For the nine-month period, revenues fell to $5.111 million, down 12% from $5.805 million in the prior year.

The RemoteMore segment experienced a notable revenue drop of 35.5%, from $605,000 to $390,000, primarily due to decreased demand for software development services.
Despite the revenue decline, PDN reported a reduced loss from continuing operations of $423,912 in Q3 2024, an improvement from a loss of $1.329 million in Q3 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the net loss from continuing operations was $1.815 million, down from $3.861 million in the same period in 2023. This reduction in losses was attributed to a significant decrease in total costs and expenses, which fell to $2.118 million in Q3 2024 from $3.337 million in Q3 2023, and to $6.920 million for the nine months, down from $9.692 million.

Total liabilities also saw a slight reduction, amounting to $3.660 million compared to $3.758 million at year-end 2023. However, stockholders’ equity dropped significantly to $1.642 million from $2.568 million, reflecting an accumulated deficit of $101.653 million.
PDN continues to face liquidity challenges, with cash and cash equivalents decreasing to $133,677 as of September 30, 2024, from $627,641 at the end of 2023. The company’s ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon increasing revenues and raising capital. In terms of strategic developments, PDN increased its ownership stake in RemoteMore USA, Inc. to 72.62% and integrated Expo Experts into its operations, which specializes in recruiting events. The company is also transitioning management of job boards and website operations in-house to enhance efficiency.
