The Company experienced improved margins in the quarter despite the nuances of managing a more diversified product line. Results are not linear because the telecom sector has sporadic opportunities upon which the Company is able to capitalize, which results in periodic variances in the margins. The Company's active management continually monitors and strives to optimize the divisions to leverage unique opportunities as they present themselves as part of the overall strategic plan.
"As our results show, the Company is making excellent progress toward our goal of profitability," said Martin Shen, CEO of FingerMotion Inc. "It is easy to see our trajectory towards positive earnings results and how our proactive approach to fiscal management of our resources is materializing. One of the highlights of the quarter is the progress we are making towards break even."
General and administrative expenses increased by $358,487 or 28% during the quarter, which was a result of an increase in a range of costs related to Company administration. Research and development expenses dropped to $176,956 during the quarter, which was 11% lower due to savings from data access fees charged by the telecom companies.
