Management Commentary
“Our fiscal 3rd quarter marked the beginning of a major transformation for mPhase, as we worked to complete the planning for our EV charging roll-out, which finally commenced last month,” explained mPhase Chairman and CEO Anshu Bhatnagar. “The first half of 2022 has been one of the most challenging and exciting times we have seen in the last several years. First off, the economic shock waves from world events affected our legacy customers, temporarily disrupting our cash flow right as our capital needs increased. With the signing of our new three-year agreement and other changes, we believe this situation is now remedied and this revenue will resume the kind of steady flow we experienced during the prior three years.”
“We continue to have far more business than our current capital resources can fulfill, so we are working to establish bank lines, equipment financing, and other friendly sources of operational capital in order to ramp up as quickly as possible over the remainder of the year. With the filing of this 10Q, mPhase is once again current and can unlock these important sources of financing; and complete an amended S1 to prepare for an eventual uplist when conditions are optimal. We have already assembled a core group of institutional investors who will support our move to the next level, so the timeline for our uplist is directly connected to the successful execution of our business plan.”
“The EV-equipment stage of that plan is already yielding impressive results. To judge the power of our mPhase ecosystem, consider that we signed properties aligned with 19 significant brands, including Subway, McDonald’s, Pizza Hut, Exxon, BP, Shell, Fairfield Inn, and Comfort Inn – in the first 30 days of our EV roll-out. Our pipeline continues to grow, with more than 30,000 sites on our target list and a strategy to add several thousand consumer engagement customers per month through the end of the year, along with hundreds of charging stations as we infill each state. Based on our target list, we expect to have as many as 75 different chain and brand customers introduced to our system by year end, giving us a long list of use cases to elevate our value proposition to the corporate level. We are already on track to generate more than
“There is no sugarcoating that we’ve had some growing pains during this transition, forcing us to cut costs and reconfigure our management team in order to reignite our momentum. Led by our independent board members, we’ve made some tough decisions along the way in order to instill a more entrepreneurial mindset across our organization. In coming months, you will see some important new faces at mPhase, as we bring in high profile advisers and partners to improve our execution and accelerate our growth. These internal changes are already yielding results, as noted by our increased press release activity in recent weeks. Based on our sales experiences to date, we know that our EV+ approach has tremendous appeal, because it gives retailers more value than any other competing EV charging system. Execution against our current plan may provide an opportunity to end the year as a Nasdaq-listed company, with the fastest growth rate and profitability in the industry.”
Due to the proximity to the next quarterly and year-end report caused by the delayed filing, the Company has elected to resume traditional earnings calls beginning in the next reporting period.
