Note 1 on Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, as a non-GAAP pro forma financial measure, provides meaningful information to investors in terms of enhancing their understanding of our operating performance and results, as it allows investors to more easily compare our financial performance on a consistent basis compared to the prior year periods. This non-GAAP financial measure also corresponds with the way we expect investment analysts to evaluate and compare our results. Any non-GAAP pro forma financial measures should be considered only as supplements to, and not as substitutes for or in isolation from, or superior to, our other measures of financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as net income attributable to QuoteMedia, Inc.

We define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to QuoteMedia, Inc., plus: 1) depreciation and amortization, 2) stock compensation expense, 3) interest expense, 4) foreign exchange loss (or minus a foreign exchange gain), and 5) income tax expense. We disclose Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is a useful metric by which to compare the performance of our business from period to period. We understand that measures similar to Adjusted EBITDA are broadly used by analysts, rating agencies, investors and financial institutions in assessing our performance. Accordingly, we believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors. The table below provides a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income attributable to QuoteMedia, Inc., the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

QuoteMedia, Inc. Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation to Net Income:

Three-months ended March 31,20232022
Net income$113,290$149,041
Depreciation and amortization627,987487,095
Stock-based compensation78,12559,864
Interest expense1,4521,224
Foreign exchange loss (gain)8,001(17,590)
Income tax expense730790
Adjusted EBITDA$829,585$680,424


In addition to the non-GAAP measures discussed above, we also analyze certain measures, including net revenues and operating expenses, on an FX-neutral basis to better measure the comparability of operating results between periods. Management believes that changes in foreign currency exchange rates are not indicative of the company’s operations and evaluating growth in net revenues and operating expenses on an FX-neutral basis provides an additional meaningful and comparable assessment of these measures to both management and investors. FX-neutral results are calculated by translating the current period’s local currency results with the prior period’s exchange rate. FX-neutral growth rates are calculated by comparing the current period’s FX-neutral results by the prior period’s results.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Strong operating results. The company reported Q4 revenue of $4.54 million, up 16% year over year and in line with our estimate. Adj. EBITDA was $869,000, beating our estimate of $690,000. Q4 revenue growth was sequentially better than Q3, 16% versus 15%, indicating improved revenue momentum.

Favorable outlook. The recent results benefited from two large Canadian banks added in November of last year. As such, the full revenue impact has not been fully realized. In addition, the company anticipates that there will be additional products and usage to drive revenue growth in 2023. Finally, the latest results were adversely affected by the expense of SOC2 Type II certification, which should moderate in coming quarters.

Release – QuoteMedia Announces 16% Revenue Growth for 2022

Research News and Market Data on QMCI

PHOENIX, March 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — QuoteMedia, Inc. (OTCQB: QMCI), a leading provider of market data and financial applications, announced financial results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

QuoteMedia provides banks, brokerage firms, private equity firms, financial planners and sophisticated investors with a more economical, higher quality alternative source of stock market data and related research information. We compete with several larger legacy organizations and a modest community of other smaller companies. QuoteMedia provides comprehensive market data services, including streaming data feeds, on-demand request-based data (XML/JSON), web content solutions (financial content for website integration) and applications such as Quotestream Professional desktop and mobile.

Highlights for fiscal 2022 include the following:

  • Annual revenue increased to $17,527,605 in 2022 from $15,174,372 in 2021, an increase of $2,353,233 (16%).
  • Net income for 2022 was $444,470 compared to $212,372 in 2021, an improvement in profitability of $232,098.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for 2022 was $2,727,411 compared to $1,649,679 in 2021, an improvement of $1,077,732.

“This was another very successful year for QuoteMedia,” said Robert J. Thompson, Chairman of the Board. “We continued our strong growth across virtually every success metric, including revenue growth, profitability and market share; and we expect to continue on this trajectory through the coming year.

“2022 marked the signing and launch of major multi-year agreements with two of Canada’s largest banking institutions, as well as large-scale agreements with several other multi-national financial firms. We also have many new and exciting opportunities for 2023, as we are currently in negotiations with several large firms. As a result, we expect our revenue growth in fiscal 2023 to match or exceed the annual revenue growth we achieved in 2022; and we expect to significantly improve upon our net income figure as well.

“2022 was also significant because, as a result of the efforts and investments we made to improve our infrastructure, security, and business continuity management, we achieved our SOC2 Type II certification. SOC2 accreditation provides independent assurance that Quotemedia maintains a high level of information security, data integrity and business resiliency. This certification allows QuoteMedia to make even greater gains, as SOC2 accreditation is increasingly becoming an absolute requirement for those providing services to large financial institutions, and we are already experiencing the benefits.

“Our growth in revenue and market share has been fueled by our development of exciting new data applications and products, as well as the expansion of our global market coverage, and this will definitely continue throughout 2023 and beyond. We are looking forward to continued success in the years to come.”

QuoteMedia will host a conference call Monday, April 3, 2023 at 2:00 PM Eastern Time to discuss the 2022 financial results and provide a business update.

Mixed Q3 results. The company reported revenue of $4.39 million, missing our estimate of $4.76 million by 7.7%. Revenues were partially impacted by currency exchange. Adj. EBITDA of $670,000 was in line with our estimate of $680,000. While revenue was below our estimate the company still grew revenue by 15% and is on pace for historic high revenue. 

Currency rate impact. Over the latest quarter, the Canadian dollar (CAD) depreciated against the U.S dollar (USD). Depreciation of CAD negatively affected company revenues, as the company receives roughly 33% of its revenue in CAD. Management noted that on a constant currency basis Q3 revenue growth would have been approximately 18% to 19%, considerably closer to company guidance of 20% revenue growth.

Release – QuoteMedia Announces 15% Revenue Growth for Q3 2022

Research, News, and Market Data on QMCI

PHOENIX, Nov. 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — QuoteMedia, Inc. (OTCQB: QMCI), a leading provider of market data and financial applications, announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

QuoteMedia provides banks, brokerage firms, private equity firms, financial planners and sophisticated investors with a more economical, higher quality alternative source of stock market data and related research information. We compete with several larger legacy organizations and a modest community of other smaller companies. QuoteMedia provides comprehensive market data services, including streaming data feeds, on-demand request-based data (XML/JSON), web content solutions (financial content for website integration) and applications such as Quotestream Professional and Quotestream Web Trader.

Highlights for Q3 2022 include the following:

  • Quarterly revenue increased to $4,390,667 in Q3 2022 from $3,818,713 in Q3 2021, an increase of $571,954 (15%).
  • Gross Margin percentage improved to 52% in Q3 2022, compared to 47% in Q3 2021.
  • Net income for Q3 2022 was $309,543 compared to $154,931 in Q3 2021, an increase of $154,612.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for Q3 2022 was $670,145 compared to $539,534 in Q3 2021, an improvement of $130,611.

“We are very pleased with what we accomplished this quarter, and over the year to date,” said Robert J. Thompson, Chairman of the Board. “We have closed several major agreements with high profile clients including two of Canada’s largest banks, with the second contract commencing in November 2022. We achieved record profits this quarter, and we expect to improve upon this moving forward. We anticipate that the pace of our revenue growth will continue in the coming quarters, with the launch of more enterprise deployments and exciting partnerships.

“We have made extensive time and financial investments into operations and infrastructure improvements this year, to ensure we are able to provide the highest levels of service, support and security for our clients, and we expect that these investments will yield dividends in the months and years to come.

“Due to the significant devaluation of the Canadian dollar, we are revising our revenue growth projection for the 2022 year. A substantial number of our contracts (and new contracts) are denominated in Canadian dollars, and this is re-measured into US Dollars when reporting our financial results. We are now projecting a 16% revenue growth for 2022, down from 19%. This will not have a meaningful impact on our bottom-line profitability, as our Canadian dollar revenue and expenses are almost equal. In fact, we anticipate significantly increased profitability in upcoming quarters.”

QuoteMedia will host a conference call Thursday, November 10, 2022 at 2:00 PM Eastern Time to discuss the Q3 2022 financial results and provide a business update.

This will not have a meaningful impact on our bottom-line profitability, though, as our Canadian dollar revenue and expenses are almost equal. In fact, we anticipate significantly increased profitability in upcoming quarters.

Note 1 on Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, as a non-GAAP pro forma financial measure, provides meaningful information to investors in terms of enhancing their understanding of our operating performance and results, as it allows investors to more easily compare our financial performance on a consistent basis compared to the prior year periods. This non-GAAP financial measure also corresponds with the way we expect investment analysts to evaluate and compare our results. Any non-GAAP pro forma financial measures should be considered only as supplements to, and not as substitutes for or in isolation from, or superior to, our other measures of financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as net income attributable to QuoteMedia, Inc.

We define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to QuoteMedia, Inc., plus: 1) depreciation and amortization, 2) stock compensation expense, 3) interest expense, 4) foreign exchange loss (or minus a foreign exchange gain), and 5) income tax expense. We disclose Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is a useful metric by which to compare the performance of our business from period to period. We understand that measures similar to Adjusted EBITDA are broadly used by analysts, rating agencies, investors and financial institutions in assessing our performance. Accordingly, we believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors. The table below provides a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income attributable to QuoteMedia, Inc., the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
