Fourth Quarter 2022 Results

“We enter 2023 following a strong second half of 2022 and are well positioned to execute on our full year 2023 revenue and profitability guidance given strong business momentum and bookings growth on a trailing twelve-month basis. We are focused on our long-term growth objectives and finished 2022 with a strong balance sheet,” said Andrew Schemick, chief financial officer.

Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $86.6 million, representing growth of 15% over the fourth quarter of 2021. The overall increase in revenue was primarily due to growth in our technology-driven services and software product offerings from strong renewal rates, client expansion, and new customers as well as business acquisitions. The increase was partially offset by the negative impact on our revenues from fluctuations foreign currency exchange rates.

On a constant currency basis, total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $89.2 million, representing growth of 18% over the fourth quarter of 2021. Please see note (1) in the section A Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures below for more information on constant currency revenue.

Total cost of revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $31.8 million, an increase of $2.5 million from $29.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, primarily due to a $3.6 million increase in employee-related costs resulting from billable headcount growth, a $0.3 million increase in travel expenses, and a $0.2 million increase related to cost of licenses, partially offset by a $0.8 million decrease in stock-based compensation cost, and a $0.8 million decrease in professional and consulting cost.

Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2022 were $43.5 million, increased by $0.9 million from $42.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, primarily due to a $3.3 million increase in employee-related costs, a $0.4 million increase in professional and consulting cost, a $0.5 million increase in marketing and travel expenses, partially offset by a $1.3 million decrease in stock-based compensation cost, a $0.8 million decrease in business acquisition costs, a $0.6 million increase in capitalized cost in research and development, and a $0.6 million decrease in public offering cost.

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $9.2 million, compared to a net loss of $9.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The $18.9 million increase in net income was primarily due to a $11.3 million increase in total revenue, a $15.0 million decrease in tax expense, a $0.9 million increase in interest income, partially offset by a $2.5 million increase in cost of revenue, a $2.2 million increase in interest expense, a $2.5 million increase in currency loss, and a $0.9 million increase in operating expense.

A Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains “non-GAAP measures” that are financial measures that either exclude or include amounts that are not excluded or included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Specifically, the Company makes use of the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted diluted earnings per share, and constant currency (“CC”) revenue, which are not recognized terms under GAAP. These measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or GAAP diluted earnings per share or revenue as measures of financial performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a measure of discretionary cash available to the Company to invest in the growth of its business. The presentation of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company.

You should refer to the footnotes below as well as the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section in this press release below for a further explanation of these measures and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures in specific periods to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP for those periods.

Management uses various financial metrics, including total revenues, income (loss) from operations, net income (loss), and certain non-GAAP measures, including those discussed above, to measure and assess the performance of the Company’s business, to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to make certain compensation decisions, and to compare the Company’s performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. In addition, management believes these metrics provide useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s business, as they remove the effect of certain non-cash expenses and other items not indicative of its ongoing operating performance.

Management believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted diluted earnings per share, and CC revenue are helpful to investors, analysts, and other interested parties because they can assist in providing a more consistent and comparable overview of our operations across our historical periods. In addition, each of these measures is frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate and assess performance. Furthermore, our business has operations outside the United States that are conducted in local currencies. As a result, the comparability of the financial results reported in U.S. dollars is affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We adjust revenues for constant currency to provide a framework for assessing how our business performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations and we believe it is helpful for investors to present operating results on a comparable basis period over period to evaluate its underlying performance.

Please note that the Company has not reconciled the adjusted EBITDA or adjusted diluted earnings per share forward-looking guidance included in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP measures because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort due to the variability and low visibility with respect to costs related to acquisitions, financings, and employee stock compensation programs, which are potential adjustments to future earnings. We expect the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable, and a potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

  1. CC revenue excludes the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations by assuming constant foreign currency exchange rates used for translation. Current periods revenue reported in currencies other than U.S. Dollars are converted into U.S. Dollars at the average exchange rates in effect for the comparable prior periods.
  2. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income excluding interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, intangible asset amortization, equity-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration expense and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
  3. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude the effect of equity-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, acquisition and integration expense, and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance as well as income tax provision adjustment for such charges.

In evaluating adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses similar to those eliminated in this presentation and this presentation should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual items.

Free Your Hands, QIDI Vida Smart AR Glasses Lead the Way in New Sports Experience.

Published

on

free-your-hands,-qidi-vida-smart-ar-glasses-lead-the-way-in-new-sports-experience.

NEW YORK, April 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Outdoor smart AR glasses, QIDI Vida, will officially launch on 23rd April on the Kickstarter platform.  QIDI Vida integrates the many functions of smart watches, sports headphones, cycling computers, heart rate monitors, and walkie-talkies using AR+AI technology, allowing users to bid farewell to cumbersome device management and enjoy outdoor sports anytime, anywhere with just one pair of glasses.

 
Function:
QIDI Vida uses high-tech HUD (Head-Up Display) which is similar to the technology used for aircrafts and premium cars and introduces it to the sports industry. Users can activate the HUD function at any time using voice control, enabling them to focus on the route ahead whilst simultaneously having access to information such as navigation, speed, heart rate, power and cadence, among other metrics. Another great function of the QIDI Vida is that users can also enjoy audiovisual entertainment through the optically perceived 100-inch AR  HUD screen, when having some down time. 
As cyclists and hikers often travel in groups, QIDI Vida supports eSIM and team functionality, allowing real-time voice communication without releasing handlebars, and users can monitor their groups’ real-time locations. The glasses also have comprehensive sensing and monitoring capabilities including temperature, humidity, UV, air pressure, geomagnetism and acceleration. In addition to obtaining environmental and health information, it also features health warnings such as altitude sickness symptoms and high heart rate, as well as fall and collision detection functions. And, in the event of danger, it can send distress signals to teammates.
Perks:
QIDI Vida has a global voice recognition and interaction feature that allows you to control all functions within the device by voice. To better provide users with an immersive sports experience, QIDI Vida’s intelligent system will have the capability to instantly gather personalised sports data, enabling it to deliver timely voice alerts and broadcasts, including the duration of exercise, distance, the environment and the weather – all tailored to the user’s preferences.
QIDI Vida enables voice-controlled photos and video recordings, allowing users to capture moments whilst cycling or hiking without the need to stop. QIDI Vida supports connections with common cycling smart hardware such as Garmin, Wahoo, Apple, and Samsung, supports GPX route files, and is compatible with professional sports apps such as Strava, Keep, Zwift, Apple Health, and All Trails.
QIDI Vida stands out for its lightweight and comfortable design with a dual lens for a full-colour data display, unlike competing AR glasses that typically have a single lens and limited colour. This innovation significantly enhances and augments the user’s sports and reality experience.
QIDI Vida will launch on the Kickstarter platform: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/109560964/qidi-vida-smart-ar-glasses-for-sports
