Total Assets and Revenues Continue to Grow Year-on-Year with No Debt
SAN CLEMENTE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / November 16, 2020 / Concierge Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB:CNCG), a diversified global holding firm, today announced financial results for the first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2020 with strong performance in revenues and net income.
The company reported revenues of $10.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared with $6.0 million for the prior year. Net income for the most recent three-month period amounted to $2.2 million, equal to $0.06 per share, versus $55 thousand, or $0.00 per share, for the comparable prior year period.
The primary driver for the fiscal 2021 first quarter results was an increase in assets under management (AUM) at the company's Wainwright Holdings funds management subsidiary to approximately $5.2 billion as of September 30, 2020 as compared to $2.2 billion for the prior year quarter ended September 30, 2019. Wainwright, which operates under the name, USCF Investments, currently manages 10 commodity-oriented exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that are listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
The company's Other business segment, which comprised approximately 35% of total revenues in the most recent first quarter vs 50% of revenues in last year's first quarter, were also up approximately $0.7 million in year-on-year comparison. The increase was due, in part, to the acquisition of Printstock Products Limited by the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Gourmet Foods, in New Zealand. The Other segment is comprised of Gourmet Foods, Brigadier Security Systems and Original Sprout.
Concierge's balance sheet further strengthened at the end of the first fiscal quarter. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $12.9 million, compared with $9.8 million at June 30, 2020. Total stockholders' equity increased to $21.4 million at September 30, 2020 from $19.1 million at the end of fiscal 2020. The company has essentially no debt.
"Despite the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on a global basis, our operating subsidiaries have found ways to adapt and continue to be in operation and profitable.", commented David Neibert, chief operations officer. "As a diverse global holding company looking to expand our portfolio of subsidiaries, we were only slightly delayed in our acquisition of Printstock this quarter due to the pandemic, and we are continuing to pursue our corporate goal to build a profitable, diverse organization through organic growth, acquisitions and new ventures".
"To say this has been a strange year would be an understatement." added Nicholas Gerber, chairman and chief executive officer. "To say our strategy of diversification has paid off would also be an understatement. When others have suffered undue hardship during the recent 6 months, we have smoothed the curve and prospered. For the remainder of this fiscal year we are looking forward to the addition of Printstock in New Zealand contributing revenues and profits as well as making good on our launch of a new fintech venture. The coming year will hopefully not be as strange as the last, but it promises to be as exciting."
