May 15, 2023 at 09:00 AM EDT

Revenue and Profitability Continued to Improve Year-over-year

PLAINVIEW, NY / ACCESSWIRE / May 15, 2023 / Vaso Corporation ("Vaso") (OTCQB:VASO) today reported its operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

"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.

Net cash used in operating activities was $1.9 million for the first quarter 2023, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $625 thousand for the first quarter of 2022. As of May 5, 2023, the Company's net cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled approximately $24.5 million.
