MONTREAL, Nov. 23,
2022 /CNW/ - The Good Shroom Co Inc. (the
"Company") (TSXV: MUSH), discusses financial &
operational highlights for the fiscal year ended July 31 2022.
The Company's CEO Mr. Eric Ronsse
encourages readers to read the entire release and to contact him
afterwards for questions/comments or refer to the Management
Discussion & Analysis.
- The Company recorded $1,522,134
in sales revenue. Over 6X growth from the previous year.
-
- The majority of this revenue was made in the last 6 months of
the fiscal year from its cannabis operations and the rest from its
functional mushroom beverages. This was the Company's first fully
operational year with its cannabis division beginning sales only as
of December 25, 2021.
- Gross profit margins were of $228,638.
-
- Cannabis product gross margins vary depending on the product.
Its important to note the Company has negotiated favourable payment
terms that do not hinder cash flow. It is actively working to
increase margins.
- Non-cannabis product gross margins are higher than cannabis
products. The proportion of Teonan sales to total sales in the
upcoming year is expected to be more than this year.
- No debt obligations other than $40,000 due December
2023 to the government of Canada.
- Operating cash loss was of $777,776.
An IMPORTANT NOTE on the operating
cash loss;
A significant portion of this cash loss is due to the capital
investment incurred during the year to setup up its US distribution
network for its mushroom beverages. As a result the Company's
products are now available through America's 2 largest grocery
distributors, KEHE and United Natural Foods, as of late Q3 fiscal
year 2022. A significant portion of this investment is not
re-occurring now that the setup is complete.
Another portion of this loss is due to the labour cost. In June
and July 2022 the Company underwent
an operational restructuring whereby it reduced its labour cost by
approximately 34%. The restructuring is not expected to impede the
Company's growth.
The Company's CEO Eric
Ronsse stated "With the current sales revenue we
are a small company but our foundation is set and the potential to
scale profitably is attainable in the medium term. I believe todays
bear market will make it difficult for company's incapable of
properly managing cash flow to effectively grow and maintain
shareholder value. Our financial discipline is being tested and I
expect the results to cement The Good Shroom Co as a force in our
industries. Fiscal year 2023 quarterly results should begin
reflecting the type of company we have the potential to
become."
About the Company
MUSH operates a portfolio of brands which include traditional
cannabis and beverage products. It exists to promote the use of
functional ingredients such as probiotics and functional mushrooms
in consumer products. Its line of Teonan beverages are first a
quality and tasty beverage but also contain a dose of functional
mushrooms and probiotics.
We all have a daily routine; be it coffee, tea or another. Why
not make that routine functional for body and mind by adding
probiotics and mushrooms to it? Up to now no company has been able
to maintain a familiar taste at a fair price while making them
truly functional. The Good Shroom Co has bridged that gap and
intends on making its brands household names for making it a part
of its customers daily routine.
