NAPERVILLE, Ill., Dec. 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Track Group, Inc. (OTCQB: TRCK), a global leader in offender tracking and monitoring services, today announced financial results for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 (“FY24�). In FY24, the Company posted (i) total revenue of $36.9 Million (“M�), an increase of approximately 7.0% over total revenue of $34.5M for the year ended September 30, 2023 (“FY23�); (ii) FY24 operating loss of ($1.9M) compared to FY23 operating loss of ($1.5M); and (iii) net loss attributable to common shareholders of ($3.1M) in FY24 compared to net loss attributable to common shareholders of ($3.4M) in FY23.

This progress reflects the increased use of our products and services in legacy programs and continued expansion through newly awarded contracts domestically and abroad. With a strong pipeline and a commitment to delivering value, we are poised for continued success in fiscal year 2025.� said Derek Cassell, Track Group’s CEO.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

  • Total FY24 revenue of $36.90M increased approximately 7.0% compared to FY23 revenue of $34.5M. The rise in revenue was driven principally by an increase in people assigned to monitoring for clients in Illinois and the Bahamas offset by decreases in revenue for our customer in Chile.

  • Gross profit of $17.2M in FY24 increased approximately 12.5% compared to FY23 gross profit of $15.3M due to an increase in revenue, lower monitoring center costs and lower communication costs, partially offset by higher device repair costs and higher server costs.

  • Operating loss in FY24 of ($1.9M) increased compared to the operating loss of ($1.5M) in FY23. The increase in net loss in FY24 is primarily due to non-recurring expenses including an impairment charge of approximately $0.8M associated with assets held for sale and a settlement related to a contract dispute of approximately $1.0M.

  • Adjusted EBITDA for FY24 of $5.4M, increased compared to $3.8M for FY23 due to an increase in revenue and gross profit. Adjusted EBITDA in FY24 as a percentage of revenue increased to 14.6%, compared to 11.1% for FY23 for the same reasons.

  • Cash balance of $3.6M for FY24 decreased compared to $4.1M for FY23. The change in cash position was principally due to the reinvestment in monitoring technology and the payment of a settlement related to a contract dispute.

  • Net loss attributable to shareholders in FY24 was ($3.1M) compared to net loss of ($3.4M) in FY23, a change principally attributable to higher gross profit, and income tax benefit, partially offset by higher operating expense and higher other expense.

Business Outlook

Track Group returned to revenue and gross profit growth in FY24, which reinforces our confidence in the strategic reinvestment in technology and the implementation of new programs initiated in late FY23. These endeavors position us well for sustained growth throughout FY25. As a result, the Company's preliminary outlook for FY25 is as follows:
