Good day and welcome to the Siyata Mobile Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results and Corporate Update Conference Call. [Operator Instructions]. Please note this event is being recorded. I would now like to turn the conference over to Daniel Kim.

Good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining the Siyata Mobile second quarter 2021 conference call. Today I'm joined by our CEO, Marc Seelenfreund and our CFO, Gerald Bernstein, and our VP of International Sales, Glenn Kennedy. We will all be available for questions at the end of the presentation.

These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to those statements regarding future product offerings; the goal to deliver strong year-over-year revenue growth and reach profitability in the coming quarters; the belief that the worst of the pandemic is behind us, and that we will continue to see strong sales in all of our product lines and across our various markets; our future acquisition strategy; the timing of the sale of our rugged handsets to North American and European carriers; and the belief that we are better positioned today than we have ever been to be able to monetize the trends driving our industry. Such forward-looking statements interpretations involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results and performance to differ materially from those projected. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are subject to other risks and uncertainties including those discussed in the risk factors section and elsewhere in the company's annual report on the Form-20F for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and Siyata Mobile's press release that accompanies this call, particularly the cautionary statements in it. The content of this call contains time sensitive information that is accurate only as of today. Except as required by law Siyata Mobile disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any information to reflect events or circumstances that occur after this call. Now I'd like to turn the call over to Marc.

Thank you, Daniel. The challenges we faced due to COVID in 2020, have spilled over into 2021, with fewer of our customers with commercial vehicles upgrading their communication systems, many yellow school buses remained in their parking lots and enterprise customers were not spending in our space due to budget constraints. Unfortunately, COVID-19 is still impacting our business, and it's created a volatility in orders with some of our key customers. As we witnessed in our second quarter results, our revenues declined both sequentially and year-over-year. While we are disappointed with our financial performance for the quarter, we continue to believe that we are on path for strong organic growth in the coming quarters coupled with higher gross margins. I reiterate, our goal remains to deliver to our shareholders strong year-over-year revenue growth and to reach profitability in the coming quarters. Now we'll discuss our financial results. Revenues for the six months of this year was $4.39 million, compared to $4.41 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020. The similar sales compared to prior year to-date is due mainly to a one time merchandise return from a customer in Q2 2021 in the amount of $1.1 million. Without this return year-over-year sales would have increased by 25% to $5.5 million. This increase relates to the increase in booster sales in the United States, specifically in the industrial marketplace, offset by the decrease of sales of rugged handsets in EMEA. For the second quarter adjusted EBITDA was negative $4.6 million versus negative $500,000 in the prior year, a negative variance of $4.1 million. Net loss for the second quarter was $10.9 million, compared to net loss of $1 million the prior year. However, there were a number of non-cash items in the quarter including an inventory impairment of $1.8 million, intangible impairment of $4.3 million, and goodwill impairment of $800,000. If we exclude these non-cash items, then adjusted net loss would have been $3.9 million. Subsequent to the second quarter, Siyata unveiled its next generation rugged device, the SD7. This device is Siyata's first mission critical push to talk device or MCPTT. It is an easy to use PTT-only rugged device that is IP67 rated and as such is designed to work in harsh environments. The SD7 is also Siyata's first rugged handset that we will offer in North America. As we're dealing with multiple cellular carriers to launch the SD7 on their networks, we expect to launch this unique device in North America during this quarter, and then in Europe in 2022. With this new and innovative SD7 device, Siyata expects to increase its MCPTT market, not only in the first responder market, but also in utilities, transportation, hospitality and waste management. Our booster market has been stable and growing with sales in the U.S. market up 152% in the first six months of 2021, over the same period last year. We have multiple large scale opportunities with first responders, federal government and state customers, which we expect we will be closing both in Q4 as well as in the following quarters and we believe that this market will continue to grow rapidly in the coming quarters. Now I would like to pass the line back to Daniel who will discuss some of the industry trends and market dynamics that are benefiting our business, and then to our VP sales, Glenn Kennedy, who will discuss our various sales opportunities.

Thank you, Marc. Over the last one to two years, we have experienced numerous positive trends in each of our end markets. In July 2021 FirstNet, a dedicated cellular network for American first responders announced it supports over 2.5 million connections with more than 17,000 subscribing agencies. This marked the sixth consecutive quarter FirstNet have reported at least 200,000 new connections and gained at least 1,000 subscribing agencies. Over the last year FirstNet has grown its subscriber base by 1 million connections and 4,000 subscribing agencies As the market continues to appreciate the advantage of push to talk over cellular, or PoC. Compared to land mobile radio or LMR, we believe we are well-positioned to capitalize on this trend with our innovative solutions. As Marc discussed, the SD7 offers the benefits of PoC without any of the difficulties of managing the current generation of rugged smart or feature phones, and is ideally suited as a perfect upgrade from LMR. Siyata's innovative product line, including the SD7 is helping to service the generational shift from LMR to PoC. According to VDC Research, the LMR market is growing at 5.9% CAGR, while the PoC market is growing more than double that at 13.6%. And annual PoC shipments are expected to grow 42% from $1.9 million in 2008 to $2.7 million in 2023. As previously mentioned, our booster business is enjoying increased demand. This demand shift has been driven by enterprise and other Fortune 500 companies who wish to complement conductivity with strong consistent cellular signals. Approximately 30 million of these devices are sold globally every year. And that number is expected to roughly double by 2026. The reason for this growth is cellular communication provides a robust secure environment, not just for remote workers in home and in vehicles, but also for warehouse workers, the security industry, utilities and government. Virtually any enterprise can benefit from more robust cellular connectivity. With that, I'd like to pass the line to Glenn who will discuss the success of the recent sales trends we have been enjoying.

Thank you, Dan. Looking at our sales funnel, we continue to see strong sales potential in each of our three product categories. First, in our in-vehicle devices category, we are continuing to conduct trials with projects that have been put on hold in 2020 due to COVID-19. We have initiated new proof-of-concept trials with several state and local government agencies in the U.S. and in addition, we are seeing growing international demand for the UV350, including a fourth purchase order after the quarter ended from a large wireless carrier who has previously ordered from us in 2020 and is equipping additional ambulances in their Middle East country with our UV350 device. Just after Q2 we also released three press releases demonstrating three larger POs of our in-vehicle and rugged handsets totaling more than $2.5 million across first responders, a defense contractor and a cellular distributor. This shows continued demand for our unique solutions. Secondly, in our rugged handset product category, we have announced the SD7 device, a new innovative cost effective rugged handset that supports mission critical push to talk or MCPTT to North American wireless carriers. And we display it recently at two key industry trade shows called APCO and IWCE. The prelaunch feedback from the wireless carriers has been strong because the SD7 device is unique and exactly the kind of device that wireless carriers have been asking for to capture new customers who have been using traditional LMR or two way radios. Our objective is to launch with a major U.S. Cellular carrier and to begin selling our new SD7 rugged handset in this quarter, and then expanding our launch to additional North American and international carriers in the first half of 2022. And thirdly in our cellular booster product category, we saw continued demand for cellular boosters throughout the quarter and following the quarter. Just after the quarter we signed a new leading U.S. based online booster distributor called Silk Worldwide Inc., and they have already placed their first of what we expect will be many recurring purchase orders. We're also pursuing some very large cellular booster opportunities with both first responders, U.S. federal and state governments, all of which we hope to close in the coming months. Overall, we're very pleased with the growing acceptance by customers of our truly unique disruptive solutions. And expect based on what we're seeing today continued rapid adoption of all of our product categories. I will now hand the line back to Marc for closing remarks.

Thank you, Glenn. After having laid the foundation for growth, management is confident that Siyata will deliver strong growth in 2021. While the pandemic may continue to create quarter-on-quarter volatility, especially for a small company like ours, the pipe of business is growing, and it's very robust in all three of our product categories. Management is hopeful that this momentum will continue in particular, as we leverage our expanded and refreshed product offerings, which we believe provide our customers with disruptive, innovative solutions that are all complementary. In summary, we're very proud of our exceptional seasoned sales team, we have created a strong customer base for the company with a multi-million dollar pipeline. We are also very excited to deliver our next generation solutions, to the market, including the SD7, which we believe will be a game changer for Siyata, and hope to continue to capture significant new opportunities and customers, which we believe will drive sales throughout the balance of 2021 and beyond. We stand by our goal of growing our sales with a focus on reaching profitability in the coming quarters. That concludes our formal remarks. With that, operator kindly open the call to questions. Thank you.

We will now begin the question-and-answer session. [Operator Instructions] Our first question comes from Tim Moore from CFA [ph]. Please go ahead.

Tim Moore from Zacks. The Telstra news this week was really nice to see. Congratulations on that. And I've been to Australia four times and know how important that company is down there to get inroads with their dominant markets here. But I'm just wondering maybe if we take a step back, if you can give us maybe some color on, how third quarter sales magnitude might have been? Was it similar to the first quarter sales level or any other kind of granularity you can maybe speak to given that September's finished?

Okay, so thanks for the call. First of all, Telstra is very important to us, because it also shows that even today, operators are continuing to launch and adopt UV350. And this product, we can run with it for at least another, I want to say at least one or two years. It's not something that we think is going to be end-of-life anytime soon. We actually did an upgrade on the device so that it's now Android 10 with Android 7 for -- since we launched it. And with that it allows us to go and offer it to customers. And we think that it will be the relevant device for a long period. And we're very happy to be working with Telstra because like you said, it's a big carrier and it's good thing for us. Regarding Q2, Q3 and Q4 sales, of course will be better than Q2, right? We do see a very good adoption of our products. We said this on the call in all three categories. Our booster business is very, very strong. And that's been since COVID kicked in and people are using more and more boosters because they're working from home so they need to have their warehouses connected, and we see that's very strong part of our business. Our UV350, we are getting orders, but we have very, very large scale orders that we're either in the middle of the trials or we finished the trials, and we're just waiting to get the orders or to get budgets or to make sure that the customers actually decide to adopt the product. But we have, again multiple trials that we've done; some sales that we got in Q3, some sales that we're getting in Q4. But that product, like I said, it's still very relevant. And we still have a very large pipeline for that product. And in our rugged handsets, so until now, our rugged handsets were mainly sold in Europe. And in Israel. That was the main market that we were going after. Those markets were totally dead for us last year. During COVID they were not relevant at all. But I can tell you that we did see a very, very significant return of customers buying those products or rugged phones in those markets. And you're going to see that the same way that you saw it in Q1. You're going to see it in Q3, and Q4, and going forward, because the SD7, as we mentioned before, is going to be specifically for the North American market. That's a totally new opportunity for us. So as I said, in all three categories, you're going to see that we're getting traction. And I can't say if it's like Q1. It's definitely better than Q2. And as I had mentioned a few times on the call, our goal is to reach profitability in the coming quarters. And we think that that's very possible. It's not a pie in the sky dream, it's something that we think that we can get to. To be able to reach profitability, we have to get to around $5.5 million in revenue on a quarterly basis. And we think that, that is achievable in the coming quarters.

Good No, no, that's helpful color to hear. I had a chance to catch the SD7 on the Urgent Communications webinar in August and was pretty impressed by it. Now, I'm just wondering, you know, if you can maybe speak to either maybe what sales potential you're expecting in North America in 2022. And if they're already pilots and trials underway for Europe to kind of give you confidence on that being rolled out successfully in Europe next year.

Yeah. So we have trials going on, both with multiple carriers in the United States, leading carriers in the United States. We are now starting trials also in Europe. So I think that Europe is definitely going to follow the United States, it will be probably second tier. Sometime in the first half of next year, we're hopeful that we'll be able to also launch it in Europe. But to your question about the size of the market, we believe that this market is very, very large scale, anywhere from tens of thousands of units a year to well over 100,000 units a year. That would not even be scratching the size for the potential of the market. That being because this is going to be the lowest cost mission critical push to talk device on the market. There is nothing that is going to be in this price level. The price level is around $300, just to give you color. So every 10,000 units is about $3 million, 100,000 units would be about $30 million. All of the carriers are very, very interested in what is called first responders, but not only first responders, also second tier first responders. And the second tier first responder could be waste management, it could be yellow school buses, drivers, it could be utilities, right? Those are all also considered first responders. And both AT&T FirstNet and Verizon and also TNT Mobile, they're very, very interested in getting into that market. The best way to do it is with a mission critical push to talk device. So because the device is very unique, because you don't have to, it's a perfect upgrade from the LMR in this case. If you saw on the webinar, anybody that's used a radio for the past 20 years, for them taking this new device, it's very, very easy upgrade, right. You don't have to really learn anything, you push the button, you choose the channel, and that's it. So in that sense, we think that it has very, very large scale potential. And even in the markets that we're selling right now, in Israel and in other markets in Europe, they are extremely interested in this product. We're going to be starting trials soon. And we think that it has a global appeal. So we think that that's going to be a very good product for us.

And that's very helpful to hear it and it's really good to go into the color on that. And my last question is actually just a quick housekeeping question. I noticed the inventory impairment taken this quarter, and a similar sized one taken in the fourth quarter of last year for slow moving product. Can you maybe just shed a little light on maybe what the inventory impairment was this quarter and if you're pretty comfortable that you're done with all these now going forward, the impairments commentary.

The impairment was mainly done by our accountants because they saw that we didn't have substantial sales of those devices in the quarter, and some of them also not in Q1, and they automatically impair it if they feel that it's not being sold aggressively enough, okay? Because we had amortized it over a few years and they felt that it was not conservative just to leave it out there and not impair it. To your question, we don't see this happening again, and that nearly this size going forward. A lot of that inventory that we believe is still sellable. And we think that the fact that it was impaired doesn't mean that we're not throwing it out, and it's still sellable inventory. And also on the intangibles, like I said, the UV350, we're going to be selling that going forward. And you know, even if we lower the intangible rate on that, we still think that we have at least another one or two years to be able to sell that product. So to your question, I think that you're not going to be sensing any kind of write-offs like that in the coming quarters.

Thank you. That's it for my questions. I appreciate it.

[Operator Instructions] Our next question will come from Jack Vander Aarde from Maxim Group. Go ahead.

Great, good morning, guys. Thanks for taking my questions. I'll start with a couple questions on the quarter. And then ask about some of your new product and growth opportunities, which you've kind of dug into quite a bit now. But so I'm not sure who wants to answer this. And it's kind of already discussed, but I just want to better understand that the customer return order in greater detail, is any more details on that customer where they're located maybe and what product category was returned. I didn't catch that.

Yeah, so it's a U.S. customer that had taken devices because they thought they were going to win a large scale tender in the United States. They took it last year, and they felt that they were going to win the tender in the end. They ended up not winning that tender. And they were not able to sell that product. And then they asked us to return it. Because we are still working with that customer. And they're buying other products from us. And we wanted to keep that relationship with them. And therefore we allowed them to return it. That's not something that you're going to see going forward. And it's not common at all in our business. So it's again, it's a onetime thing. And it's a customer that we're actually still working with. And we think that we can sell a lot of devices through and that's the reason that we agreed to take it back.

Okay, that makes sense. Appreciate the color there. Let me switch gears then to kind of where we're at today, and maybe where you're heading in terms of the overall headcount in the sales team, it's for you Marc again. So I think last time we spoke, the last earnings call is around you guys were around 25 people, something like that, for overall headcount. Where's headcount today, and particularly, where's the sales force at in headcount?

So we have in our sales force, I want to say eight people altogether, and that's both sales and technical support for those sales. And then we have another two people that all they do is online sales. So a big part of our boost the business is online sales directly to consumers. And we actually let go of two sales people during the past six months, because we felt that they were not performing. But we feel very good right now, with our headcount. We don't think that it's too big. We don't think that it's too small. You have to understand that if a person is working with AT&T, he can't be working also with Verizon, because AT&T will not accept somebody who's speaking both Verizon and AT&T. We have a sales person for AT&T, we've a sales person for Verizon, we had a sales person specifically for T-Mobile, which is a customer that we've been working very hard to get into. We have Glenn who's on the call, who does international sales, and also Canada, right? We have two people that work in Israel and in Europe for those sales. So in general, just a little bit of color. We're very lean in the sense that we don't have a lot of people working on the accounts. You have one person for each account, which is the way that it has to be set up if you want to work with these large carriers. And then we have another two people that are doing the booster business for us. So we have two sales people that are that are working on the booster accounts. So that's sort of the breakdown of the sales -- in the sales force. And again, I think that we can ramp up sales dramatically with the current team that we have in place, both on the sales side and on the R&D side and on the logistic side and on the support side. But we'll be able to ramp up sales and not have to ramp up our headcount.

Okay, fantastic. I appreciate the color there as well. That's helpful. And then I'll switch maybe gears just for a question for Glenn because he mentioned this in the prepared remarks. Glenn, I think you mentioned you received your fourth purchase order since the quarter ended after the second quarter ended for the UV350. Just want to get clarity on that, was that -- is that four purchase orders after that's not included in the second quarter revenue?

Yeah, thanks, Jack. That customer actually is a Mideast customer, Middle East customer. And they have placed now four purchase orders at different stages beginning in 2020. So those are a variety of different phases as they've been deploying products in ambulances throughout their country. So it's encouraging from our perspective, because we understand, and they're ordering hundreds at a time. It's not just small quantities. It's encouraging to us, because we see that customers are adopting them and rolling them out throughout their entire organization. It's not just a onetime order it's multiple repeat orders. And that's what we love to see.

Great. Okay, no, that is a good sign. That makes that makes sense as well. I appreciate the clarification there too. And then maybe just one more final question. You've touched upon this quite a bit already, Marc. But on the SD7 this seems like it could be a pretty big game changer in terms of what Siyata -- in terms of your penetration of America, and also just your revenue growth catalysts. So it sounds like the SD7 or your ruggedized hand devices haven't been sold in the U.S. at all until this point, or at least later on in this year. So will this actually represent in your mind a catalyst, just to overall jumpstart your U.S. sales as a whole, because now we will have the full portfolio of products in the U.S.? Just any color there. Just seems like it's synergistic, could really help to get the momentum.

Absolutely. The answer to that is absolutely. It takes us from being a small niche player with a vehicle device to being a handset provider and, again, I'm not saying that we're selling a cheap device. This is a great device, and it's rugged, it's Mil Spec and whatever. It's a very good device, okay, but it's the least expensive device in the category, okay? So it's going to cost customers around $25 a month, including the push-to-talk, including the device, and including the SIM card, okay. That's the pricing that we're that the operators are telling us that, that's what it's going to come out at. So think about a construction company. They didn't want to give their workers necessarily an $800 Samsung device. All they want to do is be able to connect to them and speak to 50 people at the same time for 500 people at the same time. So if you can give them a $300 device, instead of an $800 device, AT&T saves on what they have to subsidize. The customer doesn't have to pay as much. It's going to be very cost effective. And we think that we can sell a lot of them. And again, it's not -- it's construction companies, it's hospitalities, it's first responders, it's utilities, it's amusement parks, there's literally security companies, it's literally an endless market. And for the cellular carriers, it's basically a tool to be able to take away the radios that customers are right now walking around with and putting their handheld device is going to solve -- a SIM card inside, right? In other words, that's their interest. They want to get the SIM card in the hand, of these people that are right now using radios. So this is going to be the least, the most least expensive way to do it. So for us, we've been putting a lot of focus on it. And we've been spending a lot of time on it. And we think that it's going to be a major game changer for us. And we're obviously you can tell we're very excited.

Great, and just one more follow-up to that. And it kind of relates to my -- the first question I asked you on the sales front, or the sales team from so how are you actually going about this from a sales organization perspective? Or do you have a dedicated, rugged handset sales team? Or do you have this kind of fall under this -- a sales leader for Verizon or for each wireless carriers that are selling multiple product categories?

That's a great question. So the person who's in charge, if you saw the webinar on the SD7, we have a guy named Jason DePue. He is in charge of the AT&T account. Okay, he sells UV350. And now he's going to be selling SD7, okay. And his job is to train the AT&T sales people to be able to sell it to their customers. So we leverage the AT&T sales force to be able to get to their end customers, so that we don't have to go to each and every customer right? And if there's a large customer that wants to do a sit down and they're going to buy a few 1,000 units, then obviously he'll go with AT&T and sit down with that customer to try to close them to take our device. Until now he's been doing it with the UV350. Now he's going to have two products in his portfolio. Okay, we had the same thing at Verizon, we had the same thing T-Mobile and the booster guys are independent. So the booster guys sell across the market. They're not necessarily selling to carriers or selling to dealers, and they're selling also to carriers. But that's a different model. All they do, those two guys, all they do is they sell boosters, that's it. And if an opportunity comes across that Jason hears that somebody at AT&T needs boosters, he will pass it over to our booster team, which is their area of expertise.

Got it. Okay, that's very helpful. I appreciate the quarterly update, and we'll be in touch. Wish you guys the best going forward.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it.

This concludes our question-and-answer session. I'd like to turn the conference back over to Marc Seelenfreund for any closing remarks.

Thank you, Scott. So obviously, this is a disappointing quarter for us. But we think that we're going to do much better in the coming quarters. We have an exciting product portfolio, we have multi-billion dollar customers. And we think that those two assets coupled together, our customer base, and our product portfolio will allow us to grow the company dramatically in the coming quarters. And as I said, our main goal is to reach profitability, and we are laser focused, to get to that point. So we view this as growing pains of a small company. But we do believe that it's going to change and turn around very soon. Thank you very much, and anybody that would like to ask more questions after the call, you're welcome to call me or email me at any time. Thank you very much.

The conference has now concluded thank you for attending today's presentation. You may now disconnect.
