2Q22 Revenue. Note: GABY switched to the U.S. dollar for reporting purposes this quarter from the Canadian dollar previously. All figures are now in U.S. $, unless noted. Reported second quarter revenue fell 44% to $5.2 million, from $9.2 million reported last year, although adjusted for the closure of the wholesale distribution business, revenue was down 26%. On a sequential basis, revenue declined 10.4%. A still difficult operating environment due to lower pricing and reduced demand, combined with increased competition, impacted results.
But GM Held. In spite of the decline in revenue, gross margin was stable. 2Q22 GM was 43.2% versus 44.4% sequentially and 35.0% in the year ago period. Higher sales of proprietary products, control over supplier costs, and overall cost controls contributed to the stable GM. GABY reported a net loss of $3.0 million, or breakeven EPS for the quarter, compared to a net loss of $1.3 million, or breakeven EPS, in 2Q21.
