OTTAWA, ON , April 1, 2021 /CNW/ - Intouch Insight Ltd. , ("Intouch or the Company") (TSXV: INX) (OTCQB: INXSF) today announced its operating and financial results for the year ended December 31, 2020 .
Revenue for 2020 was $12,795,277 , which was 34% lower than revenue of $19,255,202 in 2019 due to the impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic, which were partially offset by the addition of PerformaLogics and MobilForce. The net loss for the year was $6,898 due to a $478,575 write down to intangible assets and goodwill compared to net earnings of $116,244 in 2019. Company-defined adjusted EBITDA was $1,667 ,894 for 2020, up 8% compared to EBITDA of $1,540,312 in 2019. Gross Margin grew by 1% to 53% from 52% in 2019.
"2020 started with Intouch poised for investment and significant growth. The pandemic caused a dramatic shift in priorities towards revenue retention and cost containment. Fortunately, the strength of the underlying business was evident. It allowed us to make decisions throughout the year focusing on both employee and customer retention while delivering 8% more EBITDA in 2020 than in 2019 despite significant revenue losses. As a result, the company finished the year with key employees and customer contracts intact. This combined with a strong balance sheet will allow us to emerge from the pandemic with strength," said Cameron Watt , President, and Chief Executive Officer .
"I remain incredibly proud of how our employees have handled the difficult year behind us, and we all look forward to working closely with our long-standing client base as the North American economy continues to recover. Intouch will remain strong throughout 2021 while taking advantage of the opportunities that will inevitably come our way as the year unfolds," said Watt .
