Vaso Corporation Announces Financial Results for First Quarter 2022

Revenue and Profitability Continued to Improve Year-over-year

PLAINVIEW, NY / ACCESSWIRE / May 16, 2022 / Vaso Corporation ("Vaso") (OTC PINK:VASO) today reported its operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

"For first quarter of 2022, the Company recorded a total revenue of $17.0 million, up by 3.0% from $16.5 million for the same quarter in the prior year. Quarterly gross profit reached $9.8 million, up by 14.1% year-over-year, as gross profit margin also increased significantly. Operating loss for the quarter decreased by 34.3% year-over-year to $0.4 million, making it the best first quarter in the Company's recent history," commented Dr. Jun Ma, President and Chief Executive Officer of Vaso Corporation. "Again, due to the cyclic nature of our businesses, we often incur losses in the beginning quarters of the year and record high revenue and profit in the later quarters, especially the fourth quarter. Therefore, we are excited to see a strong head start for the fiscal year of 2022."

"The Company continues to maintain a strong balance sheet as well. Specifically, total deferred revenue as of March 31, 2022 reached a historical high of $27.0 million, representing an $8.5 million increase from March 31, 2021; as of May 6, 2022, cash and cash equivalents were $13.1 million. All these together provide a robust stage for continued profitability for the Company in 2022," concluded Dr. Ma.

Financial Results for Three Months Ended March 31, 2022

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, revenue increased by 3.0% to $17.0 million from $16.5 million for the same period of 2021, due primarily to the increase of $2.0 million, or 41.9%, in revenue in our professional sales service segment as the result of higher equipment deliveries and a higher average commission rate during the quarter. Revenue in our IT segment decreased by $1.3 million, or 11.1%, in the first quarter 2022 when compared to the same quarter of 2021, due to lower revenue in the NetWolves business; and our equipment segment revenue decreased by $212 thousand, or 34.7%, when compared to the first quarter of 2021, principally due to lower equipment deliveries in our China operations as affected by COVID-19 lockdowns in the country.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2022 increased by $1.2 million, or 14.1%, to $9.8 million, compared with a gross profit of $8.6 million for the same quarter of 2021. This increase was primarily the result of the increase in revenue in the professional sales service segment.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the first quarter of 2022 increased by $1.0 million, or 11.7%, to $10.0 million, compared to the first quarter of 2021. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in the costs of annual national sales meeting, which was held virtually last year, as well as travel and personnel costs. These meeting and travel costs were significantly lower in 2021 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $354 thousand, compared to an operating loss of $539 thousand in the first quarter 2021, representing an improvement of $185 thousand, or 34.3%, resulting from the increase in gross profit, partially offset by the increase in SG&A costs.

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $344 thousand, a significant improvement over the loss of $643 thousand for the first quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation) improved to $147 thousand for the quarter, compared to $101 thousand in the first quarter of 2021.

Net cash used in operating activities were $625 thousand for the first quarter 2022. compared to net cash provided from operations of $5.5 million during the first quarter of 2021. The change was mainly due to the late arrival of a large payment the Company has now received in April 2022. As of May 6, 2022, the Company's net cash was approximately $13.1 million.
