Quarterhill Announces Q2 2024 Financial Results

• Mr. Vineet Khosla, AI and Machine Learning Pioneer, joins the Board of Directors

TORONTO, Aug. 9, 2024 /CNW/ - Quarterhill Inc. ("Quarterhill" or the "Company") (TSX: QTRH) (OTCQX: QTRHF), a leading provider of tolling and enforcement solutions in the Intelligent Transportation System ("ITS") industry, announces its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. All financial information in this press release is reported in United States ("US") dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Quarterhill has changed the presentation currency of its financial statements to US dollars, its functional currency. A significant proportion of the Company's sales, expenses, assets, and liabilities are denominated in US dollars. This change in presentation currency aims to enhance external stakeholders' ability to assess Quarterhill's financial performance and to reduce the impact of foreign exchange volatility.

Q2 2024 Highlights

• Revenue was $41.5 million, up 7.5% compared to $38.6 million in Q2 2023.
• Adjusted EBITDA¹ was $1.7 million compared to $2.9 million in Q2 2023.
• Cash from operations was $0.8 million compared to cash used in operations of ($10.3) million in Q2 2023.
• Revenue backlog³ was $500 million at June 30, 2024.
• Completed acquisition of Red Fox I.D. Limited ("Red Fox"), expanding the Company's software offerings.
• Red Fox won two prestigious King's Awards: one for innovation and one for excellence in international trade.

"Q2 saw continued execution on our goals to drive top-line growth, expand Adjusted EBITDA margin and improve cash flow," said Chuck Myers, CEO at Quarterhill. "Adjusted EBITDA margin grew sequentially from Q1, and we anticipate continued progress in growing our margin throughout the year. Additionally, we generated positive cash flow from operations for the first time in two years and expect our cash balance to grow through the end of the year."

"Our two business units – tolling and enforcement – made progress in Q2 on their ongoing projects as well as closing new business, resulting in a contracted revenue backlog of $500 million at quarter end. We remain focused on leveraging the improvements we've made in the past year to our project management and contract bidding processes to grow these leading businesses. At the same time, we continue to work to increase our market reach through operational integration, exploring new opportunities in Europe, penetrating the logistics sector and building-out our suite of software solutions, in particular with artificial intelligence (AI) applications."

Q2 2024 Financial Review

Quarterhill's Management's Discussion and Analysis and financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are available at the Company's website and at its profile at SEDAR+.

Financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, have been prepared to reflect continuing operations, and therefore, exclude results during that period from Wi-LAN Inc. ("WiLAN"), which was sold by Quarterhill on June 15, 2023.

Revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, were $41.5 million and $76.4 million, up 7.5% and 14%, respectively, compared to $38.6 million and $67.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in revenues was due to increased activity and improved performance with North American project revenue.

Gross profit² as a value and as a percentage of revenues may be subject to significant variance in each reporting period due to the nature and type of contract and service work performed. Gross profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, was $8.5 million and $14.9 million, or 21% and 19%, as compared to $10.0 million and $13.8 million, or 26% and 21%, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. While gross profit margin percentage has increased on a sequential quarterly basis, the year-over-year decreases compared to the prior year periods were primarily due to one tolling project that is in the maintenance phase but experiencing a transitory period of lower-than-expected margin. The year-over-year decreases in gross profit margin were partially offset by continued strong performance in the Company's enforcement operations.

Total operating expenses are comprised of selling, general and administrative costs ("SG&A"), research and development ("R&D") costs, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets and other charges. Total operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, were $10.8 million and $21.2 million compared to $10.6 million and $22.2 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. The year-over-year changes were primarily due to lower R&D expenses and other charges offset by higher SG&A.

Adjusted EBITDA¹ for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, was $1.7 million and $1.8 million compared to $2.9 million and ($0.9) million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the prior year period, was due to lower gross profit as previously explained, and offset, in part, by increased revenue and lower operating expenses. This increase in Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the prior year period, was due to higher revenue and lower operating expenses.

Net loss from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, was ($3.0) million and ($7.2) million, or ($0.03) and ($0.06) per diluted share, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of ($10.2) million and ($19.3) million, or ($0.09) and ($0.17) per diluted share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

Cash generated (used) in continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, was $0.8 million and ($9.3) million compared to cash used in continuing operations of ($6.9) million and ($13.5) million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

Cash and cash equivalents were $24.0 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $42.7 million at December 31, 2023. The uses of cash in the three months ended June 30, 2024, included a net amount of $4.9 million spent on the acquisition of Red Fox.

Adjusted Working Capital⁴ was $68.4 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $78.9 million at December 31, 2023. Due to the nature of the Company's business activities, operating cash flows may vary significantly between periods due to changes and timing in working capital balances.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Non-IFRS Ratios
Quarterhill uses both IFRS and certain non-IFRS financial measures to assess performance. Non-IFRS financial measures are financial measures disclosed by a company that (a) depict historical or expected future financial performance, financial position or cash flow of a company, (b) with respect to their composition, exclude amounts that are included in, or include amounts that are excluded from the composition of the most directly comparable financial measure disclosed in the primary financial statements of the company, (c) are not disclosed in the financial statements of the company and (d) are not a ratio, fraction, percentage or similar representation. Non-IFRS ratios are financial measures disclosed by a company that are in the form of a ratio, fraction, percentage or similar representation that has a non-IFRS financial measure as one or more of its components, and that are not disclosed in the financial statements of the company.

These non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios are not standardized financial measures under IFRS, and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar financial measures presented by other companies. Management believes these non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios provide transparent and useful supplemental information to help investors evaluate our financial performance, financial condition, and liquidity using the same measures as management. These non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Adjusted EBITDA - Non-IFRS Financial Measures

We use the non-IFRS financial measure "Adjusted EBITDA" to mean net (loss) income adjusted for (i) income taxes, (ii) finance expense or income; (iii) amortization and impairment of intangibles; (iv) other charges and other one-time items; (v) depreciation of right-of-use assets and property, plant and equipment; (vi) stock- based compensation; (vii) foreign exchange (gain) loss; and (viii) other income which includes equity in earnings from joint ventures; (ix) dividends received from joint ventures; and * changes in fair value of derivative liability. Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management to assess our normalized cash generated on a consolidated basis. Adjusted EBITDA is also a performance measure that may be used by investors to analyze the cash generated by Quarterhill. Adjusted EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to net (loss) income and cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with IFRS or as measure of liquidity. The most directly comparable IFRS financial measure is Net (loss) income.

Adjusted EBITDA per share – Non-IFRS ratio

Adjusted EBITDA per share is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by the basic weighted average of common shares. Adjusted EBITDA per share is used by our management and investors to analyze cash generated by Quarterhill on a per share basis. The most comparable IFRS measure is earnings per share.

Adjusted Working Capital

Adjusted Working Capital is calculated as current assets minus current liabilities, adjusted for convertible debentures and derivative liability. Adjusted Working Capital reflects our net working capital expected to be settled in cash within twelve months.

Backlog - Non-IFRS Financial Measures

We use the non-IFRS measure "backlog" to mean the total value of work that has not yet been completed but that in management's experience of similar situations has: (a) a high certainty of being performed pursuant to existing contracts or work orders specifying job scope, value and timing; (b) an expectation of expansion of existing contracts due to expected extensions; and/or (c) been awarded to one or more of our ITS operating subsidiaries as evidenced by a binding contract or where the finalization of a binding contract is reasonably assured. Activities under such contracts may cover a period of up to 15 years. We do not include in "backlog", the value of any expected but unsigned change orders that management considers may apply to such contracts.

Supplementary Financial Measures
Supplementary financial measures are financial measures disclosed by a company that (a) are, or are intended to be, disclosed on a periodic basis to depict the historical or expected future financial performance, financial position or cash flow of a company (b) are not disclosed in the financial statement of the company, (c) are not non-IFRS financial measures, and (d) are not non-IFRS ratios.

Key supplementary measures disclosed are as follows:

Gross margin %
Calculated as gross profit as a percentage of revenue.
