Overview of Results for Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021:

Net Sales: Total net sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, were $4,212,127 and $11,985,304, respectively, an increase of $207,665 (5.2%) and a decrease of $1,103,940 (8.4%), respectively, versus the same periods in 2020. Prescription sales were $3,641,097 and $10,130,203 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, which were increases of $417,732 (13.0%) and $112,152 (1.1%), respectively, compared with the same periods in 2020. The increase in prescription sales was due to growth in both the B2C and fulfillment businesses.

Sales of over-the-counter products were $503,528 and $1,637,738 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, which were decreases of $186,036 (27.0%) and $1,089,644 (40.0%), respectively, over the same periods in 2020. The decline in over-the-counter sales was due to decreased website traffic and consumer demand, compared with unprecedented levels of demand during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.

Gross Profit: Gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $2,872,707 and $8,256,846, respectively, resulting in an increase of $111,548 and a decrease of $377,080, respectively, compared with the same periods of 2020. The increase for the three-month period was due to increased sales volume and improved costs resulting from purchasing initiatives with our vendors, while the decrease for the nine-month period was the result of lower sales volume. Gross margin percentages were 68.2% and 68.9% for the three and nine-months periods ended September 30, 2021, respectively, which were a decrease of 0.8 and an increase of 2.9 percentage points, respectively.

Operating Expenses: Selling, general and administrative expenses were $3,010,060 and $8,620,158 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, an increase of $278,739 (10.2%) and a decrease of $31,187 (0.4%), respectively, compared to the same periods of 2020. The increase for the three-month period was primarily from higher engineering and marketing salaries, stock-based compensation, advertising and marketing, and accounting and corporate tax expenses. The decrease for the nine-month period was primarily from lower variable expenses, including advertising, marketing, shipping, supplies, and payment processing expenses.

Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA: The Company reported net losses of $181,031 and $493,866 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared with net losses of $15,692 and $177,420, respectively, for the same periods in 2020.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), as adjusted for stock-based compensation and certain non-recurring charges (“Adjusted EBITDA”), were $89,797 for the three months and $301,548 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. That compares with Adjusted EBITDA of $188,632 and $450,680, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Definitions of these non-GAAP terms and a reconciliation to GAAP measures are provided below.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

HealthWarehouse.com, Inc. (the "Company") prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with the United States’ Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). In addition to disclosing financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, the Company discloses information regarding EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are commonly used. In addition to adjusting net income or net loss to exclude interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA also excludes stock-based compensation, and certain nonrecurring charges. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of performance defined in accordance with GAAP. However, Adjusted EBITDA is used internally in planning and evaluating the Company's performance. Accordingly, management believes that disclosure of this metric offers lenders and other shareholders an additional view of the Company's operations that, when coupled with GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of the Company's financial results.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income, net loss or to net cash provided by or used in operating activities as a measure of operating results or of liquidity. It may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, and it excludes financial information that some may consider important in evaluating the Company's performance.
