Analysis of Financial Results
As a result of the Company's numerous acquisitions and strong organic growth, revenues increased to $165.6 million in the fiscal year ended May 31, 2016, compared to $128.8 million for the same period in 2015. Gross profit increased to over $29.0 million in the 2016 fiscal year, compared to $22.5 million for the same period in 2015. This represents gross margin of 17.5% for both periods, which is in line with the Company's expectations for gross profit as a percentage of revenue.
The Company's net loss for the year ended May 31, 2016 was $9.7 million, compared to a net loss of $18.1 million for the same period in 2015. The net loss was primarily attributable to non-cash and non-recurring accounting charges associated with the Company's capital structure.
"Staffing 360 Solutions has grown considerably from where we were a year ago," stated David Faiman, Chief Financial Officer. "Our top line revenue of $165 million is more than 28% greater than the amount achieved last year, and we have made significant progress reducing corporate overheads through our Pathway to Profitability initiative. This year, our operating expenses were reduced to 20.3% of revenue, compared to 23.3% of revenue last year. As Staffing 360 continues to grow through additional acquisitions, we have been experiencing increased productivity among our revenue generators along with reduced corporate overheads, which is helping improve our financial metrics."
