HERZLIYA, Israel, Nov. 27, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Safe-T® Group Ltd. (Nasdaq, TASE: SFET), a provider of secure access solutions for the hybrid cloud, today announced its financial results for the third quarter and nine-month period ended September 30, 2019.

Safe-T reported revenues for the three-month period ended September 30, 2019 totaled $1,349,000, an increase of 444% compared to $248,000 in the three-month period ended September 30, 2018.

Revenues for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 totaled $2,170,000, an increase of 116% compared to $1,003,000 in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018.

The Company’s cash balance at the end of the quarter was $973,000. In the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company raised gross funds of $4,000,000 through equity and debentures. See further details under “Recent Developments” below. 

 Recent Developments:

  • On November 5, 2019, the Company closed a public offering of American Depositary Shares (ADSs), prefunded warrants and warrants with gross proceeds of approximately $3,500,000.
  • On October 31, 2019, an investor exercised its right to purchase additional debentures in the amount of $500,000. The debentures are convertible into ADSs and warrants to purchase ADSs at $7.00, with the exercise price of warrants of $7.70, subject to adjustments.
  • On October 21, 2019, the Company effected a 20-for-1 reverse split of its share capital. No adjustment was made to the number of ordinary shares underlying each ADS of the Company, and each ADS continues to represent 40 of the Company’s ordinary shares, no par value. All descriptions of our share capital in this press release, including share amounts and per share amounts, are presented after giving effect to the reverse split.

Third Quarter 2019 Highlights: 

  • On July 1, 2019, Safe-T appointed Mr. Dr. Sunil Lingayat, T-Mobile’s Chief of Cybersecurity Strategy & Technology, and Mr. Richard Greenberg, former Information Security Officer for the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, to its U.S. Advisory Committee.
  • On July 24, 2019, investors exercised warrants in an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 at an exercise price of $27.60 per ADS.
  • On July 29, 2019, Safe-T announced a first tier-1 collaboration agreement for its IP Proxy product with Korean internet service provider.
  • On August 1, 2019, Safe-T launched the first ever Software Defined Perimeter (“SDP”) solution for enhancing security of the traditional VPN market. The solution simplifies organizations’ journey from traditional VPN to innovative and better, secured, SDP.
  • On August 30, 2019, an investor exercised its right to purchase additional debentures in the amount of $400,000. The debentures were convertible into ADSs at a conversion rate of $19.92 per ADS, subject to adjustments. The investor also exercised warrants in the amount of $100,000 at an exercise price of $19.92 per ADS.
  • On September 9, 2019, Safe-T announced that its SDP solution is publicly available on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Marketplace.

 Three months ended September 30, 2019 Financial Results

  • Total revenues amounted to $1,349,000 (Q3 2018: $248,000). The increase in revenues compared to the corresponding period of last year is mainly due to the first full reported period of consolidation of revenues of Safe-T’s wholly owned subsidiary, NetNut Ltd. (“NetNut”).
  • Cost of revenues totaled $604,000 (Q3 2018: $178,000). The increase is mainly due to the consolidation of NetNut’s cost of revenues, as well as amortization of NetNut’s intangible assets, partially offset by a decrease of costs resulting from the streamlining of support and post sales teams.
  • Research and development (R&D) expenses were $563,000 (Q3 2018: $603,000). The decrease is mainly attributed to a reduction in the Secure Data Exchange (SDE) solution development costs, partially offset by consolidation of NetNut’s development costs.
  • Sales and marketing expenses (S&M) totaled $1,050,000 (Q3 2018: $1,120,000). The decrease is primarily attributed to efficiency measures and cost reductions in overall sales, professional and marketing costs, partially offset by consolidation of NetNut’s sales and marketing costs.
  • General and administrative expenses (G&A) totaled $828,000 (Q3 2018: $443,000). The increase is a result of higher share-based and professional services costs due to the Company’s Nasdaq dual listing and costs associated with the closing of the acquisition of NetNut, as well as the costs of issuance of the debentures used to finance such acquisition and the consolidation of NetNut’s general and administrative costs.
  • IFRS net profit totaled $804,000, or $0.07 basic profit per ordinary share (Q3 2018: loss of $4,610,000, or $2.42 basic loss per ordinary share).
  • Non-IFRS net loss was $1,531,000, or $ 0.13 basic loss per ordinary share (Q3 2018: loss of $2,022,000, or $1.06 basic loss per ordinary share).

Nine months ended September 30, 2019 Financial Results

  • Total revenues amounted to $2,170,000 (nine months ended September 30, 2018: $1,003,000). The main reason for the increase is consolidation of NetNut’s revenues since the acquisition date of June 12, 2019.
  • Cost of revenues totaled $1,020,000 (nine months ended September 30, 2018: $607,000). The increase is mainly due to the consolidation of NetNut’s cost of revenues, as well as amortization of NetNut’s intangible assets, partially offset by a decrease of costs resulting from the streamlining of support and post sales teams.
  • R&D expenses were $1,936,000 (nine months ended September 30, 2018: $1,637,000). The increase is mainly attributed to consolidation of NetNut’s development costs.
  • S&M expenses totaled $2,687,000 (nine months ended September 30, 2018: $4,269,000). The decrease is primarily attributed to efficiency measures and cost reductions in overall sales, professional and marketing costs, partially offset by consolidation of NetNut’s sales and marketing costs.
  • G&A expenses totaled $2,457,000 (nine months ended September 30, 2018: $1,370,000). The increase is a result of higher share-based and professional services costs due to the Company’s Nasdaq dual listing and costs associated with the closing of the acquisition of NetNut, as well as the costs of issuance of the debentures used to finance such acquisition and consolidation of NetNut’s general and administrative costs.
  • IFRS net loss totaled $1,706,000, or $0.22 basic loss per ordinary share (nine months ended September 30, 2018: loss of $8,522,000, or $6.29 basic loss per ordinary share).
  • Non-IFRS net loss was $5,056,000, or $ 0.66 basic loss per ordinary share (nine months ended September 30, 2018: loss of $6,416,000, or $4.74 basic loss per ordinary share).

The following table presents the reconciled effect of the non-cash expenses/income on the Company’s net loss for the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, and for the year ended December 31, 2018:

Use of Non-IFRS Financial Results

In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, this press release contains non-IFRS financial measures of net loss for the periods presented that exclude the effect of share-based compensation expenses, amortization of intangible assets, non-cash issuance expenses and the revaluation of finance liabilities at fair value. The Company’s management believes the non-IFRS financial information provided in this release is useful to investors’ understanding and assessment of the Company’s ongoing operations. Management also uses both IFRS and non-IFRS information in evaluating and operating its business internally, and as such deemed it important to provide this information to investors. The non-IFRS financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with IFRS, and the financial results calculated in accordance with IFRS and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of these non-IFRS measures to their most directly comparable IFRS financial measures provided in the financial statement tables herein.
