DTG Dynamic Technologies Group Inc

Dynamic Technologies Group Inc. (TSXV: DTG, OTC:ERILF) ( the “Company”) today reported its unaudited consolidated financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021. The consolidated financial statements and MD&A have been filed on SEDAR and can be viewed at sedar.com or at dynamictechgroup.com.

“The third quarter was better than plan and within our banking covenants, with our debt being reduced by $15 million year to date. SkyFly-Soar America opened on July 9th and its revenue and profitability is also ahead of plan, placing the Company’s option to purchase 50% well into the money. SkyFly has also provided a significant boost to our re-financing efforts because it has clearly demonstrated how much value can be created by leveraging our considerable IP of developing and partnering in the ownership of world class attractions,” said Guy Nelson, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The pivot in our strategy and the successful refinancing of our Company targeted for early 2022 is designed to result in a more resilient, agile and much more valuable company, with an increased focus on recurring profit from co-ventures and a much-improved profit outlook on a much lower level of sales.”

Summary of third quarter consolidated results

• Cash generated from operating activities was $9.2 million in the third quarter of 2021 and $12.5 million year to date 2021, which allowed the company to reduce its debt by $8 million in the third quarter and $15.0 million year to date.
• Revenues were $9.3 million in the third quarter of 2021, a decrease of $7.3 million from the third quarter 2020.
• Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $0.8 million in the third quarter, a decrease of $1.2 million from the third quarter 2020.
• Overhead costs decreased $5.3 million, predominantly in the ride division, in the nine months of 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, getting them in line with where the company wants them to stabilize at in the post pandemic world of new ride sales.
• Net loss from continuing operations was $3.4 million in third quarter 2021 compared to a $2.7 million loss in the third quarter 2020.
• Cash on hand at September 30, 2021 was $2.6 million as compared to $2.4 million as of December 31, 2020.
• Contract Backlog was $93.4 million as of September 30, 2021 with 70% of the backlog (4 contracts) on hold because of client and/or pandemic caused delays.

1 Adjusted Earnings (loss) before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) is not defined by IFRS. The definition of Adjusted EBITDA does not consider the Company’s share of profit of an associate investments, gains and losses on the disposal of assets, non-controlling interest share of net income (loss) and non-cash components of stock-based compensation. While not IFRS measures, Adjusted EBITDA is used by management, creditors, analysts, investors and other financial stakeholders to assess the Company’s performance and management from a financial and operational perspective.

The Company was very active in the third quarter executing its four-pronged operational plan to accommodate the reduced backlog from its ride division and the lower level of production anticipated from its pivot towards developing more of its own co-ventures and less ride sales for third parties:

• accelerate its development plans for the co-venture business (Dynamic Entertainment);
• continue to aggressively market its parts and service division to its customers as they started the process of reactivating their theme and amusement parks (Dynamic Attractions);
• aggressively market our innovative and very talented engineering capability to diversify the Company’s revenue sources beyond the attractions industry (Dynamic Structures); and
• restructure and continue to reduce the cost structure of the ride manufacturing business (Dynamic Attractions) to adequately address the ride industry capital expenditure slowdown.

The Company has continued to reduce in its cost structure significantly in 2021, reflecting the reduced backlog and the lower level of sales that are expected because of the almost two years of ride capital expenditure planning time that was lost because of the pandemic. In the first nine months of 2021, the Company’s indirect production cost overhead decreased $2.6 million and its SG&A overhead decreased $2.7 million when compared to the same period of 2020 after adjusting for the government wage subsidies recorded in both periods.

Cash generated in the first nine months of 2021 from operating activities was $12.5 million. This was a big improvement from the $2.1 million of cash used in continuing operations in the first nine months of 2020. The increased liquidation of working capital allowed the company to reduce its current debt by $15 million year to date 2021.

The Company is working aggressively to strengthen its balance sheet by working with its investment bank to actively implement a financing plan to improve our working capital, reduce our current debt and fund several specific co-ventures the company is developing. The Company expects to succeed with this effort early in 2022.

Update on Co-ventures

The Company continues to be bullish on its ability to penetrate the tourist location, entertainment market by leveraging its world class attraction IP. It is the Company’s view that its co-venture strategy is well suited to capitalize on the entertainment opportunities in a post-pandemic world as pent-up demand and increased customer savings seek out memorable guest experiences. Replicating SkyFly’s success is the plan.

The Company’s pipeline of co-venture prospects is geographically broad and progressing, in spite of travel restrictions. Our co-venture offices in Toronto and Orlando have been able to cover North America, the UK and Australia effectively and our offices in Singapore and Shanghai have allowed us to continue to develop our prospects in Asia. We have three senior executives in Asia, and this is helping to continue to advance our prospects in this key market. The robustness of our co-venture outlook is what is driving interest in the Company’s financing initiative.
