Starco Brands Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
SANTA MONICA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Starco Brands, Inc. (the 'Company' or 'Starco Brands') (OTCQB: STCB), inventor and acquirer of consumer products and brands, today reported financial results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025. Management Comments Starco Brands Chairman & CEO Ross Sklar said: 'Our first-half performance demonstrates strong customer demand and our team's proven expertise in driving operational excellence. As a house of brands, Starco Brands continues to enhance efficiency and innovation while improving profitability across our portfolio of companies. We improved first-half Adjusted EBITDA by $1.9 million year-over-year while reducing operating expenses by 32%, excluding non-cash items, through decisive actions including workforce optimization and the strategic exit of unprofitable SKUs and underperforming retail channels. As we enter the high-selling season in the second half of 2025, we are exceptionally well-positioned to capitalize on this momentum and deliver strong results.' Mr. Sklar continued, 'We continue to move towards the transformational merger and integration of The Starco Group by year-end. This strategic combination will realize our long-held vision of creating a fully vertically integrated consumer products manufacturing and branded platform that unlocks synergies and growth opportunities and delivers the scale needed to compete on a global level.' Second Quarter of 2025 Financial Results Reported net revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $11.0 million, compared to $15.0 million in the second quarter of 2024. Gross profit was $4.4 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $5.7 million in the second quarter of 2024. The year-over-year decline was primarily due to intentional portfolio optimization, where the Company strategically exited unprofitable SKUs and specific retail channels. The Company is prioritizing profitability by focusing resources on its higher margin direct-to-consumer and e-commerce channels. Marketing, General and Administrative expenses decreased to $3.2 million, or 29% of reported net revenue in the second of 2025, compared to $4.5 million, or 30% of reported net revenue in the second quarter of 2024. Compensation expense decreased to $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2024. Professional fees decreased to $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2024. The year-over-year reduction in operating expenses reflects headcount adjustments and operational improvements implemented during the second quarter of 2025. No fair value share adjustment was recorded in the second quarter of 2025, compared to a loss of $8.7 million in the second quarter of 2024. Reported unadjusted net loss for the second quarter of 2025 improved to $1.8 million, compared to a net loss of $11.6 million in the second quarter of 2024. The year-over-year reduction was primarily due to non-recurring period impacts, including a $8.7 million loss from changes in the fair value of stock payable to Soylent stockholders. First Six Months of 2025 Financial Results Reported net revenue for the first six months of 2025 was $21.9 million, compared to $30.2 million for the first six months of 2024. The year-over-year decline was primarily due to intentional portfolio optimization, where the Company strategically exited unprofitable SKUs and specific retail channels to focus resources on the Company's higher margin direct-to-consumer and e-commerce channels. Gross profit was $9.2 million for the first six months of 2025, compared to $12.7 million for the first six months of 2024. Marketing, General and Administrative expenses for the first six months of 2025 decreased to $6.6 million, or 30% of reported net revenue, compared to $9.8 million, or 33% of reported net revenue for the first six months of 2024. Compensation expense was $3.4 million for the first six months of 2025, compared to $5.0 million for the first six months of 2024. Professional fees were $1.7 million for the first six months of 2025, compared to $2.3 million for the first six months of 2024. The decrease in operating expenses reflects headcount adjustments, lower contractor services, lower royalty costs and the elimination of several vendor services. For the first six months of 2025 there was a gain on far value share adjustment of $3.7 million, compared to a loss of $10.6 million for the first six months of 2024. Reported unadjusted net income for the first six months of 2025 improved to $28,839, as compared to net loss of $16.0 million for the first six months of 2024. The year-over-year reduction was primarily driven by a fair value gain of $3.7 million related to share-based adjustments recognized in the first six months of 2025. The prior year period was negatively impacted by a loss of $10.6 million associated with changes in the fair value of stock payable to Soylent stockholders. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA, which is net loss adjusted for stock-based compensation, gain on disposal of property and equipment, one-time expenses that the Company reasonable believes will not gain on settlements, interest and other expense, net, depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of intangible assets, (recovery) provision for doubtful accounts, and provision for income taxes and certain other items that impact the periods presented. Adjusted EBITDA is provided so that investors have the same financial data that management uses to assess the Company's operating results with the belief that it will assist the investment community in properly assessing the ongoing performance of the Company for the periods being reported and future periods. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income (loss) and is defined differently by different companies, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. For reconciliation of GAAP Net Income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA, see our reports we file from time-to-time with the SEC, which are available to read at Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of approximately $221,000 for the second quarter of 2025, compared to a loss of $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA for the first six months of 2025 was a loss of approximately $188,000, compared to a loss of $2.1 million for the first six months of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. See the supplementary schedules in this press release for a reconciliation thereof to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Balance Sheet As of June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately $0.9 million in cash, and approximately $8.4 million in inventory on its balance sheet compared to $1.2 million in cash, and approximately $8.2 million in inventory on its balance sheet as of December 31, 2024.

Seth Klarman's Baupost picks up beaten-down shares, raises Alphabet stake
Baupost Group's Seth Klarman picked up several beaten-down stocks last quarter, while increasing its big stake in Google parent Alphabet to take advantage of the rebound in technology. The widely-followed hedge fund manager took a new, $154 million stake in fintech services provider Fiserv , according to the latest regulatory filing. Fiserv recently nosedived after cutting its forecast for annual revenue growth, bringing the stock's six-month loss to 42%. Baupost also added a $51 million bet on packaging firm Amcor Plc and a $24 million stake in Brazilian payments company PagSeguro Digital in the second quarter. The Boston-based hedge fund also hiked its stake in Alphabet last quarter, by 27% to a holding worth $464 million at the end of June. Alphabet, whose shares rallied 14% in the second quarter, is now Baupost's second-largest position, trailing only Swiss mobile and broadband provider Sunrise Communications . Baupost's top holdings at the end of June also included Wesco International , Willis Towers Watson and asphalt and cement maker CRH PLC . The billionaire hedge fund manager has been an almost religious follower of Benjamin Graham's investing style, buying out-of-favor and undervalued assets to ensure a margin of safety. As a result, Klarman has drawn comparisons to Warren Buffett for his patient, disciplined approach, leading some to dub him "The Oracle of Boston" in a nod to "The Oracle of Omaha." The 68-year-old Harvard and Cornell grad published his investment book, "Margin of Safety," in 1991. A long out-of-print cult favorite, a used copy of "Margin of Safety" now fetches almost $4,000 on Amazon . Klarman recently helped update the investment bible " Security Analysis " by Benjamin Graham and David Dodd, written in 1934 in the depths of the Great Depression. Klarman co-founded Baupost in 1982 , when the firm had just $27 million in assets. It scored a 20% average annualized return for the next few decades, posting its best year in 2017, with a 52% return, specializing in buying distressed debt and mortgage securities that had bottomed. However, as growth stocks and technology shares have continued to lead the stock market after a decade of outperformance, value investors like Klarman have struggled with underperformance in recent years. Baupost has returned only about 4% a year in the last decade, and investors have withdrawn roughly $7 billion from the hedge fund over the past three years, according to Bloomberg News.
