Recruiter.com Announces First Quarter 2023 Financial Results

NEW YORK, NY / May 15, 2023 / Recruiter.com Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:RCRT)(NASDAQ:RCRTW) ("Recruiter.com"), an on-demand recruiting platform, today announced financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Evan Sohn, CEO of Recruiter.com, commented on the quarter. "We are pleased to share that we have made significant progress in reducing net loss and improving cash management in our operating activities. Through strategic partnerships, we are actively reducing our operating burn and expect this to be demonstrated in our Q2 operating results. We have encountered some challenges in the past two quarters, including sequential declines in revenue due to a deteriorated economic environment. However, we remain resilient and committed to overcoming these obstacles."

Mr. Sohn continued: "Our focus continues to be on improving our profitability. In line with our cost reduction initiatives, we launched new high-margin offerings, including our AI-enabled Candidate Pitch software, digital upskilling through Recruiting Classes, and a self-service platform, Recruiter Marketplace. By emphasizing these growth initiatives and remaining dedicated to our strategic goals, we are confident in our ability to navigate the current landscape and drive long-term success for our stakeholders."

First Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights (Full Results in Tables Below)

  • Revenue for the first quarter totaled $3.3 million, a 52% decrease compared to revenue of $6.9 million in the first quarter of 2022, due primarily to a decrease in the Recruiters on Demand business.
  • Gross profit for the first quarter was $737 thousand, a 73% decrease compared to gross profit of $2.7 million in the first quarter of 2022, due to lower total revenue and a shift away from permanent placement.
  • Total operating expenses for the first quarter were $3.5 million, a 48% decrease compared to operating expenses of $6.8 million in the first quarter of 2022, due primarily to reductions in staff and the ongoing efficiencies gained from the integration of asset acquisitions.
  • Net loss for the first quarter was $3.3 million, a 21% improvement compared to a net loss of $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2022. The net loss in the first quarter of 2023 included interest expense and finance cost of $512 thousand, non-cash depreciation and amortization expense of $314 thousand, bad debt expense of $200 thousand, and equity-based compensation expense of $543 thousand.
