Overview

During the Period, the Company achieved successful delivery milestones of its strategic contracts. This includes milestones on the IAF F-16 Maintenance Trainer program, logistics support provided to the USAF under their T-6A program and additional work scope for the UK Military Flight Training System program.

Successful deliveries and advanced proven technology has led SimiGon to be contracted with strategic programs throughout the Period which has solidified SIMbox as the major training technology platform. This includes the contract signed with the IAF to provide them with T-6A training devices utilizing advanced VR capabilities to support advanced training needs, and the contract award from its key European customer for SIMbox Commercial off-the-shelf training and simulation development platform.

In addition, SimiGon's ability to identify new markets and their requirements for cost effective personal training systems was further demonstrated during the Period when the Company was contracted to deliver a VR Aircraft De-icing Simulators to the USAF.

Over the past 24 months, the Company's strategic focus has been on three main areas:

Sustain the baseline - Continue to successfully deliver Distributed Learning Solutions to our core strategic partners worldwide. SimiGon, directly and through its partners, now has training sites in North America, Europe, Middle East and in the Asia Pacific markets.

Expand market reach - Expand the utilization of our SIMbox technology to multiple domains. This was successfully achieved by targeting several high opportunity markets such as maintenance training, commercial equipment operators training and research labs that utilize SIMbox as part of their research.

Strengthen our technology capabilities - Improve the technological capabilities of the SIMbox technology in order to enable the growth of the Company as detailed above. Beyond the expansion of our graphics engine, simulation and learning management system, we have added and delivered Virtual Reality solutions to multiple clients around the globe.

During the Period, revenue was $5.03 million (2017: $4.34 million) and loss before tax expenses of $0.78 million (2017: loss before income tax of $0.96 million). The key contributor to the reported operating loss is the recording of a doubtful debt provision in a total of $0.45 million related to a delay in payment from a particular customer in the civilian training market, as previously announced. Though discussions continue with that a customer and legal action has been initiated, the Company has now recorded a full (as opposed to partial) doubtful debt provision for the client's entire outstanding debt. Due to the removal of expected future revenues from this customer, our forward backlog order book has been revised from the previously announced $20 million to $14 million, which we expect to recognize over the next ten years.

The Company continues to maintain a strong balance sheet with liquid cash balances of $6 million as at 31 December 2018.
