VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / April 3, 2023 / 1933 Industries Inc. (the "Company" or "1933 Industries") (CSE:TGIF)(OTCQB:TGIFF), a Nevada-focused cannabis cultivator and producer, is pleased to announce its second quarter financial results ("Q2 2023") For the six months ended January 31, 2023, and 2022. All amounts expressed are in Canadian dollars.

The Company owns 91% of Alternative Medicine Association (AMA), the Company's cultivation and production subsidiary focused on the medical and adult-use cannabis market, and 100% of CBD product manufacturer Infused MFG LLC (Infused). The Company's revenue is derived from wholesale cannabis sales in Nevada (AMA), and from the sale of hemp-derived consumer packaged goods (Infused) under the Canna Hemp™ brand sold across the US via e-commerce at cannahemp.com.

Q2 2023 Financial Highlights

• Revenue $3.6 million for Q2 2023 and $9.2 million for the six months ended January 31, 2023
• Expenses $0.2 million
• Gross margin $1.9 million before adjustments
• Net loss $0.4 million
• Adjusted EBITDA $0.1 million - Second consecutive quarter of positive EBITDA

Consolidated Operating Highlights

• Total revenues were $3.6 million for Q2 2023, representing a 13% increase over $3.2 million for Q2 2022. Revenues are $9.2 million for the six months ended January 31, 2023, representing a 52% increase from $6.0 million during the same period in 2022.
• Expenses of $0.2 million for Q2 2023 decreased by 92% from $2.4 million in Q2 2022 in large part due to a substantial tax refund from the IRS. The Company continues to work diligently on controlling expenses.
• Gross margin was $1.9 million, before fair value adjustments on biological assets and realized fair value adjustments on the sale of inventory. The decrease in gross margin is attributable to a decrease in flower pricing in Nevada.

• Adjusted EBITDA was $0.1 million for Q2 2023 and $0.1 million for Q2 2022.

Management Commentary

Mr. Paul Rosen, Chairman and CEO of 1933 Industries commented, "Wholesale pricing pressure continues to impact cultivators in Nevada, with lower sale prices on cannabis products experienced across the industry. In addition, the Company has chosen to deal with some legacy infrastructure issues that compressed our overall capacity this quarter. During the reporting period, the Company continued to focus on strengthening its operation. Necessary and essential infrastructure improvements to the Company's cultivation facility, including improvements to the facility's irrigation, air movement and humidification systems have been initialized and are well underway. A build-up of inventory will be the Company's priorities in the following quarters in order to increase the production of sellable dried flower and pre-rolls. We expect flower prices to stabilize in the near future, and we expect as well that the launch of consumption lounges will create a new attraction for visitors to the state and expand cannabis-related tourism. The Company is well positioned to benefit from increased demand, flower price stabilization, and the strength of its top brand and in-demand products that deliver excellent value to consumers.

Operationally, the Company has made substantial improvements in lowering its debt load, reducing expenses, and conserving its working capital over the last several quarters. The Company recorded positive Adjusted EBITDA for a second quarter in a row, a milestone in the Company's history."

Appointment of Ester Vigil as President

The Company is pleased to announce that Ms. Ester Vigil has been appointed as President. Ms. Vigil previously held the role of Director of Sales and served as president from 2019 to 2020. Ms. Vigil's return to the Company has been marked by significant achievements, including repositioning AMA as a top brand in Nevada. "Ester's contributions to the Company are very meaningful," said Mr. Rosen. "She has added value in all areas of our business, and her leadership has earned her esteem and respect from both her colleagues at 1933, and throughout the overall Nevada cannabis industry. I look forward to Ester continuing to help improve our business, deliver excellent value to our customers and deliver future growth."
