Financial Highlights
Revenue of $5 million, up 241% from $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2023
Acquisition Services revenue grew to $2.9 million from nil in the third quarter of 2023 as the Company accelerated data collection for the Indonesian mapping program
Value-added Data revenue increased to $1.1 million, compared with $0.4 million in the third quarter of 2023
30% adjusted EBITDA margin, compared with a loss in the third quarter of 2023 as the Company benefited from operating leverage with higher revenue and attractive contribution margins
“Intermap is building long-term, sustainable value for shareholders and executing our business strategy,” said Patrick A. Blott, Intermap Chairman and CEO. “We’re deployed in Indonesia where we’re leveraging specialized sensors, proprietary processing and advanced AI/ML technology to deliver mission-critical, strategic geospatial solutions. We look forward to a long-term, multi-faceted partnership with Indonesia.”
“Our global perils and defense businesses are thriving because there is no substitute for Intermap’s exquisite global-scale, military quality location data,” Mr. Blott continued. “In a time of unprecedented natural catastrophes and conflict, Intermap provides clients around the world with precision elevation data that saves lives and property. As our customers see the value of this data in the wake of recent events, they are renewing and expanding their contracts.”
Intermap continues to execute on its Indonesia mapping program, leveraging AI/ML and other advanced proprietary technology. With recent advances in production processing automation combined with unmatched expertise and experience in feature extraction and radar interpretation, Intermap completed the first 5,900+ map sheets at 1:5,000-scale in fewer than 3.5 months from day one of data acquisition. This set of map sheets represents over 25,000 square kilometers of contiguous area coverage of elevation and multi-band, orthorectified radar imagery deliverables; it also includes an orthorectified, full-feature stack with land, feature and object classifications. The initial processing was accomplished in parallel with ongoing production of the remaining 85% of Phase 1 of the project. All remaining deliverables will follow in a shorter timeframe relative to the initial delivery.
Financial Results, Business Highlights and Business Outlook by Segment
Acquisition Services
Financial Results
Revenue for the quarter totaled $2.9 million, compared with nil for the prior year quarter. The increase is due to acceleration of data collection for the Sulawesi contract. Last year, Intermap experienced a delay in the award of key government contracts, reducing its acquisition services revenue
Business Highlights
Acquired 15% of the data as part of the Company’s Sulawesi contract, which represents approximately 10% of Indonesia’s land mass
Business Outlook
As Indonesia’s partner for phase one of Indonesia’s national topographic basemap program, Intermap is establishing the foundation for a multiyear Acquisition and Value-added Data partnership to support Indonesia’s One Map initiative through 2028
One Map’s progress and World Bank’s recent approval for a $653 million Integrated Land Administration and Spatial Planning project underscores the importance of precise 3D geospatial data to fulfill mission-critical strategic data infrastructure requirements
Intermap is well positioned to capitalize on this trend and anticipates further wins and the expansion of existing contracts throughout Southeast Asia
Value-added Data
Financial Results
Revenue increased to $1.1 million for the quarter compared with $0.4 million for the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to the expansion of the U.S. Air Force contract
Business Highlights
Selected with CACI, Inc. by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency as one of the qualified vendors for an important program, with a total project value of up to $290 million over five years – 10x the size of the initial budget
Won a second phase in its prime contract with the U.S. Air Force to support its development of navigation solutions for GPS-denied environments. Revenue in this second phase is 5x the size of phase one
Business Outlook
Customers continue to renew and add capacity as their usage surpasses their expectations and contract limits. Further bolstering subscription revenue, customers are adding on Intermap’s innovative solutions
Software and Solutions
Financial Results
Revenue decreased slightly to $1.0 million from $1.1 million for the third quarters of 2024 and 2023, respectively. While recurring subscription revenue increased 3%, 2023 included $0.2 of one-time set up fees that were not duplicated in the third quarter of 2024
Excluding one-time payments from two European accounts, Intermap’s continuing global customers grew subscription revenue 8% to $0.8 million in the third quarter compared with the same period a year ago
For the first nine months of 2024, Software and Solutions revenue represented 30% of total revenue
Business Highlights
Expanded the multiyear subscription contract value with a Top-15 global insurance carrier by over 50%
Business Outlook
The Company projects its insurance software subscription business to continue growing at a CAGR of approximately 20% over the next few years
Operating Costs
Increased to $3.5 million, compared with $2.1 million for the prior year quarter, driven by an increase of $1.2 million in Purchased Services & Materials and $162 thousand in deployment travel
Both cost increases were related to increased activity, subcontractor and other project related costs for the data acquisition project that accelerated in the third quarter of 2024
Balance Sheet & Capital Expenditures
Cash and accounts receivable totaled $1.5 million at September 30, 2024. Cash milestone payments for Indonesia are heavily weighted towards finished product deliveries during the fourth quarter of 2024 and first quarter of 2025.
In the third quarter, the Company raised aggregate gross proceeds of approximately CAD $3,305,956 through the issuance of an aggregate 7.3 million Class “A” common shares at a price of CAD $0.45 per common share. Aggregate net proceeds are being used for the execution of contracts with the Indonesian government, U.S. Air Force and other clients as well as for working capital.
Following a successful capital upgrade and certification of its sensor payload and airborne platform to meet stringent geospatial data specifications in Indonesia, total assets increased by $4.4 million to $8.9 million.
2024 Guidance Intermap affirms its 2024 guidance for total bookings in the range of $20 – 25 million, with revenue in the range of $16 – 18 million and Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 25%.
