FitLife Brands Announces First Quarter 2020 Results
OMAHA,
NE – May 15, 2020 -- FitLife Brands, Inc.
(“FitLife” or the “Company”) (OTC Pink:
FTLF), an international provider of innovative and proprietary
nutritional supplements for health-conscious consumers marketed
under the brand names NDS Nutrition™, PMD®,
SirenLabs®, CoreActive®, Metis Nutrition™,
iSatori™, Energize, and BioGenetic Laboratories, today
announced results for the three months ended March 31,
2020.
Highlights for the quarter ended March 31, 2020
include:
●
Total revenue
increased 4.6% to $6.2 million.
●
Direct-to-consumer
online sales increased to 14% of total revenue, compared to 10% in
the same quarter last year.
●
Gross profit
improved 7.7% to $2.7 million.
●
Gross margin
increased to 44.5% compared to 43.2% in the same quarter last
year.
●
Net income
increased 20.3% to $1.4 million.
●
Net income per
share increased to $1.36 per share, or $1.27 per diluted share,
compared to $1.07 per share, or $0.94 per diluted share, in the
same quarter last year.
For the first quarter ended March 31, 2020, total revenue was $6.2
million versus $5.9 million in the same quarter last year, an
increase of 4.6%. The increase was primarily attributable to
continued growth in our online direct-to-consumer business. During
the first quarter of 2020, online sales accounted for approximately
14% of the Company’s revenue, compared to 10% during the
first quarter of 2019.
Gross profit improved to $2.7 million, an increase of 7.7% from the
first quarter of 2019. Gross margin improved from 43.2% to 44.5%
over the same time period. The improvement in gross margin was
driven by product mix and higher online sales volumes.
Total operating expenses increased 5.8% from $1.3 million to $1.4
million, driven by an increased investment in sales and
marketing.
Net income for the first quarter of 2020 was $1.4 million, an
increase of 20.3% over the same quarter in 2019. The Company
delivered basic earnings per share of $1.36 in the first quarter of
2020, compared to $1.07 in the same quarter last year. Diluted
earnings per share increased from $0.94 in the first quarter of
last year to $1.27 this year.
Dayton Judd, the Company’s Chairman and CEO, commented
“I am very pleased with the Company’s performance
during the first quarter, especially given the disruption that
began in mid-March due to the COVID-19 pandemic. That said, given
the uncertainty brought on by the current environment, I know our
stakeholders are more interested in how the business is performing
during the second quarter. Therefore, to be as transparent as
possible, the Company provides the following information, not
subject to any procedures by our Independent Registered Public
Accounting Firm, regarding its performance and position as of May
14, 2020.”
●
Total
accounts receivable outstanding is $1.1 million, of which
approximately 66% is due from GNC.
●
Most
of our customers continue to pay us timely in the ordinary course
of business. However, several customers owing a combined total of
$0.1 million are currently three or more weeks behind in making
payments, and roughly 30% of that amount has already been fully
reserved and is not included in the total accounts receivable
balance reported above.
●
The
Company repaid its line of credit in late April, and the full
balance of the $2.5 million facility is available to draw again in
the future as needed, subject to any borrowing base
limitations.
●
Total
cash on hand is $2.9 million.
●
The
Company continues to pay all of its vendors timely in the ordinary
course of business.
●
Thus
far during the second quarter, the Company’s
direct-to-consumer online revenue is pacing roughly 100% higher
than online revenue during the same time period last
year.
●
Retail
sales of the Company’s products through GNC franchise
locations experienced a year-over-year decline of 50-55% during
late March and early April, but have been improving consistently
each week since then, with recent declines in the 10-20% range
relative to the same time period last year.
●
The
Company generated no revenue from GNC during April, as the
warehouses and the franchisees worked through existing
inventory.
●
Beginning
in the first half of May, the Company received orders from and has
begun shipping products to GNC. Nevertheless, the Company
anticipates that its revenue from GNC will be materially lower
during the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same quarter last
year.
●
Due
to cost-cutting efforts, the Company anticipates that operating
expense for the second quarter of 2020 will be at least 7-10% lower
than the first quarter of 2020.
Mr. Judd continued, “While much uncertainty remains, I am
pleased with how our team is navigating this pandemic. The Company
will provide additional updates as warranted.”
