Fourth Quarter 2022 versus Fourth Quarter 2021 Results

Revenue increased 48.5% to $192.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 driven by 56.3% growth in the Jamieson Brands segment and 22.4% growth in the Strategic Partners segment.

  • Jamieson Brands segment revenue increased by $56.2 million or 56.3% driven by the following:
    • Jamieson Canada revenue growth of 6.3%, reflecting continued consumer demand, higher average retailer inventories in conjunction with a severe cold & flu season, and in-year pricing;
    • Jamieson China revenue growth of 41.5%, reflecting strong consumer demand as COVID-19 related lockdowns were eliminated in the quarter;
    • Jamieson International revenue decline of 21.0%, largely resulting from geopolitical and economic pressures in eastern Europe and delayed entry into certain markets due to regulatory changes;
    • Newly acquired youtheory business in 2022 contributed revenue of $50.6 million driven by seasonally higher promotions ahead of new year offset by lower customer inventory levels as specific partners reduced stocks on-hand in support of 2023 innovation plans.
  • Strategic Partners segment revenue increased by $6.7 million or 22.4%, to $36.8 million reflecting pricing to maintain existing margin structure and volume changes of customer products.

Gross profit increased 44.1% to $71.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Gross profit margin(3) decreased by 120 basis points to 36.9% in the fourth quarter of 2022, driven by 80 basis points from youtheory gross profit margins which are inherently lower than the base business and 40 basis points due to a higher proportion of Strategic Partner sales.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased by $13.2 million to $32.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Normalized SG&A(1) increased by $8.8 million driven by the inclusion of the youtheory acquisition of $7.0 million while expanding its resources and marketing activity plus $1.8 million in the base business.

Earnings from operations increased 28.5% to $37.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 and operating margin(3) decreased by 300 basis points to 19.2% due to factors affecting gross profit margin and higher SG&A investments discussed above. Normalized earnings from operations(1) increased by $13.4 million or 46.2% in the fourth quarter of 2022 and normalized operating margin(2) was 22.0% compared with 22.4% in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA increased by 44.7% to $48.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 and Adjusted EBITDA margin(2) was 25.4% compared with 26.0% in the fourth quarter of 2021 as youtheory Adjusted EBITDA margins are inherently lower than the base business.

Interest expense and other financing costs increased by $4.4 million to $5.8 million due to higher average borrowing rates and higher borrowings to support the youtheory acquisition.

Net earnings for the fourth quarter of 2022 were $22.1 million compared with $20.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Adjusted net earnings increased by $6.3 million, or 30.6%, to $26.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Adjusted net earnings in the quarter exclude costs associated with foreign exchange gain/loss, acquisition related costs, IT system improvements, and other non-operating earnings or expenses net of related tax effects. A quantitative reconciliation of reported net earnings to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and non-IFRS normalized gross profit, normalized SG&A, normalized earnings from operations and Adjusted net earnings are included in the table accompanying this release under the heading “Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures”.

Balance Sheet & Cash Flow

The Company generated $40.8 million in cash from operations during the fourth quarter of 2022 compared with $34.3 million generated in the fourth quarter of 2021. Cash from operating activities before working capital considerations(1) of $29.1 million was $4.5 million higher due to increased earnings in the current quarter. Cash generated from working capital increased by $1.9 million mainly driven by favourable timing of payables and accelerated inventory purchases realized earlier in 2022. The Company’s cash as at December 31, 2022 was $26.2 million compared with $6.8 million on December 31, 2021 due to foreign currencies (U.S. dollars) held for short-term obligations in Canada as well as the impact of its expanded global operations. The Company ended the year with approximately $126.2 million in cash and available operating lines and net debt(1) of $373.8 million.

Fiscal 2023 Outlook

The Company is introducing its outlook for fiscal 2023 and anticipates revenue in a range of $670.0 to $700.0 million, which represents annual growth of 22.0% to 28.0%. The Company estimates Adjusted EBITDA in a range of $140.0 to $146.0 million representing approximately 13.0% to 18.0% growth and Adjusted diluted earnings per share in a range of $1.62 to $1.72.

This outlook for revenue growth reflects the following assumptions:

  • Jamieson Brands segment revenue growth of 24.0% to 30.0%, driven by the following:
    • Jamieson Canada revenue growth of 3.0% to 6.0%, reflecting continued consumer demand, marketing plans, innovation, and the impact of prior year pricing;
    • Youtheory revenue of between $145.0 and $155.0 million (approximately 11.5% to 19.0% on a pro-forma basis) driven by product innovation, expanded e-commerce initiatives and distribution gains;
    • Jamieson China revenue to increase by 65.0% to 75.0%, reflecting a transition to an owned distribution model and the related step-up in distributor level pricing realized on revenues beginning the second quarter of 2023 along with continued consumer demand in e-commerce and distribution gains in the domestic retail channels (approximately 25.0% to 30.0% growth on a pro-forma basis);
    • Jamieson International revenue growth of 5.0% to 20.0% driven by marketing, innovation, and distribution into new markets as well as expansion across key regions.
  • Strategic Partners segment revenue growth of 15.0% to 20.0%, reflecting pricing to maintain existing margin structure and program changes with existing customers.

The outlook for Adjusted EBITDA growth and Adjusted diluted earnings per share reflect the following assumptions:

  • Gross profit margin to remain consistent with the prior year as the expected decline in Jamieson Brands margins is offset by favourable customer and program mix impacting Strategic Partners. Jamieson Brands margins will be approximately 100 basis points lower impacted by the full year inclusion of youtheory and the transition to an owned distribution model in China;
  • Normalized SG&A including marketing expenses are expected to increase 35.0% to 40.0% based on the acquisition of youtheory and an accelerated investment in marketing, resources and infrastructure to support long-term growth opportunities in the United States and in China;
  • Based on the resource and marketing investments being made to drive long term growth, adjusted EBITDA margins are expected to decline by 175 basis points in 2023. The decline includes the margin profile of the acquired businesses and proportionate revenue growth within Strategic Partners;
  • Interest expense of $17.5 to $18.5 million reflecting incremental debt to fund the acquisition and higher prevailing interest rates.

For additional details on the Company’s fiscal 2023 outlook, including guidance for the first quarter of 2023, refer to the “Outlook” section in the management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (“2022 MD&A”) for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022.

Flashfood Appoints Grocery Industry Veteran Nicholas Bertram as President and Chief Operating Officer.

Former President of The GIANT Company Joins Flashfood in its Mission to Reduce Food Waste and Help Families Save Money on Groceries

Flashfood, a digital marketplace that connects consumers to heavily discounted food nearing its best-by date, today announced the addition of Nicholas Bertram to the leadership team in a newly created position of president and chief operating officer.

Bertram’s appointment comes on the heels of a historic year for Flashfood. The company has successfully diverted over 65 million pounds of food from landfills – a milestone achieved following the company’s rapid expansion to over 1,550 grocery stores across North America. In addition to providing consumers and retailers with a simple solution to reduce food waste, Flashfood has also saved shoppers more than $150 million on grocery bills during a time when food costs are rising more than 11 percent.

Bertram joins the company with more than 20 years of experience in the retail industry where he has dedicated his career to achieving sustainability, innovation and growth for companies including Jewel-Osco, Walmart and most recently as president of The GIANT Company, an Ahold Delhaize brand.

During Bertram’s tenure at The GIANT Company, the retailer saw historic growth through acquisitions, new formats, market expansion, as well as the exponential growth of digital engagement and eCommerce sales. Even greater than the commercial success was the impact Bertram had on its purpose-led culture.

“Nick brings an unprecedented level of first-hand leadership experience with some of the biggest names in the retail sector,” said Flashfood Founder and CEO, Josh Domingues. “His vision and successes around sustainable retailing align perfectly with our company’s mission to reduce food that is wasted throughout the retail sector. Nick has seen how the level of waste experienced by grocers represents billions of dollars in lost revenue and understands the massive impact this also has on our planet. More importantly, he understands how this food could have helped families which is a shared passion he brings to Flashfood that will help fuel our next phase of growth.”

As the new President and COO of Flashfood, Bertram will accelerate Flashfood’s growth, working closely with Domingues and internal department leaders to further develop capabilities and innovation that impacts the connected problems of food insecurity and food waste.

“I have never been more excited about the collective impact the food industry, sustainability-minded investors and technology companies like Flashfood can have on our future,” said Bertram. “Josh and the rest of the board of directors have given me an amazing opportunity to join at this stage, with such a talented team and unique product. Together with its retail partners, Flashfood is already making huge inroads in reducing food waste while helping consumers save money – and now is the right time to accelerate this bold work.”

The Flashfood app enables consumers to browse deals – directly from their phone – as a way to save up to 50% off high-quality items nearing their best-by dates, such as meats, dairy, seafood, fresh fruits and vegetables, bakery items and more. Shoppers conveniently browse and buy discounted food items directly through the Flashfood app on their mobile phones, and then simply pick up their order from the Flashfood Zone located inside their participating stores

PHARMANUTRA S.P.A PARTNERS WITH FERRARI-AF CORSE TO FACE THE CHALLENGES OF THE NEW LE MANS HYPERCAR 499P

Specialized in mineral and iron-based nutritional supplements and medical devices for muscles and joints, PHARMANUTRA is ready to face the great challenge of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) alongside Team Ferrari-AF Corse, which will be competing with two official Ferrari 499P prototypes.
Under the agreement, the Cetilar® brand, a line of products containing Cetylated Fatty Acids for healthy muscles and joints, available as Cream, Patch, Tape and now also Oro, will feature on the two new Le Mans Hypercar category cars, which will make their début at Sebring, Florida (USA), in March, for the first race of the World Endurance Championship. Cetilar® will also appear on the suits of the six official Ferrari drivers at the wheel of the two Prancing Horse Hypercars.

“This partnership will not merely consist in the presence of our Cetilar® brand on the magnificent Ferrari 499P and on the drivers’ suits, but also in a close medical and scientific partnership with Med-Ex, the sector leader that has worked with Ferrari for many years” stated Roberto Lacorte, Deputy Chairman of the Company, who plays a hands-on role in racing activities as a driver in the all-Italian Cetilar Racing team, which is competing in the IMSA WeatherTech Sports Car Championship with a Ferrari 296 GT3 under the technical management of AF Corse.

As the official Medical Partner of Ferrari Competizioni GT, Med-Ex will attend to the physical preparation and all aspects of the health of the Prancing Horse’s official drivers participating in the FIA WEC behind the wheel of the 499P, and the rest of the team, using Cetilar® products, in the run-up to the launch of the new sports nutrition line, and the other nutritional supplements in which Sucrosomial® Technology ensures better tolerability and outstanding absorption levels.

“The ideal bond between Cetilar® and the project involving Ferrari-AF Corse’s team with the 499P is, in many ways, almost natural. Cetilar® is a market-leading product developed by PharmaNutra, a symbol of Italian excellence in the pharma and healthcare field, and the same excellence inspires the partnership between Ferrari and our team in the Le Mans Hypercar project”, explained Amato Ferrari, founder and Team Principal of AF Corse.
