VANCOUVER, BC, May 30, 2023 /CNW/ - HS GovTech Solutions Inc. (the "Company" or "HS GovTech") (CSE: HS) (OTC: HDSLF) (FSE: 38H) a leading provider of SaaS applications for government, announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. All financial figures contained herein are expressed in U.S. dollars ("USD") unless otherwise noted.
FY22 Highlights
Chief Executive Officer, Silas Garrison, commented on the first quarter's financial results.
"Q1 of FY23 showed tangible growth in recognized revenue, particularly that of subscription revenue. This is the result of the sustained momentum built over the past several years. We have accelerated growth and operational efficiency such that subscription revenue growth continues to outpace growth in expenses on a year-over-year basis.
We expect to continue our strong pace of sales, with numerous contracts awarded and pending final execution. The sales team is outperforming and regularly bringing new opportunities to the table as quickly as contracts are awarded.
Subsequent to Q1-23, our fully executed contracts will contribute a combined average ARR of $0.12 million. An additional several remain in the final stages of contracting, for an additional of $0.62 million in combined average ARR."
Non-IFRS Measures
ARR is a non-IFRS measure that provides an indication of the subscription revenue from customers that is expected from continued usage per the term of contract signed, and as such management believes ARR to be a meaningful measure for assessment of Company performance. Key assumptions related to ARR figures are from continued usage of the services over the life of the agreement, with the calculation based on the annual average of subscription revenues over the life of the agreement.
EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure that is used as a measure of profit and loss. Management believes EBITDA provides a meaningful measure for assessment of Company performance as it removes non-cash and non-operating expenses such as financing costs. EBITDA is defined and calculated as net loss adjusted to remove interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
