LAS VEGAS, NV / ACCESSWIRE / May 20, 2024 / Healthy Extracts Inc. (OTCQB:HYEX), a platform for acquiring, developing, patenting, marketing, and distributing plant-based nutraceuticals that target select high-growth categories within the multibillion-dollar nutraceuticals market, reported results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. All comparisons are to the year-ago period unless otherwise noted.
Q1 2024 Financial Highlights
Management Commentary
"In Q1, our top line continued to grow at a healthy double-digit pace, as our product offerings, customer subscriptions, and distribution channels continued to develop and expand," commented Healthy Extracts president, Duke Pitts. "During the quarter, our enhanced manufacturing efficiencies expanded gross margins by 14.1 percentage points to 59.3%.
"These favorable trends contributed to our second cash flow positive quarter in a row at $68,000 for the quarter. Excluding non-core and non-cash costs, we also generated our second quarter in a row of profitability.
"This performance has put us on a solid financial foundation in terms of cash flow and ability to service debt. At the beginning of April, we completed a restructuring and streamlining of debt which resulted in an additional $15,000 a month in positive cash flow, and we plan to invest this into further growing our revenue streams.
"Altogether, Healthy Extracts have never been in a stronger financial position, setting the stage for continued growth without increasing our dependence on the financings or the capital markets.
"Last week, we engaged Bush & Associates as our new independent registered public accounting firm. We believe their more favorable rate structure and nearby locality will decrease our accounting costs and improve efficiencies for future quarters.
"In the second half of this year, we plan to launch several new products into our diverse sales and distribution channels. The new products, which are far along in development, expand our proprietary and patented product portfolio into new categories. Introductions include our exclusive Gelteq delivery system in the anti-aging and sugar blockers categories. We expect their launch will benefit from the broad market channels and customer base we have strategically developed and invested in over the last several years.
"Our overall growth strategy continues to involve both organic growth and strategic acquisitions, with a razor-sharp focus on acquisition targets that experience new exponential growth by leveraging our extensive distribution systems and network.
"We continued our efforts to uplist to a major U.S. stock exchange which we believe would help strengthen our position to acquire complementary businesses.
"We anticipate continued strong progress through the rest of the year for Healthy Extracts, as we focus on top line growth, increased cash flow, and market share expansion."
2024 Financial Outlook
In Q2 and Q3, the company anticipates continued growth and profitability excluding non-cash transactions.
2024 Product Outlook
Healthy Extracts' top brand ambassador and renowned fitness expert, Whitney Johns, is preparing to launch WHITNEY JOHNS™ NUTRITION on-the-go gel packs for COLLAGEN (anti-aging) second half of 2024. These products will be based on Healthy Extracts' exclusive oral delivery system and proprietary formulations.
The company is also planning to launch in the second half of 2024 its new BergaMet MYNUS sugar blocker, which is specially formulated to reduce up to 42% of the sugar impact from meals. The MYNUS on-the-go gel-packs will be made available under the company's exclusive U.S. and Canadian licensing and manufacturing agreement with Gelteq.
Q1 2024 Financial Summary
Net revenue in the first quarter of 2024 increased 12% to $689,000 from $615,000 in the same year-ago quarter, primarily due to distribution channel expansion and, to a lesser extent, growth in subscription-based revenue.
Gross profit totaled $408,000 or 59.3% of net revenue as compared to $278,000 or 45.2% of net revenue in the same year-ago quarter. The increase in gross margin was a result of improved manufacturing efficiency.
Operating expenses, excluding the offering and regulatory expense, and stock compensation expense, decreased $286,000 to $397,000 compared to the same year-ago quarter. The decrease in operating expenses was due to costs associated with on-going efforts in the acquisitions and the planned public offering and uplist to a major exchange in the first quarter of 2023 that did not occur in the first quarter of 2024.
Net loss totaled $861,000 or $(0.30) per basic and diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $579,000 or $(0.20) per basic and diluted share in the same year-ago period.
Excluding costs related to the company's planned acquisition and public offering expenses, regulatory expense, stock-based compensation expense, change in fair value of derivative expense and interest expense, net income in the first quarter of 2024 totaled $2,500 or $0.00 per basic and diluted share.
