mPhase Technologies Announces Pebble Service Revenue Guidance


Rockville, MD, Nov. 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- mPhase Technologies, Inc. (OTC Pink: XDSL) (“mPhase” or the “Company”), a leading climate technology company with services that transform how both merchants and consumers profit from sustainability-oriented commerce and lifestyle choices, is pleased to provide revenue guidance for its newly implemented Pebble sustainability business. This new service revenue is forecast to rise from $1.75 million in fiscal year 2023, to $18.2 million in fiscal 2024, and $52.56 million by fiscal 2025; with EBITDA positive results expected in fiscal 2024. This represents a CAGR of 448% over this three-year period. As a reminder, the Company’s fiscal year ends on June 30th.

For purposes of clarification, please note that today’s forecast is for the new Pebble sustainability services business only and does not include the Company’s legacy learning business revenue. The new sustainability services revenue is expected to be primarily recurring, generated from monthly subscriptions with hospitality partners; and from consumers who upgrade to the Pebble premium service.

The core value of the Pebble ecosystem is its industry-first integration of energy, EV and sustainability services, supported by consumer loyalty engagement technology that rewards consumers for their sustainable purchase decisions. Under this strategy, EV charging is at the center of the Company’s catalogue of sustainability offerings. Pebble will install and operate its own charger network plus leverage existing public chargers to directly link EV fueling to sales for Pebble hospitality partners. The software backbone of the ecosystem consists of a multi-cloud services platform that powers a consumer-first mobile app and combines AI, location-awareness, tokenization and game-mechanics to drive sales and ROI for hospitality members of the network. The platform is uniquely suited to gain traction with consumers in the sustainability-conscious GenX and millennial demographic groups, a growing area of emphasis for retailers.

“Our rebranding to Pebble is more than just a name change, it is a commitment to a new vision that signifies the arrival of sustainability services that provide valuable benefits for both merchants and consumers,” explained CEO Richard Thorpe. “Pebble not only strengthens the relationship between retailers and consumers, but also mitigates the impact of climate change by influencing consumer behavior and providing a catalyst for consumers to reach their own personal sustainability goals.”

Operationally, the Company has entered its go-to-market phase and is in active discussions with a growing list of major hospitality brands. The Pebble consumer mobile app is due to be released this quarter, and will be available on both the App Store and on the Google Play store. The Company is in the process of a corporate-wide rebranding to the Pebble name, along with a new stock symbol. As this rebranding commences, management intends to provide an investor call and online materials to better explain the Pebble strategy to shareholders and prospective customers.
