Management Commentary

We experienced a recovery in revenue during the quarter as sales were up more than 70% compared to Q1 2022, however compared to the prior year, the market environment remains challenged, as we continue to work through the effects of inflation and lingering supply chain challenges,” said Tony McDonald, Chairman and CEO of CEA Industries Inc. “That said, we have begun to see the benefit of our sales, marketing, and product development initiatives, as reflected by a quarter-over-quarter increase in new bookings. In Q2, we both expanded current contracts and signed multiple new customers, including a new contract with Greene Brothers Farm that has the potential to represent a multi-year engagement. We still have work to do to execute on our organic growth initiatives, however, the early results from our sales and marketing investments are encouraging.

“Looking ahead, we plan to execute on both organic and inorganic growth initiatives. Our strong balance sheet enables us to be patient and selective in our pursuit of M&A targets. Although the macro environment presents its share of challenges, it also presents a unique opportunity to acquire accretive businesses at attractive multiples that can accelerate our growth and profitability.”

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Revenue in the second quarter of 2022 was $3.0 million compared to $4.5 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease was attributed to supply chain and project delays. The Company continues to expect recognizing delayed revenue in the second half of the year and currently has approximately $10 million of backlog which is expected to be recognized over the next 18 months.

Net bookings in the second quarter of 2022 grew 67% to $1.5 million compared to $0.9 million in the year-ago period. The Company’s quarter-end backlog increased 21% to $9.7 million compared to $8.0 million for the same period in 2021. The increase in the Company’s new bookings and backlog for the second quarter of 2022 was partially offset by a $2.3 million contract cancellation that resulted from the customer’s loss of funding.

Gross profit in the second quarter of 2022 was $0.3 million compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 2021. Gross margin was 10.2% compared to 28.4% in the year ago period. The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by lower revenue and higher fixed costs.

Operating expenses in the second quarter of 2022 were $2.1 million compared to $1.2 million for the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily driven by a non-cash goodwill impairment charge related to the decline in the Company’s stock price.

Net loss in the second quarter of 2022 was $1.8 million or $(0.23) per share, compared to net income of $0.3 million or $0.17 per share for the same period in 2021.

Cash and cash equivalents increased to $20.6 million on June 30, 2022, compared to $2.2 million on December 31, 2021, while working capital increased by $17.4 million during this period. The increase was primarily driven by net proceeds from the Company’s sale of common stock and warrants of approximately $21.7 million in February 2022. At June 30, 2022, the company remained debt free.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial results on U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) basis, we use non-GAAP measures including net bookings and backlog, as well as other significant non-cash expenses such as stock-based compensation and depreciation expenses. We believe these non-GAAP measures are helpful in understanding our past performance and are intended to aid in evaluating our potential future results. The presentation of these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to our GAAP results and are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information prepared or presented in accordance with GAAP.
