Yooma Wellness Reports Results for Second Quarter of 2022
Yooma Wellness Inc. (CSE: YOOM, AQSE:YOOM), a Toronto-based
vertically-integrated global wellness platform that develops and markets a
portfolio of wellness brands, today released its interim financial statements
(the "Financial Statements") for the three and six-month periods ended June
30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 (the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, the
"Reporting Period"). A summary of Yooma's financial highlights during the
Reporting Period are set out below. More detailed information is contained
in the Financial Statements and related Management Discussion and Analysis,
which are available on Yooma's SEDAR page at www.sedar.com
(http://www.sedar.com) .
Jordan Greenberg, CEO at Yooma, commented: "Vitality CBD in Europe and Vertex
Co. in Japan are continuing to perform, and our revenues and gross profit have
both significantly increased, year-over-year. We are also starting to see some
early results from the streamlining and rationalization exercise that we
undertook earlier this year in the form of reduced expenses for the quarter, a
trend that we expect will continue in the near-term as our efforts continue.
The Company also continues to explore opportunities for the sale of assets or
further M&A if financing can be secured on acceptable terms."
Selected Financial Highlights (Q2 2022)
During the Reporting Period, the Company generated revenues of US$3.3 million,
but experienced comprehensive losses of US$1.2 million, reflecting, among
other things, cost of sales of US$2.3 million and expenses of US$2.3
million. The significant year-over-year increase in revenues and cost of
sales reflects the six significant acquisitions completed by Yooma in 2021,
which expanded Yooma's global platform, particularly in Europe and Japan.
The decrease in year-over-year expenses was driven primarily by reduced
transactional activity during the Reporting Period, as compared to the same
period last year, as well as the shut-down of some of Yooma's less profitable
operations in the United States and ongoing efforts to rationalize and
streamline Yooma's global platform.
