HOUSTON, TX, May 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire – SMG Industries, Inc. (“SMG” or the "Company") (OTCQB: SMGI), a growth-oriented transportation services company focused on the domestic infrastructure logistics market, today announced its unaudited consolidated revenues from operations for first quarter ended March 31, 2023, amounting to $20,869,763. This record revenue represents a 29% increase compared to the $16,181,053 reported in the comparable quarter Q1, 2022. The Company achieved positive Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, amounting to $1,083,610, continuing the upward trend resulting from increased revenues and firm pricing during the period. Additional information regarding Adjusted EBITDA, as well as a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure of net income (loss), is provided in the “Adjusted EBITDA Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) Reconciliation Table” section below.
The improvement in first quarter ended March 31, 2023 compared to the first quarter 2022 was driven by continued growth in volumes and consistent price improvements in the Company’s Industrial Division, supported by increased demand for super heavy haul projects, infrastructure, and additional production hauling revenue lines. The Company’s brokerage business, known as 5J Logistics Services, also contributed solid operating revenues. The positive performance of Adjusted EBITDA in Q1 was attributed to consistent sales volume, increased asset usage, and improved diversification of higher-margin revenue lines within the industrial division, as well as ongoing cost-cutting measures.
Mr. Matt Flemming, Chairman of SMG, stated, "The Company continues to experience the benefits of higher activity levels from its customers and is reaping the rewards of its commitment to new end market diversification. Additionally, the Company remains actively engaged in seeking opportunities for acquisitions that are accretive to its business, as well as identifying non-cyclical revenue lines to sustain growth initiatives, enhance competitiveness, and increase its equipment fleet utilization.”
For more detailed financial results, management's discussion and analysis, and risk factors, please refer to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2023, filed on May 15, 2023.
