SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / September 1, 2022 / Helo Corp. (OTC PINK:HLOC) ("Helo" or the "Company"), a leading developer of wearable devices at the forefront of data-driven wellness and a partner in the Digital Health Sharing Economy, announces its second quarter 2022 results.

"The second quarter was a challenge for us," said Sean McVeigh, Chief Executive Officer. "COVID-19 restrictions on international travel and in-person meetings, which are particularly important to our sales process, have and will likely continue to negatively impact our business, especially in geographic regions where we achieved strong sales last year. Consequently, we are evaluating our business model, looking at all aspects of our organization to optimize our spending, as well as adapting our sales processes to recover revenues in our current environment. In addition, we believe we have strong products in the pipeline."

"Our second quarter 2022 revenue was $3.5 million, a decrease of 83% over the prior-year period" added Ryan Wood, Chief Financial Officer. "Gross margin decreased by 5,000 basis points to 5%, due primarily to the lack of revenue and increased costs of materials and production. Selling expenses increased to 45.0% of revenue, reflecting an increase in temporary incentives during the quarter. General and administrative costs increased to 88.6% of revenue, primarily due to the decrease in revenue in the quarter. Overall profitability resulted in a loss of $4.6 million for the quarter, primarily related to our investment in new products as well as future market opportunities. Earnings per share came in at a loss of 5 cents per share, compared to a positive 1 cent per share in the prior-year period. We ended the second quarter with total net assets of $8.1 million and no debt."
