BlueRush Reports Fiscal 2020 Second Quarter Financial Results

Record Quarterly Revenue Demonstrates Concrete Corporate Strategy

TORONTO, March 26, 2020 /CNW/ - BlueRush Inc. ("BlueRush" or the "Company") BTV, an emerging personalized video Software as a Service ("SaaS") company, today announced its financial results for the three-month ("Q2 2020") and six-month ("YTD 2020") periods ended January 31, 2020.

"Our second fiscal quarter of 2020 produced a historic milestone for BlueRush with record top-line revenue," said Steve Taylor, CEO of BlueRush. "The 92% increase in total revenue versus last year, and 193% in subscription and support, illustrates how powerful the IndiVideo product is and the trajectory it has within the financial institution market and beyond."

"As discussed over the past year, the Customer Communication Management (CCM) industry is on the cusp of a change that was last seen in the 1990s when the PDF began to replace the printed bill. Our IndiVideo product is being used by some of the largest financial institutions in the world who are not only looking to be more innovative, but more thoughtful in their approach to customer management and engagement. IndiVideo is a leader in the interactive personalized video segment, and we will continue to grow recurring revenues to deliver meaningful returns for our shareholders."

"We are very proud of the 193% increase in subscription and support revenue over last year. We have built upon the successes of fiscal 2019, including our continued focus on IndiVideo, having sold DigitalReach and Smart Advisor, and will continue to grow and gain traction in fiscal 2020 and thereafter," stated Mr. Taylor.

Q2 2020 Highlights:

  • The Company's overall revenues increased by 92% to $1,132,009, compared to $590,975 for Q2 2019;
  • BlueRush continues to successfully transition towards the recurring revenue model, increasing its subscription and support revenue by 193% to $284,092, compared to $96,833 for Q2 2019;
