Randall K. Fields, Chairman and CEO of Park City Group commented, “Park City continues to make progress in our focus on recurring revenue and our earnings per share growth - with the virtual elimination of non-recurring revenue and EPS increasing 194% for the quarter vs. the year-ago quarter. This increase is due to a 128% increase in GAAP net income, along with the repurchase and retirement of more than 192,700 shares in the quarter, meaningfully reducing our capitalization by over 8% since inception.”

“Park City maintains a fortress balance sheet, including more than $1.10 per share in cash, and has delivered consistent profitability, with over 20 consecutive GAAP profitable quarters, and continued strong cash generation. As a result, the Board of Directors has determined that the time is appropriate to return a portion of our future cash flow to shareholders, in the form of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.015 per share, to augment our stock buyback authorization and our investments for organic growth.

“As the pandemic wanes, we are seeing demand for our SaaS solutions continues to grow, and we are preparing our company and our base of loyal customers to ultimately benefit from our traceability solution,” added Mr. Fields. “Our partnership with the National Grocers Association, a leading trade organization that covers one-third of all grocery stores and more independent owners than any other trade group, serves as a powerful validation of our capability to help retailers, wholesalers and suppliers navigate the profound challenges associated with the Food Safety Modernization Act’s Section 204, scheduled to be published in November 2022. Rule 204 will be the single largest change to the food supply chain collaboration in history. Park City Group is the proven partner, well-positioned to help the industry navigate these changes.”

Fourth Quarter Financial Results (three months ended June 30, 2022, vs. three months ended June 30, 2021):

Total revenue decreased 21% to $4.6 million as compared to $5.8 million due to eliminating $1.5 million of MarketPlace non-recurring revenue and sunsetting recurring revenue for products and services in order to focus on traceability. Total operating expense decreased 35% to $3.5 million due to lower corresponding MarketPlace revenue and lower overall SG&A expense. GAAP net income was $1.1 million, up 136% compared to $470,000. Net income to common shareholders increased 185% to $950,000, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared to $333,000, or $0.02 per diluted share.

Full-Year Financial Results (12 months ended June 30, 2022, vs. 12 months ended June 30, 2021):

Total revenue decreased 14% to $18.0 million as compared to $21.0 million due to the over $4 million planned elimination of all non-recurring revenue. Total operating expense decreased 25% to $13.6 million due to elimination of MarketPlace costs and lower overall SG&A. GAAP net income was $4.0 million versus $4.1 million. The prior-year period included a $1.1 million gain related to the forgiveness of the Company’s PPP loan. Absent the one-time gain, net income increased 33%.
