Urbanimmersive (TSXV:UI) has posted its financials from the first quarter of this year, with revenues falling 27 per cent compares to 2019’s same quarter.

Urbanimmersive are a 3D emulator business, who’s primary market is building real estate models.

The company saw its first quarter revenue constrict by C$335,000, from a high of $1,226,000 last year to just $891,000 this year. 

The company blamed a change in its billing model from gross to net bills, which wiped approximately $400,000 from the company’s net revenue.

Urban also had coronavirus related issues and a decrease in sales from its Tourbuzz platform.  Some of these losses were offset by incoming revenue from Urbanimmersive’s recent acquisition of Immersolution Inc.

Immersolution is a reseller of 3D photographic equipment that Urban picked up throughout the quarter.

The company re-financed in February, borrowing $1.45 million to pay off another loan of $1.07 million.

The quarter also saw the launch of the company’s latest product, the 3D pocket website.

Urbanimmersive’s CEO Ghislain Lemire commented on the new product. 

“Its cost and time-effective production and post-production processes, its high quality images and its capacity to be run offline make it a unique product with a major competitive advantage in this market.

“In addition, with the recent acquisition of Immersolution, a reseller of 3d photographic equipment, we have now positioned ourselves to be able to offer a full set of solutions to our customers while benefitting from additional revenues and cashflows through the crisis,” he said.  

Urban Immersive (TSXV:UI) is up 12.5 per cent and is trading at five cents per share at 3:00 pm EDT.
