Key financial facts and forecast

The company's sales have steadily grown over the last 10 years and even more so in the last 5 years with compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25% (2016 sales of $740K vs 2020 sales of $922K). In the same period, net income has shown a CAGR of 30%.

The 5-year average gross and net profits margins are very attractive at 22% and 15%, respectively. The independent contractor model keeps the company's operating expenses low and allows more flexibility with caregivers schedules.

With no plans for additional marketing, sales growth is forecast to remain steady at around 3~5% annually over the next 5 years and begin to increase closer to 10% as the average "baby boomer" ages. According to HHS, every day 10,000 "boomers" turn 65 and the RGV area currently exceeds the national average with 1 in 5 individuals over age 60.

As of March 31, 2021, the company carries no debt and a current ratio of 22 (current assets / current liabilities).

The company has steadily grown since it's opening with little to no marketing and essentially no web presence. We currently serve clients in the Harlingen area and lower Rio Grande Valley, but have room to expand to nearby areas such as Raymondville and the upper Rio Grande Valley.
