October 15, 2018

Net revenue fell 2.7% at IT staffing provider TSR Inc. (NASD: TSRI) in its fiscal first quarter ended Aug. 31, reflecting a decrease in consultants on billing with customers and a higher discount plan put in place for a major customer.

Net income at the Hauppauge, NY-based company fell 73.0%.

TSR noted in its earnings announcement that its overall average number of consultants on billing with customers decreased to 389 in the quarter from 394 in the year-ago quarter, and the average number of computer programming consultants decreased to 329 from 341.
