DALLAS, August 9, 2021--KonaTel, Inc. (OTCQB: KTEL) (www.konatel.com), a voice/data communications holding company, today announced financial results for second quarter and six-month period ended June 30, 2021.

Second Quarter Financial Summary and Recent Business Highlights

·Revenues of $2.9 million, up 29% compared to the second quarter last year.
·Gross profit of $1.4 million, up 64% compared to the second quarter last year.
·Operating income of $381,000 compared to an operating loss of $(92,000) in the second quarter last year.
·Net income of $341,000 or $0.01 per share, compared to $142,000, inclusive of non-recurring, other income of $242,000, or $0.00 per share, in the second quarter last year.
·Approved as a provider of cellular services by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) under the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) LifeLine program.
·Approved to participate in the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) new Emergency Broadband Benefit Program (EBB) (www.fcc.gov/broadbandbenefit) established by Congress to provide temporary broadband data service to low-income American households impacted by COVID.

“During the second quarter, we drove significant revenue growth of nearly 30% capturing a meaningful share of the increasing demand for telecommunications and data services and delivered positive net income of more than $340,000,” stated KonaTel Chairman and CEO Sean McEwen. “Increasingly, we are emphasizing the importance of a sales-oriented approach towards the market with continued investment in our sales organization including the recent launch of our expanded agent platform to support our indirect channel.”

McEwen continued, “At the same time, recent approvals for participation in federal and state subsidized cellular programs expands our opportunities and provides a natural revenue hedge against market volatility that can result from changing economic conditions. Most recently, we were unanimously approved as a provider of cellular services by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) under the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) LifeLine program. The CPUC approval process is rigorous, and approval has been granted to only a select number of providers with the most recent approval prior to KonaTel dating back to 2017. We are eager to serve eligible California families with essential voice and data services.”
