Eightco announced its Q1 2024 financial results, highlighting a significant turnaround with a net income of $4.9 million compared to a net loss of $49.9 million in Q1 2023. The improvement was attributed to better operating performance and the elimination of warrant losses following the repayment of a restrictive convertible note.
Revenues for the quarter stood at $9.6 million, down from $15.9 million the previous year, mainly due to reduced capital available for cell phone sales. Despite the revenue drop, gross profit rose slightly to $1.9 million, with an improved gross profit margin of 19.6%.
The company reduced selling, general, and administrative expenses by 35%, leading to a positive EBITDA of $3.7 million, up from a loss of $46.4 million in Q1 2023. Adjusted EBITDA also improved, showing a smaller loss of $0.8 million compared to a $2.9 million loss in the prior year quarter.
CEO Paul Vassilakos emphasized the focus on their Forever 8 Fund operations, which provide inventory capital for e-commerce and refurbished Apple product sellers. The repayment of the convertible note was a strategic move to ensure future growth, although it temporarily reduced their capital base by $5.4 million.
