Applied UV Reports 1st Quarter 2022 Results

Improving Air Purification Market Trends

Applied UV, Inc. (NasdaqCM: AUVI) (“Applied UV” or the “Company”), a pathogen elimination technology company that applies the power of narrow-range ultraviolet light (“UVC”) for surface areas and catalytic bioconversion technology for air purification to destroy pathogens safely, thoroughly, and automatically, announced its financial results for the first quarter 2022.

The Company is also providing key operational metrics on results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022.

Recent Business Highlights

  • Completed the asset acquisition of VisionMark LLC, expanding our product offering beyond fine mirrors to include furnishings allowing MunnWorks to compete head-to-head in new construction and remodeling in the luxury hospitality market
  • Announced Dealer Contract Award for WA State Non-Public Schools
  • Announced Model Room Order for Cleveland Renaissance Hotel

Strategic Positioning and Market Strategy

  • Backlog and pipeline building across multiple verticals including, Dental, Long-Term Care, Hospital, Wine, and Schools (EANS II)
  • Resumed Global Trade Show Conference attendance after 3-year hiatus due to global pandemic
  • Launched targeted sales and marketing initiatives in April of 2022 to coincide with recent Government “Clean the Air” initiatives aimed at cannabis, schools, food preservation and transportation, long-term care (CMS), hospitality and dental verticals. Programs will include digital, a promotional dealer portal, new web, consolidated and targeted social media with the goal of driving sales in the U.S.
  • Exploring joint venture and strategic partnerships offering product placement pilot programs with established companies in long term care, hospitality, logistics, food preservation and transportation as well as floral verticals providing a first to market competitive advantage with market leaders (consumer & commercial)
  • Strengthening of the Senior Executive Team with CEO John F. Andrews announced.

John F. Andrews, Applied UV's Chief Executive Officer commented, “The First Quarter 2022 was another quarter where we completed a strategic asset acquisition that strengthened our MunnWorks hospitality business that expands the Company’s capabilities in the hospitality sector. Our resumption of global tradeshows and conferences coupled with our targeted marketing efforts in our air and surface pathogen elimination platform is beginning to bear fruit as we expect to announce a contract with a market leading cannabis company. Our ongoing efforts in identifying ways to further leverage the portfolio of assets that we believe will enable us to address the growing global demand for solutions that safely and effectively stop the spread of contagious airborne diseases and are easy to implement. Our key wins with our Washington State Dealer, DA Internationals, who was awarded a contract to provide a complete suite of solutions to non-public schools throughout the state of Washington further validates both our strategy as well as provides yet another referenceable installation, validating our air purification technology efficacy, effectiveness, and ease of use.”

Financial Results

Segments

The Company has three reportable segments: the design, manufacture, assembly and distribution of disinfecting systems for use in healthcare, hospitality, and commercial municipal and residential markets (Disinfection segment); the manufacture of fine mirrors specifically for the Hospitality industry (hospitality segment); and the Corporate Segment, which includes expenses primarily related to corporate governance, such as board fees, legal expenses, audit fees, executive management, and listing costs.

Net Sales

Net sales of $3,356,090 represented an increase of $1,043,475, or 45.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to net sales of $2,312,615 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase was primarily attributable to the Disinfection segment, which increased $1,202,076, largely as a result of the strategic acquisitions of KES and Scientific Air in Q3 and Q4 of 2021, respectively. The Hospitality segment decreased ($158,601) primarily due to supply chain disruptions, with multiple order fulfilments delayed into Q2 of 2022.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased $224,833, or 24.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, driven primarily by volume growth from the Disinfection segment. However, gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased approximately (5.8%) from 40.0% in Q1 of 2021 to 34.2% in Q1 of 2022, driven primarily by customer mix in the Disinfection segment and by lower sales, an increase in factory overhead absorption, and higher logistical costs in the Hospitality segment. As the Company continues to integrate their strategic acquisitions, the focus will be on realizing cost synergies from the consolidation and streamlining of the manufacturing and distribution operations.

Operating Expenses

Selling, General, and Administrative – S,G&A costs for the three months ended March 31, 2022, increased to $3,101,226 as compared to $1,601,517 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase of approximately $1.4 million was driven primarily by the expansion of the Disinfection segment with the additional acquisitions of KES and SciAir. Payroll costs increased $0.3 million year over year as headcount increased from 31 at March 31, 2021 to 89 at March 31, 2022. Consulting, accounting, and legal costs increased $0.3 million, and amortization expense, mostly related to the intangible assets associated with the acquisitions, increased $0.3 million. Additional increases were due to advertising and marketing $0.2 million, and bad debt expense of $0.1 million. We anticipate efficiency gains in the coming year as we fully integrate our acquisitions and leverage synergies where practical.

Loss on Impairment of Goodwill – During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company determined that a triggering event had occurred as a result of a settlement agreement with Scientific Air (“Old SAM Partners”) - see explanation of Other Income/Expense below. A quantitative impairment test on the goodwill determined that the fair value was below the carrying value and as a result the Company recorded a full goodwill impairment charge of $1,138,203 on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Other Income/Expense

The Company recorded income on the change in fair value of warrant liability in the amount of $43,828 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to a loss of ($311,400) on the change in fair value for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

On March 31, 2022, there was a settlement of a dispute between the Company and Scientific Air (“Old SAM Partners”) regarding certain representations and warranties in the purchase agreement which resulted in a settlement and mutual release agreement where Old Sam Partners agreed to relinquish such Partner’s right, title, and interest in the previously issued 400,000 shares that were part of the original asset acquisition transaction. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the company recorded a loss on change in fair market value of contingent consideration of $240,000 and, as a result of the settlement agreement, the company recorded a gain on settlement of contingent consideration of $1,700,000.

Net Loss

The Company recorded a net loss of $1,649,872 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to a net loss of $1,032,951 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase of $616,921 in the net loss was mainly due to the increase is SG&A costs incurred in support of the expansion of the Disinfection segment.

The Company had approximately $7.1 million of unrestricted cash available on its consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2022.
