Second Quarter 2020 Financial Summary

  • Revenues for the second quarter of 2020 increased 244% to a record $6.6 million, compared to revenue of $1.9 million in the same quarter last year. Sequentially, this represents an increase of 199% when compared to revenues of $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2020. The increase in revenue was primarily due to a significant increase in personal protective equipment (PPE) sales by the Company’s Integra Pharma segment as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Gross profit in the second quarter of 2020 increased 72% to $2.0 million, or 30.4% of revenues, compared to gross profit of $1.2 million, or 60.7% of revenues, in the same quarter last year. The increase in gross profit was at lower margins, which was primarily due to lower-margin sales of PPE, such as N95 masks and sanitizers.
  • Operating expenses in the second quarter of 2020 were $2.5 million compared to $1.0 million in the same quarter last year. This increase is primarily due to non-cash stock-based compensation expenses.
  • Net loss in the second quarter of 2020 was $(0.5) million, or $(0.07) per basic and diluted share outstanding, compared to net income of $0.1 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share outstanding, in the same quarter last year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, increased 525% to $0.5 million, compared to $0.08 million in the same quarter last year.
  • Cash and cash equivalents were $4.2 million as of June 30, 2020, compared with $7.7 million as of March 31, 2020.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

This earnings release discusses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. These measurements are not recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before stock-based compensation expense and gain (loss) in equity investment. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented because we believe they provide additional useful information to investors due to the various noncash items during the period. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are: EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual commitments; EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on debt or cash income tax payments. Although depreciation and amortization are noncash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. Additionally, other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than Trxade Group, Inc. does, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. See also “Reconciliation of Net Income attributable to Trxade Group, Inc., to Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA”, below.
