NTG Clarity Announces the Highest Second Quarter Revenue Since 2017

 Toronto, ON / TheNewswire / August 10, 2022 / NTG Clarity Networks Inc. (TSXV:NCI), announces its second quarter results for the period ended June 30, 2022 (all figures in Canadian Dollars).

 Revenues were up 30% in the quarter and 57% YTD ($7.7M compared to $4.9 in 2021). Our gross margin for this quarter was 57% and the income from operations was $1,938,750. We expect these strong quarterly results to continue in 2022 due to the new contracts previously announced and the renewal of existing contracts. This makes 8 consecutive quarters with a positive net income. 

 Professional service revenue continues to be an important strategic source of revenue for us, given its generally recurring nature (80%). The contribution of product-related revenue was 20% in Q2 2022. We are working on marketing our new NTGapps Digital Tool Box platform product in an effort to make product sales a more balanced part of NTG’s revenue stream. The contribution of product-related revenue was higher than the same period last year (20% compared to 11% in Q2 2021). This is due to the product sales announced at the beginning of the year. 

 Working capital continues to improve with June 30, 2022 being a deficit of $3,419,764 compared to a deficit of $3,757,061 at December 31, 2021.

 Outlook 

 Customers continue to recognize our quality of work and track record and this has resulted in increased work from our major customers that include sales of our NTGapps software product. KSA’s economic strength, due in large part to increasing prices for oil, has shown increasing demand for our products and services and has resulted in a 47% increase in revenue contribution for the country this quarter. 

 We are excited about the increasing demand for offshore services as we expand our business into new verticals that include government and financial sectors. Egypt’s YTD revenue has increased 73% over the same period last year. 

 Revenues are increasing in all sectors; however, travel/accommodation costs have also increased for cost of sales and for marketing and sales as personnel return to onsite work and we visit more customers. Additionally, salaries for personnel have returned to normal amounts. We are working to keep our expenses in line while increasing the revenue. 

 Finally, we are looking forward to expanding into new verticals with our software product; NTGapps digital toolbox. We are including tools related to small and medium enterprise (SME) end-to-end business operations and have already seen demand in the financial and government sectors. Of particular note is the PO we received in March for a new customer in the medical sector to deliver their digital products on the NTGapps platform. We have also seen an increased demand for our Utility software and Network Asset Management with revenue for these products making up 20% of this quarter’s revenue. 

 NTG has a backlog of $8.7M in unbilled amounts for POs on hand. This backlog, with the $7.7M YTD revenue projects an estimated $16.4M revenue for 2022. This is 37% greater than the total revenue for 2021. 

 Additionally, we are expecting to renew several contracts with major customers that are coming up for renewal within the next few months.
