2019 financial results, please refer to the Company's Form 10-K
filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(www.sec.gov) on Thursday, March 26, 2020.
Mark Meller, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
of SilverSun, stated, "We are pleased to present these profitable
results for 2019. Clearly, the financial highlight of the
year was the sale of our MAPADOC division for $11.5 million cash in
August. As a result, we positioned ourselves to take
advantage of alternative growth opportunities without the
requirement of outside capital. We continue to invest in our
business application hosting business, which we believe represents
a major growth opportunity as more companies work remotely from
home in this time of Covid-19. Similarly, our IT managed
service provider is positioned to take advantage of this new
work-from-home paradigm. Cybersecurity, business continuity and
disaster recovery are principal concerns for our customers as
cyber-attacks continue to increase in the current environment, and
our MSP is well situated to address this challenge.
“Our operating results for 2019 were negatively
impacted by several one-time costs, including legal fees and
discontinuance of certain product lines. We continue to review and
implement cost-saving measures to reduce our operating expenses in
order that we can improve our operating margins in the upcoming
quarters. While the absence of MAPADOC has temporarily
affected our bottom line, we believe that we will be a stronger
Company in the future as we take advantage of opportunities with
greater growth potential.
“Covid-19 represents a unique and uncertain
challenge for our organization. While at this early stage of
the pandemic our business remains good, it remains to be seen what
the impact of this virus will be on the business landscape in the
coming weeks and months. Similarly, it is unclear how the
U.S. Government bail-out package will impact our customers and our
business. Our balance sheet is strong, and we have the
wherewithal to weather this storm, but the outlook for the overall
economy and our business for 2020 remains uncertain at this
point.”
In conclusion, Meller added, "We have had a
successful year, but we have new challenges to address.
Covid-19 may change our marketplace in ways that are presently
unknown, and we will navigate it as best we can. We are
monitoring our business on a daily basis, and we have prepared
contingency plans which we can enact on short notice as the
business environment changes. Our staff continues to work
diligently to service our customers and seek additional
opportunities while working from home. Our Company is prepared, and
we expect that we will continue to be successful in the coming
months and years.”
