36 projects with an average size of $106 thousand at June 30, 2020. The Company’s backlog includes all contracts signed including those in progress but not completed.

The gross margin percentage for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was 51% compared to 54% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The lower margins reflect the product mix. Project installations include lower margin components such as travel. One-off follow on sales to existing customers are generally higher margin, these include service and maintenance billings and replacement products including wireless devices and communication equipment. There were a greater number of project installations relative to follow on sales in the current period reducing gross margin.

Operating expenditures for the three months ended June 30, 2021, were $580 thousand up 26% from $462 thousand for the period ended June 30, 2020. The increase reflects the decline in Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy payments, recorded as a reduction in payroll expense, from $194 thousand in the three month period ended June 30, 2020, to $44 thousand in the current period.

Earnings before income taxes were $281 thousand compared to $172 thousand in the three month period ended June 30, 2020. The earnings reflect the increased revenue and the $44 thousand CEWS subsidy and $36 thousand in research and development funding. Net earnings and comprehensive income were $258 thousand or $0.014 per share compared to $121 thousand, or $0.007 per share for the three month period ended June 30, 2020.

Non-IFRS Measure

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we are disclosing Adjusted EBITDA, a non-IFRS financial measure, as a supplementary indicator of operating performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before, interest excluding interest relating to right of use asset for lease on the Company’s head office, income taxes, amortization excluding amortization of right of use asset for the lease on the Company’s head office, stock based compensation and currency gains or losses including derivative foreign exchange differences. We are presenting the non-IFRS financial measure in our filings because we use it internally to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and to evaluate our performance and because we believe that our current and potential investors and analysts use the measure to assess current and future operating results and to make investment decisions. It is a non-IFRS measure, may not be comparable to other companies and it is not intended as a substitute for IFRS measures.
