During the second quarter of fiscal 2022 , the Company's subscriber base grew by a net 16,700 subscribers . The majority of our revenues and subscription revenues are derived from currencies other than the U.S. Dollar .

Dollar exchange rate averaged R14.62 in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022 compared to an average of R16.91 during the second quarter of fiscal year 2021. The impact of translating foreign currencies to U.S. Dollars at the average exchange rates during the second quarter of fiscal 2022 led to a 8.9 % increase in reported U.S. Dollar subscription revenues . Total Revenues : Total revenues were $ 36.1 million , an increase of 16.6 % compared to $ 30.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2021.

Gross profit margin was 63.7 % , compared to 66.7 % for the second quarter of fiscal 2021.
