Labor SMART, Inc. Reports Record Revenues Of $2.5 Million Dollars For First Quarter 2013

HIRAM, Ga., May 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Labor SMART, Inc. (OTCQB: LTNC) (the "Company"), an emerging provider of on-demand temporary staffing, today announced record first quarter revenues of $2,503,872.

In their first quarter of 2013, the Company reported revenues of $2,503,872 resulting in a 115% increase in sales over prior year first quarter revenues of $1,183,716. The Company showed a gross profit of $351,396 with a net income loss of $649,143, which was in part attributed to charges of $250,616 for stock based compensation and $241,376 in financing related costs totaling $491,992 in non-cash write-offs. The Company also saw additional expenses attributed to staff payroll increases as training continues for its expansion team in 2013.

The Company's first quarter also saw a 33% increase in branch count with their expansion from six to eight branches. However, year to date, the Company has experienced an overall increase in branch count of 133% growing from six to fourteen branches in the first five months of 2013.      

Ryan Schadel, Labor SMART's CEO, stated, "We are extremely pleased with the exponential growth in top-line revenues and branch operations that we have been able to produce so far in 2013. We invested heavily in our people and our infrastructure during the first quarter and these investments are paying off handsomely now and into the future as we prepare for our next leg of expansion." He also stated, "Thus far Labor SMART has opted to expense all of its expansion costs, which also includes any improvements in the properties we lease. This also includes various computer equipment, safety equipment, office furniture, etc. that we purchase versus amortizing these costs. However, as our expansion plans continue to take shape, we may look to capitalize and amortize these costs in the future, based on material amounts they could represent as an aggregate total."
