Potential Sales Pipeline is Strongest in Corporate History

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 third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2022, ended December 31, 2021.

Third Quarter FY 2022 and Recent Corporate Highlights

• BIONIK’s potential sales pipeline is currently the strongest it has been in corporate history.
• Started the second phase of the data strategy with BIONIK’s Google-Cloud Platform partner, Bitstrapped, in which the team is currently focused on analyzing data for correlations with the ultimate goal to bring real-time data to patients using our products.
• Revenue was $0.2 million in the current period versus $0.2 million in the third quarter of last fiscal year, primarily due to lengthened delivery schedules in the current COVID-19 environment.
• On a GAAP basis, total operating expenses decreased $2.2 million, or 24%, primarily due to lower impairment of goodwill and intangible assets and to a lesser extent, lower share-based compensation, professional fees and R&D, partially offset by continued increases in sales and marketing investments in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2021.
• On a Non-GAAP basis, our net loss was $1.6 million, or $0.26 per diluted share for fiscal 2022, compared to $1.6 million, or $0.32 per diluted share for fiscal 2021.
• Cash and equivalents totaled $3.4 million and there was no long-term debt on BIONIK’s balance sheet at December 31, 2021.

Rich Russo, Chief Financial Officer and Interim Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We ended the third quarter with the strongest potential sales pipeline in our history, comprised of orders from our sales agreement with Kindred for their existing and soon-to-open affiliated inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, as well as many other facilities and institutions who realize the value and need for our products. Like many companies, Covid and supply chain related delays on both the BIONIK and customer placement sides of our business has resulted in lengthened delivery schedules. Sales for the quarter were flat with last year and increased 48% for the first nine months of the fiscal year. We are continuing to invest our cash of $3.4 million strategically, increasing our spend on sales and marketing programs while continuing to reduce general and administrative and other costs and expenses where possible. We remain focused on enhancing our existing products, new product development and expanding our distribution channels in the U.S. and internationally, while we explore other strategic avenues that could showcase BIONIK’s advanced robotics and technology that improves the quality of life for stroke victims.”

Third Quarter FY 2022 Financial Results

Total revenues for the third quarter were flat with the prior year third quarter at $0.2 million, with one unit sold in each period. The 2021 sale was a direct sale compared to a sale through a distributor in the 2020 period. Subscription revenue, including the InMotion Connect Pulse solutions, also remained consistent with the 2020 period.

Total cost of revenues increased $40,000, or 426%, to approximately $50,000 for the current period, as compared to approximately $10,000 for the 2020 third quarter, reflecting a positive adjustment to the warranty reserve in the 2020 period. As a result of that adjustment, gross profit decreased 22% from the third quarter of last year and the gross margin was 73% compared to 95% in the prior year period.

Total operating expenses were $6.9 million, a decrease of $2.2 million, or 24%, from the third quarter of FY 2021. The decrease was due to lower impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, share-based compensation, professional fees and reduced spending on research and development programs, partially offset by continued increases in sales and marketing investments.

The net loss was $7.0 million, or ($1.18) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $9.0 million, or ($1.75) per diluted share, in the same period for fiscal 2021. The net loss includes charges for the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets of $5.2 million for the third quarter of FY2022 and $7.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. Weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding were 5,903,360 and 5,126,834 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 and 2021, respectively.

On a non-GAAP basis, excluding share-based compensation expense, the costs associated with the impairment and amortization of intangibles, and foreign exchange measurement losses, the third quarter net loss was $1.6 million, or ($0.26) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $1.6 million, or ($0.32) per diluted share, in the same period for fiscal 2021.

Nine Months FY 2022 Financial Results

Total revenues for the nine months ended December 31, 2021, increased by $0.4 million, or 48%, to $1.1 million, compared to revenues of $0.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2020. Eight units were shipped in the nine months ended December 31, 2021, compared to 4 units in the nine-month period ended December 2020. Subscription sales for the InMotion Connect Pulse solutions nearly tripled after first being introduced in June 2020.

Gross profit increased 39% to $0.8 million. The increase was due to selling more units in the 2021 period compared to the 2020 period as well as an adjustment made in the 2020 period to decrease the warranty reserve in conjunction with less unit sales due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The gross margin was 76% compared to 81% in the same period last year. Total operating expenses, excluding charges for the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, decreased by $1.6 million, or 28%, to $4.2 million.

The net loss was $8.7 million, or ($1.50) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $12.6 million, or ($2.45) per diluted share, in the same period for fiscal 2021. The net loss includes charges for the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets of $5.2 million for the first nine months of FY2022 and $7.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal year 2021. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding share-based compensation expense, costs associated with the impairment and amortization of intangibles, extinguishment of debt and foreign exchange measurement losses, the nine month net loss was $3.6 million, or ($0.61) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $4.6 million, or ($0.89) 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 nine months ended December 31, 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.
