Mr. Ellery W. Roberts, CEO of 1847 Holdings, commented, "We made significant progress this past year as evidenced by a 59.6% increase in revenue for 2022. Based on our current trajectory, we now expect to generate revenue in excess of $90 million for 2023. In addition, we have a robust acquisition pipeline, targeting accretive and cash-flow positive companies that we believe we can acquire at attractive multiples, with minimum dilution to shareholders. As an example, we recently acquired ICU Eyewear, a highly profitable business, for under three times EBITDA."

"The growth of our portfolio companies has been more rapid than we anticipated. In response, we committed additional resources to support their working capital needs. Although these investments temporarily suppressed our earnings, prompting us to defer dividends, we made the right long-term decision, as evidenced by our strong financial performance heading into the new year. Overall, we have built a highly scalable business model that we believe will enable us to internally fund growth, while generating substantial and sustainable returns for our shareholders," concluded Mr. Roberts.

About 1847 Holdings LLC

1847 Holdings LLC (NYSE American:EFSH), a publicly traded diversified acquisition holding company, was founded by Ellery W. Roberts, a former partner of Parallel Investment Partners, Saunders Karp & Megrue, and Principal of Lazard Freres Strategic Realty Investors. 1847 Holdings' investment thesis is that capital market inefficiencies have left the founders and/or stakeholders of many small business enterprises or lower-middle market businesses with limited exit options despite the intrinsic value of their business. Given this dynamic, 1847 Holdings can consistently acquire businesses it views as "solid" for reasonable multiples of cash flow and then deploy resources to strengthen the infrastructure and systems of those businesses in order to improve operations. These improvements may lead to a sale or IPO of an operating subsidiary at higher valuations than the purchase price and/or alternatively, an operating subsidiary may be held in perpetuity and contribute to 1847 Holdings' ability to pay regular and special dividends to shareholders.
