Mr. Mike Thomsonthe company’s chief financial officer, commented on the year-end results by stating, “Sales of boxed products increased 32% in the current period, primarily due to increased distribution of the company’s products. Sunny with a chance of flowers brand, which launched in the fall of 2020, and airline sales which were limited the previous year due to COVID-19 travel restrictions.
Bulk wine sales were down 56% from the prior year as the Company continued to increase the use of its bulk wine inventory in the production of case-based products. Additionally, bulk wine sales in fiscal 2021 were aided by increased demand due to potential threats to the 2020 harvest from California wildfires, as well as lower than industry-wide average bulk wine supplies. Winery processing revenue increased 40% and grape sales increased 445% in fiscal 2022, generally reflecting higher yields from the 2021 harvest. Overall, total revenue increased increased by 4% and gross margins increased from 24% to 27% in the prior year.
Sales and marketing expenses increased by 22%, from $8.5 at $10.4 million, because the Company has invested in the marketing of new brands and new territories. The Company recognized a gain of $24.4 million from the sale of wine properties in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and, due to the reduction in debt related to the proceeds of the sale, net interest expense decreased by 24% compared to $4.3 million at $3.3 million. The company made a net profit of $14.2 million in fiscal year 2022 compared to a net loss of $4.7 million in fiscal year 2021.”
