DraganflyReports Q4 and 2024 Results
Saskatoon,SK., March 27, 2025 – Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO) (CSE: DPRO) (FSE: 3U8) (“Draganfly” or the “Company”), an award-winning, industry-leading drone solutions and systems developer, is pleased to announce its fourth quarter and fiscal 2024 financial results. Revenue for the fourth quarter was up 76% year over year. Total 2024 revenue saw a modest increase as the Company’s capacity to meet demand in the Military and Public Safety sectors did not start to come on stream until late Q3.
KeyFinancial Highlights for 2024:
| ● | Total<br> revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $6,561,055, an increase of 0.1% from the prior year. Product sales increased $81,383<br> in 2024 as compared to 2023, while services revenue decreased $75,170. The Company continued its product line transition focus on<br> preparation of public safety expansion and production capabilities. |
|---|---|
| ● | Gross<br> Profit was $1,398,204, a decrease of $665,910 or down 32.3% from the prior year. As a percentage of sales, gross margin decreased<br> from 31.5% in 2023 to 21.3% in 2024. This year’s gross profit included a one-time non-cash write-down of inventory of $627,105<br> while last year’s gross profit included a non-cash downward adjustment of $331,671. Excluding these adjustments, gross profit<br> decreased by $370,476 year over year. As a percentage of sales, adjusted gross margin decreased from 36.5% in 2023 to 30.9% in 2024. |
| ● | The<br> Company recorded a comprehensive loss including all non-cash items of $14,062,534 compared to a comprehensive loss of $23,709,851<br> in 2023. The comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2024, includes non-cash changes comprised of a gain in fair value<br> of derivative liability from warrants of $1,842,618, a recovery of impairment of notes receivable of $40,020, and a write down of<br> inventory of $627,105 and would otherwise have been a comprehensive loss of $15,318,067 compared to a comprehensive loss of $23,400,524<br> excluding non-cash items in the same period last year. |
| ● | Cash<br> used in operating activities decreased by $6,939,383 or 37% year over year. |
| ● | The<br> Company’s cash balance on December 31, 2024, was $6,252,409. |
KeyFinancial and Operational Highlights for Q4 2024:
| ● | Fourth<br> quarter revenue was $1,613,162 compared to $916,299 for Q4 2023 largely due to a year over year increase in product sales slightly<br> offset by lower services sales. |
|---|---|
| ● | Gross<br> Profit was $215,740 for Q4 2024 compared to $258,879 for Q4 2023 representing a decrease of $43,139 year over year. Gross profit<br> for Q4 2024 would have been $383,255 if it wasn’t for a non-cash write down of inventory of $167,515 while Q4 2023 would have<br> been $382,303 if it wasn’t for a one time non-cash write down of inventory of $123,424. Gross profit as a percentage of sales<br> for Q4 2024 was 13.4% but on an adjusted basis was 23.8%. |
| ● | The<br> Company recorded a comprehensive loss including non-cash items for Q4 2024 of $4,715,931 compared to a comprehensive loss of Q4 2023<br> of $4,191,796 for the same period in 2023, an increase of 12.5% over 2023. The comprehensive loss for the fourth quarter of 2024<br> includes non-cash changes comprised of a loss in fair value derivative liability of $946,116 as well as a one time write down of<br> inventory of $167,515 and would otherwise be a comprehensive loss of $3,602,300 compared to a comprehensive loss of $4,222,170 excluding<br> non-cash items in the same period last year. The decrease in loss was primarily due to lower professional fees, wages, and share<br> based compensation charges. |

NoteRegarding Non-GAAP Measures
In this press release, we describe certain income and expense items that are unusual or non-recurring. There are terms not defined by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Our usage of these terms may vary from the usage adopted by other companies. Specifically, gross profit and gross margin are undefined terms by IFRS that may be referenced herein. We provide this detail so that readers have a better understanding of the significant events and transactions that have had an impact on our results.
Throughout this release, reference is made to “gross profit,” and “gross margin,” which are non-IFRS measures. Management believes that gross profit, defined as revenue less operating expenses, is a useful supplemental measure of operations. Gross profit helps provide an understanding on the level of costs needed to create revenue. Gross margin illustrates the gross profit as a percentage of revenue. Readers are cautioned that these non-IFRS measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Readers are also cautioned not to view these non-IFRS financial measures as an alternative to financial measures calculated in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). For more information with respect to financial measures which have not been defined by GAAP, including reconciliations to the closest comparable GAAP measure, see the “Non-GAAP Measures and Additional GAAP Measures” section of the Company’s most recent MD&A which is available on SEDAR.
