Company reports revenues of $17.9 million, a 13% year-over-year increase

IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 19, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ToughBuilt Industries, Inc. (“ToughBuilt”) (NASDAQ: TBLT; TBLTW), today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022. The Company will discuss the results, and a business update, during the Company’s earnings conference call scheduled for 5:00 p.m. (ET) today.

Second Quarter 2002 and Subsequent Financial Highlights:

  • Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022, were approximately $17.9 million, an increase of 12.8% compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in revenue was primarily the result of expanded acceptance of ToughBuilt products. This was a result of recurring orders from existing customers and addition of new customers and new product launches.
  • Operating expenses were approximately $17.3 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to approximately $10.7 million in the second quarter of 2021. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to increased shipping costs, headcount, marketing, and advertising, as well as fees related to product research and development.
  • However, compared to Q1 2022, Q2 2022 expenses decreased from $18.5 million to $17.2 million as a result of our operational cost cutting efforts, reduction in shipping costs and slowdown in hiring and general expenditure.
  • Net loss attributable to common stockholders in the second quarter of 2022 was approximately $12.1 million, or $9.45 per share, compared to a net loss of approximately $7.4 million, or $13.64 per share in the second quarter of 2021.
  • Closed $20 million Private Placement priced at a premium to market.
  • Reported $3.56 million in Q2 2022 sales through Amazon.

Michael Panosian, ToughBuilt’s CEO, commented, “The second quarter of 2022 saw sales growth of 13% over the same period last year. We remain focused on expanding the national and global distribution of our product lines and have already seen validating success through partnerships with leading retailers. This expansion of distribution and participating in multiple categories is and will increase revenue to help us reach profitability in 2023.” Panosian continued, “ToughBuilt remains on track to accelerate growth in the second half of the year with the launch of five to ten new product lines and plans to continue to leverage new and existing partnerships. As a result of this initiatives, combined with our cost cutting efforts, we expect to grow approximately 25% in 2022 and are targeting profitability in 2023.”

Second Quarter 2022 Business Highlights:

  • Second quarter 2022 Amazon.com gross sales increased by 41% to approximately $3.54 million, compared to approximately $2.4 million for the second quarter of 2021.
