INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev., Nov. 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vintage Wine Estates, Inc. (NASDAQ: VWE) (TSX: VWE.U) (TSX: VWE.WT.U) (“VWE” or the “Company”), one of the fastest-growing wine producers in the U.S. with an industry leading direct-to-customer platform, today reported its financial results for its first quarter fiscal year 2022 ended September 30, 2021. Results include the additions of Kunde Family Winery (“Kunde”) acquired on April 19, 2021, and The Sommelier Company (“TSC”) acquired on June 22, 2021. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company acquired on October 4, 2021, Vinesse, LLC (“Vinesse”) and announced simultaneously with financial results the acquisition of ACE Cider, which is expected to close on November 16, 2021.
Pat Roney, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are making excellent progress as an organization, and I am impressed with our team’s ability to address head-on the many challenges presented by supply chain constraints. We have added new talent to our leadership in operations, are building out our accounting and finance team, and we measurably expanded our production capacity. Importantly, we believe our omni-channel and digital marketing capabilities are best-in-class in the industry. We have further expanded our brand portfolio and distribution channels with our acquisition of ACE Cider, and we expect to leverage these advantages to continue to deliver on outpaced growth and profitability.”
He added, “We were unable to ship about $7 million in product in our B2B channel because of shortages in glass which delayed production and shipments to a major retailer. These volumes were rescheduled into the rest of fiscal 2022. We also continue to experience higher freight costs due to the shortage of truck capacity. We are addressing the incremental costs with our pricing strategies, surcharges and fees, while leveraging our cost-effective operating model to maintain our competitive advantage.”
First Quarter Fiscal 2022 Highlights and Financial Results Review (compared with prior-year period unless noted otherwise)
Highlights
- Strong Direct-to-Consumer (“DTC”) revenue growth of $4.0 million, or 36.9%, to $14.9 million driven by acquired revenue of $2.1 million, increased tasting room traffic, measurable growth in wine club membership and retention, continued gains in eCommerce and digital channels with combined Average Order Value (AOV) growth of 3% across all key transaction sites.
- Wholesale revenue increased $1.2 million, or 7.7%, to $16.2 million from acquired revenue of $0.5 million, higher case volumes to international markets and favorable product mix, more than offsetting the discontinuation of some minor brands and marketing programs. Across brands, VWE achieved depletion volume growth of 1% over the prior-year period, whereas for the Company’s priority brands, which represent approximately 33% of total depletion volume, depletions grew 14.4%.
- Business-to-Business (“B2B”) demand was solid, while fulfillment was impacted by supply chain challenges that delayed approximately $7 million in shipments resulting in revenue of $24.5 million, down $1.3 million, or 5.2%.
Revenue and Volume (See additional segment data in the attached tables)
Net revenue in the quarter of $55.7 million was up $1.9 million, or 3.4%, over the prior-year period driven by acquisitions and strong organic increases in DTC volume which more than offset the modest decline in B2B revenue. Acquisitions contributed $2.6 million in net revenue for the period.

| Three Months Ended September 30, | ||||||||||||||||
| (in thousands) | 2021 | 2020 | Unit Change | % Change | ||||||||||||
| Wholesale | 209 | 202 | 7 | 3.5 | % | |||||||||||

| DTC | 60 | 53 | 7 | 13.2 | % | |||||||||||
| Total case volume | 396 | 466 | -70 | -15.0 | % | |||||||||||
Case volume was down 15.0% for the quarter, as a result of lower B2B fulfillment reflecting challenges presented by supply chain constraints, specifically shortages of bottles for private labels. While B2B volume was down 39.8%, revenue was down just 5.2%, reflecting favorable product mix. The volume decline was partially offset by the 13.2% increase in volume for the DTC segment.
Gross Profit and Margin
Gross profit was up $0.9 million to $23.4 million, an increase of 4.0%. Gross margin expanded 24 basis points to 42.1% driven by the significant year-over-year increase in the DTC segment, which is a higher-margin business, and favorable product mix in the Wholesale segment.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased $3.3 million, or 23.6%, to $17.3 million. Higher selling, general and administrative expenses reflected approximately $1.8 million of incremental costs related to infrastructure required to be a public company, as well as the continued increased costs of labor, warehousing, freight, and insurance.
Operating and Net Income
Income from operations during the quarter was $6.1 million compared with $8.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. Acquisitions contributed $0.7 million in operating income in the quarter. Operating margin for the quarter was 11.0%, compared with 15.9% in the prior-year period. Measurably improved operating income of $1.4 million from the three primary operating segments of Wholesale, DTC and B2B did not fully offset the significant incremental costs of initial structure as a public company reflected in the Corporate and Other segment. While the Company plans to invest further in its financial and accounting infrastructure, higher costs related to the initial public company structure included approximately $1.2 million in unusually high D&O insurance and professional fees which the Company expects to reduce in fiscal 2023.
Interest expense for the first quarter fiscal 2022 was $3.6 million, up $0.2 million, or 6.5%, as a result of higher rates and borrowings.
Net income available to VWE common shareholders for the quarter was $2.8 million, down from $3.2 million in the prior-year period. On a per diluted share basis, net income available to VWE common shareholders was $0.05 for the quarter compared with $0.12 per diluted share in the prior-year period.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA increased to $11.8 million, or 21.1% of net revenue, from $11.7 million, or 21.7% of net revenue, reflecting strong growth in DTC.
NOTE: Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are all non-GAAP metrics. Please see the relevant disclosures and reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures in the tables that accompany this release.
Strong Balance Sheet with Financial Flexibility
Liquidity
At quarter end, the Company had approximately $320 million in liquidity available for organic investments and acquisitions. This included $118.3 million in unrestricted cash, approximately $102 million available under its revolving line of credit and $100 million available under the accordion feature of the lending agreement for acquisitions.
Capital Investments
Capital expenditures in the fiscal 2022 first quarter were $7.8 million and included remaining investments in the expansion for warehousing and bottling capacity as well as ongoing maintenance. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2022 are expected to be approximately $12 million.
Fiscal Year 2022 Outlook
Mr. Roney noted, “These are really exciting times at Vintage Wine Estates. Over the last 20 years, we have executed a plan that delivered excellent growth and a unique value proposition for our customers. As we advance our strategy, we believe we can accelerate our delivery on value with even stronger talent, a larger strategic vision and greater financial flexibility. We expect to continue to navigate the unprecedented supply chain constraints impacting everyone as we work to identify alternate supply sources and carefully manage shipments to meet customers’ demands.”
The Company is updating its guidance for fiscal year 2022 and expects results to be in the following approximate ranges:
| FY22 Net revenue: | $265 million to $275 million | Represents over 22% growth y/y at mid-point of range |
| Q2 FY22 Net revenue: | $77 million to $82 million | Includes Vinesse and ACE Cider from the dates of acquisition |
| FY22 Adjusted EBITDA: | $63 million to $65 million | Represents over 63% growth y/y at mid-point of range |
| FY22 Adjusted EBITDA Margin: | ~24% at midpoint | Approximate 7-point improvement over prior year |
Note regarding forward looking non-GAAP metrics: VWE cannot provide a reconciliation between its forecasted Adjusted EBITDA and net revenue metrics to the nearest GAAP measure without unreasonable effort or expense due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting and providing reliable estimates for certain items. These non-GAAP financial measures are preliminary estimates and are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, among others, changes in connection with quarter-end and yearend adjustments. These items reside outside the Company’s control and may vary greatly between periods and could significantly impact future financial results. For more information regarding the use of non-GAAP measures, please see discussion provided under Non-GAAP Financial Information in this news release and the Company’s filings with the SEC.
Acquisition of ACE Cider
The Company announced today the acquisition of ACE Cider, a leading independent craft cider brand in the U.S. ACE will add over one million equivalent cases to volumes sold for VWE. It currently has annual revenue of approximately $20 million and has been growing at an approximate mid-teen compounded annual growth rate the last five years.
Transfer of Warrants to Nasdaq Platform
The Company also announced that it plans to move its warrants currently trading on the TSX under ticker symbol VWE.WT.U to the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol VWEWW.

About Vintage Wine Estates, Inc.
Vintage Wine Estates is a family of wineries and wines whose mission is to produce the finest quality wines and provide incredible customer experiences with wineries throughout Napa, Sonoma, California’s Central Coast, Oregon and Washington State. Since its founding 20 years ago, the Company has grown to be the 15th largest wine producer in the U.S. selling more than two million nine-liter equivalent cases annually. To consistently drive growth, the Company curates, creates, stewards and markets its many brands and services to customers and end consumers via a balanced omni-channel strategy encompassing direct-to-consumer, wholesale and exclusive brand arrangements with national retailers. While VWE is diverse across price points and varietals with over 50 brands ranging from $10 to $150 at retail, its primary focus is on the fastest growing premium segment of the wine industry with the majority of brands selling in the $10 to $20 price range. The Company regularly posts updates and additional information at www.vintagewineestates.com.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to reporting net income prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, VWE uses Adjusted EBITDA to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, casualty losses or gains, impairment losses, changes in the fair value of derivatives, restructuring related income or expenses, acquisition and integration costs, and certain non-cash, nonrecurring, or other items that are included in net income that VWE does not consider indicative of its ongoing operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP. VWE believes this non-GAAP measure provides investors with additional insight into the underlying trends of VWE’s business and assists in analyzing VWE’s performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that VWE does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance, which allows for a better comparison against historical results and expectations for future performance. Adjusted EBITDA has certain limitations as an analytical tool, and it should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may produce results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable with a similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies.
In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. VWE’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an implication that future results will be unaffected by the types of items excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to results determined in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin to supplement GAAP measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies. These metrics are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in the industry, when considered alongside other GAAP measures.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, changes in the fair value of derivatives, gain/loss on the disposition of assets, deferred rent adjustment, incremental public company costs, and inventory acquisition basis adjustment or other items included in net income that the Company does not consider indicative of its ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue.
