Scott’s Liquid Gold-Inc. Reports Second Quarter Results

Second Quarter 2021 Results:

  • Net sales of $8.4 million vs. $6.1 million in 2020
  • Net loss of $1.1 million (($0.08) per share) driven by restructuring costs of $0.8 million and COVID-related supply chain impacts
  • Net cash used in operating activities of $1.0 million vs. net cash from operating activities of $5.1 million in 2020

 

Scott’s Liquid Gold-Inc. (OTC: SLGD) today announced operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

“This is a transition year for Scott’s, and we continue to review all aspects of our business with an eye towards growth and profitability,” said Tisha Pedrazzini, Interim Co-President of Scott’s Liquid Gold. "We have identified several key brands that we aim to accelerate via new consumer messaging, brand packaging, and go-to-market strategies. Our portfolio is filled with products that consumers love, as evidenced by best-in-class ratings and reviews. We are working to drive increased awareness of these brands with new digital, social, and grassroots campaigns this fall.”

“While logistics and supply chain challenges impacted sales in the second quarter, we have rebuilt inventory and are back in stock on all major products,” said Kevin Paprzycki, Scott’s CFO and Interim Co-President. “We are taking actions to improve our profitability by reducing selling costs, reducing G&A expenses, and improving working capital efficiency, which we believe will start to be reflected in our financial results in the second half of the year. Given the inflationary backdrop, we have fine-tuned pricing and continue to work to be an efficient and easy partner with which to do business.”

Second Quarter Financial Results

In the second quarter of 2021, net sales increased 38% to $8.4 million compared to $6.1 million in the same period in 2020. The growth was driven by the BIZ and Dryel brands, which were acquired in July 2020, and by a rebound in Batiste sales in 2021, where the second quarter of 2020 was unfavorably impacted by COVID-19. Sales in the second quarter of 2021 were affected by supply chain shortages of cans, components, and other raw materials, particularly with our Scott’s Liquid Gold brand.

Our net loss of $1.1 million was primarily driven by one-time restructuring charges of $0.8 million from severance payments. In addition, our operating results were also affected by supply chain shortages of certain key products including our Scott’s Liquid Gold brand. We are also experiencing increases in costs of our products and logistics-related expenses, primarily driven by COVID-related supply chain disruptions and product delays.

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This news release may contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws that are intended to qualify for the Safe Harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. "Forward-looking statements" generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "assumptions," "target," "guidance," “strategy,” "outlook," "plans," "projection," "may," "will," "would," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "believe”, "potential," or "continue" (or the negative or other derivatives of each of these terms) or similar terminology.

Forward-looking statements convey our expectations, intentions, or forecasts about future events, circumstances, or results. All forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which may change over time and many of which are beyond our control. You should not rely on any forward-looking statement as a prediction or guarantee about the future. Actual future objectives, strategies, plans, prospects, performance, conditions, or results may differ materially from those set forth in any forward-looking statement. Some of the factors that may cause actual results or other future events or circumstances to differ from those in forward-looking statements are described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the Company's subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf speaks only as of the date that it was made. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the impact of events, circumstances, or results that arise after the date that the statement was made, except as required by applicable securities laws. You, however, should consult further disclosures (including disclosures of a forward-looking nature) that we may make in any subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
