Digital Brands Group Reports Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results with a 58% Increase in Revenues
AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital Brands Group, Inc. ("DBG") (NASDAQ: DBGI), a curated collection of luxury lifestyle, digital-first brands, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2022.
Third Quarter 2022 Highlight Compared to Third Quarter 2021
- Net revenues of $3.4 million, an increase of 58.3% or $2.2 million
- This excludes deferred revenue of $0.4 million, which will be recognized in our fourth quarter results
- Gross profit margin of 48.3% versus 55.9%
- Gross profit was negatively impacted by 5.1% due to the accounting treatment of deferred revenue and the timing of fabric costs in our men's custom business, which will benefit the fourth quarter gross profit
- Net loss per diluted share of $9.26 versus a net loss of $75.83
- Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $4.9 million versus a net loss of $8.9 million
- The net loss included interest expense of $2.3 million, which should be less than $150,000 a quarter going forward due to the elimination of debt
"We are pleased to announce that we delivered strong revenue growth and continued operating leverage on our fixed costs in the third quarter," said Hil Davis, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Brands Group. "We also reduced our debt significantly during the quarter, which allows us to factor our wholesale purchase orders. This enables us to transition to a positive working capital cycle from the negative working capital cycle we have historically operated our businesses.
"Additionally, we launched the Bailey shop in October, which is a single e-commerce destination that features all our brands. We have experienced strong results and consumer trends since we launched this multi-brand site. We believe this shows the power of our initial vision and business model and sets a strong foundation to which we can add additional brands, like Sundry, as we bring them into our portfolio," said Davis.
Third Quarter 2022 Highlights
Net Sales were $3.4 million versus $2.2 million in the year ago quarter, an increase of 58.3% year over year. Net sales excluded $0.4 million in deferred revenue associated with the timing of when customer orders were placed versus when they were shipped in our men's custom business, as there is an approximate four-week lag between ordered versus shipped. Net sales were also negatively impacted due to some Stateside wholesale orders shipping after September 30th. The revenue associated with these wholesale orders will shift to our fourth quarter revenue.
Gross profit margin was 48.3% versus 55.9% a year ago, a decrease of 7.6% in gross profit margin. Gross profit margin was negatively impacted by 5.1% due to the accounting treatment of deferred revenue and the timing of fabric costs in our men's custom business, which will shift into the fourth quarter as a benefit to gross profit. Additionally, gross profit margin was negatively impacted by price increases in our production expenses during the third quarter. These increases in production prices have been offset with price increases in our retail price points starting the first quarter of 2023.
General and administrative expenses as a % of revenue decreased 38.5% to 105.8% of revenues versus 172.0% a year ago. General and administrative expenses were $3.6 million versus $3.7 million in the year ago quarter. We continue to get leverage on our fixed costs. We do not expect any additional increases in general and administrative expenses.
Sales and marketing expenses were 35.8% of revenues versus 60.4% a year ago, a decrease of 40.8%. Sales and marketing expenses were $1.2 million versus $1.3 million a year ago. We slowed our digital advertising spend in the third quarter in advance of our Bailey Shop rollout in October. In October, we redirected our advertising spend from each of our brand sites to our Bailey Shop site, which features all our brands on a single site. This shift in our advertising strategy should result in sales and marketing efficiencies going forward.
Distribution expenses were 2.9% of revenues versus 4.9% a year ago, a decline of 41.4%. Distribution expenses were $98,000 versus $105,000 a year ago. We expect to continue to benefit from a reduction in our distribution expenses associated with operating one distribution center versus two distribution centers, as we consolidated two distribution centers into one distribution center during the second quarter of this year.
Loss from operations was $2.6 million versus $7.9 million a year ago, a decline of $5.3 million from a year ago.
Interest expenses was $2.3 million versus $0.5 million a year ago. Going forward, interest expense should be less than $150,000 a quarter due to the elimination of debt.
Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $4.9 million, or $9.26 per diluted share, compared to net loss attributable to common stockholders of $8.9 million, or $75.83 per diluted share, a year ago.
