Management Commentary
John Kueber, CEO of Nevis Brands, commented,
“We are pleased to start our fiscal 2024 by remaining close to our Q4 2023 revenues and continuing to build our market footprint. While some initial revenues from California and Nevada were included in Q1, our revenue gains were offset by a change in licensee in Oregon which reduced our license revenues in that territory to almost zero. We also experienced some seasonally lower orders in several of our existing territories over the holiday season.”
“Oregon is now operational as of Feb 29th and will contribute to revenues again in Q2 2024. We also incurred higher than normal administrative and marketing costs relating to our 2023 audit and payments related to our listing on the US OTC market. Having completed that process, we believe we will have reduced in expense in Q2.”
“Looking forward to Q2, we believe we will have increased revenues, which will include revenue streams from Oregon and early revenues from our launch in Missouri in late April. Our California retail footprint continues to develop. We also look forward to announcing additional products for our existing markets.”
