Evan Gappelberg, CEO of NexTech comments, “We are pleased to share our preliminary third quarter results for the period ending September 30, 2020. These extraordinarily positive results are being driven by an acceleration in demand across all of our products including: Video conferencing, eCommerce and Augmented Reality. He continues, “We are uniquely positioned to see our business benefit from the new ‘stay at home' economy and the digital transformation that is underway. We are now landing bigger deals with global brands that are choosing our InfernoAR video conferencing and AR solutions because we have the only video conferencing platform which offers AR solutions. We are “firing on all cylinders”, and sales velocity is continuing to accelerate as we begin our Q4”.

He continues “With our increased sales force crushing it, we utilize Total Bookings as a metric for the business. Total Bookings includes all services included in signed contracts for the period. Currently our bookings are mostly delivered within a 3-month period of the signed contract however as we sign up more annual and multi-year licenses, which bill monthly, booking will go further out”.

*This News Release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures such as “Total Bookings.” We define Total Bookings as the total dollar value, including all subscription and non-subscription (one-time) services included in signed contracts with our customers. “Value” is the total revenue (recognizable or not) associated with each transaction, as opposed to the amount invoiced in the period. The total value will include total subscription fees over the period of the contract, expected variable fees, one time fees such as customization requests, professional services, and product sales. These non-IFRS measures are not recognized, defined or standardized measures under IFRS. Our definition of Total Bookings will likely differ from that used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. Total Bookings should not be considered a substitute for or in isolation from measures prepared in accordance with IFRS. Readers should not place undue reliance on non-IFRS measures and should instead view them in conjunction with the most comparable IFRS financial measures.
