Total revenues were approximately $2.1 million for the second quarter, as compared to the approximately $1.9 million in total revenues reported for the same period in 2019.

Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were approximately $4.0 million, as compared to the $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This was an increase of approximately $401,000 or 11% when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. Healthcare related revenues grew 17% when comparing the second quarter of 2020 to 2019, and grew 16% when comparing the six months ended June 30th.

We reported a net income for the quarter of approximately $28,000, or 4% of total revenues. This compares to net loss of approximately $69,000, or 3% of total revenues reported for the second quarter of 2020. The company had a net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 of approximately $61,000, or 0% of total revenues, as compared to the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2019 of approximately $413,000, or 11% of total revenues.

We finished the second quarter with approximately $2.0 million in cash and cash equivalents, as compared to the approximately $730,000 at the end of 2019. We received proceeds from a loan of approximately $1.0 million, while cash from operations was approximately $1.0 million, an increase of approximately $277,000 or 38%.
