American Aires Announces Q2 2024 Results With Strong 45% YoY Sales Growth; and Engages Clarkham Capital Ltd
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - August 26, 2024) - American Aires Inc. (CSE: WIFI) (OTCQB: AAIRF) ("Aires" or the "Company"), a pioneer in cutting-edge technology designed to protect against electromagnetic radiation and optimize human health, is pleased to announce filing of the Company's Financial Statements and Management's Discussion & Analysis (MD&A) for Q2 2024.
美國Aires公司(CSE:WIFI)(OTCQB:AAIRF)(以下簡稱「Aires」或「公司」)是一家開發尖端技術,旨在抵禦電磁輻射並優化人體健康的先驅者。該公司很高興宣佈提交公司第二季度財務報表和管理討論與分析(MD&A)的申報。
Overall, quarterly performance was in line with Aires management's expectations.
總體而言,季度業績符合Aires管理層的預期。
Cash and cash equivalents balance was reported at $3.8 million compared to $0.03 as of December 31, 2024 and $0.3 million a year ago. Inventory increased significantly to $1.5 million from $0.3 million in the same quarter a year ago as part of the management's strategy to safeguard the growth in sales.
現金及現金等價物餘額報告爲380萬美元,而去年同期爲0.03美元,一年前爲30萬美元。作爲管理層保障銷售增長戰略的一部分,庫存大幅增加至150萬美元,而去年同期爲30萬美元。
Sales increased YoY by 45% or $0.9 million to $2.8 million from $1.9 million reported in Q2/2023 following recent advertising and marketing initiatives. A notable contributor to Q2/2024 sales growth was the success of CEO Josh Bruni's appearance on the "Health Uncensored with Dr. Drew" show on aired on FOX Business Network on May 2nd, 2024 which catalyzed a notable uptick in order volume. In addition, the sales received considerable tail-wind from the previously announced partnership with video platform Rumble and launched a campaign featuring Russel Brand. The company also expanded internationally by opening a fulfillment center Bardon Hill, UK to improve sales and service to the domestic UK market.
銷售額同比增長45%,達到280萬美元,而Q2/2023報告的銷售額爲190萬美元,這得益於最近的廣告和營銷活動。CEO Josh Bruni於2024年5月2日在FOX商業網絡的「與唐諾士醫生無政府狀態」節目中的成功表現是促使訂單量顯著增加的重要因素。此外,銷售額受益於此前宣佈與視頻平台Rumble的合作伙伴關係,以及推出了一個以Russel Brand爲特色的廣告系列。該公司還通過在英國巴頓山開設一個履行中心,以改善對英國國內市場的銷售和服務而進行了國際擴張。
During Q2/2024, the Company entered into a number of strategic marketing partnerships and increased its advertising spend to drive this strong YoY growth. The Company notes that the ramp up of each partnership is a process that takes time and preparation. Such efforts include crafting partnership strategies that connect the Aires Tech brand with peak performance and health in the minds of consumers, content capture that demonstrates that consumer connection to the brand, editing and launching ads, monitoring and optimization. Management anticipates the full benefit, greater market awareness and sales growth, to be realized over the next 6-12 months. Despite an increase in the cost of advertising associated with the upcoming presidential election in the U.S., management remains committed to its strategy of strong YoY sales growth in 2024 and beyond.
2024年第二季度,公司與多個戰略營銷夥伴建立了合作關係,並增加了廣告支出,以推動這一強勁的同比增長。公司指出,每個合作伙伴的推動是一個需要時間和準備的過程。這些努力包括制定將Aires Tech品牌與消費者心目中的最佳表現和健康相連接的合作伙伴戰略,通過內容捕捉來展示消費者與品牌的聯繫,編輯和推出廣告,監測和優化等。管理層預計在未來6-12個月內將實現完全收益,提高市場知名度並實現銷售增長。儘管與即將到來的美國總統選舉相關的廣告成本增加,管理層仍致力於2024年及以後年份的同比銷售增長策略。
Building on the brand's momentum, Aires Tech has entered into a hallmark, multi-year global marketing partnership with Ultimate Fighting Championship ("UFC") and a marketing partnership with John Tavares of the National Hockey League's ("NHL") Toronto Maple Leafs. After the quarter end, the Company announced additional partnerships with Canada Basketball, Toronto Raptors' RJ Barrett, World Wrestling Entertainment ("WWE"), and strategic partnerships amplification firm Gray Wolf. These partnerships are intended to be used as building blocks in management's overarching strategy of supporting athletes in their pursuit of excellence while educating the public about the importance of EMF protection. Together, management aims these partnerships to position the Aires Tech brand as a recognized brand in the EMF protection and health optimization segment with access to mass markets.
藉助該品牌的勢頭,艾爾斯科技已與終極格鬥錦標賽("UFC")建立了一項具有里程碑意義的全球營銷合作伙伴關係,並與國家冰球聯盟("NHL")多倫多楓葉隊的約翰·塔瓦雷斯建立了營銷合作伙伴關係。在季度結束後,公司宣佈與加拿大籃球協會、多倫多猛龍隊的RJ·巴雷特、世界摔角娛樂("WWE")以及戰略合作伙伴放大公司灰狼建立了額外的合作伙伴關係。這些合作伙伴關係旨在作爲管理層全面戰略的基石,支持運動員追求卓越,並向公衆傳達電磁輻射防護的重要性。管理層希望通過這些合作伙伴關係,將艾爾斯科技品牌定位爲電磁輻射防護和健康優化領域的知名品牌,獲得大衆市場的接觸。
"Through our strategic marketing partnerships, we've been able to grow our brand and position our products' performance benefits, including improved sleep quality, recovery times, and cognitive function, prominently with global audiences of sports fans and elite athletes," said Josh Bruni, CEO of Aires Tech. "As we scale our brand and grow sales, our alliances with top-tier performance organizations like UFC, WWE and Canada Basketball showcase the real-world applicability and effectiveness of our EMF protection technology. By showcasing these benefits in competitive environments, we validate our technology and its potential to improve lives across society."
"通過我們的戰略營銷合作伙伴關係,我們能夠在全球觀衆和精英運動員中突出展示我們的品牌和產品在性能方面的益處,包括改善睡眠質量、恢復時間和認知功能。"艾爾斯科技首席執行官喬什·布魯尼說。"隨着我們的品牌規模擴大和銷售增長,我們與終極格鬥錦標賽、摔角娛樂和加拿大籃球協會等頂級表現機構的聯盟展示了我們的電磁輻射防護技術在現實環境中的適用性和有效性。通過在競爭環境中展示這些好處,我們驗證了我們的技術及其改善社會各界生活的潛力。

Gross Profit improved $0.6 million or 50% YoY to $1.7 million while Gross Marin as percentage of sales improved to 61% from 59% a year ago. Advertising and promotion expenses increased $0.5 million or 66% to $1.4 million reflecting additional investment into new content creation, strengthening of the affiliate program and increased spend on digital and social media advertising. Marketing expenses increased $0.2 million or 33% to $0.7 million, reflecting the addition of new marketing partnerships. Office and general increased 23% to $0.1 million and Consulting and payroll increased 34% to $0.3 million reflecting the Company's efforts to build up team to manage higher level of sales as well as bringing more public company functions in-house for better control and execution. Legal and professional expenses decreased dramatically by 57% from the previous year to $0.04 million. As a result, Adjusted EBITDA loss for Q2/2024 was reported at $0.8 million compared to a loss of $0.6 million a year ago, largely due to higher marketing and overhead costs, which is in line with Company expectations. Management continues to prioritize the balance between sales growth and EBITDA profitability as the Company further develops the already announced marketing partnerships.
Additionally, Andrew Michrowski will resign from Aires' Board of Directors and transition to the Company's Science Advisory Board. In his new role, Michrowski will help further build Aires' Research & Development roadmap that explores additional use-cases for the Company's cutting-edge EMF diffraction technology.

This news release refers to certain financial performance measures that are not defined by and do not have a standardized meaning under International Financial Reporting Standards including "Adjusted EBITDA" (termed "Non-IFRS measures"). Non-IFRS measures are used by management to assess the financial and operational performance of the Company. The Company believes that these Non-IFRS measures, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, enable investors to evaluate the Company's operating results, underlying performance and prospects in a similar manner to the Company's management. As there are no standardized methods of calculating these Non-IFRS measures, the Company's approach may differ from those used by others, and accordingly, the use of these measures may not be directly comparable. Accordingly, these Non-IFRS measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. The Corporation defines EBITDA as earnings before interest tax depreciation and amortisation. Adjusted EBITDA removes irregular and non-recurring items that distort EBITDA.
本新聞稿包含某些金融績效指標,這些指標在國際財務報告準則下沒有定義,也沒有標準化含義,包括「調整後的EBITDA」(被稱爲「非IFRS指標」)。非IFRS指標被管理層用來評估公司的財務和運營業績。公司認爲,這些非IFRS指標,除了按照國際財務報告準則編制的常規指標之外,使投資者能夠以與公司管理層類似的方式評估公司的運營業績和前景。由於沒有標準化的計算這些非IFRS指標的方法,公司的方法可能與其他公司不同,因此,使用這些指標可能不能直接可比。因此,這些非IFRS指標旨在提供額外信息,不應單獨或作爲按照國際財務報告準則編制的績效措施的替代品考慮。公司將EBITDA定義爲利潤前的利息稅折舊和攤銷。調整後的EBITDA刪除扭曲EBITDA的不規則和非經常性項目。
