Rekor Systems Announces Preliminary First Quarter 2021 Revenues

Company expects to achieve more than 160% revenue growth in Q1 2021 over the same quarter in 2020

COLUMBIA, MD / ACCESSWIRE / April 19, 2021 / Rekor Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:REKR) ("Rekor" or the "Company"), a provider of real-time roadway, customer and public safety intelligence to enable AI-driven decisions, announced today that it expects to report gross revenue exceeding $4.2 million for the first quarter of 2021 as compared to $1.6 million the same quarter of 2020, which represents growth of more than 160%.

In the first quarter, Rekor closed a secondary offering of 6,126,936 shares of common stock, providing $70.1 million in net cash proceeds. As a result of the closing of this secondary offering, all of the Company's issued and outstanding Series A and Series B Preferred Stock was converted pursuant to their respective terms into an aggregate of 1,416,785 shares of the Company's common stock. Detailed information concerning these transactions is contained in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 9, 2021.

"Our results in the first quarter have demonstrated a remarkably high level of growth on a year-over-year basis," said Eyal Hen, Rekor CFO. "We believe this is a testament to the strategic realignment of the Company that has focused on the longer-term drivers of demand from our commercial and government segments. We expect the cash raised recently to provide us with the ability to pursue other opportunities in these segments in addition to funding our working capital needs, operating expenses and research and development, and other capital expenditures."
