Max Munn, founder and recently appointed CEO of Applied UV, Inc., commented, “Q1 2023 was a transformative and pivotal quarter for Applied UV. Cross-market selling opportunities between MunnWorks and LED Supply Co are beginning to ramp as a result of the acquisition, and we fully expect to see further expansion throughout the remainder of the year. Our expectation for realizing synergies across the entire business segments remains intact. Our collaboration with Canon is gaining momentum as we just completed the first lease for one of our customers, and we expect to announce additional strategic initiatives expanding our global reach and market share in food preservation in Q3 2023. Through these strategic transactions and partnerships, we have positioned the Company as a fully integrated solutions provider offering total air and surface pathogen elimination platforms and specialty LED lighting and custom premium furnishings for multiple sectors with total top line revenue expected of approximately $45-50 million for 2023.

Munn continued, “As we stated in Q4 2022, we recognized the accelerating shift in demand for a complete “systems within a system” solution that plays a more permanent role in improving Indoor Air Quality (IAQ), standards that were outlined by the U.S. Government last year. Increasingly, enterprises are seeking end-to-end systems across entire facilities that include software monitoring capabilities. Accordingly, we pivoted our marketing, merger and acquisition strategy, and research and development activities as well as accelerated our IoT development, manufacturing processes and next generation product development roadmap.”

Munn further stated, “Hospitality and LED Supply Co continues to rebound rapidly as hotels and developers resume schedules of new construction, project and building upgrades, remodels and repair and maintenance activities that were postponed due to the pandemic and subsequent closing of the U.S. economy. Hotels and developers are seeking onshore manufacturing alternatives to mitigate supply chain and geopolitical risks, especially in China, and we have established well-performing manufacturing capabilities that can meet this demand. Our acquisition of VisionMark further enables us to design-assist, fabricate, deliver and install high-end hotel living space furnishings and expands our reach into the luxury hospitality market, new construction multi-family development projects and retrofits beyond our core mirror business.”

Munn concluded, “Integration of the six companies we acquired continues, and we are beginning to experience the expected cost savings across all our divisions. Looking ahead in pathogen elimination and disinfection, we are building a pipeline of new opportunities across a number of verticals including, food preservation, cannabis, wineries and education, which we believe will drive future growth and improved financial results.”

Segments

The Company has three reportable segments: the design, manufacture, assembly and distribution of disinfecting pathogen elimination systems for use in food preservation, healthcare, hospitality, education and public spaces, cannabis, correctional facilities, and commercial, municipal and residential markets (Disinfection/Healthy Building Technologies segment); the manufacture of fine mirrors and custom furniture specifically for the hospitality industry (Hospitality segment); and the Corporate Segment, which includes expenses primarily related to corporate governance, such as board fees, legal expenses, audit fees, executive management, and listing costs.

Q1 2023 Summary Financial Results

Net Sales

Net sales of $10.7 million represented an increase of $7.3 million, or 217.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to net sales of $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase was primarily attributable to the Hospitality segment, which increased $4.7 million, largely as a result of the strategic acquisition on March 25, 2022, of the operations of VisionMark in Brooklyn, NY, which contributed $3.9 million of the increase, and also due to the organic growth of our legacy MunnWorks business, which contributed $0.8 million of the increase. The Disinfection/Healthy Building Technologies segment increased $2.6 million, primarily due the acquisition of PURO Lighting and LED Supply Co. on January 26, 2023.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased $0.8 million from $1.1m, or 34% vs. sales, for the three months ended March 31, 2022, to $1.9m, or 18% vs. sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease from 34% to 18% was driven primarily by the higher sales mix of our Hospitality segment as compared to the same period last year. For Q1 2023, Hospitality accounted for 57% of total sales for the quarter as compared to 42% in the prior year quarter. The last of the lower margin projects that we acquired that were in process from the VisionMark asset acquisition have been substantially completed. Additionally, Q1 2023 was impacted by “one-time” lower margins in our Disinfection/Healthy Building Technologies segment as we sold approximately half of our consumer Airocide inventory at special discounted pricing.

Operating Expenses

Selling, General, and Administrative – S,G&A costs for the three months ended March 31, 2023, increased to $5.3 million as compared to $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase of $2.2 million was driven primarily by the expansion of the Disinfection/Healthy Building Technologies segment with the acquisitions of PURO Lighting and LED Supply Co. These acquisitions accounted for $1.4 million of the increase. In Corporate, legal expenses increased $0.6 million primarily as the result of a “one-time” arbitration case.

Operating Loss

The Company recorded an operating loss of $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to an operating loss of $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase of $0.4 million in the operating loss was primarily due to the decrease in the gross profit percentage year over year as explained above, and the impairment charge of $1.1 million that was incurred last year. On a percentage basis, the operating loss improved to 33% in the first quarter of 2023 as compared to 94% in the first quarter of 2022.

Other Income/Expense

The Company incurred interest expense of $0.4 million due to the borrowings of Streeterville Capital and Pinnacle Bank., primarily to help fund the acquisitions of PURO Lighting and LED Supply Co. and to also fund additional working capital requirements.

The Company incurred a non-cash loss on change in fair market value of contingent consideration of $0.6 million because of the make whole provision within the PURO Lighting and LED Supply Co. merger agreement. The change related to the decrease in our stock price from the date of acquisition of January 26, 2023, as compared to March 31, 2023.

Net Loss

The Company recorded a net loss of $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to a net loss of $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase of $2.9 million in the net loss was mainly due to the $1.4 million increase in S,G&A costs incurred as a result of the acquisitions of PURO Lighting and LED Supply Co. in support of the expansion to the Disinfection/Healthy Building Technologies segment; the $0.6 million increase in Corporate legal expenses largely as a result of a “one-time” arbitration case and the non-cash loss on change in fair market value of contingent consideration of $0.6 million because of the make whole provision within the PURO Lighting and LED Supply Co. merger agreement (see comment above in Other Income/Expense).

Liquidity

On July 1, 2022, the Company filed a $50,000,000 mixed use shelf registration (Form S‑3) and entered into an At The Market sales agreement ("ATM") with Maxim Group, LLC for a total of $9,000,000, as a readily available source of funding if needed. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company sold 804,811 ATM shares through the sales agent with gross proceeds of $964,083. In connection with the sale of these ATM Shares, the compensation paid by the Company to the Sales Agent was $28,922. As of March 31, 2023, an additional 1,764,311 shares have been sold for gross proceeds of $2,314,860, and the compensation paid by the Company to the Sales Agent was $69,446, leaving a balance of $5,721,057 on the ATM facility. The shelf registration statement will expire on July 12, 2025.

The Company has filed a Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission with its plans to commence a public offering of its securities for an amount that satisfies the Company’s’ current working capital needs.

The Company believes our sources of liquidity and capital will be sufficient to finance our continued operations and growth strategy.
