Quarterly Revenue Increased to $7.1M, up 62% y/y

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / August 15, 2022 / Recruiter.com Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:RCRT)(NASDAQ:RCRTW) ("Recruiter.com"), a recruiting solutions platform, today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2022, ended June 30, 2022.

"Recruiter.com delivered a strong quarter, growing revenues and margins while reducing operating expenses," said Evan Sohn, CEO of Recruiter.com. "Strong product market fit and solid hiring demand helped grow revenues by 62% y/y to $7.1 million and achieve 3.5% organic revenue growth sequentially."

"A sustained shift toward our software and on-demand services enabled our gross profit to more than double y/y to $2.9 million and expand our gross margin to 41.2%. During the quarter, we also focused on delivering operating efficiency, reducing our adjusted EBITDA loss to $397 thousand, a 70% sequential improvement. We are excited by the growth opportunities ahead of us and expect to cross the breakeven mark for positive adjusted EBIDTA before year-end."

Recent Highlights

  • Revenue for the second quarter of 2022 totaled $7.1 million, an increase of $2.7 million or 62%, compared to revenue of $4.4 million in the second quarter of 2021. Revenue growth was primarily driven by a 161% increase in the Recruiters on Demand business and continued growth in Software Subscriptions, which launched in 2021.
  • Gross profit for the second quarter of 2022 was $2.9 million, a 107% increase compared to $1.4 million gross profit in the comparable period of 2021. The gross profit margin expanded to 41.2% compared to 32.8% a year ago. The increase reflects the continued shift in the Company's sales mix to its faster-growing and higher-margin businesses.
  • Announced advancements to Recruiter.com AI that keep employer needs top of mind. Upgrades include improved search capability, email outreach, and a new candidate tracker dashboard allowing employers to review each candidate's background in one integrated view. When paired with the Recruiter.com Recruiters On Demand service, the solution delivers qualified and engaged candidates that have been screened and are "ready to interview."
