  • $1.5 Million Adjusted EBITDA for Second Quarter

HENDERSON, NV / February 15, 2021 / Grove, Inc. (NASDAQ:GRVI) (“Grove” or the “Company”), a global innovator in hemp, health, and wellness, today announced financial results for the second quarter period ended December 31, 2021.  Investors are encouraged to read the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q which will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), contains additional information, and will be posted at https://groveinc.io/.

Year to Date Financial Highlights

  • Revenues rose to $19.1 million from $7.1 million, a 167% increase.
  • $0.04 basic earnings per share compared to loss of $0.06.
  • $2.9 million in adjusted EBITDA.
  • 103,750 shares of Grove common stock repurchased with cash flow from operations.

Allan Marshall, Chief Executive Officer of Grove, stated, “Our team continues to perform and drive growth across all parts of our business, with a 169% increase year over year even with substantial headwinds.  We face shortages and rising prices on all raw materials, employee shortages, higher wages, drastic increases in shipping cost across all parts of the business. However, we were able to maintain growth and profits offsetting increased costs with higher volumes and pricing power.

Our Upexi Amazon aggregation business launch is beginning to come together, and we are seeing multiple submissions a week from companies looking to be acquired. Our strong cash flow gives us great flexibility to expand the Brand aggregation business and become more active with acquisitions this year”

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains statements that constitute “forward-looking statements,” including with respect to the Company’s business strategy, product development and industry trends. No assurance can be given that the offering will be completed on the terms described, or at all. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous conditions, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, including those set forth in the Risk Factors section of the Company’s registration statement and preliminary prospectus for the offering filed with the SEC. Copies are available on the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov. The Company undertakes no obligation to update these statements for revisions or changes after the date of this release, except as required by law.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company discloses and uses the above-mentioned non-GAAP financial measures internally as a supplement to GAAP financial information to evaluate its operating performance, for financial planning purposes, to establish operational goals, for compensation plans, to measure debt service capability, for capital expenditure planning and to determine working capital needs and believes that these are useful financial measures also used by investors. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income or net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) adjusted for the non-cash stock compensation and stock option expense, acquisition, integration & restructuring expenses, charges and gains or losses from extinguishment of debt and other non-cash items. Non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA are not terms defined by GAAP and, as a result, the Company’s measure of non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flow that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures discussed above, however, should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to net income or net loss as reported for GAAP on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, cash and cash flows on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, and as reflected on the Company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for or presented in lieu of financial measures provided by GAAP and all measures and disclosures of financial information pursuant to GAAP should be read to obtain a comprehensive and thorough understanding of the Company’s financial results. The reconciliations of non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA to GAAP operating income (loss) and/or GAAP net income (net loss) referred to in the highlights or elsewhere are provided in the schedules that are a part of this document.
