- Company Reports Profitable Performance, Maintains Strong Balance Sheet -

SAN CLEMENTE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The Marygold Companies, Inc. (“TMC” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: MGLD) (formerly Concierge Technologies, Inc.), a diversified global holding firm, today reported financial results for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

Net revenues for the 2023 fiscal year amounted to $34.9 million, compared with $37.8 million for the 2022 fiscal year. Net income for fiscal 2023 rose slightly to $1.2 million, equal to $0.03 per fully diluted share, from $1.1 million, also equal to $0.03 per fully diluted share, in the prior fiscal year.

For the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2023, revenues were $8.9 million, compared with $9.9 million for the same period last year. Net income for the most recent fourth quarter was $326 thousand, equal to $.01 per share, compared with $1.1 million, or $0.3 per fully diluted share, for the prior year period.

The Company’s balance sheet remained strong at the close of the 2023 fiscal year. Total stockholders’ equity rose to $30.4 million at June 30, 2023, from $29.0 million a year ago. Total assets at fiscal year-end remained constant at $35.3 million. Cash and cash equivalents at the close of fiscal 2023 were $8.2 million, versus $12.9 million at June 30, 2022, with the decline principally attributable to a movement of cash to short term equity investments, which increased to $11.5 million versus $5.1 million in the prior year, as well as expenses associated with completing the development of the Company’s mobile fintech app, which recently was soft-launched by TMC’s subsidiary, Marygold & Co. TMC again ended the year essentially debt-free.

Lower assets under management (AUM) at TMC’s principal subsidiary, USCF Investments, along with new fund startup costs, impacted USCF’s revenues for fiscal 2023, which amounted to $20.9 million, versus $23.8 million for the prior year. USCF had average AUM of $3.7 billion for fiscal 2023, compared with $4.4 billion last year.

Results for The Marygold Companies’ other principal operating subsidiaries – Gourmet Foods, Brigadier Security Systems, Marygold & Co (UK), and Original Sprout – were impacted by a number of factors during fiscal 2023, including the inflationary pressures that affected the cost of raw materials, along with higher shipping and labor expenses and unfavorable currency translation at the Company’s New Zealand operation.

“Gourmet Foods, Brigadier Security Systems, and Marygold & Co (UK) were all profitable for the year, however Original Sprout sustained an operating loss, as it shifts its business model to address post-COVID-19 changes in consumer buying habits. While Original Sprout faced an erosion of profit margins and a fragmented sales channel during the past year due to online shopping trends effecting its long-standing domestic distribution model, management is in the final stages of correcting this situation and expects a return to growth in the new fiscal year.

“Additionally, we are anticipating moderate growth at Brigadier through new, focused management initiatives and partnering with local telecoms and contractors, and we expect Gourmet Foods to be operating more efficiently, as low margin products are eliminated and new channels to market are established,” Neibert added.

Nicholas Gerber, TMC’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “Fiscal 2023 marked the completion of the initial development stage and the nationwide soft launch of our new mobile fintech app, an innovative digital platform that enables users to spend, invest and save with FDIC-insured accounts. The launch culminated nearly four years of development and more than $9 million of investments by TMC, entirely funded from internal cash flow, while our Company remained debt-free. We look forward to implementing marketing plans for the app in the new fiscal year.”

“As CEO, I appreciate the talent and hard work it has taken for us to reach this product development milestone,” Gerber said. “As well, I wish to thank our shareholders for their patience and express my gratitude to the entire Marygold team throughout the world for their dedication to making our Company a success and for working collaboratively and diligently to position TMC for future growth and to create long-term value for of all of our stakeholders.”
