TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / April 29, 2024 / Sparta Group (TSXV:SAY) (the "Corporation", the "Company", "Sparta Group", "Sparta Capital", "SAY.V" or "Sparta") has announced that it has released its financial results for the year ended September 30, 2023. This is an update to its February 8, 2024, news release ("Default Announcement"), indicating an order from the Alberta Securities Commission ("ASC") for a Management Cease Trade Order (the "MCTO") under National Policy 12-203, Management Cease Trade Orders.
The twelve months ending September 30, 2023, saw growth, increased staffing, and the fostering of a new revenue stream. Revenue for the year ended September 30, 2023, and 2022 respectively, increased by $3,452,556 over the comparative period in 2022, from $5,974,858 to $9,427,414, an increase of 57.78% over 2022. The Company prioritized its environment division, especially its busy upcycling/recycling facility (ERS International), increasing staffing by 30 percent to accommodate renewed, as well as new contracts. Sparta also focused attention on its Innovation division to develop technologies supporting human health, and in Q3 began to further develop its autonomous medicine platform (Doctor-in-a-Box) through Sparta Health. Just prior to fiscal year end, under the innovation division, there was a review and revamping of the original TruckSuite™ product offering. A newer, more comprehensive mobile app that gives truck drivers everything they need while they run their business from the road will soon be available in Canada.
After year end, the Board assembled a new management team to continue building Sparta Group. They were on the job shortly after the unexpected and sudden loss of Mr. John O'Bireck, Company President and co-founder. The Company's new President, Tony Peticca has an impressive background in business leadership and high-tech solutions, including experience in health tech development.
Highlights are as follows:
- Revenue growth of 57.78% compared to fiscal year 2022.
- Carbon Credit Program is officially launched through Sparta's e-waste operation (ERS), creating another revenue stream.

Sparta management report that they are pleased with the strength and stability of the Company's Environment division (ERS), including the unique carbon credit program, and while ERS will continue to be a focus for management, the plan going forward is to also dedicate staff to the upcoming launch of TruckSuite™. Getting the TS app ready for unveiling here in Canada is a key priority. The new management have also assembled a team to move Sparta's autonomous medicine platform (Doc-in-Box) into the next phase of development.
