Improved Gross Margin from Enhanced Operating Efficiencies 
Product Development Pipeline at Highest Level in Recent Years 
New Freedom Alert Plus PERS Product in Pre-Order Phase

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Aug. 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  LogicMark, Inc. (Nasdaq: LGMK), a provider of personal emergency response systems (PERS), health communications devices, and technology for the growing care economy, announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and recent operating highlights.   

Summary:   

  • Gross margin in the second quarter of 2023 improved to 69%, compared with 59% for the prior year period.
  • Revenues were $2.3 million, compared with $3.4 million for the prior year period.
  • Cash balance on June 30, 2023, was $7.6 million, compared to $7.0 million at year-end 2022.
  • Pre-orders are now underway for the new Freedom Alert Plus PERS product with the proprietary Care Village software suite, with shipments expected to begin at month-end.

Chia-Lin Simmons, Chief Executive Officer of LogicMark, commented, “Our second quarter results reflect efforts to increase operational efficiencies, including supply chain logistics, leading to the highest gross margin in ten quarters.

“Our ongoing product research and development efforts have helped us build a product pipeline that stands at the highest level seen in over 20 years.   These innovative solutions form part of our strategy to build a Caring Platform as a Service (CPaaS). Under this new ecosystem, our Care Village Software platform will host all the hardware on a common operating system accessible on both iOS and Android mobile devices.

“The recent launch of the Freedom Alert Plus PERS unit is a great example of the CPaaS system and how we view our expanding role in the care economy. The new Freedom Alert Plus is a wearable device that introduces fall detection, instant connection to caregivers, and a touchscreen design that is unique to the PERS industry.   We can now capture the needed data to monitor our customers’ well-being in real-time, using artificial intelligence and machine learning to optimize the best care. We believe this is a milestone for a PERS product to move beyond alerts and into predictive safety space.

“Our team is new, but our progress is encouraging.   We’re making great strides with the testing and refining of new products and anticipate further launches in the second half of this year. The Freedom Alert Plus launch further assists our existing product development efforts, allowing for the integration of other innovative connected devices and solutions on a common platform. Continued execution of our strategy to design and deliver hardware and software solutions to the growing care economy will help contribute to revenue growth in the months ahead,” concluded Simmons.

Second Quarter 2023 Results  

Revenue for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023, was $2.3 million compared with $3.4 million in the same period last year. The decrease in year-over-year revenues was due to one-time replacement sales in the same period last year of Freedom Alert 911 Plus 4G PERS units replacing older 3G units, as the national cellular network carriers announced in 2022 that they would no longer support 3G network products.

Gross profit margin percentage in the second quarter increased to 69%, compared with 59% in the prior year period, because of improvements in the Company’s supply chain management, including a return to transpacific shipping from our Asia-based contract manufacturers. Gross profit in the second quarter of this year was $1.6 million compared to $2.0 million in the same period last year.

Total operating expenses in the second quarter of 2023 were $3.9 million, increasing by $0.7 million compared with the same period last year and up just slightly quarter-over-quarter. The increased operating expenses were related to the build-out of our sales team, the initiation, and continuation of social media and web-based advertising to support our direct-to-consumer sales efforts, as well as one-time legal and administrative costs associated with the Company’s reincorporation in Nevada and reverse stock split.

Net loss attributable to common shareholders for the second quarter was $2.3 million compared with a net loss of $1.2 million in the same period last year.   On a fully diluted basis, the net loss per share was $1.83, compared with a net loss of $2.50 per share in the prior period.

As of June 30, 2023, the cash balance was $7.6 million, compared with $7.0 million at the end of December 2022.

On April 21, 2023, the Company effected a 1-for-20 reverse split of its outstanding common stock and Series C redeemable preferred stock. As a result of the reverse splits, each 20 pre-split shares of common stock outstanding and each 20 pre-split shares of Series C redeemable preferred stock outstanding were automatically exchanged for one new share of each respectively, without any action on the part of the holders.   The purpose of the reverse split was to regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing rule requiring our listed common stock to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. Nasdaq notified LogicMark on May 8th, 2023, that it had regained compliance.
