  • Same Store Sales increased by 2.1% or $50,000 in the eighteen Georgia locations and 2.3% in the mobile testing units despite a system-wide shut down due to a ransomware attack of the Georgia Clean Air Force (GCAF) contract company. Missouri same store revenue increased 62.3%. This was largely due to the removal of state government regulations which had been put in place in response to Covid-19.
  • Store Operating Expenses increased $19,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period of 2020, primarily due to the adjustment of store employee payroll in 2021.

  • The Company had a Net Income of $509,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to a Net Income of $280,000 for the same period 2020. The increase is attributed partly to the forgiveness of the PPP loan, plus $88,000 as the result of the write-off of certain accounts payable and accrued expenses. These were partially offset by the recognition of $130,000 in accumulated penalty and interest costs resulting from our settlement of prior years’ 941 issues with the IRS. Without this net other income differential of $198,000 for year-to-date 2021, net operating income for the nine months 2021 would be $304,000. This represents a $31,000 or 11% increase over the $273,000 net operating income recorded for the same period in 2020.
