PUDO Inc. reports FY 2024 third quarter end results
Toronto, Canada, January 5, 2024 – PUDO Inc. (“PUDO” or the “Company”) (CSE: PDO; OTCQB: PDPTF), today filed interim financial results (unaudited) and operational highlights for its third quarter which ended November 30, 2023 (“Q3 FY 2024”)
Year over Year | Q1-Q3 FY 2024 | Q1-Q3 FY 2023 | % Change |
Revenue from Operations | $2,392,321 | $2,917,976 | -18.0% |
Gross Profit | $975,481 | $1,134,015 | -14.0% |
Net loss and comprehensive loss for the period | ($410,986) | ($211,062) | 93.8%* |
* Net Loss position declined by net 93.8% “
Commented Elliott Etheredge, PUDO CEO, “This quarter we began the network expansion program with Wish and are encouraged by the initial results of that rollout. We have also continued to expand our returns network in New York, New Jersey, and Miami. The expansion of these programs has helped to offset the negative impact of the large customer that changed their operating model earlier this year which continues to depress our quarter-over-quarter revenue.”
In Q3 FY 2024, returns accounted for 46.5% of revenue vs. 27.8% in Q3 FY 2023.
PUDO continues to expand the availability and volume of its PUDO Label Return services. By increasing the number of retailers using the solution and partnering with additional SAAS and 3PL providers, the PUDO network is becoming an important part of the e-commerce returns solution.
A complete copy of the interim consolidated financial statements and the Management’s Discussion and Analysis Report for the three and nine month periods ended November 30, 2023, can be found on the CSE website at www.thecse.com and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
