Dalrada Financial Corporation Announces $4.5 Million in Cost-Cutting Reductions to Accelerate Path to Profitability

Company aligns itself with business expectations, reducing G&A expenses and removing costs unnecessary to future success

SAN DIEGO, March 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dalrada Financial Corporation (OTCQB: DFCO, “Dalrada,” “the Company”), announced today that it has taken a series of intensive initiatives to reduce costs and drive efficiency in order to accelerate a path to profitability.

"As I have discussed in prior conversations with the public and our shareholders, our initial goal during fiscal 2024 was to cut costs by approximately $3 million and to reach profitability by the fourth quarter. I am happy to report that not only have we met our cost-cutting milestone, we’ve exceeded it, saving well over $4 million so far during the fiscal year. Now, we can be laser-focused on obtaining overall profitability," said Brian Bonar, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Dalrada.

During the first quarter alone of the 2024 calendar year, the Company has taken additional cost-cutting measures totaling approximately $2.8 million, ultimately reducing general and administrative (G&A) costs by $4.5 million for the fiscal year ending June 2024.

Dalrada is committed to concentrating on the core businesses that it has heavily invested its resources in, while continuing to identify expenses unnecessary to the success of the Company.

In alignment with the strategic changes of fiscal 2024, the Company has conducted the following actions:

  • Implemented NetSuite Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) across its global operations to enhance operating efficiency, accounting, and sales functions;
  • Rightsized indirect costs and generating efficiencies across the Company's supply chain and procurement;
  • Aligned G&A with short-term business expectations by reducing third-party professional fees and operating costs;
  • Streamlined the organization to drive process-related efficiencies through ISO 9001 certification;
  • Shuttered or spin-off legacy operating businesses that have not scaled toward profitability;
  • Restructured the Board of Directors to become compliant with NASDAQ requirements.

Because of the critical actions taken, Bonar expects Dalrada to be cash flow-positive by the end of the calendar year, mentioning his bold prediction and much more in a recent video with SmallCapVoice.

The Company is primed to realize profitability with a clear focus on the companies that have the greatest potential. "Achieving profitability in our core business segments of Dalrada Climate Technology and Genefic is crucial to the success of Dalrada and will support the long-term sustainability of the Company," added Bonar.
