Key Goals for Fiscal 2025

MineHub is pleased to re-iterate its four goals for Fiscal 2025:

  1. Continue to accelerate the Company's growth and increase the Annual Recurring Revenue (or "ARR")(1) by executing new customer contracts and adding ecosystem partners.
  2. Improve profitability with cost containment strategies and increasing margins.
  3. Expanding volumes of goods managed for customers leading to higher GMV of commodities transacted on the platform.
  4. Leveraging MineHub's successful implementations with industry leaders to continue to grow the ecosystem of companies on the MineHub network.

Management has provided a fulsome update on the Company's progress toward these goals in the Business Outlook section of the MD&A.

Outlook

MineHub's long-term profitability is dependent on achieving ARR growth. The Company continues to maintain a robust sales pipeline with several opportunities advancing to later stages over the past quarter, but sales cycles are longer than initially estimated. Management believes that the platform enhancements, cost containment strategies and ongoing ecosystem growth have laid the foundation for growth in ARR and progress toward profitability in the long-term. The Company remains on track to achieve internal sales targets for the fiscal year.

In the short-term, profitability over the next several quarters may be highly variable. Management is not expecting any non-recurring professional services revenue as the Company has shifted its strategic focus toward annually recurring SaaS subscription revenue. In addition, MineHub may make further investments in personnel to ensure that the Company can scale to support planned revenue growth. These incremental costs may precede revenue and reduce short-term profitability.

Webinar Details

The Company will also host an investor webinar for its Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 Financial Results on Thursday, September 19, 2024, at 9:00am PT (12:00pm ET). Andrea Aranguren, CEO, and Monika Russell, CFO, will provide a corporate update, review the quarterly financial results, and discuss the business's outlook; followed by a Question & Answer session.
