MOUNT VERNON, NY / ACCESSWIRE / November 16, 2021 / Applied UV, Inc. (NASDAQ:AUVI) ("Applied UV" or the "Company"), a disinfection and purification technology company that applies the power of narrow-range ultraviolet light ("UVC") for surface areas and catalytic bioconversion technology for air purification to destroy pathogens safely, thoroughly, and automatically, today announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2021. The Company is also providing key operational metrics on pro forma combined results of operations for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021, in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, which assumes the acquisitions of Akida, KES/JJS, and Scientific Air Management (the "Acquired Companies") occurred on January 1, 2021. The Company believes such combined information is useful to compare how the combined companies would have performed over time against the performance of the Company without such acquisitions.

Financial Results

Third quarter net sales increased by 127.6% to $3,551,564 from $1,560,633 in the third quarter of 2020. Due to the continuing logistics and transportation challenges in many regions the Company experienced delays in fulfilling orders in the second quarter. As previously expected, many of those orders shipped to the customer in the third quarter while others are expected to ship in the fourth quarter.

Net loss for the third quarter of 2021 was (1,080,805), compared to a net loss of ($890,559) in the third quarter of 2020. The net loss in 2021 was due primarily to an increase in SG&A costs to improve future operations and expand the disinfection segment of the Company's business. The Company's net loss for the third quarter of 2021 improved more than 49% compared to the second quarter of 2021.

Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, increased by 63.9% to $7,748,499 from $4,727,631 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 [restated].

Net loss the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $4,251,987 compared to a net loss of $975,128 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The net loss in 2021 was due primarily to an increase in SG&A costs to improve future operations and expand the disinfection segment of our business.

The Company had approximately $11.7 million of cash available on its consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021.

As previously disclosed, on July 16, 2021, the Company closed an underwritten registered public offering of 480,000 shares of 10.5% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (non-convertible into common stock) raising gross proceeds of $12.0 million before deducting underwriting discounts and other offering expenses. On July 29, 2021, the Company announced that the underwriters of its Series A Preferred Stock exercised in full their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 72,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock from Applied UV at a price to the public of $25.00 per share for gross proceeds of $1.8 million, prior to deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. After giving effect to the exercise of the over-allotment option, a total of 552,000 shares were sold in the offering, resulting in gross proceeds to Applied UV of $13.8 million.

Management Commentary

Q Saeed, Applied UV's Chief Executive Officer said, "In the third quarter we delivered strong results in an environment that has been impacted by ongoing global supply chain challenges. Our teams have done a commendable job navigating supply chain bottlenecks to deliver products to our customers. Sales for Q3 and the nine-month period of 2021 grew over 127% and 63%, respectively, driven by continued strong demand for our SteriLumen product portfolio and a gradual recovery in the hospitality market for our MunnWorks subsidiary. We are well positioned to conclude the year on a high note, as we expect sales to continue to show an improvement and accelerate as we move through 2022. We are also pleased to report a significant reduction in our net loss for the third quarter as compared to the second quarter as we drive towards profitable growth."

Saeed added, "During the quarter, we continued to execute our growth strategy through synergistic acquisitions to expand the commercialization of our product portfolio to drive both short and long-term growth. The acquisition of KES in Q3, followed by Scientific Air Management in early Q4, marked a major step forward in building out our air purification business to create a broad portfolio of patented, air disinfection and purification technologies. Under the SteriLumen brand, we are now capable of addressing virtually every major commercial market, including hospitals and assisted living facilities, schools, hospitality, museums, stadiums, food processing facilities and other large public spaces. In addition to the strengthening of our product portfolio, these two acquisitions significantly enhance our financial profile, adding approximately $10-14 million in current annualized revenues while being immediately accretive to our earnings per share. We continue to build momentum, and we are just beginning to see the tangible results from our investments in these businesses."

"Our financial foundation has been strengthened and we are well positioned to continue our planned investments in our business, maintain our focus on top-line growth and margin improvement, and pave the way towards a more profitable future."
