SANTA MONICA, Calif. — BUSINESS WIRE – Feb. 5, 2024 — Starco Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) (OTCQB: STCB), developer and acquirer of behavior-changing technologies and brands that spark excitement in the everyday, today released preliminary fiscal year 2023 results and an initial financial outlook for fiscal year 2024.
The Company now expects reported net revenue for fiscal year 2023 to be $70 million, around the mid-point of the previously provided guidance range of $66 million to $77 million. Adjusted EBITDA1 for fiscal year 2023 is now expected to be $7 million, within the previously provided guidance range of $7 million to $9 million.
The Company is projecting between $78 million and $82 million in reported net revenue and between $8 million and $10 million (~10% to ~12% of Net Sales) in Adjusted EBITDA1 for fiscal year 2024.
Starco Brands Chairman & CEO Ross Sklar said: “Over the past year, we have been intensely focused on M&A integrations, operational efficiencies and cost savings. In parallel, we have executed a robust growth strategy involving adding new distribution and launching new products. Our M&A integration methodology reinforces our shared service model that not only allows the Company to achieve growth with less friction but also ensures a strong Adjusted EBITDA1, giving the organization confidence in the guidance we set. From a growth perspective, the team made incredible headway in expanding our points of distribution company-wide, both online and in retail. We executed a number of cost-effective and innovative experiential marketing campaigns, resulting in billions of earned media that support our retail partners and online channels. We launched new products in a number of our portfolio companies, setting up strong growth for 2024. I’m extremely proud of our Company’s ability to achieve reported net revenue and Adjusted EBITDA1 in line with our guidance for fiscal year 2023 and project another year of profitable growth for fiscal year 2024. Our brands have made a name for themselves and are winning in the market, and we will continue to advance our goal to be a 21st-century consumer packaged goods powerhouse.”
