Vivek Gupta, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer stated: “The possibility of a
recession continued to weigh in on clients’ spending dynamics during the second quarter of 2023 – particularly in the financial services industry. As a result, both or our business segments experienced revenue declines in the second
quarter of 2023. While we see a modest improvement in demand from some of our clients, we are aggressively pursuing measures to reduce our cost structure in response to these challenging times. Finally, it’s important to reiterate that we
believe that our businesses remain fundamentally sound, and that our balance sheet is solid, given that we had no bank debt and $18.6 million of cash on hand as of June 30, 2023.”
Michael Fleishman, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer of the Data and Analytics Services segment stated: “We continued to make progress in
expanding our bookings and pipeline of opportunities during the second quarter. We also achieved improvements in utilization during the second quarter of 2023, which helped increase our gross margins to 45.6% from 38.5% in the previous quarter.
However, in the first half of 2023, we have been challenged by clients reducing resources on existing projects, as they respond to economic uncertainty.”
Commenting on the Company’s financial position, Jack Cronin, Mastech Digital’s Chief Financial Officer stated: “On June 30, 2023, we had
$18.6 million of cash balances on hand, no bank debt, and borrowing availability of $23.9 million under our revolving credit facility. Our Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) measurement improved by five days during the quarter to 56 days on
June 30, 2023. Additionally, during the second quarter, we purchased 62,361 shares of the Company’s common stock at an average price of $9.15 under the share repurchase program that we announced in February 2023”.
