Taronis Technologies, Inc.

Represents 298% Annual Increase in Sales

TAMPA, FL / ACCESSWIRE / April 9, 2019 / Taronis Technologies, Inc. ("Taronis' or "the Company') (NASDAQ: TRNX), a leading clean technology company in the renewable resources and environmental conservation industry, today announced that the Company generated $2.05 million in revenues for the month of March. This represents a 298% increase as compared to $0.5 million generated in March of 2018. These results are the highest for the month of March in addition to being the highest monthly performance in the Company's history.

"With our third consecutive record month of sales growth, our acquisition strategy is exceeding prior financial expectations," commented Scott Mahoney, Chief Executive Officer of Taronis Technologies. "We are now generating in excess of $24 million in annualized sales, and our team is fully integrated and executing on all of our growth initiatives for 2019."

The fastest growing region for Taronis was California, which generated $0.9 million in sales for March, as compared to $0.05 million the year before, for a 15.0x increase. The primary factors for this growth were the acquisitions of Trico Welding Supply in April 2018 and Complete Welding in the Los Angeles market in February 2019. Complete Welding of Los Angeles performed exceptionally in its first full month under Taronis management, with an increase in sales of 34% compared to the same period in 2018. Complete Welding's entire Los Angeles operation is now fully integrated and operating seamlessly under the Taronis team, less than six weeks after the acquisition in February of this year. Taronis's San Diego market also performed strongly during March, with sales 42% higher than the same period in the prior year. The San Diego market has benefitted from a consistent focus on competing for and winning new municipal and large commercial accounts in recent months.

Taronis's second fastest growing region was Texas, with March sales of $0.9 million, compared to $0.1 million the prior year, representing a 6.0x year-over-year (YOY) increase. The primary factors for growth were three acquisitions made in the October of 2018 and an additional two acquisitions in the first quarter of 2019, including Tyler Welders Supply, which was one of the largest independent welding supply distributors in East Texas for over 40 years. The combined Texas sales team is executing extremely well. In particular, Tyler Welders Supply generated 32% month-over-month growth in its first full month operating under Taronis management.

Florida remains largely unchanged YOY with $0.3 million in sales. The Florida team recently added a new MagneGas product specialist who will be responsible for specialized product marketing in both Florida and Texas. Florida market results were constrained by a lack of critical infrastructure investment, particularly relating to an industrial gas fill plant facility that was scheduled to be completed in April. Now that all pending acquisitions have been completed, significant progress has been made in the construction of this facility in the past month. It is anticipated that this project will be completed within the next 30-45 days. Once completed, Taronis intends to augment the local sales team and aggressively resume expansionary sales efforts in the Florida market.
