TOMI ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS, INC. REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2021 FINANCIAL
RESULTS
FREDERICK, MD, May 17, 2021 (BUSINESS WIRE) —
TOMI
Environmental Solutions, Inc.®
(“TOMI”)
(NASDAQ:TOMZ), a global company specializing in disinfection and
decontamination utilizing its premier Binary Ionization Technology
(BIT) platform through its SteraMist brand of products, today
announced its financial results for the first quarter
2021.
TOMI Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Halden Shane stated, “Our
first quarter 2021 revenues had a steep comparison to last
year’s first quarter, when the onset of COVID-19 pandemic
created an unprecedented demand in the marketplace for disinfection
and decontamination solutions, including demand for our products.
While the economy has begun to reopen, this year’s first
quarter results reflect headwinds from the impact of many of our
customers’ continued remote work environment as well as
delays in capital expenditure projects across our customer base. As
a result, it has been difficult for us to fully implement our
strategies to generate sustained growth following the spike of
demand we experienced in 2020. For example, our in-person demos
with potential customers remained suspended in the quarter and many
custom engineered systems (CES) were postponed. That said, we made
considerable progress advancing key building blocks for our long
term growth, including expanding our internal sales force and
continuing the development of three exciting new products. We are
particularly excited about the upcoming launch of our SteraPak
product, a much anticipated offering which further differentiates
our 6-log kill solutions in the marketplace and better position us
to continue our mission to make the world a safer
place.”
Dr. Shane continued, “The pandemic accelerated the
introduction of our product to a broader, highly satisfied customer
base, many of whom ordered our hardware and solution quickly at the
outset of the pandemic and are beginning to integrate our solution
into their ongoing disinfection procedures. This pandemic has truly
changed how people think about proactive decontamination and we are
optimistic about our ability to capitalize on that new thinking as
we continue to execute our long term plan to become the standard in
decontamination worldwide. We believe these factors will drive
sustained, higher margin sales at levels above pre-pandemic levels
as more businesses reopen and commercial activites
accelerate.”

Service continues to progress. In March 2021, "Hydrogen peroxide
residue on tomato, apple, cantaloupe, and Romaine lettuce after

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contain forward-looking statements that are
based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections
of future performance based on management’s judgment,
beliefs, current trends, and anticipated product performance. These
forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements
relating to anticipated financial performance and operating
results; upcoming launch of new products; expected growth in sales
and market demand; timing and process relating to research studies
and testing; impact of COVID-19 pandemic on our business operation;
and our ability to execute sale strategies. Forward-looking
statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual
results to differ materially from those contained in the
forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not
limited to, the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on our business and
customers; our ability to maintain and manage growth and generate
sales, our reliance on a single or a few products for a majority of
revenues; the general business and economic conditions; and other
risks as described in our SEC filings, including our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 filed by
us with the SEC and other periodic reports we filed with the SEC.
The information provided in this document is based upon the facts
and circumstances known at this time. Other unknown or
unpredictable factors or underlying assumptions subsequently
proving to be incorrect could cause actual results to differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Although
we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking
statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results,
level of activity, performance, or achievements. You should not
place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. All
information provided in this press release is as of today’s
date, unless otherwise stated, and we undertake no duty to
update such information, except as required under applicable
law.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our unaudited consolidated financial statements
presented on a basis consistent with U.S. GAAP, we disclose certain
non-GAAP financial measures for our historical performance,
including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. We
define EBITDA as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude: interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is a non-GAAP
financial measure and is intended to serve as a supplement to our
results provided in accordance with GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA
as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude: interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization; stock-based compensation expense. We
define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net
revenue. We believe that these historical non-GAAP financial
measures provide useful information to both management and
investors by excluding certain items and expenses that are not
indicative of our core operating results or do not reflect our
normal business operations. In addition, our management uses
non-GAAP measures to evaluate our performance internally and to
benchmark our performance externally against competitors. Our use
of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations in that such
non-GAAP financial measures may not be directly comparable to those
reported by other companies. Although we believe
that the use of non-GAAP financial measures enhances its
investors’ understanding of its business and performance, our
use of non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an
alternative to GAAP basis financial measures and should be read in
conjunction with the relevant GAAP financial measures. Other
companies may use the same or similarly named measures, but exclude
different items, which may not provide investors with a comparable
view of our performance in relation to other companies.
Because of
these limitations, the non-GAAP financial measure used in this
release should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute
for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
We seek to compensate for the limitation of our non-GAAP
presentation by providing a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP
financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP as set
forth below. Investors are encouraged to review the related U.S.
GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP
financial measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP
financial measures.
