FDCTech revenue jumps 1,980% YTD on the back of new wealth management business
FDCTech has reported a 1,980% revenue increase in the nine months ending September 30, 2022 compared to the previous period, with figures rising to $4,597,097 from $221,003.
The spectacular revenue growth follows the successful integration of the wealth management business by the fintech-driven company specializing in buying and integrating small to mid-size legacy financial services companies.
As a result, the net loss as a percentage of revenue decreased from 442.50% to 21.81% for the same periods. In absolute figures, net loss remained about the same: $1,002,849 (nine months ending September 2022) and $977,933 (nine months ending September 2021).
FDCTech acquired 80% of CIM Securities
On July 19, 2022, FDCTech signed a non-binding letter of intent to acquire eighty percent (80%) equity interest in CIM Securities, LLC (“CIM Securities”), a FINRA and SIPC member firm.
On September 30, 2022, the firm paid a $20,000 non-refundable deposit and transferred $180,000 to the escrow account to complete the transaction.
The FINRA Rule 1017 requires FDCTech to file continuing membership applications (CMAs) as it plans to apply for changes in ownership, control, and business operations. The firm plans to file the CMA form by the end of fiscal 2022.
The cash on hand was $246,064 as of September 30, 2022, compared to $93,546 on December 31, 2021, with total stockholders’ equity at $1,283,751 compared to $1,625,448 on December 31, 2021.
