Net Profit for the Quarter Increased by 104% Year-over-Year

PLAINVIEW, N.Y. November 13, 2020 – Vaso Corporation (“Vaso”) (OTCMKTS: VASO) today reported its operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

“Despite continued impediment to business by the COVID pandemic, which led to a 6% drop in quarterly revenue from a year ago, the Company recorded an operating income of $1.3 million for the third quarter of 2020, an increase of 56% when compared to the $0.8 million operating income for the same quarter last year. This is mainly a result of much lower selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) costs, which during the quarter decreased by 14% year-over-year,” commented Dr. Jun Ma, President and CEO of the Company. “Net profit for the quarter was $1.1 million, representing an increase of 104% year-over-year. Year-to-date, we saw a $2.2 million improvement to the bottom line from the prior year even when the top line was slightly down. The Company has also generated $4.7 million cash from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and maintains a healthy cash position as of today.”

“We remain cautiously optimistic about the current state of our businesses and are confident about the future of the Company. We are particularly encouraged by the performance of our professional sales service and equipment segments, which have shown significant improvements in the quarterly and year-to-date operating results even during this difficult year. We continue to be vigilant and stay ready for the recovery of the economy from the pandemic,” concluded Dr. Ma.

Financial Results for Three Months Ended September 30, 2020

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, revenue decreased $1.2 million, or 6%, to $17.5 million from $18.7 million for the same period of 2019, primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Quarterly revenue in our IT segment decreased by $652 thousand or 6% year-over-year as both the healthcare IT business and network services business were affected by the pandemic. Revenue in the professional sales service segment decreased by $535 thousand, or 8% year-over-year, mainly due to lower equipment deliveries by our partner. Revenue in the equipment segment decreased by $6 thousand, or 0.7% year-over-year, mainly due to exclusion of EECP sales in the reporting, offset by an increase in the Biox equipment sales

Gross profit for the third quarter of 2020 decreased by 9% to $9.9 million, compared with a gross profit of $10.8 million for the third quarter of 2019. This decrease is primarily the result of a decrease in revenue in the IT and professional sales service segments due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the IT segment gross profit decreased by $588 thousand or 12% year-over-year. Gross profit in the professional sales service segment decreased by $487 thousand or 9% year-over-year. Gross profit in the equipment segment increased $113 thousand, or 20% in the third quarter 2020 compared to the same period in 2019.

SG&A expenses for the third quarter of 2020 decreased by 14% to $8.5 million compared to $9.8 million for the same quarter of 2019. The decrease is primarily attributable to decreases in personnel and other costs in the IT segment and decreases in travel and related costs in the professional sales service and equipment segments.

Research and development costs decreased by 11% to $174 thousand in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to lower software development costs in the equipment segment

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $1.1 million, compared to net income of $562 thousand for the third quarter of 2019. The increase of $584 thousand, or 104%, is primarily the result of the decrease in SG&A costs offset by the lower gross profit.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $4.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $2.1 million for the same period in 2019. Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2020 was $6.9 million, compared to $2.1 million at December 31, 201

Total deferred revenue remains substantial, at approximately $16.7 million as of September 30, 2020, which will be recognized in the future when the underlying equipment or services are delivered and accepted at the customer site. Our shareholders’ equity decreased to $5.3 million as of September 30, 2020 from $5.8 million as of December 31, 2019.
