Third Quarter 2020 Financial Results
- Revenue ending nine months was $6.16 million, representing a 50.9% increase year-over-year. Revenue for the quarter was $1.99 million. This increase resulted from a rise in hiring in our Permanent Placement business line, particularly in connection with the mortgage industry, as well as an increase in our Recruiters on Demand business;
- Net income in the third quarter of 2020 was $1.44 million, or $0.28 per share, and included $4.21 million in non-cash income, primarily a result of the change in the fair value of a derivative liability;
- Adjusted EBITDA was $(0.71) million, compared to $(0.54) million in the third quarter of 2019.
