Arcadia Biosciences, Inc.® (Nasdaq: RKDA), a leader in science-based approaches to enhancing the quality and nutritional value of crops and food ingredients, today released its financial and business results for the first quarter of 2021.
"With our acquisition of select assets of Lief Holdings, LLC and Live Zola, LLC announced today, we added to our business a well-established portfolio of best-in-class CBD-infused and wellness products generating $6 million in recurring annual revenues with strong growth potential, and we gained access to a national distribution network offering retail sales synergies with our GoodWheat™ and GLA consumer products," said Matt Plavan, CEO of Arcadia. "In line with our stated strategy to increase our verticalization and maximize control over our supply chain to ensure quality from seed to sale and to participate more fully in the value of the brands for our proprietary innovations, the Lief manufacturing capability and distribution into over 5,000 retail doors delivers resoundingly on that strategy."

Revenues
In the first quarter of 2021, revenues were $828,000, compared to revenues of $309,000 in the first quarter of 2020. The quarter-over-quarter increase was driven by GoodWheat grain sales and higher GLA product sales.
Operating Expenses
In the first quarter of 2021, operating expenses were $6.2 million, compared to $6.1 million in the first quarter of 2020. Research and development (R&D) spending decreased by $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2021, mostly due to lower employee expenses and the absence of Verdeca related activity in 2021 as our portion of the joint venture was sold to Bioceres in November 2020. General and administrative (SG&A) costs for the first quarter of 2021 were $346,000 higher than the first quarter in 2020, primarily driven by higher employee expenses and increased commercial activities, partially offset by less stock compensation for consultants. Cost of product revenues was $856,000 in the first quarter of 2021 as compared to $132,000 in the first quarter of 2020, the increase primarily the result of additional sales.
Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders
Net income attributable to common stockholders for the first quarter of 2021 was $2.1 million, or $0.11 per share, a $467,000 decrease from the $2.5 million, or $0.29 per share, of net income for the first quarter of 2020. The first quarter of 2021 included $322,000 of non-cash income recognized as a result of the decrease in the fair value of common stock warrant liabilities while the first quarter of 2020 included $8.2 million of non-cash income for this same item. Non-cash income of $7.5 million was recorded in the first quarter of 2021 for the increase in the fair market value of the shares of Bioceres stock held, but no such income was recorded in the first quarter of 2020 as the stock was acquired in November 2020.
