AnalytixInsight Reports Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results

TORONTO, ON – November 29, 2019 – Artificial Intelligence company, AnalytixInsight Inc. (“AnalytixInsight”, or the “Company”) (TSX-V: ALY; OTCQB: ATIXF), is pleased to announce its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.  

During the quarter, the Company continued delivering its AI-driven machine-created content to Refinitiv within its strategic initiative to provide research coverage on approximately 3,000 dividend-paying companies in Canada, the US and the UK. AI-driven content is becoming increasingly important as financial businesses move to embrace AI and analytics as the content cornerstones for their client offerings. Revenue for the three-month period ended September 30, 2019, was $754,703 which compares to $1,296,239 during the same period in the previous year. Revenue for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019, was $2,852,177 which compares to $3,637,339 during the same period in the previous year. At September 30, 2019, the Company had working capital of $2,188,481 and no debt.

AnalytixInsight’s 49%-owned FinTech subsidiary, Marketwall, has applied to become an online financial broker in Europe and, following completion of regulatory approvals, Marketwall expects to initiate a formal process to determine its appropriate valuation within a peer-based context of online brokerage firms with innovative technology and partnerships with world-leading banks. Marketwall has advised the Company that following such process, Marketwall will then raise suitable funds to enable its global growth expansion plans. Completion of this process will allow AnalytixInsight to move forward with a spinout to unlock the value of its Marketwall holdings in an IPO or other such strategies.

During its four-year operating history, Marketwall has developed leading-edge FinTech solutions which include:

Financial portal – marketwall.com offers financial content, news, real-time quotes, and video news stories.  As a Samsung Electronics partner, Marketwall’s financial app is pre-loaded on certain devices – such as Smart TVs. Marketwall draws an audience of over 3.5 million monthly views across its digital channels.

Mobile Stock-Trading App – launched as Investo in 2018 by Italy’s leading bank Intesa Sanpaolo and facilitated 20% of their customer trading orders shortly after deployment.

GlobalMarket – a trading & research platform offering analyst research and stock-trading in one common enterprise digital platform. It is marketed and sold by a leading investment research provider and has already been installed by a leading bank in Western Europe for their approximately 4,000 professional users.

Research Portal – an elegant financial research information portal for use by banks and brokerage firms to better serve their institutional buy-side clients. Research reports are organized and summarized in a password-protected portal, allowing a client to quickly search with ease, replacing the cumbersome email-based distribution methods traditionally used.

Marketwall’s revenue for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019, was $3,452,697 which compares to $2,808,130 during the same period in the previous year. Net income for the nine-month period was $628,265 which compares to $542,712 during the same period in the previous year. Marketwall is an associated company 49%-owned by AnalytixInsight, and as such, Marketwall’s revenue is not included in AnalytixInsight’s consolidated revenue.

AnalytixInsight believes its key strategic initiatives - Artificial Intelligence and FinTech - are well-positioned to capitalize on the market trends occurring in the industry.
