ELK GROVE VILLAGE, Ill., March 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SigmaTron International, Inc. (NASDAQ: SGMA), an electronic manufacturing services (“EMS;” the “Company”), today reported revenues and earnings for the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2022.
As previously reported, the Company closed the merger agreement with Wagz, Inc. (“Wagz”) on December 31, 2021. Prior to the closing of the transaction, the Company had an initial investment in Wagz, along with Convertible Secured Promissory Notes and Secured Promissory Notes issued by Wagz, for a total of
Revenues increased
For the nine months ended January 31, 2022, revenues increased
Commenting on SigmaTron’s third quarter, fiscal 2022 results, Gary R. Fairhead, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, said, “I’m pleased to report another strong quarter in terms of revenue and operating results. This was especially pleasing as our third quarter has historically been somewhat slower than other quarters because of the holiday period. In addition, the third quarter results include one month of operations for Wagz which, as an emerging company, is currently running at a monthly loss, which is expected. As mentioned above, it was determined that under U.S. GAAP guidance, we needed to record a non-cash impairment of the Wagz notes and investment in connection with our acquisition. The impairment essentially lowers the goodwill that we would have on the balance sheet going forward and because of the size of the impairment, can overshadow the continuing strong results for the Company.
“The non-cash impairment has no effect on our operations or on the status of Wagz. Ironically, the amount of the impairment is almost exactly equal to the one-time gain recorded in the first quarter for the forgiveness of the PPP Loan. Accordingly, the 9-month results could be viewed as reflecting the Company’s performance this year without either extraordinary event in the financial results. I also note that as a result of the Wagz merger, the Company’s outstanding shares increased by the number of shares issued to the Wagz stockholders (other than the Company). Starting with the third quarter results, the weighted average number of shares outstanding for each reported period will include those shares.
“Furthermore, the impairment does not affect the covenants under our Credit Agreement with J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., with whom we remain in good standing. In fact, I’m also pleased to report that on Thursday, March 17, 2022, we amended our Credit Agreement with the bank to increase our revolving line of credit to
“Regarding the continuing strong results, the status of the business remains little changed from our second quarter report. Our backlog remains strong. We have also added several new significant customers and several new programs with existing customers. However, the electronic component supply chain remains challenging. Lead-times remain extended with some parts on allocation. Price increases occur with little to no notice. De-commits on shipping dates continue as well. In addition, the Russia/Ukraine war has added another layer of uncertainty to the supply chain. From our current perspective, we do not see any improvement in sight. With that said, all of our operations’ teams continue to navigate these uncharted and choppy waters and have managed to keep the factories busy with enough parts.
“Also, we remain excited about the prospects for Wagz and its sophisticated technology. In the short time since closing, several new significant opportunities have come to Wagz from potential customers. Wagz has also updated its product roadmap and we believe Wagz will be going into calendar 2023 with the best in class pet collar and other linked products not far behind.
“In spite of the uncertainty that continues in the electronic component marketplace, we remain excited, optimistic and enthusiastic going forward. The Company’s operating performance continues to be the best in its history and we do not see any weakening in sight. In fact, each quarter brings new opportunities to layer on to our existing business. Absent a significant slowdown of the economy, either in North America or globally, we believe that we are in a good position at this time.”
