HOUSTON, TX, Aug. 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire – SMG Industries Inc. (“SMG” or the “Company”) (OTCQB: SMGI), a growth-oriented transportation services company specializing in the full-service logistics market, today reported financial results for its second quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2023.
Second Quarter 2023 Highlights (Financial Results Herein Exclude the Barnhart Acquisition Completed July 2023):
· Revenues increased approximately 21% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022;
· Gross Profit improved to $2.9 million, or 14% of sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to gross profit of $1.1 million, or 6% of sales, for the same period in 2022;
· Net loss improved to $1.8 million for the second quarter of 2023, compared to a net loss of $3.0 million for the same period in 2022;
· Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $1.6 million, or 8% of sales, for the second quarter of 2023 (see reconciliation table below), compared to $0.7 million, or 4% of sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2022;
· The Company completed the previously announced acquisition of the Barnhart Transportation family of companies on July 7, 2023 (the “Barnhart Acquisition”), creating a pro forma combined company with enhanced scale, better growth potential and an improved balance sheet.
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased to $21.8 million, an increase of approximately 21% from $18.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased to $42.7 million, an increase of approximately 25% from $34.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increases in sales in the second quarter of 2023 and six-month period ended June 30, 2023 were primarily driven by increased customer activity in the Company’s industrial transportation, heavy haul, and super heavy haul businesses.
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2023, was $2.9 million, compared to $1.1 million for the same period of 2022. Our gross profit margin was 14% during the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 6% for the same period of 2022. The improvement in gross margin is due to higher revenues as described above and increased customer pricing as compared to the results for the three months ended June 30, 2022.
“The Company experienced gross margin improvement during the second quarter of 2023 resulting from higher revenues and enhanced pricing,” said Tim Barnhart, CFO of SMG. Mr. Barnhart continued, “While the Company is proud of this execution and results in the second quarter of 2023, the business combination of SMG and the Barnhart Transportation family of companies that closed on July 7, 2023 was a transformative event that significantly increased the scale of the combined business. The Company will publish its pro forma financial results in conjunction with the audited financial information of the Barnhart Transportation family of companies, which is currently anticipated during September 2023.”
Bryan Barnhart, CEO of SMG stated, “This is an exciting time at SMG Industries, as the upcoming pro forma combined results, including Barnhart Acquisition, will illustrate improvements to SMG’s scale, growth potential and balance sheet. This transaction allows the combined businesses to be a one stop shop, full service logistics provider for our customers, delivering seamless logistics solutions spanning the globe. We believe the Company has significant opportunity for ‘customer cross-fertilization,’ increased utilization of our combined equipment fleets and opportunities to leverage the experience within our management team and board of directors.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This news release includes the non-GAAP financial measure Adjusted EBITDA, which the Company believes provides management, investors and creditors with a useful measure of the operational results of the Company’s business and increases the period-to-period comparability of such results. This non-GAAP measure is not a substitute for, or more meaningful than, net loss or any other measure prescribed by GAAP, and there are limitations to using non-GAAP measures. Certain items excluded from this non-GAAP measure are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital, tax structure and the historic costs of depreciable assets. Also, other companies in SMG’s industry may define this non‐GAAP measure differently than SMG does, and as a result, it may be difficult to use this non‐GAAP measure to compare the performance of those companies to SMG’s performance. Because of these limitations, this non-GAAP measure should not be considered a measure of the income generated by SMG’s business or discretionary cash available to it to invest in the growth of its business.
You can find the reconciliation of this non‐GAAP measure to the nearest comparable GAAP measure in the table below.
Adjusted EBITDA
SMG defines Adjusted EBITDA as net loss plus (i) depreciation, (ii) income taxes, (iii) interest expense, (iv) non-cash stock option expense, (v) non-cash stock option expense, (vi) transaction-related expenses, (vii) expenses for contract Chief Financial Officer consulting services and Chief Transition Officer services and (vii) discontinued operations costs.
