FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

• Total revenue of $8.5M for the Q3 FY20 and $25.0M for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 ("9M FY20"), are down 5% and 1%, respectively, compared to Q3 FY19 and the nine months ended June 30, 2019 ("9M FY19") due to a decline in device sales. Quarterly monitoring revenue which comprises the substantial majority of total revenue was $8.33M in Q3 FY20, up 5% over Q3 FY19 monitoring revenue of $7.90M. Monitoring revenue for the 9M FY20 was $24.6M, up approximately 3% compared to monitoring revenue of $23.8M for the 9M FY19.
• Quarterly gross profit of $4.6M in Q3 FY20 was down 4% vs. Q3 FY19 gross profit of $4.8M but up 4% over Q2 FY20 gross profit of $4.4M. Gross profit for the 9M FY20 was $13.7 million, or down 1% compared to gross profit of $13.9 million for the 9M FY19.
• Total operating expense for Q3 FY20 of $3.6M is down 13% versus Q3 FY19's $4.2M of total operating expense. The reduction in quarterly operating expense when combined with Q3 FY20 gross profit of $4.6M led to Q3 FY20 quarterly operating income of $1.0M, which is an improvement of 59% compared to the $0.6M operating profit for Q3 FY19. For the 9M FY20, operating income was $1.6M compared to operating income of $0.3M for the nine-month period in FY19, representing an improvement of over 400%.
• Adjusted EBITDA for the Q3 FY20 finished at $2.3M, up 17%, compared to $1.9M for Q3 FY19. Adjusted EBITDA for the 9M FY20 was $5.7M, up approximately 7% vs $5.3M for the nine-month period in FY19.

• Net income attributable to shareholders in Q3 FY20 was $0.4M compared to a net loss of $0.1M in Q3 FY19, a change principally attributable to the Company's strong operating performance and exchange rate gains as the US dollar strengthened against the Chilean peso. The net loss attributable to shareholders for the 9M FY20 was $1.5 million compared to a net loss of $2.1 million in the nine-month period in FY19.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

As of August 6, 2020, the adverse impact by the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) on the Company has been significant on the Chile operation and also has caused some delays with both the supply chain and certain requests for proposal administered by potential new clients. In addition, we are operating in a rapidly changing environment so the extent to which the Coronavirus pandemic impacts our business, operations and financial results from this point forward will depend on numerous evolving factors that we cannot accurately predict. Given this uncertainty, the Company has removed specific guidance regarding fiscal 2020 results.
