During the three months ending
- The most recent pandemic has heightened the awareness of supply chain challenges faced by companies across all industries. Companies must invest in technologies that provide improved visibility, transparency and trust throughout their supply chain in order to become more efficient and resilient to the next major disruption. Many supply chain solutions focus on addressing inefficiencies within a single enterprise and are unable to provide the information flow across all supply chain partners that is required in order for companies to remain competitive in today’s global economy. While efficiency remains important it is no longer enough as enterprises need more timely data, better visibility and proof of accountability across all supply chain partner activity in order to protect their products, their customers and their brands. Over the past year, the developments made to the
TrackX platform support this current shift from traditional linear supply chains, where supply chain data and collaboration has been largely manual, untimely and limited to only adjacent partners, to a digital supply network, where pertinent information is captured electronically and shared simultaneously with all supply chain partners across the across the entire partner ecosystem in real-time. - Consumers are demanding to know more about the products they are purchasing, where they originate from and how they are produced. They are insisting that companies they purchase products from provide proof of environmental, social and governance (ESG) compliance initiatives and practices. At the epicenter of ESG is supply chain and in both Q1 22 and Q2 22
TrackX made significant developments to its core supply chain platform to support proof of ESG and sustainability claims. - Regulatory compliance and industry mandates are increasing and companies that don’t comply are facing significant penalties. This is forcing companies to implement better tracing, tracking, collaboration and sustainability solutions. TrackX’s IOT-enabled platform and supply chain focus is positioned to deliver in response to this need.
- Finally, companies must continue to drive efficiencies within their own supply chains. Supply chain management solutions are imperative to helping them speed information flow, to safely and securely share data across their entire supply chain ecosystem and to leverage their assets and labor much more effectively.
“The Company’s strategy remains to focus on improved and increased supply chain tracing tracking and sustainability solutions. This resulted in the necessary re-allocation of engineering resources from consulting billable hours to the development of features, functions, and analytics necessary to enable expansion opportunities with existing customers and to support the business requirements of several new customer opportunities which resulted in a small decrease in revenue’s quarter over quarter. The development work completed in Q1 and Q2 was necessary to drive additional revenue in subsequent quarters and will be highly leverageable as the Company executes on its supply chain strategy,” said
In Q2 2022, the impact of the pandemic was still evident as large accounts struggle to return to full capacity and allocate the labor necessary to support implementations. For

- Revenue for Q2 2022 of
$0.369 million vs$0.428 million for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 (“Q2 2021”).

Business Outlook
While the
- Sales cycles have been longer than anticipated as a result of the impact that Covid has had on our customers, their priorities and implementation timelines
- The Company has had to cut operating expense and in response to the impact of Covid. In order to support new opportunities, new resources will have to be onboarded. With people working from home, the Company is no longer competing for resources with companies in
Colorado but with companies across the nation. - The current economic situation has had on impact on capital markets. This, combined with delays in closing on new customer opportunities, has created working capital constraints for the Company.
To address these challenges, The Company has made a strategic decision to address broader market opportunities and expand its pipeline by more effectively leveraging its partner and reseller network. While that has taken longer than anticipated, the Company did generate revenue through its partners, most notably with FourKites and SpotLite360.
