Randall K. Fields, Chairman and CEO of Park City Group commented, “I believe our financial performance speaks for itself. The results from our long standing, customer-centric strategy ensure our customers’ success with our services, while maintaining and deepening our relationship is driving growth. To that end, we have expanded our sales organization with the addition of senior customer relationship managers with deep, relevant and diversified industry experience, and augmented our senior management team, adding depth across virtually every functional area of the business. These additions have enabled us to solve real and important business problems for our customers. Solving those real problems for our customers is expanding our business.”

Mr. Fields continued, “Most of our growth is due to expanding the services to our existing customer network. However, we have added new customers and, importantly, we are already generating modest revenue from our ReposiTrak Traceability Network^® (RTN), well ahead of schedule. We now have more than 3,000 grocery stores, about 1,100 suppliers and over 20 distribution centers committed to rolling out on our network, with just a fraction of the total suppliers onboarded. This represents about 8% of the retail grocery industry, just a small piece of the market we believe we will ultimately secure. We are now increasing our attention to other vertical markets affected by the FDA traceability rule, such as restaurants, and convenience stores.”

“Improved sales execution is facilitating an increase in cross-selling, which should accelerate our fiscal 2024 revenue growth,” added Mr. Fields. “Based on signed agreements already in-hand, we expect accelerated top-line growth to bring our growth rates in line with the 10-20% average we target, especially as the headwinds from de-emphasizing non-core revenue is largely behind us. With increasing benefits from the initial RTN revenue, we have growing confidence that fiscal 2024 will be a year of accelerating revenue growth and increased profitability.”

Total operating expense was $3.30 million, down 2% compared to $3.38 million last year, reflecting a 22% decrease in general and administrative expense, partially offset by investments in traceability and other growth initiatives.
