LOS ANGELES, June 06, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SRAX, Inc. (NASDAQ: SRAX), a financial technology company that unlocks data and insights for publicly traded companies through Sequire, its SaaS platform, is providing full year financial results.
SRAX exceeded guidance of $31.5M for 2021, with SRAX totaling $28.6 million in revenue, and its former subsidiary, BIGtoken, totaling $3.4 million in revenue. Due to the deconsolidation of BIGtoken as of December 31, 2021, the following full year earnings report includes BIGtoken’s results from operations as discontinued operations. Due to an increase in bookings, SRAX is providing guidance of $47M-$50M for 2022.
Financial Highlights
Q4 Financial Highlights
“Not only was 2021 a record revenue and growth year for SRAX, it was also a transformational year for us and we were able to successfully meet our 2 main objectives for the year:
1) Continue to grow our highly profitable Sequire business and
2) Deconsolidate BIGtoken
The numbers we will report in our next report for Q1 2022 will not include any BIGtoken noise and we hope will make it easier for the investment community to appreciate the exciting business we have built at Sequire,” said Christopher Miglino, Founder and CEO of SRAX.
“While we are very proud of our results for FY 2021, we appreciate that the reported results include large, non-recurring, non-cash charges totaling $24 million for BIGtoken as we move the asset to discontinued operations. However, we believe that analyzing our revenue and adjusted EBITDA for the year will give investors a better perspective of the health and opportunities for our business. For 2021 we reported revenue growth of 336% and EBITDA of $3.8 million.
Q4 2021 results reflected another strong quarter with revenue of $9.6 million and adjusted EBITDA of $0.9 million. While these results exceed our expectations, we believe the figures would have been even better had management not been distracted by the BIGtoken transaction and had the company not been required to incur certain expenses related to the BIGtoken transaction.
Despite the turbulence in the stock market, our business remains very strong with record weekly bookings taking place in Q2 of 2022. Our customers remain excited about the value proposition Sequire offers and our backlog remains stronger than ever giving us strong visibility into our results. For Q1 2022, we expect revenue to be approximately $11.5 million, which would be our highest quarter ever. For full year 2022, we expect revenue to be $47-50 million,” added Christopher Miglino.
