LONGMONT, Colo., Feb. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- S&W Seed Company (Nasdaq: SANW) today announced financial results for the three months ended December 31, 2023.
Financial Highlights
Management Discussion
"We continued to successfully implement key operational initiatives to drive efficiencies across the global organization. These initiatives, coupled with our higher mix of Double Team sales, provided a gross margin improvement to 30.3% this quarter compared to 21.3% in the second quarter one year ago, and a $1.1 million reduction of operating expenses," commented S&W Seed Company's CEO, Mark Herrmann. "A key driver to the gross margin improvement has been the successful adoption of our first trait technology solution – Double Team Grain Sorghum. Double Team sales increased 233% to $4.0 million during the second quarter this year compared to the second quarter one year ago as we continued to see positive farmer satisfaction, demand, and adoption of the high margin trait technology. We are looking to build upon the success of Double Team Grain Sorghum with the introduction of a Double Team Forage Sorghum solution and Prussic Acid Free Trait for sorghum. Initial Double Team Forage Sorghum sales are expected in fiscal 2024, and a pilot launch of our Prussic Acid Free Trait for sorghum is being planted this year. We feel we are clearly becoming a leading technology provider in sorghum, a key global crop, that can be used as a substitute for many grains on the market today due to its key nutrient profile and ability to handle higher temperatures and drier climates better than many other crops."
"While we are achieving strong adoption in our high margin sorghum trait technology solutions, we are closely monitoring the dynamics from the expanding conflicts in the Middle East North Africa, or MENA, region on our international alfalfa product operations. The war in Ukraine, the Sudan Civil War, and expanding geopolitical disruptions have caused the transition of many alfalfa growers in the MENA region to plant wheat this upcoming season, and have caused disruptions to normal farming operations and seed distribution channels. We have already implemented a series of cost saving initiatives within our international operations, as well as production optimization initiatives, to mitigate any potential revenue impact. We will remain proactive to optimize the cost structure of the entire organization to support our near-term goal of profitability."
"We believe we are well positioned within our U.S. sorghum operations to continue the momentum we have achieved during the first half of fiscal 2024. Double Team appears to have proven itself to be a truly special and unique product as the only product available to control grassy weeds in sorghum that rob water, nutrients and ultimately yield from the crop. Since its limited launch in 2021 - and broader commercial launch in calendar year 2022 - Double Team Grain Sorghum accounted for what we estimate to be 6% of all grain sorghum acres in the U.S. spring 2023 planting and we believe it will grow to more than 10% for planting 2024. This is not only a tremendous achievement by our sales team, but also highlights the value and demand for innovation in this critical crop, which has been void of any innovation to this point by the large agricultural companies."
CFO Update
The Company's board of directors appointed Vanessa Baughman as the Company's full-time Chief Financial Officer effective February 12, 2024. Ms. Baughman has been serving as the Company's Interim Chief Financial Officer and corporate Secretary since May 2023. Prior to joining S&W, Ms. Baughman served as Chief Financial Officer and Vice President of Finance of AgReliant Genetics, LLC, the third largest North American seed corn company, headquartered in Westfield, Indiana, from January 2019 to March 2023.
Financial Results
Total revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was $10.9 million compared to total revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 of $12.9 million. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to a $3.5 million decrease in MENA region sales caused by management's decision to not discount non-dormant alfalfa as cheaper European seed disrupted the market and government incentives to produce wheat in Saudi Arabia reduced demand, a $1.1 million decrease in Australia pasture products and non-dormant alfalfa, and a $0.3 million decrease in Asia sales due to inventory carryover into fiscal 2024 leading to lost sales. This decrease was offset by a $2.8 million increase in Double Team traited sorghum revenue.
Gross profit margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was 30.3% compared to gross profit margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 of 21.3%. The improvement in gross profit margin was primarily driven by increased sales of the Company's high margin Double Team traited sorghum and a more favorable product mix in the Australian domestic market. This increase was partially offset by decreased market prices in the MENA region and increased sales of the Company's lower margin grain sorghum in Mexico.
GAAP operating expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 were $7.9 million compared to GAAP operating expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 of $9.0 million. The Company saw a $0.4 million improvement from research and development expenses, a $0.5 million improvement in depreciation and amortization, and a $0.2 million improvement in selling, general, and administrative expenses.
Adjusted operating expenses (see Table A1) for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 were $6.7 million compared to $7.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2023. The $0.9 million decrease in adjusted operating expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was attributed to a $0.5 million decrease in research and development expenses and a $0.4 million decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses after taking out non-recurring transaction costs.
GAAP net loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was ($6.5) million, or ($0.15) per basic and diluted share, compared to GAAP net loss of ($6.0) million, or $(0.14) per basic and diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2023.
Adjusted net loss (see Table A2) for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was ($5.4) million, or ($0.13) per basic and diluted share, excluding interest expense - amortization of debt discount, non-recurring transaction costs, dividends accrued for participating securities and accretion, and equity in loss of equity method investee (Vision Bioenergy), net of tax. Adjusted net loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 was ($5.3) million, or ($0.13) per basic and diluted share, excluding interest expense - amortization of debt discount, non-recurring transaction costs, and dividends accrued for participating securities and accretion.
Adjusted EBITDA (see Table B) for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was ($3.2) million compared to adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 of ($4.6) million.
Fiscal 2024 Guidance
Due to the dynamics in the MENA region potentially impacting international alfalfa operations, S&W expects fiscal 2024 revenue to be on the lower end of the previously communicated range of $76 to $82 million. The Company continues to expect revenue from the Company's Double Team sorghum solutions to be $11.5 to $14.0 million, representing an increase of 77% to 115% compared to fiscal 2023. The Company continues to expect adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $(7.5) million to $(4.0) million for fiscal 2024, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $(9.3) million in fiscal 2023.
As the partnership with Shell is accounted for as an equity method investment, it is not expected to have a material impact on S&W's full-year financial results for fiscal 2024.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to financial results reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), we have provided the following non-GAAP financial measures in this release and the accompanying tables: adjusted EBITDA; adjusted operating expenses; as well as adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to facilitate period-to-period comparisons and analysis of our operating performance and liquidity, and believe they are useful to investors as a supplement to GAAP measures in analyzing, trending and benchmarking the performance and value of our business. However, these measures are not intended to be a substitute for those reported in accordance with GAAP. These measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
For reconciliations of historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable financial measures under GAAP, see Tables A1, A2, and B accompanying this release. We have not reconciled our guidance for adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2024 to net loss because the reconciling line items that impact net loss, including interest expense, non-cash stock-based compensation, foreign currency loss, and equity in loss of equity method investee (Vision Bioenergy), net of tax, among others, are uncertain or out of our control and cannot be reasonably predicted. The actual amount of these items during fiscal 2024 will have a significant impact on net loss. Accordingly, a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to its most directly comparable GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts.
In order to calculate these non-GAAP financial measures, we make targeted adjustments to certain GAAP financial line items found on our condensed consolidated statement of operations, backing out non-recurring or unique items that we believe otherwise distort the underlying results and trends of the ongoing business. We have excluded the following items from one or more of our non-GAAP financial measures for the periods presented:
Selling, general and administrative expenses; operating expenses. We exclude from operating expenses a portion of SG&A expense related to depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock-based compensation, and non-recurring transaction costs. We exclude non-recurring transaction costs from our SG&A expense and total operating expenses to provide investors a method to compare our operating results to prior periods and to peer companies, as such amounts can vary significantly based on the frequency of acquisitions and the magnitude of acquisition expenses.
Foreign currency loss. The foreign currency loss represents fluctuations from changes in exchange rates that are uncertain or out of our control and cannot be reasonably predicted. We believe it is useful to exclude this amount in order to better understand our business performance and allow investors to compare our results with peer companies.
Interest expense – amortization of debt discount. Amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs are primarily related to our working capital lines of credit and term loans. These amounts are non-cash charges and are unrelated to our core performance during any particular period. We believe it is useful to exclude these amounts in order to better understand our business performance and allow investors to compare our results with peer companies.
Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net primary consists of interest incurred on our working capital credit facilities, the MFP Loan, and equipment capital leases. We believe it is useful to exclude these amounts to better understand our business performance and allow investors to compare our results with peer companies.
Dividends accrued for participating securities and accretion. Dividends accrued for participating securities and accretion relates to dividends accrued for the Series B convertible preferred stock and the accretion for the discount related to the warrants issued in conjunction with the Series B convertible preferred stock. We believe it is useful to exclude these amounts in order to better understand our business performance and allow investors to compare our results with peer companies.
Equity in loss of equity method investee (Vision Bioenergy), net of tax. This loss represents S&W's percentage of Vision Bioenergy's loss for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, as it has significant influence in the Company. We believe it is useful to exclude this amount in order to better understand our business performance and allow investors to compare our results with peer companies.
Descriptions of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this release and the accompanying tables are as follows:
Adjusted Operating Expenses. We define adjusted operating expenses as GAAP operating expenses adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization, loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment, and one-time, non-recurring expenses. We believe that the use of adjusted operating expenses is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating our operating performance because it provides a method to compare our operating results to prior periods and to peer companies after making adjustments for depreciation and amortization and amounts that are not expected to recur.
Adjusted net loss and loss per share. We define adjusted net loss as net loss attributable to S&W Seed Company less interest expense – amortization of debt discount, non-recurring transaction costs, dividends accrued for participating securities and accretion and equity in loss of equity method investee (Vision Bioenergy), net of tax. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information for evaluating our operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA. We define adjusted EBITDA as net loss attributable to S&W Seed Company adjusted to exclude interest expense, net, interest expense – amortization of debt discount, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-recurring transaction costs, non-cash stock-based compensation, foreign currency loss, gain on disposal of intangible assets, gain on sale of equity investment, equity in loss of equity method investee (Vision Bioenergy), net of tax, and dividends accrued for participating securities and accretion. We believe that the use of adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating our operating performance because it provides them with an additional tool to compare business performance across companies and across periods. We use adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with traditional GAAP operating performance measures as part of our overall assessment of our performance, for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies and to communicate with our board of directors concerning our financial performance. Management does not place undue reliance on adjusted EBITDA as its only measure of operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a substitute for other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP.
