Financial Results for the Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2023:

Revenue totaled $80.7 million, an increase of $57.6 million or 250% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $23.1 million for the same period the year prior. Approximately $41 million or 71% of the increase in year-over-year revenue was related to the LuckyTail brand and E-Core Technology, Inc. and approximately $18.8 million or 33% was related to Cygnet Online, LLC and VitaMedica, Inc. The Company's primary brands, VitaMedica, LuckyTail and Tytan Tiles all had significant growth year-over-year.

Cost of revenue totaled $47.1 million, an increase of $38.9 million or 475% compared with the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. Gross profit totaled $33.6 million, an increase of $18.7 million. Gross profit margin decreased to 42% as compared to 64% in the prior year primarily due to the sales from the product distribution segment versus the sales of our branded products. Management expects gross profit margins to improve as the branded products segment continues to grow as a percentage of the overall sales and the Company continues to gain economies of scale in the purchasing of products.

Sales and marketing expenses totaled $10.4 million as compared to $5.1 million for the same period last year. The increase in sales and marketing expenses was primarily related to the acquisitions. Management has aligned the marketing expenditures with the expected growth strategy to decrease the overall percentage of sales and marketing costs to sales. The Company anticipates advertising expenses will continue to fluctuate in the following quarters as it fully implements its overall brand marketing strategy.

Distribution costs totaled $12.4 million as compared to $2.2 million for the same period last year. There continues to be increased in transportation costs and third-party provider rates, which management has implemented a strategy to change promotions, increase prices and adjust packaging to decrease the overall percentage of distribution costs to sales and is in process of consolidating its distribution centers, including closing the California facility as of July 1, 2023.

General and administrative expenses increased to $9.5 million as compared to $9.1 million for the same period last year. General and administrative expenses increased by $2.3 million from 2023 acquisitions with the remainder of the business had a decrease in general and administrative expenses of $1.9 million. Management has actively been reducing the general administrative costs by the consolidation of administrative functions and capitalizing on the overall size of the Company. Management will continue to implement strategies to decrease the percentage of general and administrative costs when compared to total sales.

Other operating expenses totaled $8.8 million as compared to $4.9 million for the same period last year. These expenses are primarily non-cash and increase based on the intangible assets created with acquisitions and the continued amortization of stock compensation.

Other expenses increased by $10.9 million, which was primarily the loss recognized on the sale of Infusionz and the related business, the reserves against amounts owed to the Company by the buyers of that business, impairment of Interactive Offers intangible assets and an increase of interest expense from both acquisition debt and the termination of a $15 million senior secured debt facility on October 1, 2022. Management estimates based on the current and expected debt balances in fiscal year 2024 that interest expense will be less than $2.8 million and cash paid for interest to be less than $1.4 million.

Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2023 totaled $1.2 million as compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.6 million. A complete reconciliation of non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA is provided in the table below.

The Company had a net loss of $16.9 million compared to net loss of $2.1 million in the prior year. The decrease in net income is primarily related to the above-mentioned changes.

On June 30, 2023, the Company had cash of $4.5 million, working capital of $5.8 million and availability on the line of credit of over $6 million and on September 30, 2023 had availability of over $9.8 million on the line of credit.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company discloses and uses the above-mentioned non-GAAP financial measures internally as a supplement to GAAP financial information to evaluate its operating performance, for financial planning purposes, to establish operational goals, for compensation plans, to measure debt service capability, for capital expenditure planning and to determine working capital needs and believes that these are useful financial measures also used by investors. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income or net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) adjusted for the non-cash stock compensation and stock option expense, acquisition, integration & restructuring expenses, charges and gains or losses from extinguishment of debt and other non-cash items. Non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA are not terms defined by GAAP and, as a result, the Company's measure of non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flow that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures discussed above, however, should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to net income or net loss as reported for GAAP on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, cash and cash flows on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, and as reflected on the Company's financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for or presented in lieu of financial measures provided by GAAP and all measures and disclosures of financial information pursuant to GAAP should be read to obtain a comprehensive and thorough understanding of the Company's financial results. The reconciliations of non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA to GAAP operating income (loss) and/or GAAP net income (net loss) referred to in the highlights or elsewhere are provided in the schedules that are a part of this document.
