Revenues
In the second quarter of 2021, revenues were $1.4 million, compared to revenues of $281,000 in the second quarter of 2020, and first half 2021 revenues were $2.2 million, compared to $590,000 in the first half of 2020. The $1.1 million quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily driven by the sales related to the newly acquired portfolio of wellness brands, in addition to GoodHemp seed sales. The $1.6 million year-over-year increase was driven by the aforementioned, in addition to higher GoodWheat grain sales during the first quarter of 2021.
Operating Expenses
In the second quarter of 2021, operating expenses were $9.1 million compared to $7.2 million in the second quarter of 2020, and first half 2021 operating expenses were $15.2 million compared to $13.3 million in the first half of 2020.
Cost of product revenues in the second quarter of 2021 included costs associated with the newly acquired portfolio of wellness brands and $720,000 of write-downs of wheat inventories and hemp seed inventory to fair value, while the second quarter of 2020 included a $1.4 million write-off of hemp seeds that did not meet quality specifications. Cost of product revenues for the first half of 2021 were $2.4 million, or $821,000 higher than in the first half of 2020, primarily driven by sales of the newly acquired product lines.
Research and development (R&D) spending decreased by $862,000 and $1.9 million for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, primarily due to lower employee expenses as we right-sized our research teams, along with the absence of Verdeca related activity in 2021.
General and administrative (SG&A) costs for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2021 were $2.7 million and $3.0 million higher than in the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, resulting in part from the acquisitions this quarter, including investment banker success fees, legal diligence and transaction fees, as well as additional salaries and benefits with the increased headcount. Marketing, advertising and consulting activities increased in 2021 as well.
Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders
Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the second quarter of 2021 was $5.3 million, or $0.24 per share, a $4.4 million decrease from the $9.7 million, or $1.04 per share, net loss for the second quarter of 2020. The second quarter of 2021 included $2.8 million of other income for the gain on the sale of Bioceres shares and $498,000 of non-cash expense recognized as a result of the increase in the fair value of common stock warrant liabilities. The first quarter of 2020 included $3.1 million of non-cash expense for the increase in the fair value of common stock warrant liabilities.
Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the first half of 2021 was $3.2 million, or $0.15 per share, a $4.0 million decrease from the $7.2 million, or $0.80 per share, net loss for the second half of 2020. A realized gain on the sale of Bioceres shares in the amount of $10.2 million was recognized in the first half of 2021. Non-cash expense of $176,000 was recorded in the first half of 2021 for the increase in the fair value of common stock warrant liabilities, while $5.1 million of non-cash income was recorded during the first half of 2020 for the decrease in the fair value of common stock warrant liabilities.
