Graham Purdy, President and CEO, commented: “We were pleased by our second quarter results. We achieved our highest quarterly EBITDA since the second quarter of 2021. We believe Zig-Zag is on a sustainable growth trajectory, and Stoker’s MST continues to grow market share. In addition, sales of FRE, our modern oral nicotine pouch, grew 76% sequentially as we continue to expand our national footprint.”

Zig-Zag Products Segment (47% of total net sales in the quarter)

For the second quarter, Zig-Zag Products net sales increased 8.0% to $50.5 million driven by solid performance in our North American Papers & Wraps businesses as well as solid growth in cigars.

For the quarter, the Zig-Zag Products segment gross profit increased 1.7% to $26.9 million. Gross margin declined 330 basis points to 53.2% driven primarily by product mix.

“We are encouraged by our Zig-Zag results for the quarter,” said Purdy. “Our ongoing initiatives continue to demonstrate progress toward sustainably growing the Zig-Zag brand.”

Stoker’s Products Segment (39% of total net sales in the quarter)

For the second quarter, Stoker’s Products net sales increased 18.5% to $42.7 million. The segment was driven by high teens growth from MST and triple-digit growth off of a low base for FRE, partially offset by low-single-digit decline in loose-leaf tobacco. For the second quarter, total Stoker’s Products segment volume increased 5.3%, while price / mix increased 13.2%.

For the quarter, the Stoker’s Products segment gross profit increased 17.8% to $23.5 million. Gross margin contracted 30 basis points to 55.0%.

Performance Measures in the Second Quarter

Second quarter consolidated selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $32.8 million compared to $31.9 million in the second quarter of 2023.

The second quarter SG&A included the following notable items:

•     $1.9 million of stock compensation expense compared to $2.1 million in the year-ago period; and
•     $1.0 million of FDA PMTA-related expenses for modern oral products compared to $0.7 million in the year-ago period.

Total gross debt as of June 30, 2024 was $368.5 million. Net debt (total gross debt less unrestricted cash) as of June 30, 2024 was $226.4 million. The Company ended the quarter with total liquidity of $201.0 million, comprised of $142.2 million in cash and $58.8 million of asset backed revolving credit facility capacity.

On July 15, 2024, the Company retired the remaining $118.5 million of its convertible notes outstanding with cash on hand. Pro forma for retirement of the convertible notes as of June 30, 2024, the Company had gross debt outstanding of $250.0 million and net debt of $226.4 million.

During the quarter, the Company re-purchased 34,350 shares of common stock at a cost of $1.0 million.

2024 Outlook

The Company is increasing its previous full-year 2024 adjusted EBITDA guidance from $95 to $100 million to $98 to $102 million, which excludes CDS.

Creative Distribution Solutions (“CDS”) (14% of total net sales in the quarter)

For the second quarter, CDS net sales were $15.3 million, gross profit was $3.4 million, and gross margin was 22.5%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, we use non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Adjusted Operating Income (Loss). We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) are used by management to compare our performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses and planning purposes and are presented to our board of directors. We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) are appropriate measures of operating performance because they eliminate the impact of expenses that do not relate to business performance.

We define “EBITDA” as net income before interest expense, gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt,  income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as net income before interest expense, gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt, income tax expense, depreciation, amortization, other non-cash items and other items that we do not consider ordinary course in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. We define “Adjusted Net Income” as net income excluding items that we do not consider ordinary course in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. We define “Adjusted Diluted EPS” as diluted earnings per share excluding items that we do not consider ordinary course in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. We define “Adjusted Operating Income (Loss)” as operating income excluding other non-cash items and other items that we do not consider ordinary course in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance.

Non-U.S. GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) exclude significant expenses that are required by U.S. GAAP to be recorded in our financial statements and is subject to inherent limitations. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate this non-U.S. GAAP measure differently than we do or may not calculate it at all, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

In accordance with SEC rules, we have provided, in the supplemental information attached, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the next directly comparable GAAP measures.

(c)
Represents non-cash stock options, restricted stock, incentives expense and Solace performance stock units.
(d)
Represents the fees incurred for transaction expenses.
(e)
Represents costs associated with applications related to FDA premarket tobacco product application (“PMTA”).  The PMTA regime requires the Company to submit an application to the FDA to receive marketing authorization to continue to sell certain of its product lines with continued sales permitted during the pendency of the applications. The application is a onetime resource-intensive process for each covered product line; however, due to the nature of the implementation process for those product lines already in the market, applications can take multiple years to complete rather than the typical one-time submission. The Company currently has only two product lines currently subject to the PMTA process, having utilized other regulatory pathway options available for our other product lines. The Company does not expect to submit additional PMTA applications for any new product lines after the submission for the remaining two are complete.
(f)
Represents impairment of investment assets.
(g)
Represents a federal excise tax refund included in other operating income.
