Pandemic-Impacted Revenue Slowly Improving
NEW YORK, June 26, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Staffing 360 Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: STAF), a company executing an international buy-integrate-build strategy through the acquisition of staffing organizations in the United States and the United Kingdom, today announced Fiscal 2020 first quarter results, which were impacted in March by the economic downturn resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Brendan Flood, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer said, “Q1 results were directly in line with the guidance provided in our year-end financial results call. As anticipated, the revenue decline was principally due to the loss of a low-margin client in the UK and the impact of IR35 payroll tax legislation in the UK. Additionally, late in the quarter both countries in which we do business were negatively impacted by the swift worldwide economic turndown due to COVID-19.
“It’s important to note that we have moved from $2.9 million negative cash flow in Q1 2019 to breakeven in Q1 2020, driven by the successful management of our accounts receivables aging (particularly in the UK) and our overall cost controls – most of which will flow through into the second and third quarters.”
Q1 2020 Overview
- Revenue declined by 20.5% to $58.7 million, from $73.8 million in Q1 ’19
- Gross profit declined by 12.1% to $10.6 million, from $12.1 million in Q1 ’19
- Gross margin increased to 18.1% compared with 16.4% in Q1 ’19
- Income (Loss) from operations of ($4.1 million) compared with income from operations of $0.8 million in Q1 ’19 was primarily driven by a goodwill impairment charge of $3 million
- Net Income (Loss) of ($7.0 million) compared with net gain of $0.2 million in Q1 ’19
- EBITDA declined to negative ($4.0 million) from $3.1 million in Q1 ’19
- Adjusted EBITDA remained positive at $1.2 million, down from $2.0 million in Q1 ’19
Flood continued, “I am very proud of the way our team quickly and efficiently reorganized itself to effectively begin and continued working remotely. We have served, and are continuing to serve, our clients efficiently and productively during these unprecedented times of economic turbulence.
“I am more than pleased to be able to report that we are encouraged to see revenue improvement, albeit slow, over the past four weeks. We are cautiously optimistic looking ahead into the end of year.
“Based on our current outlook, I believe that the combined US and UK government stimulus assistance we’ve received ($19.4 million from a forgivable US PPP loan, and $1.3 million VAT deferral and government-funded furlough program from the UK) will make a significant positive improvement in our full year financial results. We expect that our use of the US PPP funds should qualify for and allow for full, or nearly full, forgiveness of that loan. We are actively evaluating additional US and UK government programs for which we may qualify,” Flood concluded.
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 US 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.
