Management Commentary

“Despite the highly unusual operating environment due to the pandemic, we continued to build on our sales momentum during the second quarter, which resulted in relatively consistent financial results compared to 2019 and which has positioned VirTra for a strong second half of the year,” said Bob Ferris, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of VirTra. “Financially, the quarter was highlighted by a $4.2 million increase in our backlog as compared with the same quarter last year and the continuation of a solid balance sheet. Operationally, the quarter was highlighted by the $1.6 million contract we received from the Department of State for the Republic of Mexico, expansions of our V-VICTA training curriculum, and progress increasing VirTra’s presence in the military market.

“While the prolonged impacts of COVID-19 delayed many of our installations during the second quarter, suppressing revenue, our sales and marketing teams worked diligently to successfully increase sales volumes. Given the national focus on law enforcement training and the significance of the use-of-force decisions entrusted to them, the need for VirTra’s solutions has likely never been greater. It remains to be seen how the pandemic will affect installations in the coming months, but given the indispensable nature of our unique products, which provide law enforcement and military personnel with access to the best decision-making, marksmanship, and use-of-force training available, we remain cautiously optimistic that the second half of the year will be stronger than the first.”

Second Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Total revenue decreased 9% to $2.8 million from $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease in total revenue was due to decreases in installations of simulators, accessories, curriculum and training resulting from COVID-19 travel restrictions.

Gross profit increased 4% to $1.6 million (57.0% of total revenue) from $1.5 million (49.6% of total revenue) in the second quarter of 2019. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to reduced warranty costs.

Operating expense was $2.4 million compared to $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2019. The consistency in operating expense was mainly due to similar levels of general and administrative expense, as well as research and development expense.

Loss from operations was $822,000, compared to a loss of $883,000 in the second quarter of 2019.

Net loss totaled $601,000, or $(0.08) per diluted share, compared to net loss of $634,000, or $(0.08) per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA loss was $579,000, compared to a loss of $675,000 in the second quarter of 2019.

Financial Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020

Total revenue was $6.1 million compared to $6.1 million in the first six months of 2019. The consistency in total revenue was due to a similar number of simulators and accessories delivered compared to the same period in 2019.

Gross profit was $3.2 million (51.9% of total revenue) compared to $3.3 million (54.3% of total revenue) in the first six months of 2019. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to differences in the product mix and the quantity of systems, accessories, and services sold.

Operating expense was $4.5 million compared to $4.7 million in the first six months of 2019. The decrease in net operating expense was due to reduced selling, general, and administrative costs for travel, tradeshows, and professional service as a result of COVID-19 restrictions compared to the same period in 2019.

Loss from operations was $1.3 million compared to a loss from operations of $1.3 million in the first six months of 2019.

Net loss totaled $991,000, or $(0.13) per diluted share, compared to net loss of $947,000, or $(0.12) per diluted share in the comparable period a year ago.

Adjusted EBITDA loss was $978,000 compared to adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.0 million in the first six months of 2019.

At June 30, 2020, backlog totaled approximately $14.3 million, a $4.2 million increase compared to backlog of $10.1 million as of June 30, 2019. Accounts receivable and unbilled revenues totaled approximately $4.8 million compared to $5.9 million at December 31, 2019, a decrease of $1.0 million.

About the Presentation of Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and before other non-operating costs and income (“Adjusted EBITDA”) is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA also includes non-cash stock option expense and other than temporary impairment loss on investments. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently. VirTra calculates its Adjusted EBITDA to eliminate the impact of certain items it does not consider to be indicative of its performance and its ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA is presented herein because management believes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to VirTra’s investors regarding VirTra’s financial condition and results of operations and because Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in VirTra’s industry, several of which present a form of Adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of VirTra’s results as reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative for net income, cash flows from operating activities and other consolidated income or cash flows statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the following table:
