Gresham Worldwide (“GWW”)
GWW revenues increased by $2.0 million, or 47%, to $6.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, from $4.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. GWW revenue in 2021 includes $1.8 million from Relec, which was acquired on November 30, 2020. In the prior year period, revenue was constrained by working capital issues. The increase in revenue from our GWW segment for customized solutions for the military markets reflects the benefit of our improved liquidity in 2021, as we were able to allocate additional funds to our defense business to improve their ability to fulfill backlog.
TurnOnGreen
TurnOnGreen revenues decreased by $282,000 or 20%, to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, from $1.4 million for three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease is primarily attributable to supply chain disruptions during the quarter.
Ault Alliance
Revenues from our cryptocurrency mining operations were $238,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to nil for the three months ended September 30, 2020, as we resumed our cryptocurrency mining operations during the first quarter of 2021. Our decision to resume cryptocurrency mining operations in 2021 was based on several factors, which had positively affected the number of active miners we operated, including the market prices of digital currencies, and favorable power costs available at our Michigan data center.
Revenues from our lending and trading activities decreased to a loss position of $(38.9) million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, from negative revenues of $(29,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Revenues from our trading activities during the three months ended September 30, 2021 included significant unrealized losses from market price changes of Alzamend’s common stock. Unrealized gain and losses have caused, and will continue to cause, significant volatility in our periodic earnings.
At September 30, 2021, the fair value of Alzamend’s common stock was $3.08, the shares’ closing price that day. Based upon the fair value of Alzamend common stock at September 30, 2021, during the three months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded an unrealized loss of $27.4 million related to our investment in Alzamend common stock. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded an unrealized loss on our investment in warrants of Alzamend of $6.0 million. Our investment in Alzamend will be revalued on each balance sheet date.
Gross margins
Gross margins were negative $36.0 million or 117.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to 35.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Our gross margins have typically ranged between 33% and 37%, with slight variations depending on the overall composition of our revenue.
Our gross margins during the three months ended September 30, 2021, were impacted by the unfavorable margins from our lending and trading activities. Excluding the effects of margin from our lending and trading activities, our adjusted gross margins for the three months ended September 30, 2021, would have been 34.7%, consistent with our historical range.
Operating expenses
Operating expenses increased to $13.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, representing an increase of $10.2 million compared to $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020.
The increase in operating expenses from the three months ended September 30, 2020 is attributable to the following:
| · | Research and development expenses increased by $55,000 to $524,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, from $469,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase in research and development expenses is due to costs incurred at GWW related to the development of products for defense applications. |
| · | Selling and marketing expenses were $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $260,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $1.7 million, or 667%. The increase was the result of greater personnel costs directly attributed to an increase in sales and marketing personnel and consultants primarily at Ault Alliance related to digital marketing and digital learning. The increase is also attributable to costs incurred at TurnOnGreen to grow our selling and marketing infrastructure related to our electric vehicle charger products. |
| · | General and administrative expenses were $11.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $8.5 million or 298%. General and administrative expenses increased from the comparative prior period, mainly due to: |
| o | non-cash stock compensation costs of $4.1 million; |
| o | the accrual of an $859,000 performance bonus related to realized gains on trading activities during the period; |
| o | general and administrative costs of $385,000 from Relec, which was acquired on November 30, 2020; |
| o | increased costs related to our Michigan data center, operated by Alliance Cloud Services; and |
| o | higher consulting, audit, legal and insurance costs. |
The Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Kenneth S. Cragun, said, “The financial results for the third quarter of 2021 reflected significant unrealized losses from market price changes of our investments. At the end of each quarter, we value our investments in certain companies based on the trading price of their stock, which has resulted in significant volatility in both revenue and operating results over the last two quarters. On a year-to-date basis, however, we did see significant revenue growth and improved operating results, with revenue up 167% over the prior year period and net income of $1.3 million compared to a net loss of $24.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. During the third quarter of 2021, we were able to make significant investments in our BitNile subsidiary and ended the quarter with $20.4 million in Bitcoin mining equipment, which will contribute to both revenue growth and improved profitability in future periods.”
The Company’s Founder and Executive Chairman, Milton “Todd” Ault, III said, “In spite of the volatility of our quarterly financial results, we believe the future prospects for the Company are extremely promising. Quite simply, we are in a strong financial position, and we are investing for the future. We have grown assets to $225.7 million and have announced key investments in our Michigan data center and Bitcoin mining equipment. We would like to acknowledge our GWW defense team as during the third quarter of 2021 they grew revenues by 47% compared to the prior third fiscal quarter. As a holding company, we have made investments in the sectors of Bitcoin mining, data center operations, defense, electric vehicle chargers, power electronic businesses, lending and investment platform, and we continue to believe the road ahead is bright.”
