Cyanotech Reports Financial Results for the Second Quarter
and First Six Months of Fiscal Year 2016
KAILUA KONA, Hawaii (November 12, 2015) — Cyanotech Corporation (Nasdaq Capital Market: CYAN), a world leader in microalgae-based, high-value nutrition and health products, today announced financial results for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2016, ended September 30, 2015.
Second Quarter 2016
For the second quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2015, net sales were $8,516,000 compared to $7,946,000, an increase of 7%. Gross profit was $3,100,000, with gross profit margin of 36.4%, compared to gross profit of $3,935,000 and gross profit margin of 49.5%. Operating loss was ($139,000) compared to operating income of $195,000. Net income was $14,000 or $0.00 per diluted share, compared to net income of $63,000 or $0.01 per diluted share.
Commenting on the second quarter 2016 results (changes shown vs. second quarter 2015), Brent Bailey, Cyanotech President and CEO, noted:
“Net sales in our Nutrex packaged consumer products grew +19% versus prior year in spite of a significant decrease in Astaxanthin production compared to the second quarter of last year. Second quarter net sales growth of our Nutrex business, by channel, was:
|
|
~ Nutrex Mainland: |
+18% |
|
|
|
~ Nutrex Hawaii: |
-7% |
|
|
|
~ Nutrex International: |
+108% |
|
“The strong increase in Nutrex International is primarily due to initial shipments of BioAstin into China. The decline in Nutrex Hawaii is primarily due to a temporary product placement change in several retail outlets that has been corrected.”
“BioAstin brand retail market share of Astaxanthin in the US natural products channel was 59%. Our Nutrex brand market share of Spirulina was 50%.
“Progress on major strategic initiatives and investments is continuing :
|
● |
Based on the strong results to date, Costco management has approved expansion of BioAstin into the remaining 43 Los Angeles region warehouses in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, making it available in approximately 23% of Costco’s domestic warehouses. |
|
● |
The first phase of our Astaxanthin capacity expansion, which includes additional ponds, is projected to be completed by the end of November 2015. |
| ● | We recently received the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA) seal, which allows our BioAstin brand Astaxanthin to be imported into China. We believe BioAstin is the first astaxanthin consumer brand to receive the China Food and Drug Administration CFDA seal. |

“Although investments in these initiatives negatively impacted our profitability in the second quarter, they are expected to position us well for the future.”
“The decline in gross profit for the second quarter was primarily driven by the following factors:
|
● |
A 41% decrease in Astaxanthin production compared to exceptionally strong production during the same period last year. |
|
● |
Changes in customer mix during the period resulted in higher overall sales allowances that are not expected to continue at this level. |
|
● |
A longer than expected start-up of our extraction plant led to outside processing costs in the second quarter.”. |
