Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – October 28, 2022) – Delivra Health Brands Inc. (TSXV: DHB) (OTCQB: DHBUF) (formerly, Harvest One Cannabis Inc.) (“Delivra Health” or the “Company“), a consumer packaged goods company uniquely positioned in the health and wellness sector, is pleased to announce its financial and operating results for the three and twelve months ended June 30, 2022.

Management Commentary

“Our fiscal year-end financial results illustrate the successful strategic repositioning of the Company to a health and wellness company, successfully restructuring our internal and external teams to increase revenues, operating margins and profitability,” said Gord Davey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Delivra Health. “The past year has been challenging given increasing inflation, supply chain disruptions and slower activity in capital markets. Throughout the year, management has focused on the execution of customer-specific programs, expanding e-commerce platforms, launching innovation products and improving distribution in international markets. In the coming fiscal year, we expect to continue to increase our revenues and profitability through a combined focus on US, international and e-commerce markets.”

Financial Highlights

  • Net revenue: The Company reported total net revenue of $8.14 million in fiscal 2022 compared to $7.96 million in fiscal 2021 from continued operations. This 2.3% increase in net revenue is driven by higher sales in our US operations.
  • Gross profit and gross profit margin: The Company reported gross profit of $2.60 million and a 32% gross profit margin compared to $1.91 million and a 24% gross profit margin from continued operations in fiscal 2021. This increase is attributed to operational improvements, cost alignment projects, and reduction in financial inventory write-downs.
  • Expenses including SG&A and excluding non-cash items: The Company reported expenses of $6.14 million in fiscal 2022 compared to $8.97 million in fiscal 2021, representing a 32% reduction for the year from continued operations. The reduction is driven by management’s efforts in focusing on balanced resources to support the business.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1): The Company reported Adjusted EBITDA of $(2.76) million in fiscal 2022 compared to $(6.06) million in fiscal 2021, representing a $3.3 million or 33% year over year improvement from continued operations. This reduction is driven by management’s efforts in focusing on margin improvement supported by efficient administrative and selling support functions.

Non-IFRS Measures, Reconciliation and Discussion

This press release contains references to “Adjusted EBITDA” which is a non-IFRS financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of the Company’s loss from operations before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization and adjusted for share-based compensation, common shares issued for services, fair value effects of accounting for biological assets and inventories, asset impairment and write-downs, and other non-cash items, and is a non-IFRS measure.

This measure can be used to analyze and compare profitability among companies and industries, as it eliminates the effects of financing and capital expenditures. It is often used in valuation ratios and can be compared to enterprise value and revenue. This measure does not have any standardized meaning according to IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

There are no comparable IFRS financial measures presented in Delivra Health’s financial statements. Reconciliations of the supplemental non-IFRS measure are presented in the Company’s Management Discussion and Analysis for the year ended June 30, 2022. This non-IFRS financial measure is presented because management has evaluated the financial results both including and excluding the adjusted items and believes that the non-IFRS financial measure presented provides additional perspective and insights when analyzing the core operating performance of the business. The Company believes that the supplemental measure provides information which is useful to shareholders and investors in understanding the Company’s performance and may assist in the evaluation of the Company’s business relative to that of its peers.

The non-IFRS financial measure should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for, or as an alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with the IFRS financial measures presented in the Company’s financial statements. For more information, please see “Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS measure)” and “Non-IFRS Measures” in the Company’s Management Discussion and Analysis for the year ended June 30, 2022, which is available under the Company’s profile on www.sedar.com.

Notes:

  1. This is a non-IFRS reporting measure. For a reconciliation of this measure to the nearest IFRS measure, see “Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS measure)” and “Non-IFRS Measures” in the Company’s Management Discussion and Analysis for the year ended June 30, 2022.
