cbdMD Reports Sequential Increase in Net Sales

By: Newsfile

Positive Near-Term Sales Trend Expected, Significant Operational Adjustments Implemented

Charlotte, North Carolina--(Newsfile Corp. - May 13, 2022) - cbdMD, Inc. (NYSE American: YCBD) (NYSE American: YCBDpA), one of the nation's leading and most highly trusted and recognized CBD companies, and operator of three of the leading CBD brands -- its flagship brand cbdMD, its animal health brand Paw CBD and its beauty and skincare brand cbdMD Botanicals, -- today announced our financial results for March 31, 2022, as we generated $9.6 million in net sales or an increase of 3.3% sequentially.

"Sales trends have firmed-up and we expect an upward trajectory as we continue through calendar 2022. New sales and marketing strategies have been implemented and near-term results are showing promise. Our cost structure has been significantly adjusted which we believe will result in a reduction in future cost and expenses by over 25% or $10 million per year. Going forward, we expect that as our sales growth returns and as our infrastructure becomes more streamlined, our operational results should improve. Our goal is to maintain a cost structure which will yield a positive adjusted EBITDA at quarterly net sales which we achieved in our prior fiscal year. Since our CBD sales commenced in 2018, we have fulfilled over 1.5 million customer orders which have generated over $125 million in net sales. We believe that our premium brands provide a compelling customer experience at a competitive price point. Our expansion into new categories and markets show promise. We have had numerous regulatory and research and development achievements this past quarter which we believe will result in our brands mainstream acceptance as the regulatory climate codifies. Our market share continues to remain strong, and we are optimistic about our future," said Martin Sumichrast, Chairman & co-CEO.

Financial Highlights from our March 31, 2022, Quarter:

  • We reported that our net sales for the March 31, 2022, quarter were $9.6 million versus net sales of $9.3 million quarter ending December 31, 2021, or sequential growth of 3.3%. Our net sales for the March 31, 2022, quarter were down 18% compared to the prior year quarter ended March 31, 2021.
  • We reported that our March 31, 2022, e-commerce, direct to consumer (DTC) net sales were $6.6 million, versus $7.1 million for our quarter ending December 31, 2021, or a sequential decline of 7.52%. Our e-commerce net sales were down 24.9% compared to the prior year quarter ended March 31, 2021.
  • We reported that our March 31, 2022, wholesale sales (including brick and mortar retail customers) was $3.0 million, versus $2.2 million quarter ending December 31, 2021, or sequential increase of 38.2%. Wholesale (including brick and mortar retail customers) net sales were down 11.3% compared to the prior year quarter ended March 31, 2021.
  • We reported that our March 31, 2022, gross profit margin was 66.9% versus 63.0% (adjusted for one-time inventory charge) for the quarter ending December 31, 2021. Our gross profit margin was 69.1% in prior year quarter ended March 31, 2021.
  • We reported that we are reducing our manufacturing and distribution costs as well as, selling, general and administrative costs (SG&A) which we believe will result in over $10 million of cost reductions or approximately 25% on an annualized basis. These cost reductions were implemented in the March 31, 2022, quarter and are expected to take effect in the Company's current quarter. We anticipate our SG&A to be reduced from $11.45 million in our March 31, 2022, quarter to approximately $9.6 million in our current quarter, in addition to lower manufacturing (as we have outsourced our manufacturing) and distribution costs.
  • We reported our loss from operations was approximately $5.0 million in our March 31, 2022, quarter compared to $7.0 million for our quarter ending December 31, 2021, a decrease of approximately 28.6% sequentially. This decrease is primarily related to an increase in sales quarter over quarter as well a sequential decrease in operating expenses from the prior quarter. Our loss from operation was up 20% as compared to the prior year quarter ending March 31, 2021.
  • We reported our non-GAAP adjusted operating loss was approximately $3.6 million in our March 31, 2022, quarter, compared to a $4.7 million for our quarter ending December 31, 2021. This decrease was primarily related to increased sales over the December 31, 2021, quarter as well as a sequential decrease in operating expenses of $500,000. Our non-GAAP adjusted operating loss was up 31% compared to the prior year quarter ending March 31, 2021.
  • We reported that as of March 31, 2022, we had working capital of approximately $18.5 million and cash on hand of approximately $13.3 million. Cash on hand used during our March 31, 2022, quarter was approximately $3.7 million to fund operations (which was an 18% decrease from our December 31, 2021, quarter), $1 million to pay our Series A Preferred Dividend, $950,000 to fund receivables (mainly due to our GNC retail order) and $1 million to reduce our legacy payables.

Achievements from our March 31, 2022, Quarter:

  • We received the EU's Food Safety Authority Validation of our Hemp Extract Formulation: This validation represents a significant milestone and provides the Company an opportunity to expand its global footprint in an anticipated growing marketplace, that together with the UK, has a total addressable population more than 500 million people. According to a recent report by the Brightfield Group, the EU's CBD market is expected to grow to more than $2.3 billion by 2025, representing a five-year CAGR of over 33%.

  • We requested the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to remove the drug exclusion for CBD and review cbdMD's extensive safety submission: In conjunction with the Natural Products Association (NPA), we filed a Citizen's Petition against the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requesting the FDA to remove the drug exclusion for CBD and to review the Company's extensive dossier of identity, safety and quality data. Removing the drug exclusion for CBD will achieve clarity in the market and create a level playing field for all participants. The outcome of this process is expected to result in the ability of the Company to submit and receive acknowledgement for a New Dietary Ingredient Notification (NDIN). This will finally allow the Company to inform consumers of the benefits of its cannabinoid products and expand its sales in the United States by opening mass retail channels.

  • We became the first American CBD brand to receive validation by the UK Food Standards Agency: We received validation of our Novel Food application from the United Kingdom's Food Standards Agency for our natural plant-based CBD formulation. We are now approved to sell our proprietary and validated tinctures, gummies, and capsules across the UK.

  • We became the first CBD company to earn the prestigious NSF International's Certified for Sport® certification: We believe this highly respected designation of NSF Certified for Sport,® opens the door to acceptance by major sports leagues globally. The Company's award-winning, patent-pending proprietary broad spectrum hemp extract blend passed the rigorous testing standards set forth by NSF International for 4 of the Company's flagship products.

  • We expanded into 840 GNC Locations: We expanded our product offering and nationwide footprint with major retail partner GNC, with distribution in over 840 retail GNC stores nationwide. The product offerings included a variety of ingestibles, functional CBD gummies, sleep aids, soft gels and tinctures.

  • We signed 7x NASCAR Champion Jimmie Johnson as a brand ambassador: We entered into an endorsement agreement with 7-time NASCAR Cup Series (NCS) Champion and current NTT INDYCAR SERIES driver Jimmie Johnson as a strategic brand ambassador. cbdMD was also approved as a sponsor of INDYCAR.

We will host a conference call at 4:30 p.m., Eastern Time, on Friday, May 13, 2022, to discuss our March 31, 2022, second quarter financial results and business progress.

Such forward-looking statements can be identified using words such as ''should,'' ''may,'' ''intends,'' ''anticipates,'' ''believes,'' ''estimates,'' ''projects,'' ''forecasts,'' ''expects,'' ''plans,'' and ''proposes.'' These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict. You are urged to carefully review and consider any cautionary statements, including but not limited to expectations on cost reductions, and other disclosures, including the statements made under the heading "Risk Factors" in cbdMD, Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on December 17, 2021 and our other filings with the SEC. All forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, many of which are generally outside the control of cbdMD, Inc. and are difficult to predict. cbdMD, Inc. does not undertake any duty to update any forward-looking statements except as may be required by law.

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.
