Concierge Technologies Reports Financial Results for Second Fiscal Quarter

Concierge Technologies Reports Financial Results for Second Fiscal Quarter

– Revenues Nearly Double, Stockholders’ Equity Continues to Rise Over Prior Year –

SAN CLEMENTE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / February 16, 2021 / Concierge Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB:CNCG), a diversified global holding firm, today announced financial results for the second fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2020, with strong performances in revenues, net income and stockholders’ equity.

The Company reported that for the three months ended December 31, 2020, revenues continued their increase to $10.0 million from $5.8 million for the comparable prior year period. For the six months ended December 31, 2020, revenues advanced to $20.7 million from $11.8 million for the same period last year. Net income for the most recent three-month period rose to $1.4 million, equal to $0.04 per share, from a net loss of $75,000, equal to breakeven per share, for the comparable prior year period. Year-to-date net income advanced to $3.6 million, equal to $.09 per share on a fully diluted basis, from a net loss of $20,000, or breakeven per share, a year ago.

Concierge said the primary driver for the fiscal 2021 improvement was an increase in assets under management (AUM) at the Company’s Wainwright Holdings funds management subsidiary to approximately $4.8 billion as of December 31, 2020, compared with $2.0 billion at the same time a year ago. Wainwright, which operates under the name, USCF Investments, currently manages nine commodity-oriented exchange-traded products (ETPs) that are listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

The Company’s “Other” business segment, which comprised approximately 38% of total revenues in the most recent quarter, versus 51% of revenues in last year’s second quarter, were up approximately $1 million year-over-year. The increase was due, in part, to the acquisition of Printstock Products Limited by the Company’s New Zealand-based wholly owned subsidiary, Gourmet Foods. 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 second fiscal quarter. Cash and cash equivalents grew to $13.3 million from $9.8 million at June 30, 2020. Total stockholders’ equity increased to $23.1 million at December 31, 2020 from $19.1 million at the end of fiscal 2020. The company has essentially no debt.

“The increase in AUM notwithstanding, the performance of our Other subsidiaries also accounted for a significant portion of our revenue stream and operating income,” said David Neibert, Chief Operations Officer. “Regardless of the expected variations within the financial sector, we have proven that our model of diversification and decentralized management structure can, and does, produce a sustainable income with significant growth potential. This has become all the more apparent in today’s altered world because of the pandemic.”

“I am more than pleased with the performance of the management teams at each subsidiary, along with the support of our corporate staff during this difficult calendar year of lock downs, virtual meetings, work-from-home routines and a host of other hurdles,” added Nicholas Gerber, Chief Executive Officer. “During this time, we have managed to acquire yet another profitable company in New Zealand, and to further develop an exciting fintech app at our wholly owned subsidiary, Marygold & Co, which we hope to launch later in the year. All this, while continuing to post profits and build value for our shareholders. I look forward, as I’m sure everyone does, to a return to normalcy and using our new-found strengths to continuing growing our company and adding shareholder value in the future.”
