NEW YORK, NY, Feb. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire – SNAKES & LATTES INC. (OTC: FUNN) published financials results for the quarter ending December 31, 2023.
The following update provides a brief summary to shareholders and the investment community.
Business Highlights (All numbers in USD):
- Gross Revenue of $2,293,505 USD (Slight increase YoY Quarterly)
- Gross Profit of $1,740,957 USD (Slight increase YoY Quarterly)
- FY2024 cumulative revenue $4,309,325 (Slight increase YoY cumulative)
- Common Stock Outstanding of 795,493,000 (unchanged)
- COGS are on target hitting just below 25%. The Company wants to maintain this as this is appreciable given COGS are decreasing while revenues are increasing
- Account Receivable grew from ~$113,000 to ~$132,000 reflecting healthy activity of Corporate Events over the holidays (B to B activity)
- The Company beat the previous FY Q2 by 15% on Hospitality revenues (location growth)
- Cash on hand at the end of the quarter slightly decreased to $64,432 with total assets of $3,716,681.
- No convertible debt instruments into future equity of the company were issued.
- Tradeable public float is 527,923,441, as of December 31st, 2023. (This is cumulative throughout the entire trading history dating back to 1985 with no recapitalizations or reverse splits throughout the entire, going on 39-year history of the Company.)
The Company is pleased with the growing revenue trend, and are on track for the company objective of $10 M+ USD in revenues for FY 2024 as we continue to strengthen our corporate level fiscal position. Hospitality revenue alone has been on a solid overall positive growth trend for the last 10 quarters since emerging from the pandemic.
Over the past year, the Company has removed over $2 million in debt / liabilities from the books resulting in 5 convertible notes remaining. These remaining notes are all associated with the acquisition and renovation of the Snakes & Lattes Inc. Tucson location. All notes are at a fixed price much higher than current market trading prices. The oldest of those remaining notes was recently repurchased by the Company to avoid conversion and any dilution to shareholders. (Note: The note holders are friendly and supporters of the Company)
Dilution for any company is a concern, but the potential conversion rate had a significantly higher fixed conversion rate. This helps confirm to shareholders the stock is not seeing high dilution. There were no stock issuances in the quarter, or any convertible notes written to assure stockholders that preservation of shareholder value, combined with the growth of the underlying business is of utmost importance to the Company.
The Company has mostly used traditional financing to expand operations over the years. The most recent brick and mortar location, now known as Snakes & Lattes Inc., Virginia Beach was an almost all cash acquisition.
The previous quarter Q1 FY 24 was our best Q1 of all time (excluding logistics activities 2018-2019) with hospitality up 14% FY Q over Q. COGS went down 12% overall with the last rolling 4 quarters being our top 4 quarters for revenues.
Looking forward:
The Company looks forward to announcing future updates to the shareholders and investment community at large throughout calendar 2024 as we strive to capitalize on what we have built over the past years. The Company continues to grow revenues over time, and the trend is now years long. All key business indicators are positive growth oriented.
The Company hopes to capitalize on a number of growth initiatives in 2024 and beyond and will be excited to share news with everyone as milestones are crossed or pertinent information becomes available. There are always new avenues being explored and look forward to making some of them a reality.
As always, a big thanks to all our shareholders, supporters, loyal guests, and staff. Creating memorable, quality human interactive experiences is what keeps the company going, and at all times we keep the mission of Snakes & Lattes locations coast to coast at the forefront of our strategy.
See you at Snakes & Lattes!
