Sponsored by Businesswire

ReposiTrak (NYSE: TRAK), the world’s largest food traceability and regulatory compliance network, built upon its proven inventory management and out-of-stock reduction SaaS platform, today announced financial results for the second fiscal quarter (“FQ2 2024”) ended December 31, 2023.

Second Quarter Financial Highlights:

  • Second quarter total revenue increased 8% to $5.13 million from $4.75 million.

  • Recurring revenue increased 8%, net of the planned elimination of high-touch, low-opportunity revenue, to $5.13 million from $4.74 million, representing approximately 99% of total revenue.

  • Quarterly operating expense increased 9% to $3.88 million from $3.57 million, representing investments in sales, marketing and onboarding costs to further increase awareness about the FDA mandate and accelerating onboarding of customers to the ReposiTrak Traceability Network (“RTN”) solution.

  • Quarterly operating income increased 5% to $1.24 million from $1.18 million last year in spite of higher costs to gear up for traceability.

  • Quarterly GAAP net income increased 15% to $1.45 million from $1.27 million last year.

  • Quarterly net income to common shareholders was $1.30 million, up 17% from $1.12 million last year.

  • Quarterly EPS of $0.07, up 17% from $0.06 last year.

  • During the quarter, the Company repurchased 22,012 common shares at an average price of $8.79 per share for a total of $193,492.

  • During the quarter, the Company repurchased 70,093 preferred shares for the stated redemption price of $10.70 per share for a total of $749,995.

  • During the quarter, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the Company’s quarterly cash dividend, to 6.6 cents per share annually (1.65 cents per share quarterly), commencing with the December 2023 dividend.

Randall K. Fields, Chairman and CEO of ReposiTrak, commented, “ReposiTrak some years ago identified traceability as an important add-on and direction for our business. We positioned ourselves to be the market leader, and that is coming true. We are delivering traceability solutions, and the adoption of the repository traceability network has exceeded our early expectations. Based on recent market developments, we are convinced that the total addressable market is expanding significantly beyond our initial estimates. Traceability is already contributing to our top and bottom lines, and we expect that to increase significantly over the next two to three years.”

Mr. Fields continued, “In our view, even before the FDA mandate deadline of 2026, we expect the RTN will have significantly expanded to include a substantial portion of the food industry, creating another robust moat around our business for years to come. We believe a number of large retailers and wholesalers are in the process of accelerating the FDA deadline and scope. We are well prepared to take advantage of these changes. We are meeting this opportunity from a position of strength, with solid growth, consistent profitability and more than $23 million in cash on our balance sheet.”

Return of Capital:

In the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company repurchased 22,012 common shares at an average price of $8.79 per share for a total of $193,492.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company repurchased 70,093 preferred shares at the stated redemption price of $10.70 per share for a total of $749,995. The amount remaining under our repurchase program is $8.21 million. As previously announced, the Company anticipates redeeming all of its preferred stock issued and outstanding over the next three years from August 29, 2023.

In September 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.015 per share ($0.06 per year).

Balance Sheet:

The Company had $23.25 million in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2023, compared to $23.99 million at June 30, 2023. The reduction in cash reflects the payment of common stock dividends, and buyback of common shares and redemption of preferred stock during the period.
