Quarterly Revenue Increased 11% y/y to $7M
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / November 14, 2022 / Recruiter.com Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:RCRT)(NASDAQ:RCRTW) ("Recruiter.com"), an on-demand recruiting platform, today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2022, ended September 30, 2022.
"In the third quarter, Recruiter.com delivered solid revenue growth versus the prior-year quarter," said Evan Sohn, CEO of Recruiter.com. "During the quarter, we focused on improving operating efficiencies within our management, sales, and delivery functions. With our recently announced growth strategy being implemented, we are now focused on our segments with the strongest operating margins and client demand. The cost reductions are aimed to accelerate profitability and concentrate efforts on our strongest growth drivers."
"Revenues dipped slightly (2%) from the previous quarter due to a more volatile business climate. We remain steadfast on achieving profitability and are pleased with the improvement in net loss and reduction in operating expenses. This quarter is challenging, but we are focused on managing accordingly and continuing to explore strategic opportunities. We remain confident that our on-demand, flexible business model is well suited to the current environment."
Third Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights (Full Results in Tables Below)
- Revenue for the third quarter totaled $7.0 million, an 11% increase compared to revenue of $6.3 million in the third quarter of 2021, due primarily to an increase in the Recruiters on Demand business.
- Gross profit for the third quarter was $2.2 million, a 4.9% decrease compared to gross profit of $2.3 million in the third quarter of 2021, due primarily to the Company's continuing shift away from Permanent Placement.
- Total operating expenses for the third quarter were $7.6 million, a 14% decrease compared to operating expenses of $8.9 million in the third quarter of 2021, due primarily to the ongoing efficiencies gained from the integration of staff and asset acquisitions.
- Net loss for the third quarter was $5.6 million, a 26% improvement compared to a net loss of $7.6 million in the third quarter of 2021. The net loss in the third quarter of 2022 included non-cash amortization expense of $952 thousand, impairment expense of $2.129 million, and equity-based compensation expense of $766 thousand.
