cbdMD Demonstrates Strong Year-over-Year Performance, Significantly Reducing Net Loss by $30 Million

By: Newsfile

Charlotte, North Carolina--(Newsfile Corp. - August 10, 2023) - cbdMD, Inc. (NYSE American: YCBD) (NYSE American: YCBDpA), one of the nation's leading and most highly trusted and recognized CBD companies, and operator the leading CBD brands – including its flagship brand cbdMD, and its animal health brand Paw CBD, today announced our third quarter of fiscal 2023 results.

For the third quarter of fiscal 2023 Net Loss improved to $1.7 million on sales of $6.1 million as compared to a $31.6 million Net Loss on sales of $8.6 million in the prior year comparative quarter. Excluding the $30.7 million of goodwill and intangible impairment, loss from operations improved from $2.3 million loss to a $1.8 million loss. Year over year saw significant improvements in SG&A costs and more disciplined organization.

"We have had a dynamic and eventful quarter, marked by significant capital markets activity, a strategic re-platforming of our website, and dedicated efforts in new product innovation. I am tremendously proud of our team's unwavering focus, which allowed us to sustain our revenue base, achieve progress in our adjusted EBITDA, and establish a foundation for future enhancements. We remain highly optimistic about some of the exciting opportunities in our pipeline.

Our unwavering commitment to profitability is resolute, with a keen eye on achieving break-even EBITDA in the near-term. As cbdMD's Interim CEO and CFO, I am enthused by the dedication shown by our team as we strive towards this goal," notes Ronan Kennedy. "We view the upcoming proxy vote for our common and preferred shareholders as pivotal. This vote stands to fortify our capital structure, while unlocking potential liquidity for our preferred shareholders, and opening up more transformational strategic activity that is stymied by our current capital structure."

This quarter's accomplishments reflect not only our diligence but our readiness to seize the opportunities that lie ahead. As we move forward, we remain focused on enhancing shareholder value and steering cbdMD towards a prosperous and rewarding future."

Financial Highlights from our Third Quarter of Fiscal 2023:

  • We reported that our net sales for the June 30, 2023 quarter were $6.1 million, essentially flat vs the quarter ending March 31, 2023. Our net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 were down 28% compared to the prior year quarter ended June 30, 2022. For the nine months ending June 30, 2023 we reported net sales of $18.4 million as compared to $27.5 million in the prior year comparative period.
  • We reported that our quarter ending June 30, 2023 direct to consumer (DTC) net sales were $5.0 million, versus $6.5 million for our quarter ending June 30, 2022, or a year over year decline of 26%. Our e-commerce net sales were up 2.3% sequentially.
  • We reported that our quarter ending June 30, 2023 wholesale net sales were $1.1 million, versus $2.1 million for quarter ending June 30, 2022 or year over year decrease of 46%. Wholesale net sales were down 17% sequentially in part due to some temporary disruptions with the e-commerce platform change.
  • For the quarter ending June 30, 2023, the Company continued delivering on cost rationalizations and recorded SG&A Costs of $5.7 million for the quarter as compared to $8.2 million in the prior year period, a $2.6million improvement. Excluding depreciation, amortization, stock and amortization of certain non-cash marketing expenses cash SG&A costs declined $4.3 million to $4.4 million. Changes made during the third quarter will continue to lower our G&A costs in the coming quarters.
  • We reported loss from operations of approximately $1.8 million for the quarter ending June 30, 2023 compared to a $33.2 million loss from operations for our quarter ending June 30, 2022, an improvement of approximately $31.3 million year over year. For the nine months ending June 30, 2023, we reported loss from operations of approximately $7.2 million as compared to $63.2 million for the prior year comparative period.
  • We reported non-GAAP adjusted EBTIDA of approximately $0.6 million in our June 30, 2023 quarter, compared to $2.7 million for the June 30, 2022 quarter, a $2.1 million year over year improvement. Sequentially we improved $0.2 million. This reduction was primarily related to management's actions taken to right size our cost structure over the last few quarters. For the nine months ended June 30, 2023 we reported non-GAAP EBITDA loss of $4.0 million as compared to $10.9 million in the prior year comparative period.

Highlights for the Third Quarter and Notable Business Updates

  • On April 24, 2023, the Company completed its one-for-forty five reverse stock split of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock.
  • On May 3, 2023, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 1,350,000 shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $2.10 per share. Gross proceeds from the offering before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses were approximately $2.8 million.
  • We completed the change of our e-commerce platform to Shopify in June of 2023. The change in platform makes us more nimble, lowers our operating costs compared to Magento and allows us to plug into best-in-class tools for growing direct to consumer ecommerce businesses.
  • On August 1, 2023, the Company filed a preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A and called for a special meeting on September 22, 2023. The Company's board has proposed an amendment to the Series A Preferred Stock designation to provide for the automatic conversion of each Series A Preferred share for 3 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company believes the exchange will, among other benefits to the Company and its shareholders, significantly improve cash flow and enhance the prospects of strategic opportunities for the Company. The proposal requires approval from both of the Company's common shareholders as well as the Series A Preferred shareholders.
  • The Company recently expanded its hemp-derived Delta-91 line to include strain-like experience, including Elevate, Relax, Uplift to complement its existing Delta 9 product offering.
  • We are leading lobbying efforts in Washington to have ingestible and topical CBD products regulated under current regulation, including a submission of written statement to House oversight hearing and responses to Congressional Request of Information on FDA position regarding regulation of hemp derived cannabinoids.

We will host a conference call at 4:30 p.m., Eastern Time, on Thursday, August 10, 2023, to discuss our June 30, 2023, third quarter financial results and business progress.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes a financial measure that excludes the impact of certain items and therefore has not been calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). cbdMD, Inc. has included adjusted loss from operations because management uses this measure to assess operating performance in order to highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying on financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The adjusted operating loss has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net loss from operations as an indicator of our operating performance. Further, this non-GAAP financial measure, as presented by cbdMD, Inc., may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. cbdMD, Inc. has attached to this press release a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
