CHARLOTTE, N.C.--()--cbdMD, Inc. (NYSE American: YCBD, YCBDpA), one of the nation’s leading and most highly trusted and recognized cannabidiol (CBD) brands, today announced its financial results for its first quarter ended December 31, 2020.

Financial Highlights for the Quarter Ended December 31, 2020:

  • Our net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 increased by 22% year-over-year to a record of $12.3 million from $10.1 million from the prior year’s quarter.
  • Our gross profit margin for the quarter increased to 72.2% from 63.5% in the prior year’s quarter.
  • We reported record quarterly E-commerce, direct-to-consumer, net sales of $9.7 million, an increase of $2.8 million, or 41%, from the prior year’s quarter and 13% sequential quarterly growth.
  • Our CBD pet brand, Paw CBD, reported in net sales in quarter increased 83%, to $1.5 million compared to $820,000 from the prior year’s quarter.
  • Our quarterly operating expenses decreased by 15% YOY to $10.7 million from $12.6 million from the prior year’s quarter, a sequential quarterly decrease of 2%.
  • Our loss from operations decreased by 71% to $1.8 million compared to $6.1 million from the prior year’s quarter.
  • Our non-GAAP adjusted operating loss decreased by 90% to $523,841, compared to $5.0 million from the prior year’s quarter.
  • Our net loss attributable to common shareholders for the quarter was approximately $9.5 million, or ($0.18) per share, as compared to net income of approximately $12.9 million, or $0.45 per share from the prior year’s quarter. Our net loss attributable to common shareholders was principally attributable to an increase of approximately $8.5 million in the non-cash contingent liability which is associated with earnout shares which may be issued under the terms of the December 2018 acquisition of Cure Based Development (which owned the cbdMD brand).
  • At December 31, 2020, we had working capital of approximately $30.6 million and cash on hand of approximately $28.8 million as compared to working capital of approximately $16.0 million and cash on hand of approximately $14.8 million at September, 2020. Our working capital position was bolstered during the quarter following our receipt of approximately $15.8 million in net proceeds from our December 2020 sale of shares of our 8.0% Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock in a firm commitment underwritten public offering.

cbdMD, Inc. will host a conference call at 4:15 p.m., Eastern time, on Tuesday, February 9, 2021, to discuss the company’s first quarter fiscal 2021 financial results and business progress.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains certain forward-looking statements that are based upon current expectations and involve certain risks and uncertainties within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of 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 and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider any cautionary statements 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, 2020 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on December 22, 2020, Item 1A. Risk Factors, contained in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the SEC on February 9, 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. The information which appears on our websites and our social media platforms, including, but not limited to, Instagram and Facebook, is not part of this press release.

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.
