MPHASE REPORTS RECORD THIRD QUARTER REVENUE AND FIRST PROFITABLE QUARTER IN COMPANY HISTORY

Published

on

Gaithersburg, MD, May 20, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — mPhase Technologies, Inc. (OTC: XDSL) (“mPhase” or the “Company”) today reported record financial results for its third fiscal 2020 quarter and nine-month period ended March 31, 2020. In conjunction with this release, the Company is also providing additional details on its business initiatives for the remainder of calendar year 2020.For Q3/2020, management is noting the following items of importance:Net income totaled $1.4 million, achieving the first profitable quarter in Company history;Earnings per share was a record $0.11 per common share, or $0.02 per common share on a fully diluted basis;Revenue set a Q3 company record of $7.6 million, compared to zero revenue reported in Q3/2019;Gross profit margin was 25.6%, on track with the trend for fiscal 2020;Software development costs declined significantly to approximately $17,000 from $0.9 million during Q2/2020 as the Company continues to build out its experienced internal team and reduce its use of consultant developers;Revenue mix consisted of 82% subscription, 11% service and support, and 7% application development and implementation; andShareholder equity increased to $2.6 million, an increase from $0.6 million at June 30, 2019 and a deficit of $1.8 million at March 31, 2019“We are very proud to achieve the first profitable quarter in company history only one-year after taking over mPhase,” said CEO Anshu Bhatnagar. “We’ve guided to $30 million in annual revenue off of our critical testing business and are tracking to that forecast almost perfectly. We will be raising our guidance after we assess the timing of revenue from our acquisition of CloseComms Limited (“CloseComms”), which we announced just a few days ago. We are at the very beginning of the revenue cycle at CloseComms, so this will add a second stream of recurring revenue, which we believe will provide mPhase double digit sequential quarterly growth as deployments begin to increase. We also expect to generate growth in our core learning and testing business, so we are on the cusp of a new growth cycle at mPhase.”Key items of interest for calendar year 2020 include:Based on positive response in the sales channel, CloseComms expects to announce deployments, pilots and other engagements with major quick service restaurants (“QSRs”) during the remainder of 2020;The Travel Buddhi division continues to be on track for the launch of the next phase of its platform during Q1 of fiscal year 2021 (summer 2020);The Learning Track division continues experiencing interest from potential new customers;The mPhase team continues to grow and now includes more than 100 employees on three continents with the most recent acquisition of CloseComms;The Company is currently exploring additional product initiatives across all divisions, with the goal to add additional revenue streams before the end of the calendar year.“We are particularly excited about the strategic CloseComms acquisition, both for its organic growth potential, but also as a complementary ‘missing piece’ technology for our Travel Buddhi platform,” said CEO Bhatnagar. “Our goal is to create a one-stop shop for brands that want customer engagement and traffic on a local, regional or global basis. We have assembled the team and the technology to achieve this goal under a highly scalable software as a service (SaaS) model, with strong recurring elements. Once we get these platforms fully deployed, we believe this will be an eye opener for many major consumer companies who require a high level of customer engagement. We now have the opportunity to gain revenue on a recurring per location subscription basis and on a transactional basis. I can’t overstate the importance of the data that these separate platforms will generate, which will create a valuable new revenue stream over time.”As previously reported, mPhase continues to experience only modest disruption from the global COVID-19 pandemic. Based on current sales activity across its divisions, the company expects continued growth through the remainder of fiscal and calendar year 2020. However, as the Company cannot predict the scope or duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the event of any negative financial impact to its results of operations, such impact cannot be reasonably estimated but could ultimately be material and last for an extended period of time.About mPhase TechnologiesmPhase is a technology driven, innovative development company that creates and commercializes products and applications that impact everyday people. The Company is assembling industry-leading teams specializing in artificial intelligence, machine learning, software, consumer engagement, and other advanced technologies.

RepTrak Announces 2024 Global RepTrak® 100 Report

Published

on

reptrak-announces-2024-global-reptrak-100-report

BOSTON, April 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The RepTrak™ Company, the world’s leading reputation data and insights company, released its annual Global RepTrak 100 report. Utilizing its advanced reputation monitoring software, RepTrak gathered data from more than 243,000 survey responses across 14 major economies to rank the world’s 100 most reputable companies. They share that ranking alongside a full analysis of global corporate reputation trends and corresponding public sentiment in the 2024 report.

After two years of consecutive Reputation Score declines, this year’s Score is back up with an increase from 73.2 in 2023 to 73.8 in 2024. It’s a small increase after 2023’s full one-point drop. However, it’s an encouraging sign that companies have begun to recover from reputation falls driven by many challenges: macroeconomic issues, workplace difficulties, product problems, and corporate responsibility skepticism.
“This year’s report underscores a pivotal shift in the corporate landscape, spotlighting the remarkable adaptability and dedication of the Top 100 companies in responding to the dynamic needs of stakeholders,” states RepTrak CEO Mark Sonders. “The companies featured in our report are not just riding the wave of change; they are the ones steering it, proving that the best approach to business is one that embraces evolution and champions progress.”
RepTrak’s report explores how people thought, felt, and acted toward companies over the past year. Findings include notable increases in Conduct and Citizenship efforts, stakeholders’ rising willingness to invest, culturally resonant brand communications, and ESG Scores that soared despite skepticism around the acronym.

group-ib-takes-part-in-a-global-operation-to-cripple-canadian-phishing-as-a-service-provider-labhost

SINGAPORE, April 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Group-IB, a leading cybersecurity company aimed at investigating, preventing, and fight digital crime announced today that it participated in a coordinated global takedown operation against prominent Canadian Phishing-as-a-Service (PhaaS) provider LabHost, which has led to the arrest of 37 suspects across the United Kingdom and around the world by law enforcement agencies. As part of the operation, Group-IB also conducted an extensive analysis of LabHost’s criminal history and infrastructure, including insights into LabHost’s administrative platform and the services it provides to its purported user base which exceeds 2,000 subscribers worldwide, who illegally obtained around 480,000 card numbers, 64,000 pin numbers, and over 1 million passwords from victims used for websites and other online services, according to law enforcement agencies.

“By leveraging our Threat Intelligence and Digital Risk Protection, we are able to identify and monitor phishing attacks and websites like those deployed by LabHost and its subscribers around the world, enabling us to actively alert and protect our customers, and in turn, their customers as well,” said Dmitry Volkov, Chief Executive Officer of Group-IB. “Today’s takedown operation demonstrates the agility and responsiveness of our decentralized Digital Crime Resistance Centers, and how quickly we can provide immediate and local assistance wherever our customers may be.”
First uncovered in late 2021, LabHost emerged as a fully automated Phishing-as-a-Service (PhaaS) platform, streamlining the creation of phishing websites meticulously mirroring the interface and functionality of prominent banking, postal, and financial entities, aimed at intercepting, seizing, and profiting from users’ personal, credit card, and online banking credentials. Users are prompted to select from various “membership plans,” tailored to target businesses and individuals in either the United States and Canada, or globally, akin to mobile subscription models. These plans encompass “standard,” “premium,” and “world membership” tiers, priced between US$179 and US$300 monthly, with options for monthly, quarterly, or annual billing cycles.

Over the next few years, Malaysia is poised to witness significant growth in data center investments, driven by the influx of operators like AirTrunk, Equinix, Princeton Digital Group, and other leading companies. Key hubs like Cyberjaya, Kuala Lumpur, and Johor Bahru are expected to see heightened activity, hosting most of the country’s data centers.
The wholesale colocation sector is projected to experience a revenue surge fueled by major cloud players like Microsoft, Google, and AWS. These companies have unveiled plans to establish dedicated cloud regions within Malaysia, with expected timelines for deployment within the next one to two years. This trend underscores Malaysia’s growing importance as a regional hub for data infrastructure and cloud services.
Malaysia is among the top expensive markets globally for developing data centers. Malaysia’s data center construction cost in 2023 stood at about $8.5-$10 million per MW, making it the costliest market in the APAC region after Singapore and Jakarta.
