Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 11, 2023) - ParcelPal Logistics Inc. (OTCQB: PTNYF) (CSE: PKG) (FSE: PT0A) (the "Company" or "ParcelPal"), is pleased to provide shareholders with the following mid-year corporate update regarding recent significant company initiatives, with more updates to follow in the coming days and weeks.
The Company has continued to make major improvements in regard to its operational performance as seen in our record Q1 2023 financials results highlighted by revenue of $2,965,043. The Company has sustained year over year revenue growth and, most importantly, 97% of our reported revenues are now recurring.
Over the last 6 months, the Company has continued to take a focused and disciplined approach in a volatile economy and market. It enabled us to not only continue to grow during an uncertain environment, but it has in fact led us to achieving record revenues in Q1 2023 and steady gross margins. Given some of the recent changes, we believe this has placed the Company in the strongest position for future growth and diversification that will spur higher revenues, margins and increased operating performance.
In the first half of 2023, the Company has increased its existing business with its largest clients. We see this continuing throughout the rest of the year as well as picking up some new large clients. It is important to note that over 60% of our revenue has historically occurred in the second half of our fiscal year. The Company also surpassed the 23 million delivery mark since inception, with the large majority of these deliveries coming in the past 2 years.
Given the increase in our customer base and strong continued growth in e-commerce, we expect our growth to continue at a solid pace, driven by organic growth throughout the rest of 2023, as demonstrated by our recently reported news about having our highest Q1 revenue in the history of the Company (https://finance.yahoo.com/news/parcelpal-logistics-inc-reports-record-120000216.html).
The Company is actively working on expanding operations into Asia, beginning in Japan, which is a large and active consumer products market that lends itself to our industry. Additionally, we believe the implementation of automation and various digital and mobile strategies will significantly increase our operational efficiencies along with further increasing our margins. We believe that our new tech offerings will greatly support our efforts to attain a full year of operating profitability and becoming cash flow positive on an annual basis.
CEO Rich Wheeless commented: "We have continued to make amazing strides within the company despite the major headwinds in the overall small cap and micro-cap markets. I am very proud to say that ParcelPal is not only well positioned to have its strongest second half of the year ever, but I see the trend continuing into next year as well. As the overall global markets turn around we would be able to further capitalize on the additional growth opportunities that will be presented to us."
