LAS VEGAS, NV - March 31, 2022- Remark Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MARK), a diversified global technology company with leading artificial intelligence (“AI”) solutions and digital media properties, today announced financial results for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Management Commentary

“Fourth quarter 2021 revenue of $6.3 million represented a 33% increase compared to the fourth quarter of 2020, and powered a 58% year-over-year increase. Adoption of our AI-powered solutions came from diverse industries including construction, infrastructure, banking and education,” noted Kai-Shing Tao, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Remark Holdings. “Our AI-driven security solutions are currently being evaluated for several U.S.-based infrastructure projects in the rail and public safety industries as well as for border control.”

Fiscal Year 2021 Business Highlights

•Beginning in the third quarter of 2021, pandemic prevention controls at school campuses became a national priority in China. Additionally, regional and local governments implemented policies to increase automated campus administration. Such initiatives increased demand for smart campus solutions, and by the end of 2021 Remark’s solutions were delivered to over 400 elementary schools, with a market opportunity of 160,000 schools in major cities.

•AI solutions were utilized in the construction industry to monitor safety protocols at building sites, and to ensure safety codes for heavy equipment and personnel in construction zones were being followed. Business development is expected to continue throughout China for manufacturing and other industrial applications.

•KanKan continued work with China Mobile to install KanKan AI’s smart community offerings. Despite pandemic related slowdowns, implementations continue at over 150 residential communities. Solutions include access control for vehicles, residents, and delivery personnel, additional applications include elderly and child safety, elevator access control, restricted area access control, behavioral analysis, and messaging via communication screens.

•Remark began development of VegasVerz, an augmented and virtual reality app platform powered by Remark AI, in partnership with a world renowned hospitality conglomerate and an acclaimed music company in order to enhance the customer experience by offering fun interactive games that bridge the physical and virtual worlds. In addition, Remark partnered with isMedia to launch a non-fungible token (“NFT”) platform, with a drop anchored by the intellectual property collection of its Bikini.com subsidiary, expected to launch in mid-2022. The first phase of the carefully-curated NFT platform will feature collectible NFTs from Bikini.com’s influencers.

•Remark AI achieved a top-five ranking in computer-vision testing (the Face Recognition Vendor Test, or “FRVT”) conducted by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology. Specifically, 198 systems were tested in the FRVT for their ability to verify that a person is wearing a face mask.

•During the year, Remark announced a collaboration with Brightline, the only provider of modern, eco-friendly ntercity rail in the United States, to implement Remark’s Smart Safety Platform for unauthorized intrusion detection while working with Brightline to incorporate AI in additional technologies for other applications.

Fiscal Year 2021 Financial Results

•Revenue for fiscal year 2021 totaled $16.0 million, up 58% from $10.1 million during fiscal year 2020.

◦Revenue in China grew by $4.3 million in 2021 to $12.2 million due to increased completions of AI-related projects, including bank branch conversions and ongoing projects with school districts.

◦Revenue from the U.S. was positively impacted by the completion of an AI data intelligence project with a new customer which offset a decrease in revenue from our biosafety business. Total US revenue increased by $1.5 million, or 68%, to $3.8 million.

•Gross profit improved to $4.5 million in fiscal 2021 from $3.7 million in fiscal 2020 commensurate with increased revenue. Increased cost of revenue from a data analytics project was almost entirely offset by lower cost of revenue from our biosafety business.

•The company incurred an operating loss of $13.9 million in 2021, a slight improvement from the operating loss of $14.2 million in 2020. Sales and marketing expense declined as startup costs associated with the biosafety business did not repeat. Increased technology and development expense came from new product development for the Smart Sentry product that is expected to be utilized by railway customers. Fiscal year 2021 general and administrative expense increased primarily from $3.5 million of share-based compensation from the recognition of the 2020 stock option issuance that did not have an accounting grant date until July 2021.

•Net income totaled $27.5 million, or $0.27 per diluted share in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, compared to net loss of ($13.7 million), or ($0.16) per diluted share in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. Net income was positively impacted by recording a $43.6 million gain on the revaluation of the investment in Sharecare, which was slightly offset by $2.3 million of interest expense.

•At December 31, 2021, the cash balance totaled $14.2 million, compared to a cash position of $0.9 million at December 31, 2020. Cash increased primarily due to $32.2 million in net proceeds from debt issuances and $5.7 million in proceeds from a stock issuance, which were partially offset by debt repayments and payments of other operating liability payments.

“For fiscal year 2022, we anticipate continued growth in both our US and China AI businesses. Additionally, we have a robust pipeline of business opportunities in Europe which represents a previously untapped market. Finally, we will be introducing several new initiatives in the NFT and metaverse spaces in the coming months that are powered by our AI technology,” concluded Mr. Tao.
