Management Commentary
“The third quarter was marked by record revenue growth and a return to sustainable profitability, beating our previously announced goal of a $100 million annualized sales run rate by year-end a quarter ahead of expectations,” said Adam L. Michaels, CEO of MamaMancini’s. “Looking ahead, as we leverage our recent acquisitions to build the foundations of a first-of-kind national deli solutions company, my immediate-term focus will remain on the continuous foundational improvement of our ‘3Cs’ strategy – Cost, Controls and Culture.
“On the cost front, we have designed and implemented new approaches to cost management, driving noticeable improvements in procurement, manufacturing and logistics management. While the third quarter gross margins improved over 1,110 basis points as compared to the first half of the year, we believe there is even more opportunity to drive operational efficiencies across both of our facilities. Turning to controls, our newly appointed CFO Anthony Gruber has been solidifying our finance and reporting capabilities, laying the foundation for the next stage of our maturation as a public company. Our enhanced approach to costing and pricing is already driving margin expansion – we expect to continue to capture this profit growth while also reinvesting some of this margin to serve as rocket fuel for accretive marketing and trade promotion. And last, but certainly not least, we are building a company culture that is geared for and incentivizes profitable growth. Our people are at the core of what we do and hiring, promoting and retaining talent is paramount to our long-term success.
“Turning to specific wins in the third quarter, we launched into three new customers and drove double digit new items into existing customers – half of which were through cross-selling new T&L products into legacy relationships. Our goal is to grow the average items carried per store severalfold to make it easier for consumers to find our products, as well as to make our logistics more efficient. Looking ahead to the fourth quarter, we have already successfully sold and received orders from three new customers and will ship an incremental double-digit portfolio of new items into existing customers, further expanding the breadth and depth of our coverage.
“The significant revenue growth we saw this quarter reflects our transition to a national deli solutions company – a vision I outlined on our last earnings call. Our profitability, which certainly benefitted from commodity cost improvements and successful pricing actions, was concurrently driven by a keen eye on cost controls and synergy realization. As we move through the holiday season and into 2023, I anticipate the third quarter will have marked the beginning of a sustainable return to profitability for MamaMancini’s as we prepare to embark on the next leg up in our growth trajectory,” concluded Michaels.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2023 Financial Results
Revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 increased 137% to a record $25.7 million, as compared to $10.9 million in the same year-ago quarter. The increase in revenue for the third quarter was driven by organic growth across all divisions – chiefly through cross selling – as well as by inorganic growth through the acquisition of T&L and Olive Branch.
Gross profit increased to a record $6.6 million, or 25.5% of total revenues, in the third quarter of fiscal 2023, as compared to $2.7 million, or 24.4% of total revenues, in the same year-ago quarter. Gross profit increased in the third quarter back to targeted levels based on normalization of commodity costs, successful pricing actions and strong sales growth. The Company continues to identify procurement and logistics efficiencies and cost savings through stronger buying power created through the acquisitions of T&L and Olive Branch.
Operating expenses totaled $5.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023, as compared to $2.7 million in the same year-ago quarter. As a percentage of sales, operating expenses decreased to 19.7% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023, as compared to 24.4% in the same year-ago quarter. Operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, benefited from synergies created through the acquisitions of T&L and Olive Branch.
Income from equity method investment in Chef Inspirational Foods totaled $0.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023.
Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 totaled $1.1 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $(0.0) million, or $(0.00) per diluted share, in the same year-ago quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP term, increased to $2.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2023, as compared to $0.3 million in the same year-ago quarter.
Cash and cash equivalents as of October 31, 2022 were $3.5 million, as compared to $0.9 million at January 31, 2022. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was driven by $3.0 million in cash flow from operations in the third quarter of fiscal 2023, $1.5 million of which was used to pay down the Company’s credit line.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes the following non-GAAP measure – adjusted EBITDA, which is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of financial performance. The company believes this non-GAAP measure, when considered together with the corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to the company’s results of operations. However, this non-GAAP measure has significant limitations in that it does not reflect all the costs and other items associated with the operation of the company’s business as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the company’s non-GAAP measures may be calculated differently and are therefore not comparable to similar measures by other companies. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP. For a definition and reconciliation of EBITDA to net income, its corresponding GAAP measure, please see the reconciliation table shown in this press release below.
