LOUISVILLE, Ky., Aug. 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LogicMark, Inc. (Nasdaq: LGMK), a provider of personal safety, personal emergency response systems (PERS), health communications devices, and technology for the growing care and safety economy, today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Summary:

• Revenues were $2.3 million, up slightly compared with the prior year period.
• Gross margin in the second quarter of 2024 was 67%, compared with 69% for the second quarter of 2023.
• Overall operating expenses were $3.6 million, compared with $3.9 million for the prior year period.
• The cash balance on June 30, 2024 was $3.0 million.
• The Company's intellectual property portfolio is expanding, with 14 patents filed since June 2021. This includes five provisional patents, three awarded patents, and the remaining patents, which have been finalized.
• The Company's product line now includes five hardware products, with new devices that include fall detection, geo-fencing, and proprietary leading-edge technology which includes cloud and mobile caretaker support app technology and a new personal safety app with a Bluetooth emergency button.

Chia-Lin Simmons, Chief Executive Officer of LogicMark, commented, "Our second quarter results reflect our expanded sales and marketing efforts to promote our products across various verticals, targeting higher revenue streams. We now offer five PERS solutions that include features such as advanced fall detection, geo-fencing for memory care, connected cloud and caretaker app support, a personal safety solution with the Aster safety app, and a robust and growing intellectual property portfolio which includes artificial intelligence and machine learning.

"The demand for solutions that enhance personal safety and independence remains strong. Our data indicates that the elderly population is living longer and prefers to age in place. With approximately 10,000 baby boomers turning 65 daily, the demand for healthcare and home industry workers surpasses supply. Concerns about personal safety are at an all-time high, and our solutions are designed to provide much-needed peace of mind.

"Our understanding of these evolving industry trends is clear, leading us to design solutions that are both reactive and predictive. As the personal safety and elder care markets continue to grow, our Care Village ecosystem of software and hardware is helping meet the changing needs of society and its families across the USA."

Second Quarter 2024 Results
Revenue for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024 was $2.3 million, up slightly compared with the same period last year. A higher average selling price more than offset softness in unit sales.

The gross margin was a more normalized 67% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, down from 69% for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Gross profit in the second quarter of this year was relatively unchanged at $1.6 million, compared with $1.6 million in the same period last year.

Total operating expenses in the second quarter of 2024 were $3.6 million versus $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of 6%. Reduced operating expenses were driven by lower spending in product development and technical engineering, partially offset by higher spending in sales, marketing, and advertising as the Company pivots from developing new products to putting those products in the hands of our customers. General and administrative costs also fell due to lower recruiting, professional, and legal fees.

Net loss attributable to common shareholders for the second quarter was $2.1 million compared with a net loss to common shareholders of $2.3 million in the same period last year. On a fully diluted basis, the net loss per share was $0.96, compared with a net loss of $1.83 per share in the same period last year. This $0.87 per share improvement in the net loss per share includes $0.68 per share attributable to the higher weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

As of June 30, 2024, the cash balance was $3.0 million.

Subsequent Events
On August 5, 2024, the Company closed a public offering of units and pre-funded units consisting of shares of common stock, warrants and pre-funded warrants. Before deducting placement agent discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, gross proceeds were approximately $4.5 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for continued new product development, working capital and other general corporate purposes.
