"The Company experienced a transitional year toward higher margin endeavors and product diversification," stated Martin Shen, CEO of FingerMotion. "The rise in gross profit came from our Telecom Products and Services business while we continued to invest in the future with our insuretec partners. Our goal of eradicating debt was successful and we hope that our margin building initiatives will continue to build our balance sheet as we transition into a new era of growth. Our launch of cloud-based services is growing and expected to be a significant driver in the coming year, along with growth in our lifestyle app and other new initiatives."
General and administrative expenses increased by $908,368 or 16% during the year which was primarily attributable to a range of costs tied to meeting operational and administrative requirements domestically and internationally. Marketing costs decreased $290,239 or 67% resulting from a focus on just the telecommunications segment. Research and development expenses decreased by $97,990 or 12% due to savings from data access and usage fees charged by the telecom companies.
