“Due to the many delays in licensing and program go-lives that the industry saw in 2018, we anticipate 2019 to realize some of the massive potential of key emerging markets, such as the state of California, in addition to a plethora of new markets coming online and beginning to shape their own legal programs. Our business strategy is built such that our revenue will continue to grow organically alongside the expansion of the industry, which we look forward to maintaining as 2019 progresses,” said Zachary L. Venegas, Executive Chairman and CEO of Helix TCS, Inc.

For the first quarter of 2019, the Company generated revenues of $3.37 million, and gross profit of $1.45 million, for a gross margin of 43%.  The Company saw continued strength in its industry-leading seed-to-sale software subsidiary, BioTrackTHC, which generated revenues of $2.08 million, an increase of 7% sequentially from the fourth quarter of 2018.

Venegas added: “We are prepared to see the industry begin to realize its true potential within the US and abroad, and we are poised to capitalize on that potential across each of our product and service offerings.”
