SaaS Revenue Grows 23% Y/Y, Offsetting Expected Seasonal Professional Services

CUPERTINO, Calif., Aug. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - (TSXV: BWLK) (OTCQB: BWLKF) Boardwalktech Software Corp. ("Boardwalktech" or the "Company"), a leading digital ledger platform and enterprise software solutions company, is pleased to report its financial results for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023. All figures are reported in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Boardwalktech's financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").

Financial Highlights:

  • Revenue for Q1-FY24 was $1.55 million, a 3% increase from $1.51 million in Q1-FY23, and versus $1.65 million in Q4-FY23. Revenue from recurring SaaS licenses in Q1-FY24 increased 23% year-over-year from higher incremental licenses executed with both new and existing customers, but was offset by a 46% seasonal decline in professional services.

  • Annual recurring revenue ("ARR"), at June 30, 2023 was $5.8 million, a 14% year-over-year increase versus ARR of $5.1 million at June 30, 2022. ARR is a non-IFRS measure, and the Company defines ARR as the recurring revenue expected based on annual license subscriptions and recurring services.

  • Gross margin for Q1-FY24 was 90.0%, comparable with the 90.2% level in Q1-FY23 and Q4-FY23.

  • Adjusted EBITDA for Q1-F23 was a loss of $(0.5) million, versus the $(0.3) million loss in Q1 -FY23, and $(0.4) million loss in Q4-FY23.

  • Non-IFRS net loss for Q1-FY24 (as defined in the Non-IFRS Financial Measures section) totaled $(0.5) million, or a loss of $(0.01) per basic and diluted share, versus a $(0.3) million non-IFRS loss in Q1 -FY23, or a loss of $(0.01) per basic and diluted share, and a versus a $(0.5) million non-IFRS loss in Q4-FY23, or a loss of $(0.01) per basic and diluted share. These changes were due to the lower professional services revenue in Q1-FY24.

  • Net loss for Q1-FY24 was $(0.9) million, or a loss of $(0.02) per basic and diluted share, which was largely unchanged versus a $(0.9) million loss in Q1-FY23, or $(0.2) per basic and diluted share, and a $(0.9) million loss in Q4-FY23, or $(0.02) per basic and diluted share.

Outlook Update

  • The Company continues to project revenue for the upcoming fiscal year to be $8.5 million to $10.0 million range, based upon a pick-up of business activity and customer (re)engagements as summer winds down.

  • While the Company believes it has sufficient funds and current receivables to achieve its guidance, the Company does recognize it has more opportunities than sales and services resources to close upside growth.

Operational Highlights

  • On June 1, 2023, the Company announced that it had both added another new customer (Nintex) to its list of growing clients while securing a fourth license with an existing global customer (Estee Lauder), with incremental revenue from these contracts expected to exceed $200,000 in the next twelve months, including over $100,000 of recurring revenue in the first year.

"Growth exiting Fiscal Year 2023 continued into the first quarter of this year, as the Company recorded a new historic high in recurring revenue licenses, both from new and existing customers, further demonstrating our 'land and expand' strategy. Our ARR is approaching $6 million and continues to grow each quarter." Chief Executive Officer Andrew T. Duncan commented, "We continue to build on and replenish our pipeline, adding new prospects in both the enterprise sector and via our teaming partners in the global banking and financial services channel. Exiting the summer, we have been experiencing a notable pick up in both new engagements and even customer re-engagements. Thus, we expect to close incremental deals with new enterprises and financial services companies in the months ahead. The Boardwalktech low code digital ledger platform continues to gain traction with these enterprises, especially in supply chain, as it seamlessly solves the many problems associated with structured and unstructured data delivering improved visibility and decision making along with outstanding results and ROI."
