Acquisition of Southern Colorado Growers: The Company announced on June 1, 2021, that it had entered into a transaction to acquire the assets of Southern Colorado Growers in Huerfano County, Colorado; (transaction closed July 22, 2021). The acquisition includes 36 acres of land with outdoor cultivation capacity, as well as indoor, greenhouse, and hoop house cultivation facilities and equipment. This purchase expanded Schwazze’s footprint in Colorado, is the Company’s first major move into cultivation, and will provide high-end, premium cannabis directly to its Star Buds dispensaries as well as significant production of biomass for its PurpleBee’s extraction and manufacturing facility.

 

Acquisition of Drift Dispensaries: The Company announced that it had signed definitive documents to acquire the assets of BG3 Investments, LLC dba Drift which consists of two marijuana retail stores located in Boulder, Colorado, bringing the total number of Schwazze Colorado dispensaries to nineteen.

 

We have continued to see strong revenue growth over last year and are pleased with our adjusted EBITDA results,” stated Justin Dye, CEO of Schwazze. “Furthermore, we continue to be encouraged with our retail results, which saw growing sales by 68.9% on a two-year basis. Wholesale results, led by PurpleBee’s distillate also had another record-breaking sales quarter. We continue to execute on our retail and manufacturing playbook with excellent results and with the addition of Southern Colorado Growers and Drift, we look forward to continuing to add to our portfolio of companies.”

Second Quarter 2021 Revenue

Total revenue was $30.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $5.4 million during the same period in 2020 and represents an increase of approximately 467%. Retail sales grew to $21.5 million over the quarter from $0.7 million dollars the previous year and wholesale operations revenue increased to $9.2 million from $4.1 million compared to the same period last year. Other sales decreased to $0.02 million from $0.59 million due to a reduced focus on consulting. The increase in retail and wholesale revenue is attributed to the acquisition of Mesa Organics in April 2020 and the completion of the acquisition of Star Buds in March 2021.

 

Total cost of goods and services were $15.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $3.1 million during the same period in 2020. This increase was due to improved sales from our retail and wholesale operations.

 

Gross profit increased to $14.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $2.3 million during the same period in 2020. Gross profit margin increased as a percentage of revenue from 48.5% to 42.7% mostly driven by the strength of Star Buds acquisition, and our consolidated purchasing approach.

 

Total operating expenses were $10.5 million during the second quarter compared to $8.7 million during the same period in 2020. The higher expenses were due to increased selling, general and administrative expenses, and salaries from the addition of the dispensaries.

 

Q2 2021 net income was $4.4 million, or a gain of approximately $0.10 per share on a basic weighted average, as compared to net loss of $6.6 million, or a loss of approximately $0.16 per share on a basic weighted average during the three months ended June 30, 2020.

 

Q2 2021 adjusted EBITDA was $10.0 million, representing 32.6% of revenue. This is derived from Operating Income and adjusting one-time expenses, merger and acquisition and capital raising costs, non-cash related compensation costs, and depreciation and amortization. See the financial table for Adjusted EBITDA below for details for Q2 2021 adjustments.

 

During the two quarters, the Company generated positive operating cash flow of $1.4 million and $19.9 million in total cash flow for the first two quarters with $21.1 million in cash and cash equivalents at the end of Q2 2021

 

Nancy Huber, CFO for Schwazze commented, “We continue to generate operating cash flows from our acquired businesses. This quarter we used that cash flow to make strategic inventory purchases for third quarter usage.”

 

2021 Guidance

The Company is reiterating its 2021 guidance which excludes transactions that are announced but not closed. Annual revenue guidance is $110 million to $125 million and projected annual adjusted EBITDA from $30 million to $36 million.

 

Adjusted EBITDA represents income (loss) from operations, as reported, before tax, adjusted to exclude non-recurring items, other non-cash items, including stock-based compensation expense, depreciation, and amortization, and further adjusted to remove acquisition related costs, and other one-time expenses, such as severance. The Company uses adjusted EBITDA as it believes it better explains the results of its core business. The Company has not reconciled guidance for adjusted EBITDA to the corresponding GAAP financial measure because it cannot provide guidance for the various reconciling items. The Company is unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items because it cannot determine their probable significance, as certain items are outside of its control and cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP financial measure is not available without unreasonable effort.
