AITX Announces Strong Financial Growth with 2.7x Increase in Recurring Revenue, SG&A Expense Reduction and Debt Extensions in Latest 10-Q Filing

Management encourages all AITX investors, fans, and followers to thoroughly review the full SEC filing at http://tinyurl.com/ye6wbdpa and wishes to highlight three critical areas of performance:

1. Robust Growth in Recurring Monthly Revenue (RMR):

For the three months ended November 30, 2023, AITX reported RMR of $416,062, which is 2.7 times that of the $154,628 earned in the same period in 2022. This substantial growth in RMR, a key metric for the company, underscores continued strong growth.

Management reported that the quality of the sales funnel continues to improve and is looking to add two salespeople to the team to continue to accelerate sales.

2. Decrease in SG&A Expenses:

During the period of robust growth, the Company reported a 9% decrease in SG&A expenses for the nine months ended November 30, 2023, totaling $9,038,313, compared to $9,928,144 for the same period in 2022. For the three-month period ended November 30, 2023, SG&A expenses were $2,766,523, an 8% decrease from $3,002,282 for the corresponding period in 2022. These reductions are calculated net of non-recurring bonuses and demonstrate AITX’s continued focus on efficiency and cost management.

Management will continue to strive for additional cost controls in Q4 of AITX’s fiscal year (December 1, 2023 through February 29, 2024).

3. Extension of Debt Maturity:

AITX successfully extended the maturity date of approximately $10.8 million of debt with its key lender. The terms of the various loans have been extended by approximately two years, the debt has been reclassified from current to long-term and ensuring there are now no defaults of these loans within these new terms. This improves the company’s liquidity profile. Notably, the lender did not request additional compensation for this extension, reflecting confidence in AITX’s financial health and future. As with all of AITX’s long term debt there are no monthly payments or other servicing required. Note that this lender has extended these loans in the past as well.

Steve Reinharz, CEO of AITX, expressed his satisfaction with these developments, stating, “We’re extremely pleased with the progress we’ve made over the past year. The significant growth in our Recurring Monthly Revenue is a testament to the strength and appeal of our solutions in the market. Moreover, the reduction in SG&A expenses reflects our commitment to lean and efficient operations. Lastly, the demonstration of support from our key lender, extending over $10 million in debt by 2 years, is simply fantastic and allows us to continue to focus on building the business and reaching positive operational cash flow.”

Mark Folmer, CPP, PSP, FSyI, President of RAD, also commented on the financial results, “The numbers speak volumes about our strategic direction and operational efficiency. This performance is a clear indication of our team’s hard work and dedication to achieving our financial goals.”

AITX is poised to continue its growth trajectory, building on these positive financial results, and strengthened liquidity position. The Company remains dedicated to delivering innovative AI-driven security solutions while maintaining a strong focus on financial health and operational efficiency.
