Ottawa, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - October 18, 2021) - C-COM Satellite Systems Inc., (TSXV: CMI) (OTCQB: CYSNF) a leading global provider of commercial grade mobile auto-deploying satellite antenna systems, announced today its financial results for the third quarter ended August 31, 2021.

The Company generated revenues of $1,011,055 and a net loss after taxes of $157,711 or 0 cents per share. This compares with revenues of $1,773,918 and net income after taxes of $210,856, or 1 cent per share as reported in 2020.

The year-to date net income for fiscal 2021 stands at $1.1 million, as compared to a net loss of $0.4 million for the same year-to-date period last year.

2021's gain in year-to-date profitability has led to a 5.6% increase in the Company's working capital. The Q3 2021 working capital of $23,721,425 compares to $22,472,963 in working capital as at November 30, 2020.

The Company paid out $504,927 in dividends during the third quarter, while continuing to innovate and invest in the next generation of advanced antenna products.

The Company also announced the payment of an eligible quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.0125 per common share payable on November 16, 2021, to all shareholders of record as of November 2, 2021. Based on the closing price of $2.46 per share on October 15th, 2021, this dividend represents a yield of 2.0% on an annualized basis. This is the Company's 42nd consecutive quarterly dividend.

"Although Q3 total revenues came in lower than last year's levels, we are now experiencing a healthy increase in quoting activity and bookings of future sales orders from existing and new resellers. It is also encouraging that our Q3 revenues outpaced our Q2 sales this year," said Leslie Klein, President and CEO of C-COM Satellite Systems Inc.

"While worldwide markets are still struggling as a result of the pandemic, I am cautiously optimistic about future demand given the more recent improvement in our sales pipeline," added Klein.

"C-COM remains committed to an extensive R&D effort to develop the next generation electronically steered phased array antenna technologies. In August 2021 we announced that we had another successful test of our latest phased array antenna prototype over the Telesat Anik F3 satellite. This new modular platform will eventually provide a cost-effective solution for a wide range of applications-from fixed to mobility satellite broadband services, and for the rapidly emerging millimeter-wave 5G cellular services. Our goal is to develop a leading world market product line based on this technology," Klein concluded.
