$5 Million Capital Raise Strengthens Balance Sheet

TORONTO & BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- BIONIK Laboratories Corp. (OTCQB:BNKL), a robotics company focused on providing rehabilitation and assistive technology solutions to individuals with neurological and mobility challenges from hospital to home, today reported financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, ended September 30, 2021.

Second Quarter FY 2022 and Recent Corporate Highlights

• Completed capital raise totaling $5 million in July 2021, plus the consolidation of $3.3 million in debt.
• Significant growth in key performance indicators - such as patient sessions, session duration, patient treatment time, and repetitions of InMotion® technologies - was reported since the launch of the InMotion Connect™ proprietary data platform last year. This includes a 72% increase in patient sessions on InMotion® robotic devices nationwide.
• BIONIK’s sales pipeline has begun to expand with the lifting of COVID-related restrictions around the country enabling increased customer engagement.
• Entered into an agreement to begin the second phase of the data pipeline build out with BIONIK’s Google-Cloud Platform partner, BitStrapped.
• Revenue was $0.2 million in the current period versus $0.3 million in the second quarter of last fiscal year, a 22% decrease primarily due to product and distributor sales mixes.
• On a U.S. GAAP basis, total operating expenses decreased nearly $0.6 million, or 33%, primarily driven by lower general and administrative and R&D expenses, offset by higher sales and marketing expenses.

Rich Russo, Chief Financial Officer and Interim Chief Executive Officer, commented, “In the fiscal second quarter, BIONIK continued to advance on many fronts. We’ve been building a strong pipeline that reflects a re-start of our sales and marketing programs as well as some creative new financing solutions designed to lessen the impact of a long sales cycle. We’ve also begun to expand our relationship with BitStrapped to further develop our machine learning and artificial intelligence capabilities. We completed a capital raise in July, which added $5 million in new capital to our balance sheet. BIONIK now has a stronger financial foundation, with $4.8 million in cash and no long term debt.”

“For the quarter, our revenue decrease resulted from product and distributor sales mixes despite shipping one additional unit from the same period last year, and the gross margin was impacted as well. Operating expenses were 33% lower, including a more normalized sales and marketing effort. Looking ahead, sales are expected to benefit from our strengthening pipeline while we work to expand our international footprint. We’re leveraging our increased investment in sales and marketing and expect expanding awareness of our robotics-based mobility products and monitoring solutions. Supported by a strong balance sheet, we believe that BIONIK is well positioned for future growth,” concluded Mr. Russo.

Second Quarter FY 2022 Financial Results

Second quarter total revenues were $0.2 million, compared with $0.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, a decrease of 22%. Sales and product mix contributed to the decrease despite the shipment of two units in the current period compared to one unit in the second quarter of last year and a seven-fold increase in sales of InMotion Connect Pulse subscriptions. InMotion Connect was launched in June 2020 and its initial sales, which included the sale of twenty-two Connect devices, were recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2021.

Total cost of revenues increased 16%, primarily related to the additional unit that was shipped during the quarter, and combined with the decrease in sales, resulted in gross profit of $0.1 million, a decrease of 34% from the second quarter of last year. The gross margin was 64% compared to 76% in the prior year period as a result of the sales mix.

Total operating expenses decreased nearly $0.6 million, or 33%, from the prior year to $1.2 million. The decrease was primarily driven by reduced share-based compensation and professional fees in general and administrative expenses and reduced research and development programs offset by higher consulting and personnel related expenses related to sales and marketing strategies.

The net loss was $1.3 million, or ($0.22) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.6 million, or ($0.32) per diluted share, in the same period for fiscal 2021. Weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding were 5,855,512 and 5,126,834 for the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 and 2021, respectively.

On a non-GAAP basis, excluding share-based compensation expense, the amortization of intangibles, and foreign exchange measurement losses, the second quarter net loss was $1.2 million, or ($0.21) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $1.4 million, or ($0.27) per diluted share, in the same period for fiscal 2021.

Six Months FY 2022 Financial Results

Total revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2021 increased by $0.3 million, or 63%, to $0.9 million, as compared to revenues of $0.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was attributable to an increase in the number of units shipped year-over-year as well as an increase in subscription sales of InMotion Connect Pulse solutions. Gross Profit increased by $0.3 million, or 65%, to $0.7 million. The increase was associated with selling more units in the 2021 period as well as selling certain demonstration inventory, which have lower associated costs. The gross margin was even year-over-year at 76%. Total operating expenses decreased by $1.4 million, or 35%, to $2.5 million.

The net loss was $1.7 million, or ($0.30) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $3.6 million, or ($0.71) per diluted share, in the same period for fiscal 2021. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding the extinguishment of the PPP loan, share-based compensation expense, foreign exchange measurement losses and the amortization of intangibles, the six month net loss was $1.6 million, or ($0.27) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $2.9 million, or ($0.57) per diluted share, in the same period for fiscal 2021.

To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, BIONIK uses non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP diluted net loss per share. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release exclude costs associated with the amortization of intangible assets acquired, share-based compensation expense, extinguishment of existing debt, as well as unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses for the six months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020. This exclusion may be different from, and therefore not comparable to, similar measures used by other companies.

BIONIK’s management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding amortization, impairment and foreign exchange costs that may not be indicative of our core business operating results. BIONIK believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to the non-GAAP financial measures in assessing BIONIK’s performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. BIONIK also believes that the non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in our financial and operational decision making. The non-GAAP Financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to BIONIK’s historical performance and our competitors’ operating results.
