Recent Business Highlights
Sonoma continued to grow its distribution network by introducing new products, entering into new partnerships, and working with existing partners to expand our markets:
Results for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2024
Total revenue of $3.4 million for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2024 increased by $0.4 million, or 14%, from $3.0 million for the same period last year. This increase was due to increased sales in all territories, other than a slight decline in Rest of the World.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, Sonoma reported cost of revenues of $2.3 million resulting in total gross profit of $1.1 million, or 32% of total revenue, compared to a gross profit of $0.9 million, or 29% of total revenue in the same period last year.
Total operating expenses during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 were $2.5 million, up 0.5 million, or 24%, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The primary reasons for this increase were additional research and development expenses related to product development and expanded regulatory efforts in the U.S. and Europe. Due to the improvement in gross margin of 3% compared to the prior year, the additional research and development expenses did not impact the net increase in total expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Net loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $1.1 million, down by $0.2 million, or 18%, compared to the same period last year. EBITDA loss for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 of $1.3 million was up by $0.3 million, or 28%, compared to an EBITDA loss of $1.0 million for the same period last year.
As of March 31, 2024, Sonoma had cash and cash equivalents of $3.1 million.
Results for the Year Ended March 31, 2024
Total revenues for the year ended March 31, 2024 of $12.7 million decreased by $0.6 million as compared to $13.3 million for the year ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in revenue was driven primarily by a decline of $0.9 million in service revenue due to the sale of machinery to a customer in Latin America during the prior year, which management expects to be a one-time event. Product revenues increased 3% from the prior year primarily as a result of increases in Europe and Latin America offset by declines in the United States, Asia and Rest of the World.
For the year ended March 31, 2024, Sonoma reported total revenues of $12.7 million and total cost of revenues of $8.0 million, resulting in total gross profit of $4.7 million, or 37% of total revenues, compared to a gross profit of $4.5 million, or 34% of total revenues, for the same period in the prior year.
Total operating expenses during fiscal year 2024 were $9.4 million, up $0.4 million, or 4%, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The primary reasons for the increase were additional research and development expenses related to product development and expanded regulatory efforts in the U.S. and Europe. Due to the improvement in gross margin in fiscal year 2024 compared to the prior year, total expenses for the year decreased despite the additional research and development expenses.
Net loss during fiscal year 2024 was $4.8 million, down $0.3 million, or 6%, compared to the same period last year. EBITDA loss for fiscal year 2024 of $4.0 million was up $0.4 million, or 10%, compared to an EBITDA loss of $3.6 million for the same period last year.
