Sonoma Pharmaceuticals Reports Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

  • Cash burn of $717,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, 68% less than prior quarter cash burn of $2,235,000
  • Revenues for three and nine months ended December 31, 2022 essentially flat with strong performance in international sales
  • European revenues increased 51% for the quarter and 29% for the nine months ended December 31, 2022, compared to the same periods prior year

BOULDER, CO / ACCESSWIRE / February 14, 2023 / Sonoma Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:SNOA),a global healthcare leader developing and producing stabilized hypochlorous acid (HOCl) products for a wide range of applications, including wound care, eye care, nasal care, oral care and dermatological conditions, today announced financial results for its third fiscal quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2022.

"Our revenues remain strong despite overall economic trends such as inflation, and reduced consumer spending. These trends affected our U.S. business resulting in a decline in the sales of our consumer products. However, our international sales increased in the nine months ended December 31, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year, with the largest increases in Europe and Latin America. We continue to grow our distributor network, recently adding partners in the U.S. and in Asia, and expanding our product offerings in many regions. We expect our ongoing efforts to add distributors and introduce new products to result in meaningful impacts to future results," said Amy Trombly, CEO of Sonoma. She continued, "Our sharply reduced cash burn for the quarter, combined with $2.5 milllion raised since quarter end, places Sonoma in a solid position as we head toward the end of our fiscal year."

Business Highlights

Sonoma continued to expand its business by launching new products and building new partnerships while growing existing distributor relationships and seeking additional regulatory approvals:

  • On January 4, 2023, Sonoma launched a line of office dispense products exclusively for skin care professionals. These products include Regenacyn ® Plus Scar Management Hydrogel, Reliefacyn ® Plus Itch-Burn-Rash-Pain Relief Hydrogel, and Rejuvacyn ® Plus Skin Repair Cooling Mist, all in prescription strength formulations. Sonoma is targeting its office distribution program to dermatology practices and medical spas, offering improved outcomes, convenience, and lower healthcare costs for clients while providing an additional source of income for skin care professionals. Sonoma's office dispense products can be purchased by skin care professionals directly on our website at https://sonomapharma.com/skin-care-professionals .
  • In January 2023, Sonoma's Microcyn ® Rx products, including wound care, prescription dermatology products, Celacyn ® and Levicyn ® , and prescription eye care Acuicyn ® , received a Distribution and Pricing Agreement (DAPA) for distribution by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), enabling our partner, EMC Pharma, LLC to enter into distribution agreements for these products with federal customers.
  • On January 26, 2023, Sonoma entered into a new partnership with one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in South Korea, Daewoong Pharmaceuticals, for the exclusive distribution of Microcyn technology-based Primocyn TM Skin Solution.
  • In January 2023, Sonoma continued to expand its U.S. distributor network by partnering with Key Therapeutics, LLC, which will be introducing Sonoma's new line of pediatric care products to pediatricians in the United States.

Results for the Quarter Ended December 31, 2022

Revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 of $2.9 million increased slightly compared to the same period last year. European sales increased by 51%, reflecting an increase in demand for our wound care products as well as the introduction of several new products in Europe. Latin America revenue also increased compared to the same period last year. Decreased revenues in the United States were primarily the result of a decline in sales of our consumer-focused animal health care products as well as an overall retail market slowdown. The decrease in Rest of World revenue was due to decreased disinfectant sales in the Middle East that was partially offset by increased sales in India. The decrease in Asia revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2022 was due to timing of sales with Asian customers receiving higher values of sales earlier in the year compared to the third quarter. Sonoma's revenues tend to be choppy when viewed on a quarterly basis due to international customers placing larger but less frequent orders to benefit from quantity discounts and reduced shipping costs.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2022, Sonoma reported revenues of $2.9 million and cost of revenues of $2.1 million, resulting in gross profit of $0.8 million, or 28% of revenue, compared to a gross profit of $1.2 million, or 41% of revenue, for the same period last year. Gross margins decreased by 13% for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 when compared to the same period last year as a result of overall product mix, lower manufacturing levels and higher costs of materials and transportation.

Total operating expenses during the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 were $2.7 million, up $0.5 million, or 23%, when compared to $2.2 million during the same period in the prior year, as a result of closing down our Woodstock, GA facility and moving finance and operations staff to our Boulder, CO headquarters, as well as $350,000 of additional expenses for settling a long term contract, each of which management expects to be a one-time event. We continue to tightly manage expenses across all of our operations.

Net loss before income tax for the quarter was $1.9 million, compared to a net loss of $0.9 million for the same period last year. EBITDAS loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 of $1.6 million was higher by $0.7 million, compared to an EBITDAS loss of $0.9 million for the same period last year.

Results for the Nine Months Ended December 31, 2022

Revenues of $10.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 were essentially flat compared to the same period last year. Revenues increased in Europe, Asia, and Latin America. Decreased sales in the United States were due to the conversion of our prescription dermatology business to a distribution model and a decline in sales of our consumer-focused animal health care products as well as an overall retail market slowdown. The decrease in Rest of World revenue was due to decreased disinfectant sales in the Middle East that was partially offset by increased sales in India.

For the nine months ended December 31, 2022, Sonoma reported revenues of $10.3 million and cost of revenues of $6.6 million, resulting in gross profit of $3.6 million, or 35% of revenues, compared to a gross profit of $3.9 million or 38% or revenues in the same period last year. The decrease in gross profit margin for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 was primarily due to product mix and higher costs of materials and transportation.

Total operating expenses during the nine months ended December 31, 2022 of $7.0 million increased by $0.3 million, or 4%, compared to $6.7 million during the same period last year due to $350,000 of additional expenses for settling a long term contract and some increased expenses related to closing the Woodstock, GA office, each of which management expects to be a one-time event.

Net loss before taxes for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 was $3.7 million, compared to a net loss before taxes of $2.1 million for the same period in prior year. EBITDAS loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 of $2.8 million was higher by $0.3 million, compared to an EBITDAS loss of $2.5 million for the same period last year.
