For the trailing twelve month period ended March 31, 2020, RedHawk reported a net loss from operations of $1,019,436 on gross revenues of $313,497, and net revenues of $177,919.

Commenting on the 3rd Quarter results, G. Darcy Klug, RedHawk Chairman and Chief Executive Officer said, "The three month period ended March 31, 2021 was a transition period for our medical device business unit. During this same three month period, we restructured our inventory of products offered to our customers to include SANDD™, our line of needle incineration devices, and select personal protection equipment limited to UV disinfection lights, select types of the most popular particulate N95 respirators and certain makes of nitrile examination gloves.

"While medical facilities and some schools have re-opened, complete access to schools and most hospital procurement departments, remains challenging. Revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 (net of introductory discounts) were $29,786 as compared to $148,674 for the same three month period ended March 31, 2020. Sales during the three month period ended March 31, 2021 were limited primarily to select areas of our personal protection equipment and UV lighting units as much of our customer base remained closed. Sales for the comparable three month period ended March 31, 2020 were primarily from our SANDD mini™ needle incineration devices sold to schools and first responders. Schools were open until the pandemic closures started at the end of March 31, 2020. Subsequent to March 31, 2021, we have started to see renewed sales of the SANDD mini™ to a few schools in Texas that have re-opened.

"Our order backlog and order inquiry logs remain strong but availability of select particulate N95 respirators continues to be difficult. Additionally, we have sometimes been forced to reject unacceptable shipments of nitrile examination gloves. Both of these challenges have delayed the timely execution of our business plan.

"We launched the sale of our SANDD Pro™ at the end of the three month period ended December 31, 2020. Customer testing of the SANDD Pro™ during the three month period ended March 31, 2021, has been very positive and has been shown to increase workplace safety and provide our customers significant savings on bio-hazard waste disposal.

"While sales of the SANDD Pro™ to private physicians, nursing homes and assisted living facilities are important, we believe placement of the SANDD Pro™ into hospitals and outpatient centers is critical to the ultimate success of this medical device. However, the cessation of elective surgeries during the pandemic has resulted in severe financial strain on the many medical facilities around the country. To address this adverse financial impact on the nation's medical facilities, we developed a leasing model for our SANDD Pro™ specifically designed for medical facilities. This new leasing model has been well received by the medical community as it eliminates the hospitals' need for immediate capital expenditures. We have partnered with a new medical device distributor group who has been instrumental in negotiating the possible placement of more than 50,000 leased SANDD Pro™ needle incineration devices over the next twelve months. They have also arranged on our behalf, for discussions about a possible governmental mandate for using the SANDD Pro™ in hospitals, clinic and private physicians located in a certain United States Territory."
