Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
As previously disclosed, Recruiter.com Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is currently pursuing two related collections matters against BKR Strategy Group. Since 2013, BKR Strategy Group has provided talent acquisition strategy and services to top companies. Starting in the third quarter of 2021, BKR Strategy Group subcontracted the Company to perform on-demand recruiter services on behalf of BKR Strategy Group’s clients. Although payments for services rendered were initially received in a timely fashion, BKR Strategy Group’s balance grew throughout the third and fourth quarters of 2021. This led to BKR Strategy Group executing a promissory note with a payment schedule for $500,000 on November 30, 2021 (the “Promissory Note”) with a personal guarantee from its business principal as part of the Promissory Note. After failing to meet the payment schedule in the Promissory Note and after repeated attempts to collect the balance due, the Company filed two lawsuits against BKR Strategy Group on February 18, 2022, the first, to collect on unpaid invoices and the second, to enforce the Promissory Note, for a total sum of $1,400,000. On March 24, 2022, BKR Strategy Group made a counterclaim against us for $500,000 on the grounds of alleged overbilling. Management denies the basis for the counterclaim and expects to vigorously defend itself from this counterclaim.
On June 21, 2022, the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment in lieu of a complaint in the amount of $500,000, plus interest at 12% since November 22, 2021, through the entry of judgement in the lawsuit related to the enforcement on the Promissory Note. Proceedings in the other lawsuit remain ongoing.
