The Glimpse Group Reports Q1 Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Results

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / November 14, 2024 / The Glimpse Group, Inc. ("Glimpse") (NASDAQ:VRAR), a diversified Immersive Technology platform company providing enterprise-focused Virtual Reality ("VR"), Augmented Reality ("AR") and Spatial Computing software and services, provided financial results for its first quarter fiscal year 2025 year, ended September 30, 2024 ("Q1 FY '25").

Business Commentary by President & CEO Lyron Bentovim

Financial Summary:

• Q1 FY '25 revenue of approximately $2.44 million, reflecting: a) 44% increase compared to Q4 FY '24 (ending June 30, 2024) revenue of approximately $1.7 million. The Q-Q increase was primarily driven by an increase in Spatial Core revenues, and b) a 21% decrease compared to Q1 FY '24 (ending September 30, 2023) revenue of approximately $3.1 million. The Y-Y decrease was primarily driven by our strategic alignment over the last 9 months which led to a turnover in our legacy customer base and consolidation and divestiture of some of our businesses.

• We expect revenue in the next three upcoming quarters to exceed $3 million on average per quarter, and aggregate revenue for FY '25 (ending June 30, 2025) to be in the $11-12 million range compared to $8.8 million for FY '24 (ended June 30, 2024), a 25-35% increase in annual revenue. This expected growth will be primarily driven by an increase in Spatial Core revenues, as well as potential growth in our other businesses.

• Gross Margin for Q1 FY ‘25 was approximately 79% compared to 62% for Q1 FY ‘24. The increase was driven by an increase in Spatial Core revenues and higher software license revenues this quarter. On average, we expect our going forward Gross Margin to be in the 60-70% range.

• Adjusted EBITDA loss for Q1 FY '25 was approximately $0.46 million, compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of approximately $1.29 million for Q1 FY '24.

• Our current cash operating expense base (pre revenue) is now less than $1.0 million/month. Given our projected revenues going forward, we expect to generate positive cash flow in each of the three remaining quarters.

• The Company's cash and equivalent position as of September 30, 2024 was approximately $1.4 million, with an additional $0.9 million in accounts receivable.

• We do not intend to raise capital in the foreseeable future, especially since we expect our operations to generate positive cash and grow our cash balance between.

• We continue to maintain a clean capital structure with no debt, no convertible debt and no preferred equity.

• For the full detail of our financial results, please refer to our 8K and 10Q filed on 11/14/24.

Recent Business Updates:

• During the quarter, we continued to progress toward securing several multi-million dollar enterprise-scale Spatial Computing, Cloud and AI driven Immersive software solutions ("Spatial Core") contracts with multiple Government, DoD and large enterprise customers. The short-term aggregate value for these contracts is in the $5-10 million range. We expect to get confirmation on one of these contracts in December ‘24 and to receive confirmation on the others in early 2025, due to government budgetary delays.

• Entered into a mid-six figure contract with a global water and hygiene infrastructure company for an augmented reality (AR) solution.

• Entered into a mid-six figure contract with a global energy company for Immersive content.

• Entered into a multi year, mid-six figure contract with a state district for Immersive education.

• QReal saw a significant increase in revenue, driven by demand from its largest customer for AR lenses and 3D models.

Strategic Review & QReal Divestiture

• In light of Spatial Core's AI and Cloud driven revenues with large DoD entities, our strong pipeline of revenues and our expectation to generate positive cash flows going forward, we believe that there is a sharp disconnect between our intrinsic value and our current public company valuation.

• This disconnect has had a significant negative impact on our ability to execute on our growth strategy. As such, the Board of Directors of the Company is exploring various aggressive strategic options to unlock the value inherent in our business and/or assets and may pursue such options during this fiscal year.

• As part this strategic review process and our previously announced strategic realignment around Spatial Core and divestiture of non-core assets, effective on October 1, 2024, Glimpse divested the businesses of its wholly owned subsidiary companies QReal, LLC ("QReal") and its related Turkey-based operating entity ("Glimpse Turkey").

Key elements of the divestiture:

• Creates approximately $4.0 million of expected net cash value to Glimpse over the next two years, inclusive of $1.2 to $1.5 million in annual cash expense savings (excluding the upside potential from our equity position in the divested entity and/or from the repayment of our senior note).

• Simplifies and streamlines Glimpse's operations (approximately 60 less employees) and eliminates Turkey country risk.

• No material changes to our expected revenues for fiscal years 2025 and 2026, as Glimpse retains the revenues from QReal's largest customer in full until such time that Glimpse has collected and retained $1.35 million net cash in the aggregate, after taking into account all related operating expenses and fees (the "Milestone"). After satisfaction of the Milestone, Glimpse will receive a monthly cash revenue share for an additional period of 18 months in relation to any revenues generated from this same customer.

• Glimpse was issued a $1.56 million Senior Secured Convertible Note in a new and independent entity ("Newco") that will operate QReal's virtual try-on business. Note principal payback is tied directly to revenue collected by Newco (separate from the Milestone).

• Newco raised outside capital and Glimpse was issued a minority equity stake in Newco.

• We believe that QReal's virtual try-on business has greater growth and success potential as an independent entity outside of Glimpse, potentially creating significant equity value for Glimpse's shareholders in excess of QReal's current equity value within Glimpse.

Note about Non-GAAP Financial Measures

A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. Non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures. Other companies may use different non-GAAP measures and presentation of results.

In addition to financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release presents adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by taking net loss and adding interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expenses. The company believes that this non-GAAP measure, viewed in addition to and not in lieu of net loss, provides useful information to investors by providing a more focused measure of operating results. This metric is an integral part of the Company's internal reporting to evaluate its operations and the performance of senior management. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most comparable GAAP measure, is available in the accompanying financial tables below. The non-GAAP measure presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
