Chanson International Holding Announces Fiscal Year 2022 Financial Results

---

URUMQI, China, May 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Chanson International Holding (Nasdaq: CHSN) (the "Company" or "Chanson"), a provider of bakery, seasonal, and beverage products through its chain stores in China and the United States, today announced its financial results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Mr. Gang Li, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, "In fiscal year 2022, we strove to build and maintain our business resilience to offset the negative impact of the challenging macroeconomic environment and the resurgence of COVID-19 in China (the "2022 Outbreak"). Therefore, we shifted our focus to our United States stores and achieved a remarkable year-over-over revenue growth of 99.6% from them. As a result of our strategic expansion plans, including the opening of new stores in New York City, we generated significant revenue growth from bakery products, beverage products, and eat-in services. Our recent listing on Nasdaq in March 2023 represented a significant milestone for us and a testament to all the hard work and efforts of our dedicated team. Looking ahead, we remain committed to expanding our product selection, opening more stores across the United States, and enhancing our brand awareness to create more value for our shareholders. We are grateful for the trust our customers have placed in us and will continue to develop new products, provide high-quality services and improve customer satisfaction. We believe our capabilities and experience position our company well for long-term growth, and we are confident that our continued growth and expansion will result in greater success in the future."­

Fiscal Year 2022 Financial Results

Revenue

Total revenue decreased by 9.7% to $13.3 million in fiscal year 2022, from $14.7 million in fiscal year 2021. The decrease in the Company's revenue was due to lower revenue from its stores in China, which was partially offset by the increased revenue from its United States stores.

China Stores

  • Revenue from China stores decreased by 25.8% to $9.5 million in fiscal year 2022 from $12.8 million in fiscal year 2021. The decrease was primarily due to decreased revenue from bakery products as well as other products.
  • Revenue from bakery products decreased by 25.6% to $8.7 million in fiscal year 2022 from $11.7 million in fiscal year 2021. The decrease was due to impact by the 2022 Outbreak, which adversely affected the operations of the China stores and the production of the central factory starting from August 10, 2022. Additionally, all the China stores and the central factory were closed between October 5, 2022 and November 30, 2022, during which the China stores only generated limited online sales and group sales.
  • Revenue from other products decreased by 28.6% to $0.8 million in fiscal year 2022 from $1.1 million in fiscal year 2021, among which, revenue from seasonal products decreased by 28.6% to $0.7 million in fiscal year 2022 from $1.0 million in fiscal year 2021, and revenue from beverage products decreased by 28.9% to $0.1 million in fiscal year 2022 from $0.1 million in fiscal year 2021. The impact of the 2022 Outbreak, as mentioned above, contributed to the decline in revenue from these products.

United States Stores

  • Revenue from United States stores increased by 99.6% to $3.8 million in fiscal year 2022 from $1.9 million in fiscal year 2021. The increase was due to increased revenue from beverage products, bakery products, and eat-in services.
  • Revenue from bakery products increased by 29.3% to $0.6 million in fiscal year 2022 from $0.5 million in fiscal year 2021. The increase was primarily due to the opening of Chanson 355 Greenwich LLC ("Chanson Greenwich") in December 2021, a new store that generated an additional $0.25 million in revenue. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of $0.11 million in revenue from Chanson 23rd Street LLC ("Chanson 23rd Street") due to increased competition from rival bakery brands that recently opened new stores in New York City, resulting in customers having more options and affecting sales of Chanson 23rd Street's bakery products.
  • Revenue from beverage products increased by 104.8%, to $2.0 million in fiscal year 2022 from $1.0 million in fiscal year 2021. The increase was mainly due to the $0.6 million increase generated by the newly opened Chanson Greenwich and the $0.4 million increase generated by Chanson 23rd Street. Chanson 23rd Street's cocktail bar launched several new types of cocktail products with a variety of flavors and styles, which became popular among customers and the cocktail bar was often fully booked by reservation during weekends. Meanwhile, Chanson 23rd Street managed to increase the prices of its cocktail products, which resulted in higher revenue.
  • Revenue from eat-in services increased by 166.6%, reaching $1.1 million in fiscal year 2022 from $0.4 million in fiscal year 2021. The increase was mainly due to the addition of the new store, Chanson Greenwich, which generated $0.8 million in increased revenue from eat-in services.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit decreased by 11.9%, to $6.1 million in fiscal year 2022 from $6.9 million in fiscal year 2021, primarily due to the overall decrease in revenue. Gross margin also decreased slightly by 1.2 percentage points to 46.0% in fiscal year 2022 from 47.2% in fiscal year 2021.

Operating Expenses

Operating costs were $7.5 million in fiscal year 2022, compared to $7.4 million in fiscal year 2021.

  • Selling expenses decreased by 10.4%, to $3.7 million in fiscal year 2022 from $4.1 million in fiscal year 2021. The decrease in selling expenses was primarily due to the decrease of $0.6 million from China stores, as the Company's business operation was adversely affected by the 2022 Outbreak, partially offset by a $0.2 million increase in selling expenses incurred by the newly opened Chanson Greenwich.
  • General and administrative expenses increased by 18.3%, to $3.8 million in fiscal year 2022 from $3.2 million in fiscal year 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher general and administrative expenses of $0.6 million related to stores in the United States, including full-year operating costs of the newly opened Chanson Greenwich as well as the higher rental expenses for Chanson 1293 3rd Ave LLC and Chanson 2040 Broadway LLC stores during the renovation period. The increase was partially offset by lower general and administrative expenses of $42,621 related to stores in China, where business operations were adversely affected by the 2022 Outbreak.

Net Income (Loss)

Net loss in fiscal year 2022 was $1.3 million, compared to net income of $0.5 million in fiscal year 2021.

Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share

Basic and diluted loss per share in fiscal year 2022 was $0.14, compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.06 in fiscal year 2021.

Balance Sheet

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had cash of $2.9 million, compared to $3.9 million as of December 31, 2021.

Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operating activities in fiscal year 2022 was $0.6 million, compared to $1.8 million in fiscal year 2021.

Net cash used in investing activities in fiscal year 2022 was $0.9 million, compared to $2.0 million in fiscal year 2021.

Net cash provided by financing activities in fiscal year 2022 was $9,929, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $178,240 in fiscal year 2021.

On April 3, 2023, the Company completed its initial public offering (the "Offering") of 3,390,000 Class A ordinary shares at a public offering price of US$4.00 per Class A ordinary share. The Class A ordinary shares began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on March 30, 2023 under the ticker symbol "CHSN."
