INSIGNIA SYSTEMS, INC. ANNOUNCES

2021 THIRD QUARTER AND NINE-MONTH FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

MINNEAPOLIS, MNNovember 04, 2021Insignia Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: ISIG) (“Insignia”) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021 (“Q3”).

 

Overview

 

Q3 2021 net sales decreased 21.2% to $3.5 million from $4.4 million in Q3 2020.

 

 

Q3 2021 operating loss was $925,000 compared to operating loss of $863,000 in Q3 2020.

 

 

Q3 2021 net loss was $921,000, or $0.52 per basic and diluted share, compared to net loss of $886,000, or $0.51 per basic and diluted share in Q3 2020.

 

Insignia’s President and CEO Kristine Glancy commented, “Q3 2021 sales declined by comparison to strong sales in Q3 2020 that resulted primarily from the deferral of programs from Q2 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the continued pressure on our signage portfolio. While our overall sales decreased versus the prior year quarter, during the first nine months of 2021 our sales have increased 20.5%, driven by a sustained focus on our non-POPS portfolio, which increased 70% overall. Over the course of 2021 we have expanded our non-POPS portfolio into new retailers as well as added new CPG brands. We anticipate some seasonality in sales of our non-POPS portfolio, with those sales relatively stronger in the first half of the year based on both execution timing as well as sales cycles. We remain optimistic about the future of our non-POPS businesses, while we manage against expected continuing declines in signage sales.”

 

Ms. Glancy continued, “We are continuing to right-size our investments in signage based on the continued sales declines and competitive pressures, while investing in both people and resources to support the growth on non-POPS. We expect to shift resources away from signage to help manage overall expenditures.”

 

Q3 2021 Results

Net sales decreased 21.2% to $3,493,000 in Q3 2021, from $4,435,000 in Q3 2020, due to extraordinarily strong sales in Q3 of 2020, which resulted from the deferral of programs from Q2 of 2020 to Q3 of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Further declines in sales for Q3 2021 compared to Q3 2020 are due to a 21.5% decrease in POPS solutions revenue. Our POPS revenue continues to be negatively impacted by competitive pressures and brands not spending on syndicated signage due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Gross profit in Q3 2021 decreased to $545,000, or 15.6% of net sales, from $559,000, or 12.6% of net sales, in Q3 2020. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to a decrease in sales, partially offset by reduced payment obligations to retailers in the POPS network of stores.

 

Selling expenses in Q3 2021 were $425,000, or 12.2% of net sales, compared to $585,000, or 13.2% of net sales, in Q3 2020 due to a decrease in staff related expense.

 

Marketing expenses in Q3 2021 were $266,000, or 7.6% of net sales, compared to $192,000, or 4.3% of net sales, in Q3 2020. Increased marketing expense was primarily the result of non-POPS solutions promotional activities.

 

General and administrative expenses in Q3 2021 were $779,000, or 22.3% of net sales, compared to $840,000, or 18.9% of net sales, in Q3 2020 due to decreased staffing.

 

Gain on sale of business in Q3 2020 was $195,000, or 4.3% of net sales. The gain is from the sale of our Custom Print business.

 

Income tax expense for Q3 2021 was 1.0% of pretax loss, or an expense of $9,000, compared to income tax expense of 0.9% of pretax loss, or $8,000, in Q3 2020.

 

As a result of the items above, the net loss for Q3 2021 was $921,000, or $0.52 per basic and diluted share, compared to net loss of $886,000, or $0.51 per basic and diluted share, in Q3 2020.

 

As of September 30, 2021, cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $3.7 million, compared to $7.1 million as of December 31, 2020.
