Track Group Reports 1st Quarter Fiscal 2023 Financial Results
NAPERVILLE, Ill., Feb. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Track Group, Inc. (OTCQX: TRCK), a global leader in offender tracking and monitoring services, today announced financial results for its fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022 ("Q1 FY23"). In Q1 FY23, the Company posted (i) total revenue of $8.9 Million ("M"), a decrease of approximately 8% over total revenue of $9.6M for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 ("Q1 FY22"); (ii) Q1 FY23 operating loss of ($0.1M) compared to Q1 FY22 operating income of $0.6M; and (iii) net income attributable to common shareholders of just over $0.0M in Q1 FY23 compared to a net loss attributable to common shareholders of ($0.3M) in Q1 FY22.
"The quarter ended December 31, 2022, was, as expected, challenging given the allocation of newly manufactured devices to replace the remaining 3G network devices in the field. With the phase out of 3G behind the Company, and our infrastructure reinvestment in place, we expect to implement new programs in 2023 which will enable the Company to grow both revenue and operating income compared to FY22," said Derek Cassell, Track Group's CEO.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
- Total Q1 FY23 revenue of $8.9M was down 8% compared to Q1 FY22 revenue of $9.6M. The drop in revenue was caused by allocation of most newly manufactured LTE devices to replace remaining 3G devices in the U.S., less activity at customers in Illinois, California, Bahamas and Canada partially offset by increases in revenue for customers in Saudi Arabia, Nevada and Panama.
- Gross profit of $4.2M in Q1 FY23 was down approximately 13% compared to Q1 FY22 gross profit of $4.8M due to a decline in revenue of approximately $0.7M and higher device repair and server costs partially offset by lower depreciation and amortization expense and reduced monitoring center costs.
- An Operating loss in Q1 FY23 of ($0.1M) compared to operating income of $0.6M in Q1 FY22. The decline of approximately $0.7M in operating income in Q1 FY23 is attributable to the decline in gross profit and an increase of approximately 3% in operating expenses.
- Adjusted EBITDA for Q1 FY23 of $1.2M, compared to $2.2M for Q1 FY22 due to the drop in revenue, gross profit and the increase in certain operating expenses. Adjusted EBITDA in Q1 FY23 as a percentage of revenue declined to 13.3%, compared to 22.9% for Q1 FY22 for the same reasons.
- Cash balance of $5.5M for Q1 FY23, compared to $5.3M at September 30, 2022. The modest increase in cash position was due to an increase in net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $2.3M offset by purchases of monitoring equipment and the repayment of debts.
- Net income attributable to shareholders in Q1 FY23 was just over $0.0M compared to a net loss of attributable to shareholders of ($0.3M) in Q1 FY22, a change principally attributable to a decline in operating income offset by currency exchange gains, lower net interest expense and a reduction in tax expense.
Business Outlook
Despite the short-term challenges created by supply chain delays, the Coronavirus and the phase out of 3G communication networks in the U.S., Track Group remains confident that our continued focus on strategic adaptation, and growth, which evidenced success in FY21, will allow us to be well-positioned for a return to growth in FY23. As a result, the Company's preliminary outlook for FY23 remains as follows:
