Management Commentary
“We are pleased with our third quarter results, as we continue to experience accelerated growth,” said Mark Newcomer, Chief Executive Officer, 3PEA International. “In the first nine months of 2017 we successfully launched a record number of new card programs for both new and existing clients. Our pipeline continues to remains strong, and we look forward to continued top and bottom line growth in the remainder of 2017 as we continue to develop innovative payment solutions for corporate, government and consumer markets.”
“The increase in revenue in the third quarter and nine month period was primarily a result of growth in our cardholder base throughout our prepaid programs,” said Brian Polan, Chief Financial Officer, 3PEA International. “We expect our revenue growth to accelerate for the remainder of 2017, as we launched a record number of programs this year, reflecting an increase in card programs of more than 65 percent, year over year. Although gross margins remained unchanged year over year, third quarter gross margins were negatively impacted by costs associated with launching new card programs. The company expects gross margins to improve in 2018, as the newly launched programs mature.”
