Second Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024, Financial and Operating Results

Revenue totaled $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, which represents a contraction of 12.8%, or $0.3 million compared to the same period in 2023. Revenue totaled $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, which represents a contraction of 13.9%, or $0.6 million compared to the same period in 2023. The primary reason is due to a decrease in sales volume primarily due to GLP-1 pharmaceuticals.

Gross Profit for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $1.1 million, which was slightly below $1.2 million for the same period in 2023. Gross profit as a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024, was 57.7% compared to 53.0% for the same period in 2023. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, was $2.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively. Gross profit as a percentage of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was 58.8% compared to 53.2% for the same period in 2023. The increase in gross profit percentage is due to the reduction in overhead related costs, primarily payroll, as the Company had a reduction of employees late in 2023.

Sales and Marketing Expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $1.5 million, or 69.2%, to $0.7 million, compared to $2.2 million for the same period in 2023. Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024, decreased by $2.7 million, or 61.3%, to $1.7 million, compared to $4.4 million for the same period in 2023. The decrease of $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, is primarily due to a decrease in advertising and marketing expenses, including consulting and professional marketing services, as the Company has reevaluated its marketing approach and has moved to a targeted digital marketing campaign, resulting in a reduction of costs. Additionally, there were reductions in payroll-related expenditures, including commissions, stock compensation expense and travel, due to changes in sales personnel and a reduction in sales.

General and Administrative Expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024, decreased by $0.3 million, or 13.3%, to approximately $2.1 million, compared to $2.4 million for the same period in 2023. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024, decreased by $2.7 million, or 40.1%, to approximately $4.0 million, compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2023. The decrease for both three and six months of 2024 is due a reduction in payroll-related expenditures, from a decline in staffing levels and a reduction in rent expense, as the Company moved its headquarters at the end of the second quarter of 2023 to a small facility to reduce costs and professional fees. In addition, in the first quarter of 2023, the Company incurred approximately $1.5 million in one-time adjustments for professional services related to the February 2023 public offering. The three-month decrease was offset by an increase of $0.1 million in legal costs due to the merger and asset purchase transaction that was entered into during July 2024.

Research and Development Expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024, decreased by $0.2 million, or 31.3% to $0.4 million, compared to $0.6 million for the same period in the prior year. Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024, decreased by $0.2 million, or 14.5% to $0.9 million, compared to approximately $1.0 million for the same period in the prior year. The primary reason for the decrease is due to a reduction in consulting and clinical trials, as the Company has paused all clinical work to preserve cash.

Cash and Cash Equivalents As of June 30, 2024, the Company had net working capital of approximately $2.9 million, primarily due to cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $1.2 million.

A full discussion of the Company’s financials is available in our Second Quarter 2024 Form 10-Q Report, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
