TORONTO & BOSTON – August 13, 2020 -- BIONIK Laboratories Corp. (OTCQB:BNKL) ("BIONIK"), a robotics company focused on providing rehabilitation and assistive technology solutions to individuals with neurological and mobility challenges from hospital to home, today announced financial results for its first quarter of fiscal year 2021, ended June 30, 2020.
Financial highlights for the first quarter of fiscal year 2021 ended June 30, 2020 and recent weeks include:
| · | During the COVID-19 pandemic, BIONIK managed to ship InMotion™robots to customers in the United States. |
| · | Gross margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $195,353, or 75.7%, due to a reversal of an overstated warranty reserve (57.6% without the effects of the warranty adjustment), compared to $454,294 or 57.5% for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. |
| · | Raised approximately $1,502,569 during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2020 and in early July, 2020. |
Corporate highlights for the first quarter of fiscal year 2021 ended June 30, 2020 and recent weeks include:
| · | On June 25, 2020, launched InMotion Connect™, a cloud-based data analytics solution, which combines real-time robot data with deep expertise of BIONIK’s clinical specialists to partner with each clinic, promoting robot utilization, supporting clinician engagement, and enhancing patient care by providing contextual and relevant data to reach hospital clinicians and management teams when it matters the most. |
| · | Donated InMotion® Robotic System to Einstein Healthcare Network’s MossRehab for Use in New COVID-19 Rehab Unit. |
Management Commentary
Commenting on the quarter, Dr. Eric Dusseux, BIONIK’s Chief Executive Officer, said, " With the COVID-19 pandemic, we are in a time of our lives and one within society that we have never experienced before. It is truly unprecedented, which is why BIONIK is operating under a modified plan to reduce costs and otherwise address the effects on our business caused by COVID-19. We sold InMotion™robots to customers in the U.S. We were extremely proud to donate an InMotion® robot to MossRehab, and to help patients inflicted with COVID-19 get the critical therapy they need as they seek a return toward a normal life within their communities, and support their dedicated healthcare team with their tireless efforts to rehabilitate patients. We launched InMotion Connect™ targeting the critical need to improve technology adoption at each rehabilitation clinic that can be monitored through the platform to ensure that the state-of-the-art rehabilitation methods are effectively in use across the hospital network. The single platform, already deployed in one Kindred site, that can be accessed anywhere, anytime, helps increasing technology adoption due to convenience and ease-of-use for the clinician, hospital management and headquarter teams.”
BIONIK continues to expect to achieve the following milestones during fiscal year 2021:
| · | Continue to expand sales channels in North America and abroad. |
| · | Further develop InMotion Connect solutions to serve clinical rehabilitation providers. |
| · | Work with our commercial outsourced manufacturing partner to enhance effectiveness in order to support the expected increase in product demand and introduction of new products. |
| · | Increase sales of data solutions, service contracts and warranties. |
Financial Results
Sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 were $257,908, compared with $790,379 for the quarter ended June 30, 20119. The decrease reflects the sale of two InMotion™robots sold during the COVID-19 pandemic compared to eight InMotion™ robots in the quarter end June 30, 2019. In addition, deferred revenue, comprised of training to be provided and extended warranties, decreased to $582,281 at June 30, 2020 from $616,063 at March 31, 2020. The Company believes that extended warranties and training are important and growing parts of its business.
Gross margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $195,353, or 75.7%, due to a reversal of an overstated warranty reserve (57.6% without the effects of the warranty adjustment), compared to $454,294 or 57.5% for the quarter ended June 30, 2019.
The Company reported a comprehensive loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 of $(2,007,076), or a loss per share of $(0.39), compared with a comprehensive loss of $(2,120,644), or a loss per share of $(0.55), for the quarter ended June 30, 2019.
BIONIK had cash and cash equivalents of $2,403,037 as of June 30, 2020, compared to $2,269,747 as of March 31, 2020. The Company’s working capital deficit at June 30, 2020 was $931,222 compared to a working capital surplus of $626,923 as of March 31, 2020. The working capital deficit at June 30, 2019 is due to convertible loans received by the Company during the quarter being recorded as current liabilities rather than in equity when the loans are converted.
