Dave Briskie, CFO of Youngevity International, said “We are very pleased to deliver record revenue and our eighth straight quarter of profitability. As in the first quarter, Q2 numbers carried a significant expense load related to our aggressive growth strategy. In fact, Q2 included over $551,000 in expenses that impacted our results. These expenses were primarily related to our international expansion, the launch of MK Collaborative, and acquisition integration expenses related to Beyond Organic and our newly acquired Nicaragua coffee plantation and processing plant. We expect to continue to invest in both organic and acquisition related opportunities to grow and improve profitability in both our direct selling and coffee business segments.”

2014 Second Quarter Results

• For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company reported net revenue of $32.7 million, compared to $20.9 million for the same period in 2013, an increase of 56.6%. The increase in revenue is attributed primarily to the increase in our product offerings and the number of distributors selling our product and the increase in the number of customers consuming our products.

The increase in revenues in commercial coffee is primarily due to the addition of the green coffee business.
