• Reports year-over-year revenue growth of 98% to $3.5 Million;
• Extinguished $3.1 million in debt in the quarter
• Backlog of $7.7 million at the end of the quarter
• Initiates fiscal 2022 revenue guidance of $12 to $15 million (67% to 108% year-over-year growth)

Moving iMage Technologies, Inc. (NYSE AMERICAN: MITQ), (MiT) a leading digital cinema technology company, today announced results for its first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021.

“I’m excited to announce in our first full quarter as a public company we delivered strong year-over-year revenue growth of 98%,” said Phil Rafnson, chairman and chief executive officer. “MiT benefited in the quarter from several tailwinds, including strong signs from consumers and theater operators that we are in the very early stages of recovering from the effects of the pandemic; in addition to a nascent cinema technology upgrade cycle.

“We also successfully completed our IPO, which was upsized and oversubscribed, raising net proceeds of $12.3 million, while also seeing strong bookings in the quarter, which was reflected in our backlog of $7.7 million. Finally, we introduced our ADA-compliant, multi-language translator product, which we believe has disruptive potential from both a product and recurring services perspective and is expected to provide an enhanced cinematic experience to a much broader audience.”

Fiscal First Quarter Highlights (compared to fiscal 2021)

• Revenue increased 98% to $3.5 million versus $1.8 million;
• GAAP operating loss of ($0.5) million, versus an operating loss of ($0.3) million;
• Adjusted operating loss of ($0.4) million versus ($0.3) million;

• Adjusted net loss and adjusted diluted loss per share was ($0.4) million and ($0.04) versus ($0.4) million and ($0.07), respectively;
• Backlog of $7.7 million;
• Cash and cash equivalents of $11.0 million.

Fiscal 2022 Commentary

“We believe that fiscal 2021 was a trough year. We used this period to lean out our operations and expand our proprietary product offerings in preparation for the industry’s recovery from the pandemic, and I am encouraged to see industry optimism gaining momentum in recent months. When combined with the billions of dollars in government grants to venue operators, a nascent technology upgrade cycle, new theater construction, theatre upgrades and refurbishment of existing theaters to enhance the overall movie-going experience, I believe we are well-positioned to capitalize on the opportunity ahead. Our relationships within the industry are strong, and we are well-positioned with both the growing small and mid-size theater operators as well as the major circuits, and we believe the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was reflective of this and a sign of even better things to come from both the industry and MiT. As such, we are introducing our initial fiscal 2022 revenue guidance of $12 to $15 million, or 67% to 108% growth over fiscal 2021, and we expect to deliver positive cash flow from operations as well,” concluded Rafnson.

Forward-Looking Statements

All statements above that are not purely about historical facts, including, but not limited to, those in which we use the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate,” “target” and similar expressions, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. While these forward-looking statements represent our current judgment of what may happen in the future, actual results may differ materially from the results expressed or implied by these statements due to numerous important factors. Our filings with the SEC provide detailed information on such statements and risks and should be consulted along with this release. To the extent permitted under applicable law, we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

Use of Non-GAAP Measure

The Company uses adjusted operating income, net income and loss per share as a measure that we believe is customarily used by investors and analysts to evaluate the financial performance of companies in addition to the GAAP measures that we present. Our management also believes that the elimination of one-time items is useful in evaluating our core operating results and when comparing results to prior periods. However, adjusted metrics are not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and should not be considered an alternative to net income or operating income as an indicator of our operating performance or to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
