Financial Summary for Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2021
(Quarter Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to Quarter Ended June 30, 2020)

 

·Net sales increased 120%, to $9.7 million for the quarter, compared with $4.4 million in the year-ago quarter.
·In the Online Channels segment, which consists of e-commerce outlets including charlesandcolvard.com, moissaniteoutlet.com, third-party online marketplaces, drop-ship retail and other pure-play e-commerce outlets, net sales increased 86% year over year, to $5.6 million, representing 57% of total net sales for the quarter, compared to $3.0 million, or 68% of total net sales in the year-ago quarter.
·In the Traditional segment, which consists of wholesale and brick-and-mortar customers, net sales increased 189% year over year, to $4.1 million, representing 43% of total net sales for the quarter, compared to $1.4 million, or 32% of total net sales, in the year-ago quarter.

·Weighted average shares outstanding on a diluted basis were 31.1 million for the quarter, compared to 28.7 million in the year-ago quarter.
·During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2021, effective June 23, 2021, the Company’s PPP Loan forgiveness was approved and processed by the U.S. Small Business Administration, or the SBA, for the full principal of the Company’s PPP Loan in the amount of $965,000. In connection with the Company’s PPP Loan forgiveness, the SBA also approved forgiveness of the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest expense in the amount of approximately $9,000 that the Company recognized during the period the principal of the PPP Loan was outstanding. Accordingly, the full amount of principal of the loan, including the inception to-date interest expense, in the amount of approximately $974,000 was recognized and included in the gain on extinguishment of debt in the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021.
·As of June 30, 2021, cumulative positive taxable income over the last three tax years had been generated in the U.S. by the Company, as compared to the negative evidence of cumulative losses in previous years. The Company’s management also determined that its expectations of future taxable income in upcoming tax years would be sufficient to result in full utilization of the Company’s federal net operating loss carryforwards and certain of the deferred tax assets prior to any statutory expiration. As a result, the Company’s management determined that sufficient positive evidence exists as of June 30, 2021, to conclude that it is more likely than not deferred tax assets of approximately $6.4 million are realizable, and it reduced the Company’s valuation allowance accordingly. The reduction of the valuation allowance against these deferred tax assets was the main driver of the income tax benefit recognized during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021, of approximately $6.3 million.

The Company evaluates the financial performance of its segments based on net sales; product line gross profit, or the excess of product line sales over product line cost of goods sold; and operating income (loss). The Company’s product line cost of goods sold is defined as product cost of goods sold, excluding non-capitalized expenses from the Company’s manufacturing and production control departments, comprising personnel costs, depreciation, leases, utilities, and corporate overhead allocations; freight out; inventory write-downs; and other inventory adjustments, comprising costs of quality issues, and damaged goods.

 

The Company allocates certain general and administrative expenses between its Online Channels segment and its Traditional segment primarily based on net sales and number of employees to arrive at segment operating income (loss). Unallocated expenses remain in its Traditional segment.
