CEO.CA Chairman's Briefing

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / April 2, 2024 / 1933 Industries Inc. (the "Company" or "1933 Industries") (CSE:TGIF)(OTCQB:TGIFF), a Nevada-focused cannabis cultivator and producer, is pleased to announce its unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended January 31, 2024 and 2023 ("Q2 2024"). All amounts expressed are in Canadian dollars.

The Company owns 91% of Alternative Medicine Association (AMA), the Company's cultivation and production subsidiary focused on the medical and adult-use cannabis market, and 100% of consumer-packaged goods manufacturer Infused MFG LLC (Infused). The Company's revenue is derived from wholesale cannabis sales in Nevada (AMA), and from the sale of hemp-derived wellness products (Infused) under the Canna Hemp™ brand sold across the US via e-commerce at cannahemp.com.

• Total revenues of $4.74 million for Q2 and $10.3 million YTD
• Gross profit increase of 543% year-over-year
• AMA product revenues increase of 10% year-over-year
• Top 5 selling cannabis brand in Nevada

"A continued disciplined approach to drive cost reductions and optimize operational efficiencies have allowed 1933 to achieve improvements year-over-year in both total revenues and gross profit. Continued efforts to implement strategic measures to increase cultivation yields, coupled with the enhancements undertaken at the cultivation facility in 2023, continue to bear positive outcomes. AMA is consistently ranked as a top 5 brand in Nevada, earning the top position in the flower category in December[1]. The quarter was negatively impacted by the trend of December historically being a weak month for the Nevada cannabis industry, while January rebounded to be one of the strongest months in the Company's history," said Mr. Paul Rosen, Chairman and CEO of the Company.

Revenues

During Q2 2024, the Company recorded revenues of $4.74 million, a 10% increase from $4.3 million in Q2 2023. For the six months ended January 31, 2024, revenues rose to $10.3 million from $9.3 million recorded during the same comparable period in 2023.

Gross Profit

In Q2 2024, gross profit was $2.2 million and $6 million year to date, excluding fair value adjustments. Post-adjustments, gross profit increased to $1.41 million in Q2 2024 from $0.05 million during the same comparable period in Q2 2023. For the six months ended January 31, 2024, gross profit was $3.1 million, a significant improvement compared to $0.6 million during the same period in 2023. The increase in gross profit is attributed to operational efficiencies and to the upgrades and facility improvements completed in Q4 2024.

Expenses

Expenses were $2.1 million for Q2 2024 compared to $0.4 million for Q2 2023. The increase from the prior year comparable period was primarily due the Company receiving a payroll tax refund from the IRS of $2 million related to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act in Q2 2023. Actual expenses decreased by 11% during the reporting period due to significant operational efficiencies.

General and administrative costs in Q2 2024 were $0.2 million compared to $0.6 million in Q2 2023. Cost-savings efforts combined with the Company's upgrades and improvements undertaken to its cultivation facility in Las Vegas are expected to help stabilize operating expenses and improve net loss in future quarters.

In comparison, net loss was $0.4 million in Q2 2023, and comprehensive loss was $0.6 million in the prior year comparable period. For the six months ended January 31, 2024, net loss declined to $1.1 million from $1.5 million during the same period in 2023. Comprehensive loss year to date decreased to $0.6 million from $1.0 million during to the same reporting period.

During the six months ended January 31, 2024, the Company announced that the upgrades and improvements undertaken to its cultivation facility in Las Vegas have been completed.

The Company added an additional bloom room with 65 lights, thus increasing the total number of lights in the facility's 17 bloom rooms to 806.

On December 29, 2024, the Company announced renegotiation of its convertible debentures with an original maturity date of December 31, 2023.
