Reliq Health Technologies, Inc. Files Q1 FY2022 Quarterly Financial Statements, Provides Corporate Update

HAMILTON, Ontario, Nov. 30, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reliq Health Technologies Inc. (TSXV:RHT or OTCQB:RQHTF) (“Reliq” or the “Company”), a rapidly growing global medtech company that specializes in developing innovative Virtual Care solutions for the multi-billion dollar Healthcare market, today announced that the consolidated financial statements (“Financial Statements”) and Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, are now available on the Company’s profile on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).

“We have now filed our quarterly financials for Q1 Fiscal Year 2022,” said Dr. Lisa Crossley, CEO of Reliq Health Technologies, Inc. “As expected, the second half of Calendar Year 2021 is proving to be a period of rapid growth for Reliq. Revenues for the quarter ending September 30, 2021 were $1,608,168, which was 192% higher than revenues in the previous quarter (Q4 FY2021: $549,825). Gross margin increased to 72% in Q1 FY2022. The Company remains on track to reach a revenue run rate of $2 Million/month by the end of Calendar Year 2021. Going forward, we expect the majority of our revenue to come from software and services instead of hardware, which will allow us to achieve our targets of 75% gross margin and 45% EBITDA margin. As previously disclosed, during the pandemic the Company extended flexible payment terms to clients and received similarly generous payment terms from our key suppliers. Receivables older than one year are expected to be paid in full by our clients by the end of March 2022 and the Company expects to collect all other receivables in a timely manner going forward now that most of our clients have resumed normal operations.”

The Company is also pleased to provide the following corporate update.
