The Company’s total revenue decreased 34% in the period ended August 31, 2021 to $664,505 from $1,002,078 in the same period a year earlier. Comprehensive income decreased to $4,765 in this quarter, a decrease of 98% from $226,307 as at August 31, 2020.
The Company reported comprehensive income of $4,765, due to the following:
- The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the office closing and most staff working from home for the period of March 18 to July 31, 2020, then again on November 16, 2020 to date. As most Canadians were not driving during these periods, insurance claims were close to non-existent, resulting in some staff layoffs in the Insurance Division, and a decrease in revenue. When permitted by the provincial government and public health guidelines, management will permit full staff to return. New car dealers across the country either closed their doors and worked remotely or reduced their sales staff. And due to an international problem of manufacturing computer chips, automobile production slowed, with the resulting effect of little new car inventory, which in turn had a detrimental effect on CarCostCanada’s revenues.
Operations
The Insurance Services division realized a decrease in revenue in the three months ended August 31, 2021, from $471,000 in 2020 to $327,777 in 2021, or by 30%. The decrease in revenue was the result of the decrease in the number of cars on the road due to Covid-19, resulting in fewer insurance claims. There has been an increase in this division’s revenue since the end of Q4 2021, and management expects this trend to continue, provided there are no further Covid-19 shutdowns.
The CarCostCanada division (combining the former Retail, Dealer and Advertising divisions) revenue was down 41% to $262,820 for the period ended August 31, 2021 from $443,899 for the period ended August 31, 2020. Once new vehicle production and dealership inventories return to pre-Covid levels, management expects this division’s revenue to increase.
The Information Technology division revenue decreased 15% to $73,908 in Q1 2022, from $87,179 in Q1 2020. IT continues to offer technical support and web site hosting to hundreds of customers and is developing new customer relationships on a regular basis, as well as offering new services for sale.
