Route1 Reports Record Results in Third Quarter of 2018TORONTO, Nov. 06, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Route1 Inc. (OTCQB: ROIUF and TSXV: ROI) (the “Company” or “Route1”), North America's most advanced provider of industrial-grade data intelligence, user authentication and ultra-secure mobile workforce solutions, today announced its third quarter (Q3) financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.
2 Includes stock based compensation, AirWatch litigation, gain on acquisition and foreign exchange
3 Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, patent litigation, restructuring and other costs. Adjusted EBITDA does not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA allows Route1 to compare its operating performance over time on a consistent basis. Route1 generated cash from operating activities of approximately $0.5 million during Q3 2018 compared with cash used in operating activities of $0.2 million in Q3 2017. Non-cash working capital of $1.0 million was generated in Q3 2018 compared to $0.5 million of cash used in the same period a year earlier. Net cash generated from the day–to-day operations for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $1.5 million compared to cash used of $0.6 million in Q3 2017.
“I am pleased with the operating and financial performance the GroupMobile team delivered during our recently completed third quarter. The strong quarterly financial results reflect the high quality execution of our Group Mobile Int’l integration plan, closure on the July 2018 US $5.9 million purchase order for Getac rugged devices from a US based integrated energy company engaged primarily in electric power production and retail distribution operations, delivering to the market cutting edge software applications for data analytics and data security, and the start of realizing on the inherent business value that falls out of acquisition of Group Mobile Int’l earlier this year,” said Tony Busseri CEO of Route1. “Of note is the positive impact the addition of the rugged device resale business that we purchased earlier this year. Results will vary from quarter to quarter, as device sales can be influenced by one-time large orders similar to the impact the US $5.9 million had on this third quarter. “We started our business pivot towards being an advanced provider of solutions for the ultra-secure mobile workforce, user authentication and data intelligence in mid-2017 and the plan is now producing better than expected results at this point in the business model’s maturity. We expect GroupMobile to grow organically and through acquisition over the next year and continue to aggressively move forward on realizing on the embedded value in our intellectual property.” Investor Conference Call and Webcast Route1 will hold a conference call and web cast to discuss the Company’s financial results and provide a business update on Wednesday, November 7, 2018 at 9 a.m. eastern.
