In Q3, 2021, TrackX saw an increase in revenue over the Q2, 2021. This increase in revenue was largely attributable to the following factors:

  • TrackX completed a new customer implementation to help manage inventory and supply chain activity in the automotive industry for a large online used car retailer.
  • The Company’s completed an implementation for a new customer who is focused on reclaiming the large amount of fresh food waste from large national grocery retailers and processing it into livestock feed and pet food.

  • The Company’s total revenue increased from $0.428 million for Q2 2021 to $0.728 million for Q3 2021. This was driven by an increase in perpetual software license fees of $0.380 million.

  • Net loss for Q3 2021 was $1.32 million or ($0.01)/share compared to net loss of $0.503 million or ($0.02)/share for Q2, 2021. In Q3 2021, TrackX recognized a full quarter of expense for our stock base compensation that was issued in Q2 2021, as well as an increase in sales and marketing as a result of the Company increasing its market presence with rebranding and marketing content.
  • Cost of Sales of $0.471 million for Q3 2021, a 15% increase over $0.353 million for Q2 2021, due to additional technical resources that were hired to staff to support new revenue opportunities.

Sustainability is estimated to be a more than $3 trillion market opportunity. Supply chain solutions sit at the epicenter of this opportunity and TrackX is well equipped to help companies monetize this opportunity.

TrackX is now able to focus on delivery of solutions to customers which:

  • enable the digital supply network by providing a centralized, immutable and permissible source of record for a customer’s supply chain data,
  • facilitate better collaboration across the entire supply chain partner ecosystem by leveraging distributed ledger technology to make all relevant supply chain events transparent from origin to destination
  • improve end-to-end supply chain visibility by leveraging RFID, IOT sensors and other item tracking technologies to capture real-time event driven information related to the state, location, and ownership of assets and inventory
  • increase operating efficiency by aggregating data across all supply chain partners and leveraging comprehensive analytics, machine learning and artificial intelligence to eliminate loss, reduce labor, improve asset utilization and identify potential risk factors
  • support sustainability initiatives, prove ESG behaviors, provide the consumer verifiable product information, and comply with industry and regulatory mandates.

To support its growth strategy, in Q3, 2021, TrackX completed an equity financing for gross proceeds of $2,000,000 which is being used in hiring engineering, sales and marketing resources in order to respond to new customer opportunities and facilitate growth. Additionally, the equity financing included 40,000,000 warrants priced at $0.075 per common share which, if exercised, would generate up to an additional $3,000,000 in operating capital for the Company. In addition to completing the onboarding a new Chief Marketing Officer (previously announced), the Company selected and subsequently hired a new Chief Financial Officer, Marc Spezialy, to support the growth of the company in the delivery of new supply chain solutions to support sustainability and ESG initiatives.

As TrackX strengthens its team and continues to make enhancements to its technology platform to support its core supply chain objectives, it will be rebranding its GAME platform as Keychain to signify the Company’s shift in focus and new capabilities in support of tracing, tracking, collaboration and sustainability solutions. TrackX is positioning Keychain as the “key” to digital supply ”chain” transformation for enterprise accounts. It will further leverage technologies such as blockchain, graph databases, enhanced workflows and machine learning. While GAME has been focused on supporting the asset management requirements of a single enterprise, Keychain will leverage and expand upon the GAME platform to address the supply chain tracing, tracking, compliance reporting and sustainability requirements across multiple enterprises operating collaboratively as members of the overall supply chain partner ecosystem.
