Q3 2019 Highlights

  • Gross profit of $12.5 million was flat compared with Q3 '18
  • Gross margin improved to 18.5% compared with 17.5% in Q3 '18 driven by higher mix of permanent placement revenue

  • Net loss of $1.1 million improved against a net loss of $2.0 million in Q3 '18
  • EBITDA grew 54% to $1.8 million, from $1.2 million in Q3 '18

  • Adjusted EBITDA grew 21.3% to $7.3 million, from $6.0 million YTD '18

Brendan Flood, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer said, "While revenue was down for the quarter, margins were up, overhead was strategically reduced and we remained operating income positive. We are confident that the dip in revenue is short-term and that we continue to be progressing in the right direction."

"Our acquisition pipeline remains full and active with several potential acquisitions having passed the initial due diligence step," continued Flood. "We remain focused on completing strategic acquisitions and also on pursuing related financing that could involve restructuring our existing debt. To help facilitate that endeavor, we’ve recently engaged the services of Robert W. Baird, Inc., a multinational independent investment bank and financial services company. I remain highly confident in our goal to build a profitable $500 million revenue company."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures.  Other companies may have different definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures, and as a result they may not be comparable with non-GAAP financial measures provided by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are calculated in a manner consistent with that shown in the table at the end of this press release and should not be considered alternatives to measurements required by U.S. GAAP, such as net revenue, operating profit or net income, and should not be considered a measure of the Company’s liquidity.

The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures, among several other metrics, to assess and analyze its operational results and trends. The Company also believes these measures are useful to investors because they are common operating performance metrics as well as metrics routinely used to assess potential enterprise value.
