OLB Group, Announces First Quarter Results and Provides Company Update

The OLB Group, Inc. ("OLBG," “we,” “us,” “our,” or the "Company"), a FinTech company, has announced financial results for first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

We are a FinTech company and a payment facilitator that, through our subsidiaries, focuses on a suite of products in the merchant services and payment facilitator verticals. These services include electronic payment processing, cloud-based multi-channel commerce platform solutions for small to medium sized businesses and crowd funding services. The Company is focused on providing these integrated business solutions to merchants throughout the United States through three wholly-owned subsidiaries, eVance, Inc., Omnisoft.io, Inc., and CrowdPay.us, Inc.

Financial Highlights

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had total revenue of $2,226,404 compared to $2,613,993 of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $387,589 or 14.8%. We earned $2,090,264 in transaction and processing fees, $18,507 in merchant equipment rental and sales and $117,633 in other revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $2,336,479 in transaction and processing fees, $20,262 in merchant equipment sales and $257,252 in other revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had processing and servicing costs of $1,547,274 compared to $1,720,413 of processing and servicing costs for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Processing and servicing costs decreased by $173,139 or 10.1% because of the decrease in the number of transactions processed during the period and the reasons discussed above relating to the COVID-19 pandemic.

General and administrative expenses (“G&A”) for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $626,269 compared to $515,367 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, an increase of $110,902 or 21.5%. In the current period we had increases of our legal expense of approximately $146,000 relating to ongoing litigation matters and the prepayment of the Term Loan. This was offset by a decrease in our audit fees of $116,626.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we incurred $116,736 of interest expense, compared to $317,441 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $200,705 or 146%. The decrease in interest expense is due the conversion of all related party debt and the repayment of the Term Loan.

Our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $1,099,857 compared to $542,207 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. We had an increase in our net loss of $557,650 for the reasons discussed above.

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was ($179,206). The adjustments include $74,011 for stock based compensation, $55,000 for final payment related to DoubleBeam acquisition, $445,000 compensation for prior years and $14,000 in legal fee for the loan payoff.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, Net Loss before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) and adjusted EBITDA, as defined in Regulation G. The Company reports its financial results in compliance with GAAP, but also provides additional non-GAAP measures of its operating results. The Company defines EBITDA as net loss, before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, as defined above, adding back non-cash stock option costs and certain non-recurring items, such as costs incurred with completing acquisitions. These measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Management believes the use of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to enhance the understanding by the Company’s investors of its historical performance through use of a metric that seeks to normalize earnings.
