Overview of Results for Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022:

Net Sales: Total net sales for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, were $4,681,302 and $13,196,113, respectively, and increased $469,175 (11.1%) and $1,210,809 (10.1%), respectively, versus the same periods in 2021.

Prescription sales were $3,873,323 and $10,676,238 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, an increase of $232,227 (6.4%) and $546,034 (5.3%), respectively, compared with the same periods in 2021. The increase in prescription sales was due to an increase in partner services revenue from new and existing customers, offset by a reduction in the Company’s traditional B-2-C revenues.

Sales of over-the-counter products were $736,265 and $2,232,934 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, an increase of $232,737 (46.2%) and $595,196 (36.3%), respectively, over the same periods in 2021.

Gross Profit: Gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, was $3,161,968 and $8,906,432, respectively, representing increases of $289,260 (10.1%) and $649,586 (7.9%), respectively, compared with the same periods in 2021. The increases were the result of higher sales volume, somewhat offset by lower margins on our over-the-counter and partner services businesses. The gross margin percentage was 67.5% for both the three- and nine-months periods ended September 30, 2022. Those margins were 0.7 and 1.4 percentage points lower, respectively, versus prior-year periods.

Operating Expenses: Selling, general and administrative expenses were $3,346,698 and $9,514,046 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, an increase of $336,639 (11.2%) and $893,889 (10.3%), respectively, compared to the same periods in 2021. Expense increases for salaries, shipping and supplies, software, computer hardware, and stock-based compensation were principal factors.

Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA: The Company reported net losses of $225,614 and $733,125 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, compared with net losses of $181,031 and $493,866, respectively, for the same periods in 2021.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), as adjusted for stock-based compensation and certain non-recurring charges (“Adjusted EBITDA”), were $47,673 for the three months and $90,890 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. That compares with Adjusted EBITDA of $89,797 and $301,548, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. 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.
