Appulse Corporation (“Appulse”) (Listed on the TSX Venture Exchange – Symbol ‘APL’) today reported a net income of $239,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 ($.02 per share), with revenues of $2,226,000, compared to a net income of $99,000 ($.01 per share), and revenues of $2,436,000 for the same three-month period of the previous year. Operating cash flow (net income for the period adjusted for items not involving cash) for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 of $376,000 compares to operating cash flow of $236,000 for the same three-month period of 2020.

The impact of the revenue decrease in 2021 was offset by cost reductions and a more efficient product mix, resulting in a total gross margin equivalent to that of the comparable three-month period of 2020. Net income was further enhanced by a reduction in general and administrative costs and a gain in foreign exchange, reflecting a relatively stronger Canadian currency. First quarter machine sales combined with purchase orders now in hand for mid-2021 delivery now exceed $ 1,200,000.

The Corporation’s primary customer base is focused on food and beverage processing. While the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to impact revenues, the Corporation is an essential service provider with continuing operations at facilities in Calgary, Alberta and Waterloo, Ontario.
