Management Commentary
'The start of fiscal 2022 was highly focused on executing upon our significant acquisition pipeline of complementary solar, roofing and battery companies," said David Massey, Chief Executive Officer of Solar Integrated Roofing Corporation. "Our success has transformed our company into a national brand with services now spanning solar, battery backup, EV charging, roofing installation, HVAC work, electrical contracting and back-office technology support.
"The acquisitions drove annual revenues to a record $17.1 million and set us on a course to achieve at least $100 million in the twelve months ended May 31, 2022. Our focus on rapidly growing, high margin acquisitions has significantly grown sales, allowed us to now capture the full lifecycle of our customers, and brought new synergies and efficiencies across the SIRC family of companies. Due to this, we expect to reach profitability in FY2022.
"During the quarter we also focused efforts on our audit and transition to a fully reporting company in anticipation of an uplist to the OTCQB Venture Market. We added several highly respected directors to round out our Board and engaged MZ Group, a leading investor relations firm, to lead our communications program. Due to our rapid pace of acquisition, and the need to audit each of the newly acquired entities, we now plan to refile our Form 10 as soon as possible.
"Fiscal 2021 was a record year for Solar Integrated Roofing and we believe we have positioned the Company for an even more exciting fiscal 2022. Over the course of the year our team has worked tirelessly to integrate our acquisitions and continues to seek new opportunities for growth. The solar, roofing and battery market continues to grow, and our brands are capturing additional market share. With our exceptional portfolio of companies and ongoing organic growth, we look forward to sharing our future achievements with our shareholders,' concluded Massey.
