NexTech Reports Revenue and Gross Profit For February and Audit Update
NEW YORK and TORONTO, March 03, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NexTech AR Solutions (the “Company” or “NexTech”) (OTCQB: NEXCF) (CSE: NTAR) (FSE: N29), the industry leader in augmented reality, is pleased to announce that it has achieved revenue for the month of February of $685,000 and gross profit margin of 66% or $450,000 representing a 184% increase in revenue and 271% increase in gross profits year over year.
Update On Audit and Q1 2020 release:
The Company recently changed its fiscal year-end to a calendar year ending December 31, previously the company had a May 31 year-end. The Company believes this change of year-end to a calendar year-end will better align the Company’s financial reporting periods with its industry peer group in the technology sector, and will allow investors to more easily compare year over year quarterly and annual financial results.
As the company has already released its audited financial statements ending March 31st 2019, which included 5 months of calendar year 2019, this new audit will cover the balance of the year, June 1st - December 31st or the 7 remaining months.
As a result of changing the year-end, the company has been undergoing its 2019 year-end audit for the new calendar year (7 months) ending December 31st, 2019.
The Company will report audited financial results for the 7 month period June 1 to December 31, 2019 in late March 2020.
Results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020 will be reported in May 2020.
The Company will report audited financial results for a seven-month transitional fiscal year June 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019 with a comparative of twelve-month audited financial statements from June 1, 2018 to May 31, 2019.
Going forward in 2020, NexTech AR Solutions Corp. will revert to a customary quarterly reporting calendar based on a December 31st financial year-end, with fiscal quarters ending on the last day in March, June, September, and December each year.
Kashif Malik, CFO of NexTech AR Solutions commented, “Although we are a venture issuer, we are striving to report under the non-venture issuer reporting deadlines. This shows our firm commitment to being a mature public company.”
Evan Gappelberg, CEO of NexTech AR Solutions comments, “With these monthly updates we continue to be transparent with our shareholders which we believe is important, especially in these volatile times. As the Coronavirus has grabbed the headlines for the past week, we have been busy building our business, serving our customers and landing new accounts with zero supply chain issues." He continues, “historically the month of February is the slowest month of the year for e-commerce with the fourth quarter being the biggest months, however we are expecting a significant ramp up in revenue for all business segments to begin in March.”
New Product Updates:
The company is in the final stages of selecting a location in Silicon Valley for its previously announced V-Commerce business
V-Commerce AR/VR has been coined as a way to create virtual stores where a customer could choose and buy products virtually in 3D. VR in retail is predicted to reduce marketing costs, reduce product returns and offer efficient analytics and data which is very similar to the AR value proposition for E-commerce. With ARitize and now VRitize, NexTech has positioned itself at the intersection and transformation of the entire $3.7 trillion dollar (Statista) retail ecosystem with the industry's first state of the art one-stop E-commerce, solution.
-The company is preparing to launch in beta its game-changing “ARitize360” app (formerly named CaptureAR) app in March 2020.
ARitize360 is a pivotal new technology that will accelerate the augmented reality global marketplace. With ARitize360 customers can achieve incredible time and money savings. What could take an experienced 3D modeler days of work to create a 3D version of a product, can now be done in a matter of minutes, and with the same resolution and image fidelity as if the 3D model was designed from scratch.
Both the just launched 3D/AR ad network and the ARitize360 technology work hand in hand building value for each other through content creation and the usage of the content on the ad network. The ad network is part of the company’s AR omni-channel platform approach which includes: AR for e-commerce, AR in Chat, its ARitize App and AR University for education and training. With this new ad network NexTech will continue to leverage all its current 3D asset creation technology and relationships into 3D/AR ads, opening up a major new revenue channel in 2020 and beyond. In 2019, according to IDC, global advertising spend will be about $725 billion, up over 4% from 2018.
