Second Quarter 2019 Results

Revenues for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019 increased 21.2% to $53.7 millionas compared to $44.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. We derived approximately 60% of our revenue from our direct selling segment and approximately 40% of our revenue from our commercial coffee segment.

Direct selling segment revenues decreased 12.8% to $32.1 million in the current quarter as compared to $36.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.

This decrease was attributable to a decrease in the number of ordering distributors and customers, partially offset by an increase in average order amount per distributor and customer. Commercial coffee segment revenues increased by 186.5% to $21.2 million in the current quarter as compared to $7.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. This increase was primarily attributed to increased revenues from our new green coffee contract that CLR recently signed for approximately $250 million over 5 years. The new commercial hemp segment recorded $274,000 in revenues related to the acquisition of Khrysos which closed on February 15, 2019.

Gross profit for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019 increased 2.0% to $25.9 million as compared to $25.4 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018. Gross profit in the direct selling segment decreased 11.6% to $22.2 million as compared to $25.1 for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018 as a result of the decrease in revenues discussed above.

Gross Profit in the commercial coffee segment increased to $3,731,000 in the current quarter, compared to $295,000 for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018, primarily due to the increase in revenues from our new green coffee contract discussed above. Gross margin in the commercial hemp segment was a loss of $49,000 related to the acquisition of Khrysos which closed on February 15, 2019. Overall gross profit as a percentage of revenues decreased to 48.3% in the current quarter compared to 57.4% in the same period last year, primarily due to the increased revenues in the commercial coffee segment, which generally produces lower margins than the direct selling segment.

Operating expenses increased 3.3% to $25,534,000 as compared to $24,729,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Distributor compensation paid to our independent distributors in the direct selling segment decreased 12.1% to $14,497,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019, from $16,487,000 for the same period last year. This decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease in direct selling segment revenues.

Total sales and marketing expense decreased 9.4% to $2,786,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 from $3,076,000 for the same period last year.
