MOVING IMAGE TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2023 RESULTS

 

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., May 15, 2023--Moving iMage Technologies, Inc. (NYSE AMERICAN: MITQ), ("MiT"), a leading digital cinema technology company, today announced results for its third fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023.

 

"Our results were impacted by project timing, with one large project and portions of a few smaller ones pushing out into next fiscal year," said Phil Rafnson, chairman and chief executive officer. "I want to stress that this is a normal part of our business today and does not indicate any demand weakness. However, this situation is a key driver for our strategy to spur growth and diversify our business into higher-margin, recurring revenue offerings and new markets. On that front, our gross margin expanded significantly versus last year. We are also seeing momentum start to pick up for our Esports and ADA products and with the technology upgrade cycle for projectors and servers."

Fiscal 2023 Commentary and Guidance

 

   Fiscal 2023
Guidance		  Fiscal 2022
Actuals		  Change
Revenue  +~10%  $18.4 Million  ~10%
Diluted Loss per Share  ($0.07) - ($0.06)  ($0.13)  $0.06 - $0.07
Diluted Shares Outstanding  10.9 million  10.6 million  0.3 million

 

 

 

 

"Our updated guidance reflects the impact of the project pushes and the associated timing changes for the third and fourth quarters, which will negatively impact our revenue and EPS by approximately $3.4 million and approximately $0.06 to $0.07 per share in fiscal 2023, but will positively impact fiscal 2024, which starts in July.

 

"We also expect the fourth quarter to set the stage for strong momentum heading into fiscal 2024. We recently announced new Esports orders and expanded our strategic relationship with SNDBX, giving us even more confidence about the Esports opportunity. Additionally, CinemaCon, the major movie industry tradeshow in late April, was a strong success for both the industry and MiT. The Esports offering continues to draw significant, actionable interest while the pipeline grows. Also, our new global distribution partnership with LEA Professional for power amplifiers drew a lot of interest and test orders from potential customers. Finally, our MiTranslator had a lot of actionable interest as well. With respect to the MiTranslator offering, industry support from the North American Theater Owners industry group for moving from ADA compliance to increasing the potential market for moviegoers through marketing initiatives plays right into our offering’s value proposition. Finally, we saw three top 10 theater chains start planning for testing the MiTranslator over the Summer," concluded Rafnson.
