LAS VEGAS, Nov. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Remark Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MARK), a diversified global technology company with leading artificial intelligence ("AI") solutions and digital video analytics, today announced its financial results for the fiscal third quarter ended September 30, 2022. For complete details of the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, please see Remark's filings with the SEC (www.sec.gov).
"In the third quarter, we secured strategic partnerships with global video analytics market leaders like Genetec and Axis to increase the speed of deployment of our award-winning artificial intelligence solutions to a new range of customers. This will build upon the solid foundation which we believe will put us in the best position for success in the coming quarters. Additionally, with President Biden's
- The company, with its AI-powered Smart Safety Platform ("SSP") and related Smart Sentry units, has been selected by Genetec, Axis, and other market-leading providers in the video management software industry as strategic partners. RemarkAI's SSP will be offered to their customers through Genetec's Security Center platform and to customers of the other providers in a similar manner.
- Remark AI's SSP won the contract to provide its solutions to one of the top ten US sports and entertainment arenas with over 2.5 million annual visitors. Solutions included are intrusion detection, people counting, behavioral analysis, detection of loitering, suspicious object detection, fire and smoke detection, intelligent investigation, and trespassing detection.
- Remark AI's Smart Campus solutions were deployed at more than 70 campuses in China, bringing total installations to more than 530 campuses and now cover in excess of over 1 million students. In addition, Remark's AI student evaluation system was recently launched and will sell on top of its current safety products.
- The company, having completed an initial 60-site installation project of its Smart Construction solution in the prior quarter, completed an additional 19 installations at construction sites during the third quarter of 2022, bringing the total installations to 86 sites and continuing to work towards completion of a second 60-site project. Each initial construction project generates
$100,000 in revenue and is expected to grow as China opens up. - Remark's deployment of its systems in China Mobile's retail locations and various banks remains halted as China continues to implement its strict zero-COVID policies. With the conclusion of China's 20th National Congress, we are optimistic that these policies will finally loosen.
- Revenue for the third quarter of 2022 totaled
$2.8 million , reflecting a130% increase from$1.2 million during the fiscal third quarter of 2021. - Revenue contributed by Remark's U.S. businesses decreased to
$0.1 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to$0.4 million in the same period of 2021, primarily due to a$0.2 million decrease from advertising business related to the company's daily fantasy sports project in the prior-year third quarter which did not repeat in the current year. - Revenue from China grew by
227% to$2.7 million , with construction project completions contributing about$1.9 million of the total and the remaining amount primarily due to the completion of Smart Campus deployments in various school districts. - Gross profit of
$0.4 million remained essentially unchanged in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the prior year's third quarter, though such an amount represented a gross profit percentage of12.6% in the third quarter of 2022 compared to30.8% in the same period of 2021. - The company's operating loss of
$6.7 million in the third quarter of 2022 showed only a de minimis increase from the operating loss in the comparable quarter of 2021. The increase in revenue was offset by changes in several operating expense categories. - Net loss totaled
$8.9 million , or$0.08 per diluted share, in the third quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to a net income of$72.7 million , or$0.72 per diluted share, in the third quarter ended September 30, 2021. The prior-year third quarter included a$78.9 million gain on the revaluation of the company's investment in the common stock of Sharecare, Inc., and the value of the asset declined significantly since the prior-year third quarter due to macroeconomic and stock market conditions. - On September 30, 2022, the cash balance totaled
$0.4 million , compared to a cash balance of$14.2 million on December 31, 2021. Net cash used in operating activities was$13.6 million during the nine months that ended September 30, 2022. - In response to a notice received on July 2, 2022, from the company's senior lenders, Remark delivered, on July 11, 2022, its remaining 6,250,000 shares of Sharecare, Inc. to its senior lenders, which reduced the outstanding principal amount on its senior secured loans by approximately
$9.7 million . As a result, the company no longer owns any equity interests in Sharecare, Inc.
