Management Commentary

"Our 5^th year of operations was a pivotal year for Glimpse as we became, to our knowledge, the first and only Nasdaq listed, pure play, diversified AR/VR software and services company following our successful $14.1 million initial public offering on July 1, 2021," said Lyron Bentovim, President and CEO of The Glimpse Group. "In the face of the pandemic, we achieved impressive organic revenue growth across all of our lines of business and have a growing list of top tier customers across industries. We are particularly encouraged by our core VR/AR software and services revenues which grew by 239% year-over-year. In an emerging industry, these are a testimony to the strength of our ecosystem and innovative subsidiary companies, which continue to establish themselves in diverse industry sectors."

Mr. Bentovim continued: "As detailed in the table below, we have a very clean and strong balance sheet, with no convertible debt or preferred equity outstanding, and no material cash obligations. In addition, we strive to run the Company efficiently as demonstrated by our improving EBITDA and Cash Flow from Operations. As large stakeholders in the Company, Management is well aligned with Glimpse's shareholder base at large and is strongly committed and incentivized to maximizing shareholder value."

"Smart, value add, accretive acquisitions are a core part of our growth strategy, which we continued to execute on with the recent acquisition of Auggd, our tenth subsidiary company. Auggd ushers us into the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) AR software and services vertical while also establishing an operating footprint for Glimpse in Australia. During the fiscal year, we also established a world class 3D/photogrammetry development center in Turkey, which now serves as our base for creating high resolution, life-like 3D digital models which are then utilized by QReal and additional subsidiary companies in their relationships with leading global brands and social media platforms as well as for their products".

"IP and patents are an integral part of our strategy, and in FY '21 we were issued two (2) new U.S. patents. One (1) additional patent issued soon thereafter (for four (4) U.S. Patents in total so far), with nine (9) additional filed U.S. patents in process and others in various stages of formation. Lastly, we added two independent directors to our board of directors with extensive operating, technology and investing experience, demonstrating our continued commitment to strong corporate governance."

Bentovim concluded: "As we look ahead, we expect to continue our rapid organic revenue growth while making additional opportune and accretive acquisitions that will propel us forward and build scale in the nascent AR and VR industry. In line with this, we expect our Q1 FY '22 (July-September '21) revenues will be significantly higher than those of the same quarter the prior year. As this industry continues to develop, we remain poised for steady execution of our long-term growth strategy of becoming a premier, enterprise focused, software and services player in the space. In parallel, we believe that Glimpse is positioned to play an enabling role in the development of the Metaverse as it evolves from its current mostly conceptual form to a business reality, and as other emerging technologies (AI, Computer Vision, Blockchain) potentially coalesce together with VR and AR over time.

Recent, post FY '21, Company Highlights:

FY ‘21 Financial Summary:

This growth was achieved despite significant COVID-19 related challenges and is due to the addition of new customers and increased business with existing customers.

• For the year ended June 30, 2021, core software and services revenue (i.e. VR/AR software and services revenue excluding projects), was approximately $1.73 million compared to approximately $0.51 million for the year ended June 30, 2020, an increase of approximately 239%.

• For the year ended June 30, 2021, gross profit margin was approximately 57%, compared to a gross profit margin of approximately 42% for the year ended June 30, 2020. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to an increase in services and Software License revenue, improved project management and higher utilization of internal staff. Our cash-based gross profit margin, excluding stock option-based cost of revenue expenses, was approximately 74% for the year ended June 30, 2021 compared to approximately 53% for the year ended June 30, 2020.

• Operating expenses for the year ended June 30, 2021, were approximately $6.67 million compared to $5.73 million for the year ended June 30, 2020, an increase of approximately 16%.

• For the year ended June 30, 2021, net loss from operations was approximately $4.71 million compared to a net loss of approximately $4.92 million for the year ended June 30, 2020, an improvement of approximately 4% period-to-period.

• Net loss for the year ended June 30, 2021, was $6.09 million, an increase of 22% when compared to a net loss of approximately $4.99 million for the year ended June 30, 2020, primarily driven by an increase in one-time expenses related to our IPO.

• Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2021 was approximately $1.21 million, compared to approximately $2.02 million for the year ended June 30, 2020, an improvement of approximately 40%.

Note about Non-GAAP Financial Measures

A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. Non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures. Other companies may use different non-GAAP measures and presentation of results.

In addition to financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release presents adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by taking net loss and adding interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expenses. The company believes that this non-GAAP measure, viewed in addition to and not in lieu of net loss, provides useful information to investors by providing a more focused measure of operating results. This metric is an integral part of the Company's internal reporting to evaluate its operations and the performance of senior management. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most comparable GAAP measure, is available in the accompanying financial tables below. The non-GAAP measure presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
