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.

Business and Operations Update

  • Route1 is investing in the right talent to improve our ALPR client experiences. Particularly, Route1 hired Elton Crawford on June 15, 2022 as its Vice President of Operations. Prior to joining Route1, Mr. Crawford was the Assistant Director, Operations, Parking and Transportation Services with the University of Arizona. He brings significant campus parking and public safety experience and knowledge with him to his role as Route1's Vice President of Operations. In his capacity at the University of Arizona, Mr. Crawford was an end user of the Genetec AutoVu TM automated license plate recognition ("ALPR") technology for several years, which includes having worked with parking technology integrators such as T2 Systems and Passport Parking.
  • Route1 continued to see improved levels of recurring revenue derived from its LPR clients through improved support contracts. The Company expects to grow the annual value of support contracts to US $850,000 or more by Dec 31-22; Route1 started the year at a base of US $595,000.

  • The Company has seen, and expects further growth, in the number of ALPR accounts it has as active clients. Route1 started the year at 143 unique end users and has grown to 148 as at Aug 22-22. The net value includes Route1 terminating four accounts.
  • The Company added dedicated human resources in the first half of 2022 to support: (a) Route1's end user client experiences, and (b) channel partners that are either technology integrators, BPOs or parking facility management service providers. The net result has been improving client experiences and demand for the Company's turn-key engineering services.
  • Route1 renewed the MobiKEY service to DISA's Joint Service Provider ("JSP") for an additional year albeit at a smaller level of users - 1,000 versus 4,000. JSP operates and defends the U.S. Department of Defense ("DoD") key cyber terrain, and provides IT services to the Pentagon and National Capital Region customers. The Company expects to realize a similar outcome to that of JSP with a second, 4,000 MobiKEY user DoD account that renews in Aug-22.
  • Route1 is putting in place the building blocks to grow Spyrus Solutions' PocketVault P-3X sales including: (1) sourcing additional hardware components that have been depleted by sales in the first six months of 2022 and the last quarter of 2021, and (2) closing on sales opportunities prior to committing funds for new inventory. Route1 acquired Spyrus Solutions in Sep-22.

Since the closing of the Spyrus Solutions acquisition, the Company has monetized the inventory acquired and realized good short-term success in selling the PocketVault P-3X technology. Route1's contributory gross margin decrease in Q2-22 was a direct result of not pre buying components required to manufacture new inventory until sales orders are in hand. It is also worth noting that the Company spent approximately US $580,000 to acquire Spyrus Solutions.

Moving Forward

Route1 will continue to pivot the sales model towards its core services and engineering competencies. The Company is emphasizing its turn-key engineering services for clients using video and sensor capture technology to deliver real-time, secure actionable intelligence. Route1 enhances its customers' return on investment by driving outcomes through the application of advanced technological solutions and by leveraging our expertise in video intelligence data.

Further, the Company will continue to invest in data security, user authentication technologies, and develop new technologies that will allow Route1 end-users to integrate disparate data sets and use ALPR technology for new outcomes. For certainty, included in our investment is the Company's flagship software application MobiKEY and service delivery platform DEFIMNET, which separates us from other turn-key engineering services competitors

Route1 currently excels as an engineering and professional services provider for ALPR clients and is seeing growth in the number of accounts, increased investment in the technology once deployed by an account, and strong demand for post-sales support from these accounts. The Company's turn-key engineering and professional services to support Route1 clients are as follows: (a) advisory and analysis including operations assessment, (b) design and engineering, (c) hardware and software procurement, (d) project management, (e) installation and configuration, (f) end user and administrator training, (g) technology life-cycle maintenance and support, (h) operations optimization which is centered around data integration and intelligence.

Route1's focus is on situations in which video and sensor intelligence, and related environmental data can augment an organization's capabilities - whether in the private or public sector. Building on the Company's expertise in the video space, combined with its deep-rooted background in software development, system infrastructure operations and cybersecurity, Route1 has a competitive advantage and is in position to differentiate itself in the engineering and professional services arena.

The subscription-based revenue model for Route1's MobiKEY product was one of the first in the industry. Now, Route1 augments that recurring revenue stream having adopted the model throughout the Company. Unlike traditional turn-key engineering and professional-services organizations, the emphasis is on engaging our customers in a way that creates an on-going interaction and drives long term recurring revenue.

Our investment continues to be in people and relationships with independent software vendors ("ISV") and OEMs to leverage their intellectual property to gain actionable intelligence that generates exceptional outcomes for our clients.
