Vancouver, BCgoodnatured Products Inc. (TSX-V:GDNP) (the “Company” or “good naturedTM”), formerly Solegear Bioplastic Technologies Inc., today announced its financial results for the three months (“Q2 FY18”) and six months (“YTD”) ended August 31, 2017. These are the first results released under the Company’s new name and stock symbol, which will be in full effect at the opening of the TSX Venture Exchange on October 31, 2017.

Key Highlights:

  • Q2 FY18 and YTD revenues increased by 46% and 49% to $807,214 and $1,477,746 compared to $553,482 and $991,149 for the three and six months ended August 31, 2016. Growth has been driven by double-digit new customer acquisitions, expanded revenue per customer through cross-selling opportunities and revenues by way of the acquisition of LINDAR Corp.’s bioplastics division.
  • Gross margins for Q2 FY18 and YTD of 32% and 33% were consistent with the 32% recorded for both the three and six months ended August 31, 2016. Minor fluctuations in gross margins are expected across financial quarters based on short-term variations in product and market segment revenue mix.
  • Q2 FY18 & YTD total expenditures decreased by 3.8% and 0.5% compared to the three and six months ended August 31, 2016.
  • Q2 FY18 & YTD SG&A expenditures increased by 11.1% and 4.5% compared to the three and six months ended August 31, 2016. This increased in direct correlation to sales growth and variable costs pursuant to the Company’s outsourced supply chain and fulfillment agreements. SG&A expenditures, minus these variable outsourced supply chain & fulfillment costs, decreased 6.5% and 7.4% compared to the three and six months ended August 31, 2016.
  • The Company reported a reduction in net losses before other items in Q2 FY18 and YTD of $803,646 and $1,558,306 compared to $909,141 and $1,721,272 for the three and six months ended August 31, 2016.
  • Q2 FY18 & YTD net losses before depreciation were $682,754 and $1,290,234 compared to $810,988 and $1,619,290 for the three months ended August 31, 2016, an improvement of 15.8% and 20.3%.
  • The Company had cash reserves of $1,335,832 on August 31, 2017 compared to $604,916 on August 31, 2016.
