PAR Technology Corporation (NYSE:PAR), a provider of systems and service solutions for the hospitality industry with a market capitalization of $2.7 billion, has filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to recast its financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The company has shown remarkable market performance, with an 84% return over the past year and a strong 63% gain in the last six months.
According to InvestingPro analysis, the stock appears to be trading above its Fair Value, despite maintaining a healthy current ratio of 2.13. The recast, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission today, includes adjustments to reflect the sale of its Government segment as discontinued operations.
The company completed the divestiture of PAR Government Systems Corporation (PGSC) and Rome Research Corporation (RRC) on June 7, 2024, and July 1, 2024, respectively. This strategic move comes as analysts, tracked by InvestingPro, anticipate a sales decline in the current year, though the company maintains strong liquidity with assets exceeding short-term obligations.
These sales led to the classification of the Government segment as discontinued operations in the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The recast financials present the historical results of the Government segment separately from continuing operations for all periods included.
In other recent news, PAR Technology has demonstrated significant growth in its recent earnings report. The company's third quarter 2024 earnings showed total revenue rising to $96.8 million, a 41% increase, with subscription services revenue seeing a substantial 91% year-over-year leap to $59.9 million.
Despite a net loss from continuing operations of $20.7 million, the company's annual recurring revenue (ARR) saw a 93% increase to $248.1 million, primarily due to growth in its Engagement Cloud and Operator Cloud segments.
PAR Technology also reported a positive adjusted EBITDA of $2.4 million, a marked improvement from the loss reported in the same quarter the previous year. The recent acquisition of TASK Group and the introduction of new products such as the Punchh wallet and QR code pay-at-the-table capabilities are anticipated to further enhance growth.

Both firms expressed confidence in PAR Technology's future financial performance and market position.
