AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital Brands Group, Inc. ("DBG") (NASDAQ: DBGI), a curated collection of luxury lifestyle, digital-first brands, today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2022.
Second Quarter 2022 Highlight Compared to Second Quarter 2021
"We delivered strong top line results, which we expect to meaningfully accelerate in the second half of the year as we enter our peak selling period. In addition, our gross margin of 58% expanded significantly both sequentially and year-over-year, which we also expect to continue throughout the second half of the year," said Hil Davis, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Brands Group.
"The increasing top line combined with our higher gross margins are creating operating leverage on our fixed costs of business. Given these trends, we expect our combined EBITDA for the September through December period of 2022 to be flat to negative $500,000. We believe this shows there is a clear and short path to profitability," said Davis.
"To that point, we are excited to announce that we hired a head of wholesale for dstld, which has never been offered in the wholesale channel. She joins us from another denim brand, where she increased their wholesale revenue from $6 million to $39 million in three years. This additional revenue driver for 2023 is just one more way we will drive top line growth and achieve profitability," concluded Davis.
Second Quarter 2022 Highlights
Net Sales were $3.7 million versus $1.0 million in the year ago quarter, an increase of 273% year over year. Our second quarter is our lowest wholesale revenue quarter across all our wholesale brands as these brands only ship two of the three months due to lower wholesale demand during this period.
Gross profit margin was 58.1% versus 39.3% a year ago, an increase of 450%. Gross profit increased by $1.8 million due to improved gross margins at all our brands. Additionally, this is the first quarter we have reported where we did not incur any inventory write-downs associated with older product, which we believe illustrates the gross margin power of our brands.
General and administrative expenses as a % of revenue decreased 538% to 133.5% of revenues versus 716.7% a year ago. General and administrative expenses were $5.0 million versus $7.2 million in the year ago quarter. Starting in September, all our brands will share one office and one distribution center, which will result in additional cost savings going forward. Also, we do not expect any additional increases in general and administrative expenses in the second half of the year, which should result in significant revenue leverage as we enter our peak revenue season.
Sales and marketing expenses were 45.6% of revenues versus 92.0% a year ago, a decrease of 50.4%. Sales and marketing expenses were $1.7 million versus $923,000 a year ago. We continue to experience meaningful e-commerce revenue growth year-over year associated with our digital marketing programs. This increase in e-commerce revenue is also driving higher gross margins across all our wholesale brands.
Distribution expenses were 5.9% of revenues versus 7.0% a year ago, a decline of 14.7%. Distribution expenses were $222,000 versus $70,000 a year ago, driven by the addition of Harper & Jones and Stateside distribution expenses in this quarter versus approximately one-third of Harper & Jones distribution expenses and no distribution expenses for Stateside a year ago. We expect to benefit from a reduction in our distribution expenses associated with operating one distribution center versus two distribution centers, as we have consolidated into one distribution center.
Change in the fair value of contingent considerations, which is a non-cash expense, was $5.9 million versus $3.1 million a year ago.
Loss from operations excluding the change in fair value of contingent considerations was $4.7 million versus $7.8 million a year ago.
Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $9.5 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, compared to net loss attributable to common stockholders of $10.7 million, or $1.97 per diluted share, a year ago.
Excluding the non-cash charge associated with the change in fair value of contingent considerations, net loss attributable to common stockholders was $3.6 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to net loss attributable to common stockholders of $7.7 million, or $1.41 per diluted share, a year ago.
