(NASDAQ: PIXY) — which earlier this month announced the sales of its PEO business — reported revenue rose 50.8% in its fiscal first quarter ended Nov. 30, according to a filing on Tuesday with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. The Irvine, California-based firm reported gross margin narrowed and net loss edged higher.
ShiftPixy’s PEO operations represented 60% of its business, and the sale was announced Jan. 9 after the close of the first quarter. The company said it plans to focus on its staffing/technology model serving the quick-service restaurant and staffing industries. The company had also, in December, conducted a one-for-40 reverse stock split. In Tuesday’s SEC filing, ShiftPixy reported that first-quarter revenue rose because of an increased number of worksite employees.
