CORRECTION FROM SOURCE: Plurilock Security Inc. Reports Fiscal 2021 Second Quarter Financial Results

By: Newsfile

Plurilock Security Inc. (TSXV: PLUR) (OTCQB: PLCKF) is issuing a correction to its previously disseminated press release dated August 27, 2021. The error occurred in the 'Summary of Key Financial Metrics', where it should have read $7,399,990 in total current liabilities instead of $73,999,990 in total current liabilities. The corrected press release follows in full below:

Victoria, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 29, 2021) - Plurilock Security Inc. (TSXV: PLUR) (OTCQB: PLCKF) and related subsidiaries ("Plurilock" or the "Company"), an identity-centric cybersecurity solution provider for workforces, today announces its financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2021. All dollar figures are stated in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

"We are very pleased to report the second quarter of 2021 saw us deliver strong year over year revenue growth, add industry leading professionals to the organization, and expand our operational presence to new markets globally," said Ian L. Paterson, CEO of Plurilock. "The growth exhibited provides further validation that enterprise customers look to Plurilock for a partner that delivers simple, reliable, industry leading cybersecurity solutions to some of the world's leading organizations."

"As part of our stated strategy of acquiring assets to complement our existing authentication products, we completed our first acquisition of cybersecurity solutions provider Aurora Systems Consulting Inc.," continued Mr. Paterson. "With Aurora, we have secured a channel partner with an experienced sales force and over 140 government and commercial customers to offer our high margin software. As well, we have seen success of our sales strategy with our recent $672,000 multi-year purchase order of DEFEND continuous authentication product by a leading overseas financial institution."

Following a series of high-profile cyber attacks, discussions on cybersecurity infrastructure and investment have been top of mind for governmental and private-sector organizations. Last week, the White House administration met with leaders from several technology companies for a cybersecurity summit.1 Subsequently, big names in technology including Google and Microsoft have since announced planned multi-billion dollar investments in new industry standards, stronger security tools, and skills training to prevent and mitigate attacks.2

Non-IFRS measures

This news release presents information about EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, both of which are non-IFRS financial measures, to provide supplementary information about operating performance. Plurilock defines EBITDA as net income or loss before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA removes non-cash share-based compensation and listing expenses from EBITDA. The Company believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful financial metric for investors as it adjusts income to reflect amounts which the Company can use to fund working capital requirements, service future interest and principal debt repayments and fund future growth initiatives. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended as a substitute for IFRS measures. A limitation of utilizing these non-IFRS measures is that the IFRS accounting effects of the adjustments do in fact reflect the underlying financial results of Plurilock's business and these effects should not be ignored in evaluating and analyzing Plurilock's financial results. Therefore, management believes that Plurilock's IFRS measures of net loss and the same respective non-IFRS measure should be considered together. Non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Readers should refer to the Company's most recently filed MD&A for a more detailed discussion of these measures and their calculation.
