Company reports continued growth in revenue and record profitability
PLAINVIEW, NY / August 14, 2023 / Vaso Corporation (“Vaso”) (OTCQB:VASO) today reported its operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
“For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a total revenue of $20.4 million, representing a 5% growth from the same period last year, thanks to the great performance from all three of our business units,” commented Dr. Jun Ma, President and Chief Executive Officer of Vaso Corporation. “Gross profit for the quarter increased by 13% year-over-year, to $12.8 million, as a result of increased revenue and higher gross margin. Quarterly net income was also up significantly, to $2.1 million from prior year’s $1.5 million, making the quarter the most profitable second quarter in the history of the Company.”
“The Company continued to generate positive cashflow from operating activities, in the amount of $8.0 million during the second quarter of 2023. Furthermore, our balance sheet remains strong, with $26.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of June 30, 2023, up from $15.9 million a year before, and total deferred revenue reached another historical high of $33.6 million at the end of second quarter,” Dr. Ma continued.
“We are very pleased with the operating results for the second quarter of the year, especially when the growth was from areas where we have spent resources to develop: our healthcare IT business in VasoTechnology, our new ultrasound sales program for GEHC in VasoHealthcare, and our ARCS® cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) subscription program in VasoMedical. We continue to concentrate our efforts to maintain continued growth and profitability,” concluded Dr. Ma.
Financial Results for Three Months Ended June 30, 2023
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, total revenue increased 5% to $20.4 million from $19.5 million for the same period of 2022. Revenue in our IT segment increased by $416 thousand or 4% when compared to the second quarter of 2022, mostly because of growth in the healthcare IT business. Revenue in the professional sales service segment increased by $400 thousand or 5% when compared to the second quarter of 2022, due primarily to the new GEHC ultrasound sales program beginning in the second quarter of 2023. Revenue in the equipment segment increased by $119 thousand or 19% when compared to the same quarter of last year, due to higher sales of ARCS® cloud software subscription in the US and higher equipment deliveries in our China operations.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2023 was $12.8 million, compared to $11.3 million for the same quarter of 2022, representing an increase of 13% year over year. This increase was primarily the result of the increase in revenue and higher gross margin for the period.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the second quarter of 2023 increased 11% to $10.6 million, when compared to the second quarter of 2022. The increase is primarily attributable to additional headcount for the new GEHC ultrasound sales program and higher travel and personnel costs in the professional sales service segment and higher personnel costs in the China operations, partially offset by a decrease in expenses in the IT segment.
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $2.1 million, compared to net income of $1.5 million in the second quarter 2022, representing an increase of $577 thousand, or 39%.
Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and non-cash stock-based compensation) was $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $2.3 million for the same period a year ago.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the first six months of 2023 was $6.0 million, compared to cash provided by operations of $9.7 million for the same period in 2022. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of approximately $26.1 million and $20.3 million, respectively.

“The Company recorded a total revenue of $19.2 million for the first quarter of 2023, a growth of $2.2 million or 13.0% when compared to the same quarter last year. Quarterly gross profit reached $11.7 million, up by 19.9% year-over-year, as a result of higher revenue and higher gross profit margin,” stated Dr. Jun Ma, President and Chief Executive Officer of Vaso Corporation. “We have also achieved profitability in the first quarter of the year, with quarterly net income of $0.5 million versus prior year’s quarterly net loss of $0.3 million, which is particularly noteworthy as we usually incur losses in the early quarters of the year due to the seasonality of our businesses.”
“We were able to deliver these great results thanks to the revenue growth and improved operational efficiency in all three of our business units. As the Company’s balance sheet remains strong as well, the management is looking forward to another great year in 2023,” concluded Dr. Ma.
Financial Results for Three Months Ended March 31, 2023
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, revenue increased by 13.0% to $19.2 million from $17.0 million for the same period of 2022, due primarily to the increase of $1.7 million, or 25.8%, in revenue in our professional sales service segment as the result of higher equipment deliveries and a higher blended commission rate during the quarter. In addition, revenue in our IT segment increased by $271 thousand, or 2.7%, in the first quarter 2023 when compared to the same quarter of 2022, due to higher revenue in both the NetWolves and Vasohealthcare IT businesses; and our equipment segment revenue increased by $238 thousand, or 59.7%, when compared to the first quarter of 2022, principally due to higher equipment deliveries in our China operations.
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2023 increased by $1.9 million, or 19.9%, to $11.7 million, compared with a gross profit of $9.8 million for the same quarter of 2022, as a result of both higher revenues and higher gross profit margin, primarily in our professional sales service segment.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the first quarter of 2023 increased by $1.1 million, or 11.4%, to $11.1 million, compared to the first quarter of 2022. The increase is primarily attributable to higher personnel costs across all three business segments as well as higher annual national sales meeting costs in our professional sales service segment.
Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $410 thousand, compared to an operating loss of $354 thousand in the first quarter 2022, representing an improvement of $764 thousand, resulting from the increase in gross profit, partially offset by the increase in SG&A costs.
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $454 thousand, a significant improvement over the loss of $344 thousand for the first quarter of 2022.
Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation) improved to $639 thousand for the quarter, compared to $147 thousand in the first quarter of 2022.

The Company Announces Record Annual Revenue and Profit
PLAINVIEW, NY / ACCESSWIRE / March 29, 2023 / Vaso Corporation (“Vaso”) (OTCQB:VASO) today announced its operating results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2022.
“The Company recorded annual revenue of $80.0 million in fiscal year 2022, a growth of 5.9% over the prior year, and achieved an annual operating income of $7.0 million, an increase of 149.5% year-over-year. Net income for the year also increased significantly, to $11.9 million from $6.1 million for 2021,” stated Dr. Jun Ma, President and Chief Executive Officer of Vaso Corporation. “We were able to deliver such continued improvements in the top- and bottom-line results thanks to the extraordinary performance of our professional sales service segment and improved operating results in our IT segment, despite the negative effect of last year’s COVID lockdowns in China that our equipment segment endured.”
“Our balance sheet remains strong, with $20.3 million of cash and short-term investments at the end of 2022 as a result of $14.4 million in operating cashflow generated during the year,” Dr. Ma continued. “Deferred revenue increased by $5.8 million in fiscal year 2022 to reach a historical high of $30.8 million as of December 31, 2022, which will turn into recognized revenue once the underlying products or services are delivered in future periods.”
“With a healthy financial position and a diversified business portfolio, management is optimistic about the Company’s performance going forward. Our IT segment has improved operating efficiency as it’s recovering from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; our professional sales service segment continues to outperform expectations and has expanded the scope of its partnership with GE HealthCare; and our equipment segment is starting to evolve from a pure product play to a more product-based service business. We would not be able to accomplish all these without our employees’ dedication and professionalism. On behalf of the board of directors, I want to thank them as well as our shareholders for their continued support,” concluded Dr. Ma.
Financial Results for Three Months Ended December 31, 2022
For the three months ended December 31, 2022, revenue decreased by 4.2% to $23.5 million from $24.5 million for the same period of 2021, due to lower revenues in all our business segments. Revenue in our IT segment decreased by $0.4 million, or 3.7%, to $10.2 million as the result of lower recurring services during the quarter; revenue in our equipment segment decreased by $0.5 million, or 39.1%, to $0.8 million due to lower equipment sales in China in the quarter; and revenue in our professional sales service segment decreased by $0.1 million, or 1.0%, to $12.4 million due to lower incentive revenue when compared to the prior year, partially offset by higher equipment deliveries. We anticipate that revenue will improve in all three business segments, as we expect growth from new business in the IT segment, growth in our professional sales service segment resulting from strong order bookings in 2022, and a recovery of our China operations from last year’s COVID lockdowns.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2022 decreased by 5.3% to $14.8 million, compared with a gross profit of $15.7 million for the same quarter of 2021. This decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in revenue and the increase in commission expense in the professional sales service segment.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the fourth quarter of 2022 increased by 2.9% to $11.3 million, compared to $10.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in personnel and travel costs in the professional sales service segment, offset by a decrease in travel and other costs in the IT segment. SG&A expenses were 48.0% and 44.7% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2022 was $8.2 million, compared with a net income of $3.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to the recognition of a $4.8 million tax benefit resulting from a reduction in the reserve for deferred tax assets.
Financial Results for Year Ended December 31, 2022
For the year ended December 31, 2022, revenue increased by $4.4 million, or 5.9%, to $80.0 million when compared with $75.6 million of revenue for the year 2021. Revenue in our IT segment decreased by 6.6% to $40.1 million for the year 2022, from 2021 revenue of $42.9 million, primarily due to a decrease of revenue in the network services business. Commission revenues in our professional sales service segment increased by $7.9 million, or 26.8%, to $37.3 million in the year 2022, compared to $29.4 million in 2021, primarily as the result of higher equipment deliveries by our partner and higher blended commission rates for the equipment delivered during the year. Equipment segment revenue for the year 2022 decreased by 20.1% to $2.6 million, from $3.2 million in 2021, due to a decrease in product sales in our China operations and the effect of foreign exchange rates, partially offset by a small increase in U.S. sales.
Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2022 increased by 12.4% to $48.5 million, from $43.1 million in 2021, as a result of the higher revenue as well as higher gross profit margin in 2022.
SG&A expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022 increased by $2.3 million, or 5.8%, to $40.8 million, or 51.0% of revenue, compared with $38.6 million, or 51.1% of revenue, for the same period in 2021. The increase resulted primarily from an increase of $2.2 million in personnel and travel costs in the professional sales service segment.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company had net income of $11.9 million, $5.8 million greater than the net income of $6.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and share-based compensation) was $9.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $10.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 which included $3.6 million of PPP loan and interest forgiveness the Company recognized as income in 2021.
Net cash provided from operating activities in 2022 was $14.4 million, compared to net cash provided from operating activities of $7.8 million in 2021. The increase is principally due to the increase in profitability. Net cash and short-term investments increased to $20.3 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $6.6 million at December 31, 2021. The increase is the net effect of the increase in cash from operating activities and lower debt service payments in 2022 compared to 2021.
Deferred revenue increased to $30.8 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $25.0 million at December 31, 2021. The increase is primarily the result of higher order bookings in the professional sales service segment. Deferred revenue will be recognized in the future when the underlying equipment or services are delivered and accepted at the customer site.

Company reports net income of $1.5 million on significant revenue growth
PLAINVIEW, NY / November 14, 2022 / Vaso Corporation (“Vaso”) (OTCQB:VASO) today reported its operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2022.
“For the third quarter of 2022, the Company recorded a net income of $2.5 million on revenue of $20.0 million, compared to the prior year’s third quarter net income of $0.7 million on revenue of $18.4 million. For the nine months ending September 30, 2022, net income increased by $0.9 million year-over-year – or by $4.5 million when excluding the PPP loan forgiveness of $3.6 million the Company recognized as income in the second quarter of 2021,” commented Dr. Jun Ma, President and Chief Executive Officer of Vaso Corporation. “Such improvements on both top and bottom lines are not only significant to achieve continued profitability in 2022 but also to ensure a much-improved year since historically the fourth quarter has been the most profitable quarter of the year due to the cyclical nature of our business.”
“The Company also generated $2.9 million of cash from operating activities during the third quarter of the year and continues to maintain a very strong cash position. As of September 30, 2022, our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments reached $18.7 million, an increase of $12.0 million since the beginning of the year. While the uncertainties affecting our business, such as inflation and global supply chain disruption, do not seem to ease in the near future, we remain optimistic about the Company’s performance going forward,” concluded Dr. Ma.
Financial Results for Three Months Ended September 30, 2022
Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $20.0 million, representing an increase of $1.6 million or 9% from revenue of $18.4 million for the same period in the prior year. On a segment basis, revenue in the professional sales services segment increased $2.2 million or 30% year-over-year, mainly as a result of higher volume of underlying equipment delivered by our partner during the period as well as higher blended commission rates on those deliveries; revenue in the IT segment decreased by $0.7 million or 7% year-over-year, due to lower sales in network services and in the healthcare IT business; and revenue in the equipment segment increased by $0.2 million or 26% year-over-year, due to higher deliveries in China partially offset by unfavorable currency exchange rate during the period.
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased by $2.3 million, or 22%, to $12.5 million, from $10.2 million for the third quarter of 2021. This increase was mainly due to the increases in revenue and gross profit of the professional sales services segment.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the third quarter of 2022 increased by 5% to $10.0 million when compared to the third quarter of 2021. The increase is primarily attributable to higher personnel and travel costs in the professional sales service and IT segments as compared to 2021.
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $2.5 million, compared to net income of $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The principal cause of the increase in net income is the increase in revenue in the professional sales service segment.
Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for non-cash stock-based compensation) was $2.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to $1.4 million for the third quarter of 2021.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2022 was $12.7 million, compared to $5.4 million for the same period in 2021. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short term investments of approximately $18.7 million and $6.7 million, respectively, an increase of $12.0 million.

PLAINVIEW, NY / October 6, 2022 / Vaso Corporation (“Vaso”) (OTCMKTS:VASO) today announced that its application to up-list from the OTC Pink Sheets to the OTCQB market has been approved by OTC Markets Group. The effective date of the listing on OTCQB is expected to be on October 10, 2022.
Compared to the OTC Pink Sheets, listing on the OTCQB market significantly increases transparency, reporting standards, management certification and compliance requirements. The OTCQB market is considered by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as an “established public market” for determining the public market price when registering securities for resale with the SEC, and as such, a larger number of broker dealers are able to trade stocks on the OTCQB market. Therefore, the Company believes that the move to the OTCQB market will provide enhanced investor benefits including greater access to the most current information possible as well as analyst coverage and news services, while reducing the trading limits and restrictions the Company may face on the Pink market.
“Up-listing to the OTCQB market should allow us to achieve greater market visibility along with increased trading liquidity within the investment community. We look forward to showcasing our Company to a larger audience of domestic and international investors,” commented Jun Ma, President and Chief Executive Officer of Vaso. “Besides continued improvements in operating and financial results the Company has accomplished in the last several years, this is the first of several advancements the Company has planned for the capital market. We hope it will provide greater recognition of shareholder value.”
