IRVING, Texas, March 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sow Good Inc. (Nasdaq: SOWG) (“Sow Good” or “the Company”), a trailblazer in the freeze-dried dried candy and treat industry, is reporting financial and operating results for fourth quarter and the full year ended December 31, 2024.
"2024 was a pivotal year for Sow Good," said CEO Claudia Goldfarb. "Building an entirely new category from the ground up presents its fair share of challenges, and as with many entrepreneurial, innovation-driven companies, we faced the inevitable growing pains of introducing a truly unique offering to the market.
"Among the most pressing challenges we encountered were product integrity issues, particularly around melting, and intensifying competitive pressures. We’ve responded to the first by enhancing our packaging to improve product resilience, and by implementing temperature-controlled shipping where needed to ensure quality. As competition grew, particularly with major global candy companies entering the freeze-dried candy space, we adapted by expanding our retail footprint, opening new doors, and reinforcing our presence in key markets. At the same time, we remain focused on innovation, continuously evolving our product portfolio to keep it fresh, exciting, and aligned with consumer demand.
"At our core, Sow Good is a company of innovators and food production experts, and we are leveraging that expertise to diversify into adjacent categories with strong growth potential, such as jerky and yogurt melts, which are set to launch in the second half of this year. As we begin to see sales recover, our strategic priorities are clear: drive candy distribution, optimize manufacturing efficiency, reduce costs, and launch new product lines that resonate with consumers. These efforts are integral to our long-term strategy, and we are confident that they will position us to drive sustainable growth and deliver long-term value to our shareholders."
Fourth Quarter 2024 Highlights vs. Same Year-Ago Quarter
- Revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 was
$1.4 million compared to$9.5 million for the same period in 2023. The decrease was largely due to increased competitive pressure and the spillover effect from product shipment pauses in the third quarter of 2024 due to quality concerns amid extreme summer heat, as well as increased promotional activity and customer allowances.
- Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2024 was a loss of (
$1.2) million compared to gross profit of$3.4 million in the previous year’s quarter. Gross margin was (88)% in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to36% in the prior year period. The decline was primarily due to an approximate$1.7 million inventory reserve expense taken during the quarter as well as higher costs related to the company’s new facility and the impact of lower sales. Excluding this reserve, gross profit was$0.4 million representing a gross margin of roughly31.8% .
- Operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2024 were
$2.9 million compared to$1.6 million for the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily due to an increase in share compensation expense related to the amortization of performance options granted in December 2023, and other operating expense increase related to the Company's rapid growth.
- GAAP net loss for the quarter of 2024 was
$4.2 million , or$(0.40) per diluted share, compared to net income of$1.3 million , or$0.26 per diluted share, for the same period in 2023. The decline reflects the lower level of gross profit and higher operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2024.
- Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure defined and reconciled herein) for the fourth quarter was
$(2.8) million compared to income of$2.3 million for the same period in 2023. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the nearest comparable GAAP metric, net income, please see the tables below.
Year to Date 2024 Highlights
- Revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, increased significantly to
$32.0 million compared to$16.1 million in 2023. The increase primarily reflects the Company’s transition to selling freeze dried candy in the first quarter of 2023, the growing market for freeze dried candy and its expanded production capacity after adding three new freeze driers in 2024 and addition of new retail customers.
- Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2024, increased significantly to
$13.0 million compared to$3.3 million in 2023. Gross margin was41% compared to20% in 2023. The increase was primarily due to the strong revenue growth.
- Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024, were
$14.5 million compared to$4.5 million in 2023. The increase was primarily due to the strong revenue growth.
- Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2024, was
$3.7 million , or$(0.40) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of$3.1 million , or$(0.59) per diluted share, in 2023.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains “non-GAAP financial measures” that are financial measures that either exclude or include amounts that are not excluded or included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Specifically, we make use of the non-GAAP financial measure “Adjusted EBITDA.” Adjusted EBITDA has been presented in this prospectus as a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss before depreciation, interest expense, net and income tax benefit, adjusted to eliminate non-cash intangible asset impairment, goodwill impairment, inventory write-down and stock-based compensation. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss. Adjusted EBITDA is not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as a measure of financial performance or cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future, we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA. The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company.
We present this non-GAAP measure because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in highlighting trends in our operating performance, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, and capital investments. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to supplement GAAP measures of performance in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to establish discretionary annual incentive compensation, and to compare our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. Management supplements GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone provide.
There are a number of limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA rather than net loss, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
- Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation expense as it has recently been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring non-cash expense for our business;
- Adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization expense and, although this is a non-cash expense, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the cash requirements necessary to service interest on our debt which affects the cash available to us;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the monies earned from our investments since it does not reflect our core operations;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect change in fair value of financial instruments since it does not reflect our core operations and is a non-cash expense;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect income tax expense that affects cash available to us; and
- the expenses and other items that we exclude in our calculations of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from the expenses and other items, if any, that other companies may exclude from Adjusted EBITDA when they report their operating results.
In addition, other companies may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison.
