Crawford added, “Our robust interconnected operating platform we have built, and dedicated integration team drives our ability to transform lower margin business units we acquire into higher-margin businesses that more closely align with our overall margin profile. It is consistent and steady integration efforts that will allow us to maintain over 20% margins for calendar 2022 amid an aggressive acquisition pace.“

Chief Financial Officer Hardik Mehta said, “We are extremely proud of breaching the $100 million mark in annual revenue for the fiscal year 2021, whilst maintaining an above 20% Adjusted EBITDA margin, a major milestone. Our continued progress in strategically building scale utilizing the infrastructure we have in place is producing consistent financial results, inclusive of over 77% of our revenue being classified as recurring.”

Mehta added, “Driven through higher volumes, stronger cash collections and continuing to support the business with lower operating costs, we have begun to see what more meaningful scale will look like for our financial model. Moreover, organic growth has been a top priority for the team, and the 10% organic growth achieved year-over-year signifies the ongoing execution company-wide.”
