Unrivaled Brands Reports Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

15 November 2021

Unrivaled Brands, Inc. (OTCQX: UNRV) ("Unrivaled" or the "Company"), a multi-state vertically integrated company focused on the cannabis sector with operations in California, Oregon, and Nevada, today reported its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Frank Knuettel, Chief Executive Officer of Unrivaled Brands stated, “I’m pleased to report the operating results for our first quarter after merging with UMBRLA, which was an important step forward in our effort to become the dominant west coast multi-state operator in the cannabis industry. During the third quarter, we recorded $23.4 million in revenues, up 274% from $6.3 million in revenues during the second quarter of this year and up 668% from $3.1 million in revenues during the third quarter of 2020.

“Moreover, while we have more work to do, the cost reductions we have enacted thus far this year are evident in our operating results. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses rose considerably less than our revenue increase and represent 58% of revenue for the third quarter of 2021 down from 183% of revenue for the third quarter of 2020.

“With our expanded footprint, including dispensaries that currently are operating and dispensaries in development that are scheduled to open in the coming months, we would like to take this opportunity to affirm our revenue guidance for 2022 in excess of $130 million for the year, notwithstanding any new relationship, partnerships or acquisitions we may make.”

Financial Update

  • Our gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 was approximately $2.3 million, compared to a gross profit of approximately $1.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $0.9 million. Our gross profit for this quarter was impaired by an approximate $4 million reserve we took against old inventory following the UMBRLA merger. While we made operational changes that we expect will reduce the supply and demand imbalance going forward, we remain cautious of the bulk market and are continuing to review that aspect of our business.
  • Our selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the third quarter of 2021 were approximately $13.5 million, compared to approximately $5.6 million for the third quarter of 2020, an increase of $7.9 million or 142%. Importantly, as a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses declined from 183% of revenue to 58% of revenue. As we continue to grow our operations, we will incur increased overhead expenses, but expect the SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue to meaningfully decline.
  • We reported a net loss from operations of $11.8 million for the third quarter of 2021 compared to a net loss of $14.1 million the third quarter of 2020. Importantly, our non-GAAP loss declined for the same period from $12.7 million to $0.9 million for this most recent quarter, a marked improvement. The non-GAAP details and reconciliation is set forth in the form 10-Q.

The Company will host a conference call at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on Monday, November 15, 2021 to discuss its financial results and business highlights.
