Commenting on the results, Mark Meller, Chairman and CEO of SilverSun, stated, “This was an excellent quarter for SilverSun. We reported revenue of $9,586,900, the highest revenue we–ve ever generated in a single quarter. Our quarterly pre-tax income of $541,305 was up 10.6% from Q3 2016. While software sales decreased by 5.8% during the quarter, our gross profit increased 7.6%, exemplifying the impact Software-as-a-Service pricing has on our income statement, and in particular, on our top line revenue.
“The launch of the cloud version of our EDI solution, MAPADOC, had an excellent launch in August, with a flurry of initial sales and a rapidly filling pipeline of new opportunities. Our managed service provider continues to grow, with monthly recurring revenue now exceeding $355,000 per month. All in all, we are very pleased with the results for the quarter.”
Meller concluded, “We anticipate a strong finish to 2017. Sales activity is strong, and we have a large backlog of existing projects for our consultants that exceeds 18,000 hours. Our pipeline for new project opportunities is deep, and we expect that backlog to increase in the coming months, independent of new projects generated from new sales. All in all, we are extremely optimistic about our prospects for the balance of 2017, and look forward to continuing to deliver positive results for the benefit of all our stakeholders in the coming months and years ahead.”
