Eastside Distilling Reports First Quarter 2021 Financial Results
PORTLAND, Ore., May 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Eastside Distilling, Inc. (NASDAQ: EAST) ("Eastside" or the "Company"), a consumer-focused beverage company that builds craft inspired experiential brands and high-quality artisan products around premium spirits and ready-to-drink "RTD" craft cocktails, reported first quarter 2021 financial results for the period ended March 31, 2021.
First Quarter 2021 Highlights:
- Consolidated top line sales growth in Q1 of +4% despite Covid pandemic
- Fully diluted EPS of $0.31
- Executed on improvements in structural cost reduction to operating expenses
- Significantly improved liquidity while refinancing near-term maturities
"The results for the first quarter reflect continued operating improvement of the Company as we continue to build a sustainable growth strategy that capitalizes on the fast-growing craft spirits and canning businesses. All metrics are moving in the right direction and we made good progress in the quarter," said Paul Block, Eastside's CEO.
Financial Results
Gross sales for the three months ending March 31, 2021 increased 4% to $3.2 million from $3.1 million for the three months ending March 31, 2020. This was primarily driven by increases in canning sales and services, which has benefited from a shift in consumer preferences to consume alcohol at home rather than at on-premise locations. Gross profit for the three months ending March 31, 2021 increased 3% to $0.75 million from $0.73 million for the three months ending March 31, 2020.
Total operating expenses for the three months ending March 31, 2021 declined 17% to $3.0 million from $3.7 million for the three months ending March 31, 2020. This reduction was due to lower non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses, and stock-based compensation.
Net income including discontinued operations for the three months ending March 31, 2021 was $3.7 million, or $0.33 per share, compared to a loss of $(3.5) million, or ($0.36) per share, for the three months ending March 31, 2020. Adjusted EBITDA improved to $(1.2) million for the three months ending March 31, 2021 compared to $(2.1) million for the three months ending March 31, 2020. The Company accounted for the Redneck Riviera License Termination and closing of its retail tasting rooms as part of discontinued operations in its 2021 Form 10-Q filing.
During the first quarter, the Company delivered 8,913 cases of spirits, excluding Redneck Riviera. Of that total, Portland Potato Vodka ("PPV") represented over 4,500 cases as the PPV brand continues to accelerate the expansion of its distribution outside of Oregon. The Company shipped 2,921 and 1,026 cases of Azuñia and Burnside, respectively. The Azuñia brand continues to be affected by the shut-down of on-premise accounts in the West. The following table details cases delivered during the three months ending March 31, 2021:
9L Cases | Q1 2021 | Q1 2020 |
Azuñia | 2,921 | 3,297 |
Burnside | 1,026 | 1,195 |
Hue-Hue | 121 | 154 |
PPV | 4,669 | 4,539 |
Legacy Brands | 175 | 552 |
9L Case Volume | 8,913 | 9,737 |
The Company ended the quarter with $4.3 million in borrowings under its Live Oak and FIB credit facilities and reported cash of $2.0 million. The Company has achieved substantial progress on improving its cash position and reducing debt. On February 5, 2021, the Company terminated its Redneck Riviera license agreement and sold certain raw materials and finished goods, reducing debt and raising cash. In addition, the Company has received complete forgiveness of its loan under the Paycheck Protection Program of $1.4 million. Finally, the Company issued the initial portion of the Azuñia Earnout in stock at a weighted average price of $4.67 per share.
Subsequent to the first quarter, the Company finalized a security purchase agreement with accredited investors for their purchase of up to $3.3 million of principal amount of 6% secured convertible promissory notes of the Company that are convertible into shares with an initial conversion price of $2.20 per share. Additionally, the Company issued the final portion of the Azuñia Earnout in stock at a price of $1.82 per share.
The Company will give further updates on its earnings conference call.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
Eastside Distilling's management evaluates and makes operating decisions using various financial metrics. In addition to the Company's GAAP results, management also considers the non-GAAP measure of adjusted EBITDA as a supplement to GAAP results. Management believes this non-GAAP measure provides useful information about the Company's operating results and assists investors in comparing the Company's performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that it does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance.
The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and other one-time items. The table below provides a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
Conference Call
The Company will hold a conference call today to discuss these results.
