Insights

22nd Century Group's Q2 2024 results show mixed signals. Revenue increased 22.8% sequentially to $7.9 million, driven by new CMO opportunities and seasonal demand. The company achieved positive gross profit of $0.6 million, a significant improvement from Q1's loss. Operating loss decreased by 53.8% to $2.0 million, indicating better cost management.

However, challenges persist. VLN® cigarette revenues were negligible, suggesting poor market traction. The company's path to cash-positive operations by Q1 2025 seems ambitious given current burn rates. While debt reduction of $6.3 million year-to-date is positive, the company's financial position remains precarious.

Investors should monitor the success of new CMO contracts and the planned VLN® rebranding efforts closely, as these will be critical for achieving profitability.

The tobacco industry landscape is shifting and 22nd Century's results reflect these changes. The company's pivot towards higher-margin cigarette manufacturing agreements is strategic, but execution risks remain. The 8% year-over-year increase in cigarette revenues is encouraging, especially given the industry's overall decline.

The negligible VLN® sales are concerning, indicating potential issues with consumer acceptance or marketing effectiveness. The planned rebranding could be important for product viability. The expansion of Pinnacle branded products to a top-five national convenience store chain is a positive development, potentially opening new revenue streams.

Market dynamics favor reduced nicotine products, aligning with 22nd Century's offerings. However, the company must overcome significant hurdles in consumer education and adoption to capitalize on this trend.

From a legal perspective, 22nd Century's focus on contract manufacturing and reduced-nicotine products positions it well in the evolving regulatory landscape. The FDA's potential mandate for reduced-nicotine cigarettes could significantly benefit the company, given its proprietary technology.

However, the rebranding of VLN® products warrants careful scrutiny to ensure compliance with FDA marketing regulations for modified risk tobacco products. Any missteps could lead to regulatory action. The expansion into cigarillo distribution also introduces new regulatory considerations, as different tobacco products face varying legal requirements.

Investors should monitor ongoing legal developments in tobacco regulation, particularly regarding nicotine levels and modified risk claims, as these could materially impact 22nd Century's market position and growth potential.

Path to Cash Positive Operations in Q1 2025; Continued Fiscal Discipline with 2Q24 Financial Results; Reduced Net Debt by ~$6.3 Million Year-to-Date

Mocksville, North Carolina--(Newsfile Corp. - August 13, 2024) - 22nd Century Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: XXII) today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, and provided an update on recent business highlights.

Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results (compared to First Quarter 2024, except as noted)

All figures reported below reflect continuing operations, excluding discontinued operations related to the sale and exit of the Company's hemp/cannabis franchise in late 2023.

  • Net revenues increased sequentially by 22.8% to $7.9 million, compared to $6.5 million.

  • Gross profit was $0.6 million, compared to $(1.1) million.

  • Operating loss declined 53.8% to $2.0 million, compared to $4.4 million.

  • Net loss decreased 61.4% to $2.2 million, compared to $5.5 million.

  • Basic and diluted EPS improved to $(0.30), compared to $($1.72).

  • Adjusted EBITDA declined to a loss of $2.6 million, from a loss of $3.5 million.

"The second quarter financial results demonstrate our ongoing progress in the rapid transformation of 22nd Century's operations, including improved revenues based on many new CMO opportunities, positive gross profit, and significantly reduced operating expenses for our Company," said Larry Firestone, Chairman and CEO. "Our revenue growth from new contract volumes we have secured will continue to ramp in the latter half of fiscal 2024 as we work to achieve cash positive operations by the first quarter of 2025. Additionally, our emphasis on debt reduction and improvements to the balance sheet have allowed us to focus our cash resources on operating the business."

Second Quarter 2024 - Discussion of Product Line Net Revenues

  • Cigarette net revenues, including export volume, increased to $4.1 million or 8% compared to $3.8 million in the prior year comparable period on neutral volume increases. Q2 2024 cigarette sales benefitted from strong summer seasonal demand with key customers, price increases that took effect in April 2024 and a one-time Spectrum® research cigarette order which provided a $0.9 million boost.

  • Filtered cigars net revenues decreased to $3.3 million, compared to $3.9 million in the prior year comparable period, reflecting lower volumes as the Company continues to transition away from low or negative margin manufacturing agreements, in favor of higher margin cigarette manufacturing agreements. Additionally, price increases for certain customers took effect in April 2024.

  • Cigarillo distribution net revenues amounted to $0.6 million, reflective of the expanded Pinnacle branded product offerings launched in Q2 2024 with a top-five national convenience store chain.

  • VLN® cigarette net revenues were negligible in the second quarter, a decrease from the comparable prior year period which benefited from stocking orders with major c-stores. While the Company has secured broad distribution of its VLN® products, the sell-through has not yet materialized. The Company is making changes to rebrand and relaunch its VLN® products, which will be discussed further on the conference call noted below.

Conference Call

22nd Century will host a live webcast today at 8:00 a.m. E.T. to discuss its second quarter 2024 financial results and business highlights. The live and archived webcast will be accessible in the Events section on 22nd Century's Investor Relations website at https://ir.xxiicentury.com/events.

Notes regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to the Company's reported results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), the Company provides EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.

In order to calculate EBITDA, the Company adjusts net (loss) income by adding back interest expense (income), provision (benefit) for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA adjusted by the Company for certain non-cash and/or non-operating expenses, including adding back equity-based employee compensation expense, restructuring and restructuring-related charges such as impairment, acquisition and transaction costs, and other unusual or infrequently occurring items, if applicable, such as inventory reserves and adjustments, gains or losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment, and gains or losses on investments.

The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are important financial measures that supplement discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations and enhances an understanding of its operating performance. While management considers EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be important, these financial performance measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as operating (loss) income, net (loss) income and cash flows from operations. Adjusted EBITDA is susceptible to varying calculations and the Company's measurement of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to those of other companies.

Net total debt is calculated as total principal amount of debt outstanding less cash and cash equivalents. In addition to the performance measures identified above, we believe that net total debt provides a meaningful measure of liquidity and a useful basis for assessing our ability to fund our activities, including the financing of scheduled debt repayments.
