Outlook

Our track record of sustained rapid growth in growing markets has continued with another quarter breaking revenue record, and with Q2 having the highest single-quarter revenue ever. Q2 was the seventh consecutive record-breaking quarter for revenue. Consolidated revenue for Q2 2024 was $12,488,315, up 96% from $6,373,261 for the same period in 2023. The trend in growth carries forward to our net income as well, with Q2 2024 having a net income of $2,443,374, up 250% from $698,261 for the same period in 2023.

With its ambitious Vision 2030 economic development plan, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) is focused on diversifying its economy away from Oil & Gas by investing in digital transformation, AI, infrastructure, tourism, entertainment, and being a hub for financial activities in the region. With decades of experience in the region, we expect the strong demand for our services and products to continue as these sectors rapidly build out technical infrastructure and software and choose NTG as their preferred partner. KSA continues to be the primary contributor to our revenue growth with an increase of 146% over the same period last year.

We also have a team of sales personnel dedicated to our flagship software product, NTGapps, targeting new customers in this currently booming KSA economy. We are targeting small and medium enterprises (SME) across multiple verticals that now include the medical sectors and the food & beverage industry in addition to the telecom and financial sectors.

In 2021, management began transforming NTG Egypt into a supplier of offshore services for international customers through our Egypt Offshore Centre, scaling back sales activities in Egypt except for supporting NTG Egypt’s legacy customers. This strategy allows us to pay expenses in the devalued Egyptian Pound, while collecting revenue in stronger currencies such as the Saudi Riyal, which is pegged to the US Dollar.

Since embracing this offshore model, we have been able to connect more clients with talented candidates faster, accelerating their digital transformation journeys, all the while at a lower cost to them and providing consistent margins for NTG. This is NTG’s strategy; to hedge the devaluation of the Egyptian Pound while continuing to take advantage of growth in the region.

NTG’s current work on hand (which includes unbilled POs as of June 30, 2024, and new POs/contracts received and previously announced since then) is approximately $26.7 Million, the majority of which is expected to be completed in 2024. Note this does not include some of the announced contracts that we did not receive POs for. This, along with our $24.2 Million in booked revenue in 2024 YTD puts NTG in a strong position to meet our $50 Million 2024 revenue target.

As we enter the second half of 2024, we continue to grow with a focus on our four-part commitment to:

1. Customers by providing flexible, quality services at a competitive price.

We accelerate and simplify the digital transformation journey for our clients by providing the right solution delivered by passionate professionals both on their sites and offshore.

2. People by helping our staff grow and develop personally and professionally.

We empower our staff to build and deliver challenging projects while providing opportunities for training and career advancement both internally and outside NTG.

3. Shareholders by continuing our growth trajectory and profitability.

With purchase orders on-hand and contracts we expect to close, we project our 2024 revenue to be approximately $50 Million.
With three years of consistent profitability under our belt, we are actively identifying opportunities to make sure as much of this new revenue as possible flows to the bottom line.
The increase in share price in 2024 has gone from $0.20 in January to $0.93 at the end of June, a 365% increase in 6 months.

4. Community by passing our experience down to the next generation.

We provide youth education and employment opportunities tailored to the modern job market through the NTG Academies, School, and on-the-job training.

We look forward to continuing our growth through 2024 and beyond, using our growing funds to create value for our shareholders by investing in growth initiatives and continuing to pay down our longer-standing debts.
