Pharma-Bio Serv Announces Results for the Year Ended October 31, 2019

DORADO, PUERTO RICO / ACCESSWIRE / January 29, 2020 / Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc. (“Pharma-Bio Serv” or the “Company”) (OTCQB:PBSV), a compliance, project management and technology transfer support consulting firm that provides services to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, chemical, medical device, cosmetic, food and allied products industries, today announced revenues from continuing operations for the year ended October 31, 2019 were $19.5 million, an increase of $1.7 million, or 9.6%, when compared to last year.

Net income from continued operations for the year ended October 31, 2019 was approximately $2.1 million, an improvement of $3.3 million when compared to last year. This improvement includes last year’s non-recurring 2018 US Tax Reform $2.7 million Transition Tax charge recorded in February 2018.

In September 2018, we sold the assets of our laboratory segment. After considering last fiscal year’s $2.5 million net income from discontinued operations and related gain on segment disposal and last year’s non-recurring 2018 US Tax Reform Transition Tax, our net income for the year ended October 31, 2019 of approximately $2.1 million had an improvement in earnings of approximately $0.8 million over last year’s earnings.

“We are satisfied with the results we obtained by focusing our operations on our consulting portfolio of services. We will continue pursuing opportunities for growth which will enhance our Company’s value. Finally, we were delighted to provide a dividend of approximately $1.7 million to our loyal shareholders in November 2019,” said Victor Sanchez, CEO of Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc.
