“This quarter represents our first quarter under our new cost and operating structure and to see us deliver both quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year growth under this structure is very exciting,” Mr. Levely said in a statement.
The gift card, loyalty and rewards technology and services provider’s revenue was up four per cent from the same period last year to $385,158, while operating costs fell 65 per cent from a year ago to $199,259.
