Outlook

As the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) continues its focus on diversifying its economy away from Oil & Gas by investing in digital transformation, AI, infrastructure, tourism, entertainment, and being a hub for financial activities in the region as a part of its Vision 2030 economic development plan, we expect the strong demand for our services to continue as these sectors rapidly build out technical infrastructure and software. KSA continues to be the primary contributor to our revenue growth with $10,603,543 YTD; an increase of 129% over the same period last year. There is an increasing demand for our products and services with new existing customers in the region. We have been in the region for over 17 years and customers recognize our quality of work and track record.

 

Since 2021, as well as supporting NTG Egypt’s legacy customers, management has transformed NTG Egypt into a supplier of offshore services for international customers through our Egypt Offshore Centre. This strategy allows us to pay expenses in the devaluing Egyptian Pound, while collecting revenue in stronger currencies such as the Saudi Riyal, which is pegged to the US Dollar.

 

Since embracing our new offshore model, we have been able to connect more clients with talented candidates faster, accelerating their digital transformation journeys, all the while at a lower cost to them and consistent margins for us. This is a large driver behind our growth profitability in the last three years.

 

We have a dedicated team of sales personnel that are targeting new customers in this currently booming KSA economy. We are targeting small and medium enterprises (SME) across multiple verticals that now include the medical sectors and the food industry, in addition to the telecom and financial sectors. We anticipate the sales of NTGapps to increase significantly in 2024. For more information, visitwww.ntgapps.com.

 

As we continue through 2024, we continue to strive to deliver on NTG’s four-part commitment to:

 
  1. Customersby providing flexible, quality services at a competitive price. 

    • We accelerate and simplify the digital transformation journey for our clients by providing the right solution delivered by passionate professionals both on their sites and offshore. 

  2. Peopleby helping our staff grow and develop personally and professionally. 

    • We empower our staff to build and deliver challenging projects while providing opportunities for training and career advancement both internally and outside NTG. 

  3. Shareholdersby continuing our growth trajectory and profitability. 

    • With purchase orders on-hand and contracts we expect to close, we project our 2024 revenue to be approximately $50 Million. 

    • With three years of consistent profitability under our belt, we are actively identifying opportunities to make sure as much of this new revenue as possible flows to the bottom line, with a targeted 2024 profit margin of 10%. 

  4. Communityby passing our experience down to the next generation. 

    • We provide youth education and employment opportunities tailored to the modern job market through the NTG Academies, School, and on-the-job training. 

 

We look forward to continuing our growth through 2024 and beyond,using our growing funds to create value for our shareholders by investing in growth initiatives and also continuing to pay down our longer-standing debts.
