Connecting Enterprise Technology Buyers with the Right Vendors

In the absence of large, national conferences or trade shows, CIOs and technology executives are seeking new ways to connect with their peers and find new business partners to help them drive innovation that can enable their companies to survive and grow.

Meanwhile, sales and marketing professionals at enterprise technology companies are looking for successful ways to engage with senior technology leaders and target accounts. HMG Strategy has harmonized these interests by creating the HMG Marketplace.

HMG Strategy’s high-powered Marketplace transforms the time-consuming request-for-information (RFI) process for CIOs and other technology buyers. Now, technology buyers can indicate the types of technologies and services they’re currently interested in and be matched with a prospective provider to make the connection.

“The HMG Marketplace essentially serves as a reference center to connect the right technology buyers with the right technology providers at the right time,” said Hunter Muller, President and CEO of HMG Strategy. “By filling out a short needs assessment survey, CIO, CTOs and other technology executives are connected with executive leaders and subject matter experts from technology companies to have focused, relevant discussions.”

Charter members that are actively participating in the HMG Marketplace include Appian, Aryaka, Darktrace, Forescout Technologies, Globant, Ivanti, Obsidian Security, PagerDuty, Slack, Sonatype, Tanium and Tessian. 

“It’s challenging for all of us that we can’t all be together at these events,” says Nicole Eagan, Chief Strategy & AI Officer at Darktrace. “But the next best thing is being able to connect through the Marketplace. We’re committed that you won’t be meeting with a salesperson – you’ll be meeting with myself and the Darktrace executive team. You’ve got CIOs and CISOs who will attend these meetings and we would love the opportunity to catch up and strategize together.”

How it Works

After attending an HMG Strategy Executive Leadership Summit, an attendee is redirected to the HMG Marketplace, where they are prompted to fill out a short needs analysis survey to indicate their current technology needs. From there, an HMG Strategy customer relationship specialist evaluates the survey information and schedules a meeting between the technology buyer and the most suitable technology partner in the Marketplace based on the buyer’s interests.

While in the Marketplace, the technology buyer is presented with a menu of options to choose from, including an option to view customer testimonials for that vendor and the business problem that was addressed. Sponsor partners receive highly qualified leads because of the strength of relationships inherent in the HMG network combined with the specific technology or service interest indicated by the buyer.
The HMG Marketplace offers multiple benefits to both technology buyers and vendors:

  • Precision matching of buyer needs with vendor capabilities — Enterprise buyers can fill out a short needs analysis survey that is used by HMG Strategy’s Customer Relationship Management team to identify the vendor that’s best suited to address their requirements.
  • Accelerates the sales process for both buyers and sellers – Buyers and sellers quickly identify one another through the needs analysis process and associated reference materials
  • Ensures Quality Discussions – CIOs, CTOs, CISOs and other technology buyers are qualified based on their true interest and by a set of characteristics (size, industry, types of technology/service interests, spend parameters, etc.). Buyers are paired with technology suppliers based on their domains and areas of expertise to avoid wasting time
  • Drives Higher Conversion and Close Rates for Providers –The HMG Marketplace accelerates high-quality deal flow in challenging times and enables technology providers to lower their customer acquisition costs

Urbanfund Corp. Announces Closing of the Acquisition of a 20% Interest in a 110 Unit Residential Portfolio Located in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

TORONTO, Nov. 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Mitchell Cohen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Urbanfund Corp. (TSX Venture: “UFC”) (“Urbanfund” or, the “Company”), announced today that the Company, along with Westdale Construction Limited (“Westdale”), has completed the previously-announced acquisition of the 110 unit The Manors Luxury Apartment portfolio located in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. An incorporated subsidiary, West Mic Mac Properties Inc. (the “Purchaser”), will purchase the portfolio with the Company being a 20% shareholder and Westdale holding the remaining 80% interest.

“Urbanfund is very excited to be part of this opportunity to purchase an interest in this 2-building luxury portfolio,” stated Mitchell Cohen. “This spectacular property on over 4 acres of treed-lands will be a worthy addition to our mixed-use asset base.”

“This acquisition is proximate to our current Dartmouth holdings with 110 ‘condo quality’ units overlooking the water,” stated Cohen.

The Manors Luxury Apartment Portfolio offers a variety of large 1, 2 and 3-bedroom suites of exceptional quality over 2 separate buildings built in 1981. The luxury project caters primarily to “empty-nesters” with its spacious units, ample terraces, generous outdoor amenity space and proximity to local transit, shopping and greenspace.

The Purchaser purchased the portfolio for $17,000,000 plus customary closing costs. The purchase price was funded by a $11,800,000 mortgage and the balance by pro rata equity subscriptions from the Company and Westdale. The Company’s subscription for a 20% interest in the Purchaser was satisfied with cash on-hand. The Company provided a limited guarantee of the mortgage proportionate to its interest in the Purchaser. Property Management will be the responsibility of Westdale and will be compensated at market rates.

“We have been waiting to pick up these types of assets in such a highly desired location and we executed on it,” noted Cohen. “With its proximity to our other Dartmouth assets, we will look to take advantage of economies of scale.” The portfolio is in the Micmac Village area of Dartmouth which is a popular, vibrant and affluent community characterized by a highly educated and affluent demographic. Situated along the Lake Banook Trail, the neighbourhood is defined by its beautiful landscaped and natural surroundings, including walking trails and parks. The buildings are located right across the street from Mic Mac Mall, Dartmouth’s major mall.

Bergen New Bridge Medical Center and NJ Reentry Corporation Launch ‘A New Bridge to Health’-A Complete Healthcare Program for Persons Leaving State Prisons

Virtual program will use telehealth to provide access to Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) and healthcare providers

Paramus, NJ, Nov. 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — On Monday, November 16, 2020, Bergen New Bridge Medical Center and the NJ Reentry Corporation will implement an innovative program co-created called ‘A New Bridge to Health’. This new program links individuals being released from prison under the new COVID-19 early release bill with a prominent New Jersey health care provider that can offer immediate access to Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for ongoing substance use disorder care. The program also offers connections to primary care providers, medication management, and treatment of chronic conditions via a telehealth platform.

“A New Bridge to Health” will offer Medication Assisted Treatment to those in substance use disorder care. NJRC participants will register in advance with NJRC personnel to schedule a telemedicine appointment with a physician. Many persons being released due to the pandemic have a limited two week supply of MAT. For many individuals released, their supply for MAT and other prescriptions will be exhausted as of Wednesday, November 18, 2020.

NJRC participants will complete intake process, providing MVC or NJDOC identification. Participants will be required to electronically sign to participate in treatments. The Bergen New Bridge Medical Center team will contact the participant at the respective NJRC site with an approved Bergen New Bridge IPAD.

  • Further reduced operating expenses by more than $1.2 million, keeping the company on track for a target of $2.5 million to $3 million in reduced operating costs on an annual basis.

Q3
Financial Summary

Revenue in the third quarter of 2020 totaled $13.0 million, up 12% from $11.6 million in the previous quarter and lower by 13% compared to $14.9 million in the same year-ago quarter. The sequential improvement in the third quarter of 2020 was due to increased military related sales. The decrease compared to the year-ago quarter was primarily due to the company’s media and entertainment business being lower by approximately $1.8 million because of issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic. This industry is expected to be impacted well into 2021.

In the third quarter of 2020, OSS core business contributed $9.0 million of revenue as compared to $9.7 million of revenue in the same year-ago period. The company’s Bressner subsidiary contributed $4.0 million of revenue in the third quarter of 2020, a decrease compared to $5.2 million of revenue in the same year-ago quarter.

Gross profit in the third quarter of 2020 was $4.9 million or 37.8% of revenue, representing an improvement in gross margin percentage compared to $5.0 million or 33.7% of revenue in the same year-ago quarter.

Gross margin for the company’s core OSS business increased to 44.6% in the third quarter of 2020 from 39.0% in the same year-ago quarter, which was attributed to higher margin military sales combined with a decrease of the lower margin media and entertainment business. Bressner’s gross margin decreased to 22.5% in the third quarter of 2020, as compared to 23.7% in the same year-ago quarter.

Operating expenses in Q3 decreased 15% to $3.9 million compared to $4.6 million in the same year-ago quarter. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue improved to 30.2% in Q3 2020 versus 30.9% in the year-ago quarter. The decrease was primarily due to the cost reduction initiative the company began in April, when it reduced its workforce and new cost containment efforts were implemented.

Net income on a GAAP basis totaled $858,000 or $0.05 per share in Q3 2020 compared to a net income of $545,000 or $0.03 per share in the year-ago period.

Non-GAAP net income increased to $1.2 million or $0.07 per share in Q3, as compared to $901,000 or $0.05 per diluted share in the same year-ago period.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP term, improved to $1.6 million in Q3, as compared to $1.0 million in the same year-ago period.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $5.5 million as of September 30, 2020, as compared to $4.7 million at June 30, 2020. The company believes its cash position and other available funds provide it with sufficient liquidity to meet its cash requirements for current operations.

First
Nine Month
of 2020
Financial Summary

For the first nine months of 2020, revenue was $38.0 million, a decrease of 5% from $39.9 million in the same year-ago period. The decrease was primarily due to $3.8 million in lower revenue from a media and entertainment customer, which was attributed to COVID-related issues. This decrease was partially offset by growth of new business from the U.S. Navy, autonomous vehicles customers, and PCIe-Gen 4 test equipment suppliers, which totaled $5.9 million.

OSS core business contributed revenue of $24.7 million in the first nine months of 2020, a decrease of 6% from $26.2 million in the same year-ago period. Bressner contributed revenue of $13.2 million, down from $13.7 million in the same year-ago period.

Gross profit was $11.6 million or 30.6% of revenue in the first nine months of 2020, compared to $12.9 million or 32.2% of revenue in the same year-ago period.

Gross margin for the company’s core OSS business declined to 35.7% in the first nine months of 2020 from 37.2% in the same year-ago period, which was attributable to the reduction of sales and change in product mix as compared to the same year-ago period. Bressner’s gross margin decreased to 21.1% in the first nine months of 2020, as compared to 22.8% in the same year-ago period.

Operating expenses decreased 19% to $12.6 million in first nine months of 2020 from $15.4 million in the same year-ago period. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue improved to 33.1% versus 38.7% in the year-ago period. On a pro forma basis, after adjusting for the prior year nine months goodwill impairment charge of $1.7 million, operating expenses decreased 8.6% to $12.3 million as compared to the same prior year period. This lower expense level reflects the $2.5 million to $3.0 million in anticipated annual savings resulting from the expense reduction program.

Net loss on a GAAP basis totaled $250,000 or $(0.02) per share in the first nine-month period of 2020, as compared to a loss of $2.0 million or $(0.13) per share in the first nine months of 2019. On a proforma basis, after giving effect to the goodwill impairment charge in the prior year, the change in net loss was relatively flat versus the prior year.

Non-GAAP net income totaled $773,000 or $0.05 per share, as compared to non-GAAP net income of $1.0 million or $0.06 per diluted share in the first nine months of 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP term, was $682,000 in the first nine months of 2020, as compared to $881,000 in the same year-ago period.

Management Commentary

“In Q3, we exceeded our minimum revenue guidance of $11.8 million, coming in at $13 million,” said OSS president and CEO, David Raun. “We also strengthened our gross margins to 37.8%, compared to 28.6% in the previous quarter and 33.7% in the same year-ago quarter. This helped drive net income up 57% to $858,000 or $0.05 per share.

“During the third quarter, we also further improved efficiency and strengthened our operations for both the near and long term. So far this year we have reduced operating expenses by more than $1.2 million and we remain on track for our targeted $2.5 million to $3 million in reduced costs on an annual basis.

“On the new product front, we recently expanded our PCI Express Gen 4 product line with the 4U Pro, a professional expansion platform that delivers twice the high-performance edge computing performance of our popular Gen 3 products. For this industry-leading solution, we are seeing strong customer interest from industry leaders in instrumentation, measurement, factory automation, automotive, military and other edge computing markets. One of our first shipments of the 4U Pro will be for the world’s largest composable high-performance computer being developed by one of our customers for the U.S. Army.

“Such new product introductions have helped our opportunity pipeline to continue to grow. During the quarter, we closed four additional major opportunities, including industrial, medical and two new military programs in edge computing. This brings the total to 13 program wins so far this year, compared to 14 wins this time last year despite the headwinds of the pandemic.

“While this quarter continued to be challenging for OSS and many of our customers, we made significant progress in multiple areas that positioned us for strengthened performance ahead. This includes diversifying our customer base, new product development, greater efficiency, lower operating expenses, improved profitability and a healthier balance sheet.”  

Outlook

For the fourth quarter of 2020, OSS expects revenue of approximately $13.0 million, with similar gross margins compared to the previous quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management believes that the use of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or adjusted EBITDA, is helpful for an investor to assess the performance of the Company. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as income (loss) attributable to common stockholders before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, acquisition expenses, impairment of long-lived assets, financing costs, fair value adjustments from purchase accounting, stock-based compensation expense and expenses related to discontinued operations.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP. Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of equity instruments that can impact a company’s non-cash operating expenses, management believes that providing a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes non-cash and non-recurring expenses allows for meaningful comparisons between the company’s core business operating results and those of other companies, as well as providing the company with an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating its core business operating results over different periods of time.

The company’s adjusted EBITDA measure may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in the same industry, as other companies in the same industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to non-recurring, unusual items. The company’s adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or as an indication of operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. Management does not consider adjusted EBITDA to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by GAAP financial results.

Adjusted EBITDA   $ 1,566,649     $ 1,041,286     $ 682,147     $ 880,793  

Adjusted EPS excludes the impact of certain items and, therefore, has not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that exclusion of certain selected items assists in providing a more complete understanding of the underlying results and trends and allows for comparability with the company’s peer company index and industry. Management uses this measure along with the corresponding GAAP financial measures to manage the business and to evaluate the company’s performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace. The Company defines Non-GAAP (loss) income attributable to common stockholders as (loss) or income before amortization, stock-based compensation, expenses related to discontinued operations, impairment of long-lived assets and non-recurring acquisition costs. Adjusted EPS expresses adjusted (loss) income on a per share basis using weighted average diluted shares outstanding.

Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. Management expects to continue to incur expenses similar to the adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted EPS financial adjustments described above, and investors should not infer from the company’s presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures that these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring.

The following table sets-forth non-GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders and basic and diluted earnings per share:
