Edible Garden reported a 27.6% year-over-year revenue growth for Q1 2024, totaling $3.1 million. This growth is attributed to high customer demand and product line expansion.
Notably, the company’s gross profit surged by 195.8%, driven by a strategic pivot away from third-party growers, resulting in a 171 basis point increase in gross margin. Approximately 95% of Edible Garden’s fresh product line is now produced at company-owned facilities.
Despite these positive trends, the company experienced a net loss of $4.0 million for Q1 2024, compared to a $2.9 million loss in Q1 2023, due to higher SG&A expenses. Edible Garden aims to boost margins and reduce SG&A costs in future quarters.
The company also secured a significant three-year contract with a leading U.S. food retailer, expected to generate $18-$20 million in revenue. Additional distribution partnerships and product line expansions are also underway.
