ALT5 Sigma Reports Fiscal Financial Results for Third Quarter 2024

Record quarter for ALT5 with Q3 revenue of $4.94 millionNew customer onboarding strong in Q3 and continuing into Q4Launching additional capabilities for Alt5 Prime and Alt5 Pay in Q4 2024 and Q1 2025LAS VEGAS, NV / ACCESSWIRE / November 12, 2024 / ALT5 Sigma Corporation (NASDAQ:ALTS) ("ALT5" or the "Company"), a fintech, providing next generation blockchain-powered technologies for tokenization, trading, clearing, settlement, payment, and safe-keeping of digital assets, announced financial results for its third fiscal quarter ended September 28, 2024."ALT5 Sigma's fintech segment delivers record performance in Q3, marking the first full quarter since the completion of the acquisition. We are highly encouraged by this quarter's results. To provide some context, in fiscal 2023, prior to the acquisition, ALT5 recorded total revenue of $11.9 million for the year. Achieving nearly $5 million in revenue in a single quarter-while maintaining close to 50% gross margins in our fintech segment-reinforces our confidence in the business's growth trajectory. We continue to see strong demand for our solutions, with significant customer onboarding and deeper engagements with existing clients," said Peter Tassiopoulos, CEO of ALT5 Sigma. "Notably, interest in our offerings has surged following the outcome of the recent U.S. elections. As a result, we are expanding our services and preparing for geographic growth in anticipation of new opportunities both in this quarter and into fiscal 2025."Peter continued "Additionally, I'm pleased to report that we are making significant progress in the organizational documentation and separation of our biotech business, Alyea Therapeutics. As previously outlined, the planned separation is slated for completion in the first half of 2025, as previously outlined. In the near term, the company intends to finance Alyea's operations separately from ALT5 Sigma. This strategy aligns with the board's decision to separate the two segments, enabling biotech investors to focus on the biotech business, reducing dilution for our shareholders, and leveraging fintech's future free cash flow to fuel continued revenue expansion of the fintech business. We will provide further updates as developments warrant."Recent financial and other highlights for the Company's three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, and subsequent eventsIn July, the Company changed its name from JanOne Inc. to ALT5 Sigma Corporation, and its Nasdaq ticker symbol was updated to ALTS.On August 26, 2024, the Company appointed Peter Tassiopoulos as CEO.In October, the Board approved the separation of the Company's Fintech and Biotech businesses into two independent entities.In November, the Company appointed Mr. Ron Pitters to the Board.
