Management Commentary
“The momentum we established in the first half of the year has carried into the third quarter of 2014, as shown by our 61% increase in revenues,” said Mark Newcomer, President and CEO of 3PEA International. “Subsequent to the third quarter, we launched our PaySign® brand of prepaid debit card solutions, which is built on the PaySign platform. This platform provides much higher operating margins and allows us to quickly design and implement comprehensive prepaid debit card payment solutions in a variety of industries that are customizable and cost effective for our customers.
“Since its launch, we’ve reached agreements with several reputable partners, such as Visa, who will be providing marketing support as we roll out our PaySign brand. We also signed an agreement to integrate our PaySign Connect payment solution with Haemonetics’ Donor Management System, the plasma industry’s leading donor management software. These agreements with industry leaders validate our solutions in the marketplace and provide numerous avenues for growth, not only in the emerging plasma industry, but in other targeted verticals as well, such as retail, corporate incentives, payroll and universities, among others.
“We continue to aggressively pursue new business, as evidenced by our agreements with The Interstate Companies and B Positive National Blood Services, where we will serve as the exclusive plasma donor payment solution in their collective 24 centers nationwide, further expanding our presence in the plasma industry. Taking these agreements into account, we are now servicing a collective 78 plasma centers in the U.S., which is a significant increase when compared to the 25 plasma centers in the third quarter of 2013.
“We’ve also began establishing a highly experienced advisory board to counsel on important industry trends and strategic issues, present networking opportunities and provide insight and guidance into the end markets in which we are competing. Recent additions to the advisory board include Lenny Goodman, the Director of Information Technologies for The Interstate Companies, and Alex Goldberg, former Ford Motor Land Services President. We strongly believe their wide range of talents, experience and insight will significantly benefit 3PEA as we execute on our strategic growth initiatives.”
“Given the anticipated acceleration in our business,” concluded Newcomer, “we will continue to prudently invest in our operational infrastructure and professional talent to ultimately support a much larger, mature organization.”
Fiscal 2014 Outlook
The Company’s guidance for fiscal 2014 remains unchanged with expected revenues of $9.25 million to $9.75 million, which represents an increase of 47% to 55% over fiscal 2013. The company also expects record net income in fiscal 2014.
