−Removed: ago since 2019.

−Removed: The EOR segment revenue quarterly increase from these four clients
−Removed: was a combined $1,329.
−Removed: revenue at $822 increased over its performance a year ago by $112 or 15.8%, when the period ended September 30, 2023, resulted in $710.
−Removed: One new client was the catalyst, adding $156 for the quarter.
−Removed: Otherwise, if one declining account is omitted, 13 clients were up $20
−Removed: over the same period a year ago.
−Removed: Video Production and Direct Hire segments were down comparatively to the third quarter of 2023 as revenue in the third quarter
−Removed: 2024 was $87 and $28, respectively, to $100 and $64 in revenue, respectively, in 2023.
−Removed: Thus, Video Production was down 13.7% and Direct
−Removed: at $17,566 grew $1,574 for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2024, versus the same period in 2023 with a total of $15,992.
−Removed: increase was driven by our top four revenue producers amassing $12,172 in the nine months ending September 30, 2024, which represents 69.3%
−Removed: of our total revenue and a $3,542 increase over their revenue contributions in the same nine-month period ending September 30, 2023.
−Removed: The aforementioned four clients have each surpassed the million-dollar mark year to date.
−Removed: drove the nine-month growth with $15,108 in revenue which was $1,868, or 14.1% more than this business garnered in the same period 2023 when it produced $13,240 in revenue.
−Removed: Otherwise, in the nine-month period ending September 30, 2024, Staffing at $2,202 was off 2023’s
−Removed: third quarter pace by $136, or 5.8%, which was about 5.7% better than the gap in the second quarter 2024.

+Added: from our EOR segment declined by $817 or 17.9% compared to $4,572 in the first quarter of 2024.
+Added: This decline was primarily
+Added: attributable to a $366 reduction in revenue from one of our top three clients in 2024 largely due to the absence of election-related activity in this non-election year.
+Added: This client-specific reduction accounted for approximately 67% of the total revenue decline and 45% of the decline
+Added: within the EOR segment.
+Added: Offsetting this, our other top four revenue-generating clients contributed a combined $280 in incremental revenue
+Added: compared to the same period last year.
+Added: revenue increased to $932 a growth of $265 or 39.7%, from $667 in the prior-year period.

of Revenue / Gross Profit
−Removed: the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, gross profit at $834 saw a $62 or 8.0% improvement comparatively to the three-month
−Removed: period ended September 30, 2023, when gross profit landed on $772.
−Removed: Gross margins, however, at 13.4% were not as strong as they were a
−Removed: year ago at 14.5%.
−Removed: Several factors contributed to the margin drop, including the higher margin Direct Hire revenue being down by $36,
−Removed: our EOR business increasing by 1.3% to 85.0% of revenue at 12.1% margins vs.
−Removed: 12.5% which was caused by a shift in our labor from W2 to
−Removed: lower margin 1099.
−Removed: shift of revenue concentration by 1.3% to EOR at 12.1% margins alone resulted in a loss of gross profit by approximately $44 or seventy
−Removed: basis points (.7).
−Removed: terms of gross profit, EOR and Staffing saw increases of $83 and $13 in the third quarter of 2024 compared to 2023, while Video Production
−Removed: and Direct Hire were off the mark by $1 and $33, respectively.
−Removed: the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, gross profit at $2,346 improved by $123 or 5.5% over the $2,223 earned comparatively
−Removed: to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023.
−Removed: margins for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, were 13.4%, versus 13.9% where margins stood a year ago at the end of September
−Removed: The paradigm causing the deficiency is the same as the third quarter, as the nine-month revenue mix weighed heavier to EOR as the
−Removed: business unit grew in gross profit by $201 while the other three declined by a combined gross margin of $125.
−Removed: This phenomenon alone caused
−Removed: margins to compress by 42 basis points which explains 79% of the 53-basis point spread (13.4 to 13.95%).
−Removed: margins declined 20 basis points (12.3% to 12.1%) in the nine months ending September 30, 2024 when compared to the same period in
−Removed: 2023, as a heavier use of 1099 labor of almost $1,500 at a 2.5% lower margin more than offset a W2 margin increase by 30 basis
−Removed: When extending EOR contracts we continue to incorporate reasonable pricing markup increases which slowly should improve
−Removed: Additionally, our customer mix continues to be more weighted to clients that have favorable pricing terms than those that
−Removed: previously dominated sales.
−Removed: This is why our EOR business is now seeing 12.1% margins as opposed to the 9.8% it did, four years
+Added: For the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, gross profit totaled $641,
+Added: representing a decline of $68 or 9.6%, compared to $709 in the prior-year period.
+Added: Despite the year-over-year decrease in gross profit,
+Added: gross margins improved by 10 basis points to 13.5%, up from 13.4% in the first quarter of 2024.
+Added: This marks the third increase in gross
+Added: margin during the first quarter over the past four years.
+Added: shift in revenue mix positively influenced overall margins.
+Added: Staffing revenue increased from 12.6% to 19.6% of total revenue, with a gross
+Added: margin of 17.9%, contributing approximately 30 basis points of margin improvement.
+Added: Additionally, Video Production delivered gains in
+Added: both gross profit and margin, adding another 10 basis points.
+Added: These improvements offset a combined 30 basis point negative impact from
+Added: Direct Hire and EOR services.
+Added: Comparatively year over year, Staffing gross margin fell to 17.9% from 18.4% in 2024, mostly because IT
+Added: staffing revenue of 37 lifted margins by thirty basis points.
+Added: In the first quarter 2025, all our staffing revenue were from media roles.
+Added: gross margin was 12.0%, just 10 basis points below the prior-year level of 12.2%.
+Added: Given the trend that began in Q2 2024—where EOR
+Added: margins declined modestly due to a heavier reliance on Maslow 1099 resources over W-2 employees, this limited margin compression in Q1
+Added: 2025 was a positive indicator of stabilization.
+Added: Hire’s 20 basis point negative impact on margin was attributable to a decline in revenue compared to the prior year quarter.
+Added: Direct Hire typically generates gross margins of approximately 90%, even modest revenue shifts have a disproportionate effect on consolidated
+Added: margin performance.
and Administrative (“G&A”)
−Removed: and administrative expenses for the three months ending September 30, 2024 were $958 compared to $998 in the same period in 2023,
−Removed: representing a $40 or 4.0% favorable result.
−Removed: The decrease in spending when compared to 2023’s second quarter was rooted in $71

−Removed: health insurance benefits and higher usage of our subsidy resulted in a $47 increase in the nine months ending September 2024 compared
−Removed: Non-salary SG&A costs $173 or 18.5% favorable as approximately $97 of $103 in Legal cost savings were reclassed or booked
−Removed: in 2024 to Other (See last paragraph of this section below for further details).
−Removed: cost savings were realized in Contract Services by $77, Staff Events which were scaled back by $39, Payroll fees by $14, and Travel
−Removed: and Meals and Entertainment by $9.
−Removed: Unfavorable changes in SG&A expenses by category were Recruiting Software costs $34 (these
−Removed: are allocated to COR if associated with Staffing or Direct Hire fulfillment), Business Insurance at $15, Communications at $8, and
−Removed: Business License and Taxes at $10 which now consist of state minimum tax and franchise fees to states that are not deemed to be
−Removed: state income taxes.
−Removed: Prior to 2024, we were booking these taxes and fees to state income taxes.
−Removed: December 29, 2023, we learned the Maryland Circuit court certified the arbitration award as a judgement.
−Removed: The costs related to the award
−Removed: are now centered on collection and recovery.
−Removed: Since we began separating non-core operational expenses in 2023 and recording them to Other
−Removed: Expense, MMG decided to begin recording all related Receiver expenses from SG&A (operational) legal to Other Expense in the second
−Removed: This practice continues, which lowers costs associated with non-operational legal obligations.
−Removed: the three-month period ending September 30, 2024, the Company incurred $27 in interest charges for financing, factoring, and paying an
−Removed: advance rate (BIP) against its invoices compared with $12 in the same period a year ago.
−Removed: the nine-month period ending September 30, 2024, the Company incurred $62 in interest charges for financing, factoring, and paying an
−Removed: advance rate (BIP) against its invoices compared with $77 in the same period a year ago.
+Added: and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025, totaled $1,023, compared to $947 in the first quarter of 2024,
+Added: representing an unfavorable variance of $76 or 8.0%.
+Added: The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by higher loaded salaries, which
+Added: rose by $37 or 4.9%, led by $20 increase in accrued leave.
+Added: Wages increased by $15.
+Added: Overall loaded salaries represented 48.6% of the overall
+Added: $76 higher SG&A costs.
+Added: costs rose by $39 (51.4%), largely due to a $26 increase in ADP payroll processing fees.
+Added: This increase was anticipated, as the first
+Added: quarter of 2024 benefited from a one-time holiday incentive tied to our 2023 ADP servicing agreement.
+Added: Other notable increases by account
+Added: were non recruiting software at $10, and business taxes and licenses at $10 which consist of state minimum tax and franchise fees for
+Added: states that are not deemed to be state income taxes.
+Added: A year ago, in the first quarter of 2024, we were booking these taxes and fees to state
+Added: income taxes.
+Added: cost savings were realized in Legal by $11, as Receivership fees a year ago resided here, and recruiting software which a greater portion,
+Added: was allocated to COR for staffing and Direct Hire searches.
+Added: the three-month period ending March 31, 2025, the Company incurred $52 in interest charges for financing, factoring, and paying an advance
+Added: rate (BIP) against its invoices compared with $16 in the same period a year ago.
Income (Expense)
−Removed: non-operational costs, in the third quarter totaled $68 including $32 in Receiver and arbitration award related legal costs.
−Removed: This represented
−Removed: $55 more than the $13 we incurred in the third quarter of 2023.
−Removed: In the three-month period ending September 30, 2024, we incurred $30
−Removed: more in legal costs related to the SWC matter (see Note 6), and another $25 for a settlement with HCRN.
−Removed: We began booking these non-operational
−Removed: fees to Other Income (Expense) last year in the second quarter.
−Removed: the nine months ended September 30, 2024, Other Expense was $297, which was $164 greater than a year ago when Other Expenses tallied
−Removed: Because approximately $97 of the $297 were Receiver related costs, the normalized Other Expense increase year to date in 2024 versus
−Removed: 2023 would have been $68.
+Added: December 29, 2023, the Maryland Circuit Court certified the Company’s arbitration award as a judgment.
+Added: Given that the associated
+Added: legal costs relate primarily to collection and recovery efforts, the Company began reclassifying these non-core legal expenses to Other
+Added: Expense starting in the second quarter of 2024.
+Added: This practice has continued, effectively isolating non-operational legal obligations
+Added: from operating expenses.
+Added: Non-operational
+Added: income and expenses totaled a net expense of $26 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, reflecting a $67 or 72.0%, decrease compared
+Added: to $93 in the same period in 2024.
+Added: The year-over-year decline was primarily due to a narrower scope of legal activity in the current
+Added: In the first quarter of 2025, legal expenses were limited to matters involving the court-appointed receiver, whereas the prior-year
+Added: period included additional legal costs related to restructuring activities and obligations associated with the non-award Vivos Group
+Added: The $26 net expense in the first quarter of 2025 also includes $1 in credit card rebate income.
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
−Removed: working capital requirements are driven predominantly by EOR field talent payments, G&A salaries, public company costs, interest
−Removed: associated with financing, legal fees associated with the Vivos and related SWC matter and client accounts receivable receipts.
−Removed: receipts from client payments are on average 60 days behind payments to field talent, working capital requirements can be periodically
−Removed: To accelerate cash and ensure sufficient liquidity, we have both a Buyer Initiated Payment (“BIP”) agreement
−Removed: with American Express (“Amex”) and a Factoring Facility with Gulf Coast Bank (“Gulf”).
−Removed: BIP agreement with Amex enables MMG to be advanced 100% of purchase order approved invoices minus a flat interest rate percentage that
−Removed: is based on that day’s submitted invoice volume.
−Removed: The greater the volume the lower the interest rate charged.
−Removed: The implementation
−Removed: of this program in the second quarter of 2023 profoundly impacted our ability to accelerate cash conversion and lower DSO as well as
−Removed: our borrowing costs.
−Removed: Given our use of BIP is with 90-day terms clients, our approximate APR is 6.1% compared to Factoring average approximate
−Removed: APR rate of 10.6% based on the current prime rate of 8%.
−Removed: on the other hand, advances 93% of our eligible receivables at an advance rate of 15 basis points, an interest rate of prime plus
−Removed: 2%., and our prime floor rate at 4%.
−Removed: Our Days Outstanding (DSO) remained strong for the trailing twelve months ending September 30, 2024,
−Removed: at 49 compared to a 53 DSO for the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2023.
−Removed: programs, plus the portion of our business in which the client has elected or is required to pay in advance of payroll, approximately
−Removed: $198 every two weeks, counteract the approximate 32% of our revenue from clients that are on 90-day terms, some of which were demanded
−Removed: by larger clients, and have delays in providing receipt of purchase orders.
−Removed: looking at A/R aging in relation to payments to due date, as of September 30, 2024, 98.7% was < 31 days aged, 93.3% a year ago, respectively.
−Removed: We had only one hundred and eighty dollars in bad debt over the past five years.
−Removed: primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations via accounts receivable and borrowings under our Factoring Facility
−Removed: with Gulf enabling access to the 7% unfactored portion.
−Removed: Because certain large clients have changed their payment practices
−Removed: announcing 60- and 90-day terms amounting to a unilateral extension to contractual terms by 30-60 days, we would otherwise be
−Removed: adversely impacted but not since we adopted Amex’s BIP program which coupled with an increase in our client biweekly
−Removed: prepayments (drawdowns) to $198 from $159, over the past 12 months, have been catalysts to our cash conversion success measured by
−Removed: our DSO improving from 66 at the start of 2023 to 49 at the end of June and carried over to September 2024.
−Removed: primary uses of cash are for payments to field talent, corporate and staff employees, related payroll liabilities, operating expenses,
−Removed: public company costs, including but not limited to, general and professional liability and directors and officer’s liability insurance
−Removed: auditor and accounting fees;
−Removed: stock transfer services;
−Removed: and board compensation, followed by cash factoring
−Removed: and other borrowing interest;
−Removed: and debt payments.
−Removed: we are an EOR with the majority of contracted talent paid as W-2 employees who are paid known amounts, but on inconsistent schedules,
−Removed: our cash inflows do not typically align with these required payments, resulting in temporary cash challenges, which is why we employ
−Removed: Debtors as of September 30, 2024, had notes receivable totaling $5,827, including default on a $3,000 promissory note and on a $750 tax
−Removed: obligation in December 2019.
−Removed: was also anticipated that following the Merger, the Company would both access the capital markets by selling additional shares of Company
−Removed: Common Stock and use shares of Company Common Stock as currency to acquire other business revenues.
−Removed: However, all 300 million authorized
−Removed: shares of Company Common Stock were issued in connection with the Merger.
−Removed: No shares are expected to become available to the Company until
−Removed: the legal dispute with the Vivos Debtors and Vivos Group is resolved.
−Removed: At that point, the Company can decide whether to amend the Company’s
−Removed: Certificate of Formation to increase the number of authorized shares of Company Common Stock or approve a reverse split of the outstanding
−Removed: shares of Company Common Stock to provide additional shares for these purposes.
−Removed: No assurance can be given as to when this might take
−Removed: April 22, 2024, MMG received a refund of $288 from the IRS.
−Removed: The proceeds were accrued in the first quarter since the credits were for
−Removed: past tax events.
−Removed: of September 30, 2024, our working capital was $7,536 compared to $7,592 on June 30, 2024, $7,783 at the end of March 2024, to $7,913
−Removed: at end of December 2023 and compared $8,040 at the end of September 2023.
−Removed: Our adjusted working capital, as of September 30, 2024, excluding
−Removed: the notes receivable related to the Vivos Debtors, totals $1,709, compared to 1,826 compared at the end of June 2024, compared to 2,212
−Removed: at the end of the first quarter, to $2,412 at the end of 2023, and finally compared to 2,623 at the end of September 2023.
+Added: working capital requirements are driven primarily by payroll for Employer of Record (EOR) field talent, general and administrative (G&A)
+Added: salaries, public company expenses, interest on financing arrangements, legal fees related to the enforcement of arbitration awards against
+Added: the Vivos Group, and the timing of collections on client accounts receivable.
+Added: Because client payments, on average, lag field talent payroll
+Added: by approximately 49 days, working capital demands can fluctuate and occasionally present short-term challenges.
+Added: principal sources of liquidity include cash generated from operations via accounts receivable collections, borrowings under our Factoring
+Added: Facility with Gulf, and, more recently, three separate receivables purchase arrangements.
+Added: These arrangements function similarly to factoring
+Added: but operate through supplier payment programs facilitated by client-affiliated financial institutions.
+Added: of our larger clients have recently adopted extended payment terms, 60 to 90 days.
+Added: amounting to unilateral term extensions of 30 to 60
+Added: To mitigate the impact of these changes, we adopted Buyer-Initiated Payment (BIP) and Receivable Purchase Programs with American
+Added: Express, MUFG, and JP Morgan.
+Added: Combined with our factoring facility and biweekly prepayments (averaging approximately $56 every two weeks),
+Added: these programs have materially improved our cash conversion cycle.
+Added: Our Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) improved from 66 days at the beginning
+Added: of 2023 to 49 days by March 2024 and has averaged 50 days since.
+Added: For the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2025, our DSO remained
+Added: strong at 49.5 compared to 49.2 in the prior-year period.
+Added: BIP and Receivable Purchase Programs allow MMG to receive payment for 100% of client-approved invoices, net of a flat interest rate.
+Added: For Amex and MUFG programs, rates vary based on daily invoice volume, with higher volume reducing the effective rate.
+Added: The JP Morgan agreement,
+Added: executed on April 23, 2025, purchases one of our largest client’s invoices within 15 days of approval, using the Secured Overnight
+Added: Financing Rate (SOFR) plus an 80-basis point program fee.
+Added: Based on current rates, this results in an annualized cost of approximately
+Added: 5.27%, significantly lower than our average factoring APR of 10.6%, which is based on a prime rate of 8%.
+Added: factoring facility with Gulf advances 93% of eligible receivables, subject to a 15-basis point advance fee and an interest rate of prime
+Added: plus 2%, with a floor prime rate of 4%.
+Added: These financing arrangements, combined with the portion of client business that pays in advance
+Added: of payroll (~$56 every two weeks), help offset the impact of approximately 32% of our revenue coming from clients on 90-day terms, some
+Added: of which involve delayed issuance of purchase orders.
+Added: of March 31, 2025, 96.3% of accounts receivable were current (aged <31 days), compared to 96.5% a year earlier.
+Added: Our long-term credit
+Added: performance remains strong, with total bad debt over the past five years amounting to just one hundred and eighty dollars.
+Added: primary uses of cash include payments to field talent, corporate and staff employee payroll and related liabilities, operating expenses,
+Added: public company costs (including D&O and general liability insurance premiums, SEC filing and audit fees, legal and professional services,
+Added: stock transfer agent costs, and board compensation), as well as factoring and borrowing-related interest, taxes, and debt service.
+Added: to the nature of our EOR business, where most contracted talent are W-2 employees paid known amounts on varying schedules, cash inflows
+Added: from clients often do not align with required payroll disbursements.
+Added: This mismatch necessitates our use of factoring and receivables
+Added: financing to ensure timely fulfillment of payroll and other obligations.
+Added: of March 31, 2025, the Vivos Debtors owed the Company $5,973 in notes receivable, which includes a $3,000 defaulted promissory note and
+Added: a $750 unpaid tax obligation dating back to December 2019.
+Added: the Maslow–Reliability merger, the Company anticipated accessing capital markets and using its common stock as acquisition currency.
+Added: However, all 300 million authorized shares of common stock were issued in connection with the merger.
+Added: No additional shares are expected
+Added: to become available until the legal dispute with the Vivos Debtors and the broader Vivos Group is resolved.
+Added: Once resolved, the Company
+Added: may pursue either an increase in authorized shares or a reverse stock split to create capacity for future capital raises or acquisitions.
+Added: is no assurance as to the timing of such actions.
+Added: of March 31, 2025, our working capital totaled $6,966, compared to $7,296 as of December 31, 2024.
+Added: Adjusting for the notes receivable
+Added: related to the Vivos Debtors, our working capital stood at $993, compared to $1,449 as of December 31, 2024.
