Glance Technologies Inc. (CSE:GET / OTCQB:GLNNF / FKT:GJT) (“Glance” or the “Company”) ​today announced financial results for the three and six month period ended May 31, 2019.

Overview

Glance’s net loss was ($6,826,000) or ($0.05) per share in Q2 2019. The adjusted EBITDA for Q2 2019 was a loss of ($1,614,000) compared to a loss of ($2,750,000) in Q2 2018. While Glance continued to decrease its overhead expenses, a significant factor of this net loss was a decrease in the market value of Glance’s marketable securities of $3.6 million and the accounting for a one-time R&D expense related to the completion of Glance’s transaction with Fobisuite Technologies Inc. (“Fobisuite”) of $1.5 million. Glance’s working capital as at May 31, 2019 was $6,947,000 and it has no long-term debt.

During the quarter, Glance rolled out Real-Time Bill™ to nine merchants including Steamworks and the Rogue Bar chain, the Mr. Mike’s Steakhouse Casual Restaurant chain and popular Vancouver restaurants such as Fable Diner, Dunn’s Famous Restaurant and and Mary’s on Davie. Glance has received strong interest from many of its signed merchants and new prospects to adopt its new features. Glance believes its new capabilities significantly improve the value proposition of its platform to both consumers and merchants.

“Revenue for the second Quarter of 2019 was unsatisfactory,” says Jonathan Hoyles, Glance’s interim CEO, “On the positive side, we expect that the renewed efforts of our R&D, marketing and sales teams that are currently being undertaken will be reflected in our operating results in the fourth quarter of 2019. We have significant working capital and no long-term debt. We launched nine locations with our new Real-Time Bill product in this past quarter and continued progress is being made in both converting existing and signing up new merchants with our new product features. We place great confidence in our team as we look to grow and diversify sources of revenue. This confidence is echoed by our customers.”

Warren Goss, VP of Operations, Rammp Hospitality Inc. had this to say about Glance Pay: “Glance has helped MR MIKES Steakhouse Casual in our core philosophy of delivering the best experience for our guests. Having been a longstanding partner with Glance allows MR MIKES to benefit from their technology and introduce valuable new features such as, Real-Time Bill.  Our guests can now access their bill from their table and pay when they are ready, regardless of how busy their server might be.  Glance is in line with how we incorporate advancements in our industry to stay competitive.”

Carl McCreath, President of Restaurant Operations, Steamworks Group of Companies said this about Glance: “The increase in labour costs has been a very real problem for the restaurant industry. Glance has been a true partner to the Steamworks Group of Companies and has delivered through genuine service and innovation.  As we transitioned from Glance's PayByPhoto technology to Real Time Bill, we have seen an even bigger increase in guest adoption, guest satisfaction and time savings for our servers.  Glance Pay continues to make a positive impact on my bottom line.”
