FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

  • Gross profit of $21.1M in FY21 was up over 13% compared to FY20 gross profit of $18.6M due to the growth in revenue offset primarily by the increase in amortization expense associated with implementation of the new software platform.
  • Operating income in FY21 of $4.7M compared to operating income of $2.8M for FY20, representing an improvement of over 70% despite the global pandemic.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for FY21 of $10.3M, up nearly 26%, compared to $8.2M for FY20. Adjusted EBITDA in FY21 as a percentage of revenue also increased to 25.9%, compared to 24.2% for FY20.

  • Net income attributable to shareholders in FY21 was $3.4M compared to a net loss of $0.1M in FY20, a change principally attributable to the Company's strong operating performance.

Business Outlook

As of December 16, 2021, the Coronavirus pandemic has adversely impacted certain aspects of the Company's operations including delays within the supply chain. The extent to which the Coronavirus pandemic, tight labor market and global semiconductor shortage impact our operations and financial results from this point forward will depend on numerous evolving factors that we cannot accurately predict. Despite these challenges to technology companies worldwide, Track Group remains confident that our adjustments to this new normal have not only evidenced success in FY21 but will afford us the ability to remain agile in FY22.
