OTTAWA, ON / ACCESSWIRE / February 24, 2022 / Braille Energy Systems Inc. (formerly Mincom Capital Inc.) (TSXV:BES) ("BESI" or the "Company") today reported revenue of $3,466,601 for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2021, an increase of 18.37% compared to the previous fiscal year.

The adjusted net loss for the year was -$213,164, representing -$0.003 per share. This is compared to a net loss of -$296,257, representing -$0.006 per share, in the previous year. The adjusted net loss reported is a non-GAAP financial measure, which was calculated by backing out the non-cash expenses from the net loss of -$734,477 reported in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, and from the net loss of -$423,716 reported in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020. The non-cash expenses backed out from the net loss are namely stock base compensation, depreciation on property plant and equipment, depreciation on right of use, and interest on lease obligation. The Company believes that the adjusted net income provides information useful to its shareholders in understanding the Company's performance.

"The company navigated a challenging landscape during the year, facing logistics issues and cost increases, and our supply of AGM Batteries was severely constrained which led to US$ 500,000 in backorders at year end," said BESI President and CEO Lindsay Weatherdon. "We anticipate a return to more normal supply trends in '22 as we continue to expand our product pipeline globally with our new I25X/I35X and G-SBS30/G-SBS40 Lithium Batteries."

Mr. Weatherdon continued, "The I25X/I35X is geared towards Nissan Z cars as well as other Japanese Sports Cars (Acura NSX, Toyota, Mitsubishi, Subaru), and the G-SBS30/G-SBS40 will allow us to expand our reach throughout Europe, as these are the most common and popular models used in European performance track and street cars."
