PHOENIX, AZ, March 31, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE – SinglePoint, Inc. (OTCQB: SING) ("SinglePoint" or the "Company") today reported audited financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2019. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had total sales of $3,343,833 and $1,154,671, respectively, representing an 189% increase in year over year gross revenue.
The primary driver of the revenue increase of$2,189,162 in revenues was due to the acquisition of Direct Solar in May 2019 representing six months of revenue through December 31, 2019. On a full-year unaudited pro forma basis Direct Solar America would have surpassed $4,000,000 in revenue as reported in the 2019 Annual Report.. The Gross Profit was $990,777 for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared with a Gross Profit of $267,799 for the year ended December 31, 2018, representing a 269% increase for the year over year. The overall net loss decreased in 2019 as compared to 2018.
“The positive operational results in 2019 represent the commitment we have to our stakeholders to enhance revenues by executing on growth initiatives and acquisitions that we believe will continue to add value. We are ecstatic about the continued growth of SinglePoint and look forward to achieving significant growth through 2020. Through the acquisition of Direct Solar America, we have firmly established ourselves as a leading provider of residential solar concierge services, designed to assist customers with making the best choice based on their specific needs. Throughout 2019 and into 2020 Direct Solar has continued to grow revenue and expand its service footprint which now includes coverage in 25 states. Business development and expansion is continuing as contractors continue looking for solutions that increase their revenue and bottom such as those provided to them when they partner with the Direct Solar Residential Platform,” according to Greg Lambrecht, Chairman and CEO of SinglePoint.
The success and rapid achievement of business unit profitability by the Direct Solar Residential Business Unit gave us confidence to support the creation of a separate business unit for commercial solar sales. The Direct Solar Commercial Business unit, established in the second half of 2019, quickly built a robust pipeline of small to mid-sized commercial deals that have the ability to generate immediate and long term revenue representing millions of dollars of combined annual and recurring revenue potential.
“I am extremely proud of the results driven by our senior management team in 2019. As a standalone entity, the Direct Solar America Residential Business Unit ultimately ended the year profitably, which is an incredible achievement for a start up in its first few months of operation. These profits were allocated to enable initial funding and startup costs for the Commercial and Capital Solar Business Units. As SinglePoint grows we will continue to seek out additional business opportunities internally and externally in the renewable energy sector,” states Greg Lambrecht CEO SinglePoint.
In addition to the annual revenue growth results and operational improvements, the Company successfully re-paid a convertible investor note, (the “CVP Note”) dated October 10, 2017, during the first quarter (Q1) of 2020. The Company and management will continue to find accretive ways to work with our investing partners to strategically eliminate outstanding notes in order to improve the balance sheet as we believe it is in the best interest of our shareholders. The Company’s fully reporting status will improve our ability to access the necessary growth capital through more traditional financing sources and it should be further enhanced by its entrance into multiple emerging business markets in conjunction with delivering consistent annual revenue growth as represented in the 2019 audited financial results.
