Irisity AB (publ) reports a good start of the year

Irisity AB (publ) reports a good start of the year.

CEO comments first quarter:

During the first quarter, we saw an improvement in net sales compared to the last two quarters, which were impacted by delays in our major project. Net sales during Q1 amounted to 27.5 MSEK which is an improvement to the 12.5 MSEK we reported in Q4 2022 and 13.3 MSEK in Q3 2022.

The gross margin strengthened to 83.8 percent (77.0) and the monthly recurring income (MRR) amounted to 4.4 MSEK which is in line with the previous quarter (4.4).

Our EBITDA amounted to SEK -5.5 million (-4.8) in the quarter. This was burdened by the many investments made in market ventures during Q1. We attended in the World Police Summit held in Dubai and the International Security Conference held in Las Vegas. We also held our first annual kick off for all employees, and a dedicated sales conference, where the company came together to continue the important work on building Irisity’s company culture and sales focus.
The cash and available credit lines were 31.0 MSEK (76.8) at the end of the quarter. This, combined with the share issue of 17.5 MSEK decided in the AGM, is expected to cover the liquidity needs until cash flow is positive.

We continue to invest in our product and services and in Q1, we announced a key Irisity software component which is compatible with Axis Communication’s camera application platform. This will enable Irisity’s AI-Powered Video Analytics to run on the newest generation of Axis Communications cameras. This has a positive impact for end customers because it lowers the deployment and operating costs by reducing the number of servers needed onsite to run the IRIS+ software.

I have received a lot of support internally in the organisation during my start and have prioritized my time on the sales team, our partners and end customers.

Looking ahead, we expect growth and gradual improvement in profitability during the year.
