“We continue to stay very disciplined in our ability to increase earnings in order to drive increased cash flow into the business,” said Steve Levely, CEO of Ackroo. “As we continue to position ourselves for scale and/or a potential sale, our earnings generation are key to those plans. As we generate more cash we have the ability to pay down debt, buy back shares, complete more acquisitions and ultimately improve our financial state. While year-over-year revenue growth was modest, we did deliver 6% quarter-over-quarter revenue growth helping us bounce back from a slower start to the year as well. We delivered these results while making several operational changes to reduce costs and improve efficiencies, plus we made significant advancements to our technology to allow us to finish our migration of Simpliconnect and to position us well for the quarters ahead. The Company continues to improve on all fronts and looks forward to an exciting and fruitful second half of the year.”
