Unrivaled Brands Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Financial Results
SANTA ANA, Calif., April 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Unrivaled Brands, Inc. (OTCQB: UNRV) ("Unrivaled" or the "Company"), a cannabis company with operations throughout California, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2022.
Fourth Quarter 2022 Highlights
- Unrivaled posted income from operations of $8.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 compared to a loss from operations of $13.3 million in the prior year, an increase of $22.1 million.
- Net income from continuing operations was $3.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 versus a net loss of $16.2 million in the same period last year.
- EBITDA income from continuing operations was $9.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to an EBITDA loss of $10.4 million for the prior year’s fourth quarter.
- During the quarter ended December 31, 2022, the Company reduced total liabilities by $48.3 million to $77.0 million as of December 31, 2022, down from $125.3 million at the end of the prior year, a reduction of 39%. This decrease was the result of successful efforts to renegotiate debt, pay down creditors, dispose of non-performing assets, and improve working capital.
- During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company commenced a $2.0 million capital raise from a Series V Preferred Share offering, which was subsequently closed in the first quarter of 2023.
Director of Marketing at Unrivaled, Danielle Sebastian stated, “The strategic thinking brought to the table from both the Unrivaled Brands and Adnant teams has been a gamechanger. It feels like we’ve moved mountains over the past several months together. We’re working with a group of people who care about the cannabis industry in a real way and whose work ethic is extremely strong. When I look around, I’m proud to see leaders from all walks of life that each have a unique point of view. Combined, we have the opportunity to develop a new meaning of cannabis culture and build something that no one else has ever created.”
Blake Powers, Vice President of Korova at Unrivaled, added, "I am excited to be part of a team leading the charge with our team’s interest at heart. Their focus on company culture and doing right by the people on our front lines has been as refreshing as it is motivating. In a sea of uncertainty that is the cannabis landscape in California, it's nice to know you're on a boat with people that know how to row."
Full Year 2022 Highlights
- Fiscal 2022 revenues increased $9.9 million, or 23%, from fiscal 2021, to $52.0 million. Revenue growth was driven primarily by a 63% increase in revenue from retail operations.
- Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2022 increased to $17.0 million, a 53% increase from the prior year.
- For the year ended December 31, 2022, loss from continuing operations was $193.8 million, which was primarily attributable to an impairment loss of $163.7 million, the majority of which was related to the acquisitions of UMBRLA, People’s, and SilverStreak, compared to loss from continuing operations of $38.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.
- As part of the Company’s strategic restructuring in fiscal year 2022, the Company terminated its third-party distribution operations in California and its retail and delivery operations at SilverStreak Sacramento. In November 2022, the Company received confirmation for the legal dissolution of SilverStreak and the entities related to its distribution operations in the state of California. As a result, all liabilities and existing obligations of the dissolved entities were extinguished and the Company recorded a gain of disposal of assets for $7.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2022.
Patty Chan, Unrivaled’s Interim Chief Financial Officer concluded, “Today, I am proud to say that we have overcome obstacles that seemed insurmountable, and we have emerged stronger than ever before. Our resilience and determination have paved the way for opportunities for a brighter future for Unrivaled. I am excited about the opportunities that lie ahead. But let me tell you, we’re not done yet. We can’t celebrate just yet, because there’s still much work to be done.”
