Helbiz Chief Executive Officer Salvatore Palella said, “We believe that we are driving toward profitability on many fronts by enhancing our current service offerings, optimizing our cost structure, and integrating new businesses. Even with softer third quarter numbers, our performance year-to-date is solid, and we are confident we can exit the year with momentum. Third quarter top line was impacted by challenging economic conditions and the strong dollar, which devalued our substantial Euro revenue. I want to thank our team for their relentless effort, commitment to create more value, and focus on operating profitability as evidenced by the strong reduction of the adjusted net loss in third quarter numbers.” (Graphic: Business Wire)
