In addition, the report noted that SBEV’s TapouT Energy Drink launched during the second quarter. As of June 30, 2023, the company had total cash and cash equivalents of $903,235, compared with $4.4 million on Dec. 31, 2022. “Our 2023 second quarter results reflect the strengths that we are developing as we grow the business as well as some of the challenges that inevitably emerge in growth businesses,” said Splash Beverage chair and CEO Robert Nistico in the press release.

“Our Qplash platform, which has increased 43% in the first half of the year compared to last year, is developing very nicely on both a business-to-business (‘B2B’) and business-to-consumer (‘B2C’) basis and is now expanding to select international markets. We look for continued contributions from that business. Our quarterly beverage revenues were down slightly in the second quarter, but we attribute that to buying patterns of distributors which can have an impact of timing of sales. The first half beverage sales increased modestly at 7% overall, so we expect a greater upward trend the second half of the year. The beverage business generally ‘stair steps’ it’s way to growth . . . you focus on distribution, support those new placements with marketing and the cycle starts over again. In total, we are where we believe we are supposed to be. Subsequent to the second quarter reporting period, we disclosed an additional $2.7 million raise from existing investors and a $10 million credit facility, which will not only provide us with needed growth capital but also allows us to withdraw the much larger $200 million shelf offering, which has been the source of some investor concern. We remain committed to executing a business plan that relies on four key pillars for success. We have a strong management team, we have a diverse portfolio of brands that match consumer trends, our marketing strategy continues to yield new distribution agreements and retail authorizations, and we have the financial flexibility we need. We look forward to the second half of 2023.”
