The letter to shareholders covers key highlights for the nine months that ended September 30, 2024 and gives a first look at the Company's consolidated business since the reverse merger announced in Q2 2024.
"It has been quite a journey getting to this point. ONAR is now on the trajectory we envisioned when we started the reverse merger process," said Claude Zdanow, CEO of ONAR.

Additionally, ONAR will announce a new board charter to usher in an Independent Board of Directors in Q1 of 2025. The new board and its growing investor base demonstrates the support that exists for the company's vision and growth strategy, underscoring the shared commitment to building a premier, technology-enabled marketing powerhouse.
The shareholder letter highlights these notable achievements from Q3:
Increased Revenues: By completing the reverse merger, the Company's consolidated revenue for the nine months ending September 30, 2024, was 57% higher than the same period last year.
Decreased Cost of Revenues: The Cost of Revenues declined by almost $250,000 as compared to the same period last year.
Increase in Cash on Hand: Cash Balance Increased by almost $.5 Million as compared to December 31, 2023.

Revenues are expected to increase organically in the near future due to new contracts being negotiated.
