WILMINGTON, Del., Nov. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Onfolio Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: ONFO, ONFOW) (“Onfolio” or the “Company”), a holding company that acquires and manages a diversified portfolio of online businesses across a broad range of verticals, announces financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.
Financial Highlights
Third quarter 2023 revenue grew 273% year-over-year to $1.31 million compared to $0.35 million in the third quarter of 2022
Third quarter 2023 gross profit grew 526% to $0.85 million (representing gross margin of 64.5%) vs. $0.14 million in the prior year period (representing gross margin of 38.4%)
Third quarter 2023 total operating expenses increased 397% to $5.59 million (including approximately $3.8 million in impairment charges related to intangible assets) vs. $1.12 million in the prior year period
Third quarter 2023 net loss to common shareholders expanded to $4.79 million vs. $1.31 million net loss in the prior year period
Cash at September 30, 2023 was $3.38 million vs. $6.70 million at December 31, 2022
“The third quarter was marked by sequentially flat revenue and operating expenses that were nearly $300,000 lower than in the second quarter, excluding the impairment charge of intangible assets recognized in the third quarter. Our business model assumes that our success lies in buying stable online businesses and growing them organically over time while demonstrating operating leverage and keeping operating expenses in check,” commented Onfolio CEO Dominic Wells. “Despite a few one-time items impacting prior quarter results and the impairment charge this quarter, we believe our ability to manage operating expenses is apparent. To this end, we recently announced additional cost-savings initiatives that should show results beginning in the fourth quarter. We are committed to becoming profitable, and managing expenses is an important component of that process.
“Of course, another key component of our corporate strategy is growing organically as well as through acquisitions of sustainable online businesses. We have a number of corporate initiatives under way that should help us deliver organic growth, including the roll out of some AI tools that can help a number of our portfolio companies.
“On the acquisition front, we recently announced the raise of over $1 million through the sale of preferred shares and promissory notes. We continue to seek additional funds under the preferred share program and are also exploring other avenues to raise non-dilutive capital. I want to emphasize the funds we are seeking are considered growth capital and will be used to make product or business acquisitions, not to meet payroll or the like. We see a number of opportunities in the market and are optimistic about having news to share on this front in the near future,” concluded Mr. Wells.
