" During this fourth quarter, the Company
successfully managed to recover from the temporary but significant
decrease in its revenues caused by the social distancing measures
related to the Covid-19 crisis. By mid-July, we have started
observing an increase in our year-over-year SaaS revenue growth
even though many social distancing measures were still in place
across North America. In a challenging year, we managed to beat all
last year key metrics whether in terms of GMV, revenues, gross
margin, EBITDA, cash flows from operations or working capital.
Those results speak by themselves by sending a strong signal that
our virtual solutions, such as our immersive 3D tours, are well
positioned to benefit from those permanent changes happening in the
real estate market and with consumer behaviors. Moreover, we have
only started charging customers for our new immersive 3D tours and
floorplans services in late September paving the way for additional
growth drivers in the upcoming quarters. We also expect strong 3D
camera sales to fuel SaaS revenue growth in the future”, said Simon
Bedard, CFO of Urbanimmersive.
“In this quarter, we have worked hard to deliver
to our customers our new floorplans and measurements services which
were launched as a premium service in September along with our
immersive 3D tours. With Urbanimmersive now able to offer this
unique and full set of marketing solutions to its customers at a
very competitive and sustainable price point and our solid
financial situation, we expect now to accentuate our sales and
marketing efforts and are very excited about the near future of
Urbanimmersive and its growth potential ", said Ghislain Lemire,
President and CEO of Urbanimmersive.
