View All NewsBG Staffing revenue edges up 0.3%
BG Staffing Inc. (NYSE MKT: BGSF) reported revenue edged up 0.3 percent year over year in the third-quarter to $48.0 million. Net income fell to $365,000 from $841,000 in the same period last year.
Gross margin, however, rose to 20.8 percent in the third quarter from 19.0 in the year-ago quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to a revenue mix shift resulting from increased revenues from higher margin customers and a reduction in revenue of some lower margin customers, according to the company.
The Plano, Texas-based staffing firm began trading on the New York Stock Exchange MKT Oct. 27.
BG Staffing provides staffing solutions to a variety of industries through three divisions: IT; light industrial; and multi-family, which provides front office and maintenance personnel on temporary basis to apartment communities.
