American Marconi Wireless News - NURAN WIRELESS Reports First Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Highlights of the Company's financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2025, include the following:

• Revenue of $2,209,079 compared to $572,727, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of 285%, with approximately 75% attributable to the increase in Network as a Service (''NaaS'') revenue.

• Gross profit of $1,898,380 (86%) for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $ 45,488 (8%) in 2024, an improvement of $1,852,892 or 4073%.

• Total expenses of $3,564,436 compared to $2,811,458 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of 27% mainly due to increased financial expenses related to short term debt service costs to support the Cygnum Capital facility.

• Net Loss of $1,689,530 compared to $2,355,685 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, a decrease of 28%.

Although EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure, NuRAN is encouraged by the ability of NaaS revenues in Cameroon and elsewhere to cover group operating costs with new capital being raised to continue to build and generate cash. Management reports that the company has reached positive Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) for its first quarter of operations in 2025. Financial expenses include $1.6 million of interest as well as $246k of non-cash forex charges. In addition, administrative expenses include $66,458 of depreciation and amortization expenses. Adding these back leads to positive Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) of just over $450k or 20% of revenue.

"Building new sites and improving network performance demonstrate the progress in expanding connectivity to rural and underserved areas. While challenges remain, the Company is encouraged by the current growth and operational achievements, which are expected to support its ongoing financing strategy," stated Francis Letourneau, President and CEO of NuRAN Wireless Inc.

• On January 10, 2025, NuRAN announced that it has received the full payment of an outstanding balance of arrears from its Mobile Network Operator (MNO) partner in Cameroon for an amount of approx. CA$ 788,000.

• On March 3, 2025, NuRAN announced the successful delivery and installation of 20 network sites in rural Africa in the month of February 2025.
