Mr. Ellery W. Roberts, CEO of 1847, commented, "2024 was a transformative year marked by a series of strategic initiatives that served as a significant turning point for our company. We recorded revenue of $15.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, with gross profit increasing by 18.6% over the prior year. Toward the end of 2024, we completed the acquisition of CMD, a highly accretive addition to our portfolio. Notably, on a pro forma basis for the year-ended December 31, 2024, CMD reported revenues of $30.8 million-a 13.5% increase compared to the previous year. During the year, CMD's gross profit increased by 25.9% to $13.6 million, while income from operations increased by 26.0% to $7.5 million. Net income grew by 28.9% to $7.5 million, a clear indication of CMD's strong financial trajectory and continued market demand.

A key element of our growth strategy involves selectively refining our portfolio to maximize returns. In late September 2024, we finalized the sale of High Mountain, a Reno, Nevada-based provider of finished carpentry products and services. Originally acquired in October 2021, High Mountain was sold to a strategic buyer for $17.0 million, valuing the business at nearly seven times adjusted EBITDA. This sale price was almost double our estimated purchase price from three years prior, underscoring our ability to enhance portfolio value through strategic oversight and operational improvements.

While our reported net loss for the year may appear significant, it's important to emphasize that a substantial portion of this loss is driven by non-cash and one-time items-particularly the change in fair value of our warrant liabilities. Due to features in the Series A and Series B warrants that allow the exercise price to decrease (subject to a floor) and the number of shares issuable to increase upon certain events (e.g., reverse stock splits, registration resets, or lower-priced financings), as well as the alternative cashless exercise option in the Series A warrants, these warrants provide added value to the holders beyond a standard fixed‑for‑fixed arrangement. As a result, we classify the warrants as liabilities and remeasure them at fair value each reporting period. Over time, upon exercise or expiration, the warrant liabilities will be reduced to zero, with changes reflected as an increase to shareholders' equity and net income.

Excluding these non-cash charges, our core performance remains firmly in line with our long-term objectives, positioning us to capitalize on future growth opportunities.

Looking ahead, we expect to generate net income, projecting approximately $1.3 million in 2025 with revenue exceeding $45 million. This profitability milestone is expected to accelerate in 2026, with anticipated net income of $5.0 million and revenue surpassing $60 million-underscoring the success of our strategic vision and disciplined execution. With a strong pipeline of acquisition opportunities and a relentless focus on high-margin, scalable businesses, we believe we are positioned for exponential growth.

We are also exploring the potential strategic sale of Wolo, as well as strategic alternatives for CMD. The substantial inbound interest we have received is a testament to CMD's strong market presence and financial performance. Given CMD's impressive growth and the strategic value it presents, we believe this is the right time to explore opportunities that could unlock significant value for our shareholders. Our future has never been brighter, and we remain more confident than ever in our ability to drive sustained value for our investors," concluded Mr. Roberts.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

The Company reported Adjusted EBITDA of $(3,309,879) in FY 2024, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $(3,455,112) for FY 2023. The Company defines EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization.

Both EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), and should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, earnings as an indicator of operating performance or cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. The Company believes the presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is relevant and useful by enhancing the readers' ability to understand the Company's operating performance. The Company's management utilizes EBITDA as means to measure performance. The Company's measurements of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar titled measures reported by other companies. The table below reconciles EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, both non-GAAP measures, to GAAP numbers for net loss for years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

About 1847 Holdings LLC
1847 Holdings LLC (NYSE American:EFSH), a publicly traded diversified acquisition holding company, was founded by Ellery W. Roberts, a former partner of Parallel Investment Partners, Saunders Karp & Megrue, and Principal of Lazard Freres Strategic Realty Investors. 1847 Holdings' investment thesis is that capital market inefficiencies have left the founders and/or stakeholders of many small business enterprises or lower-middle market businesses with limited exit options despite the intrinsic value of their business. Given this dynamic, 1847 Holdings can consistently acquire businesses it views as "solid" for reasonable multiples of cash flow and then deploy resources to strengthen the infrastructure and systems of those businesses in order to improve operations. These improvements may lead to a sale or IPO of an operating subsidiary at higher valuations than the purchase price and/or alternatively, an operating subsidiary may be held in perpetuity and contribute to 1847 Holdings' ability to pay regular and special dividends to shareholders.
