Better Choice Company Reports Second Quarter 2020 Financial Results
--

NEW YORK, NY, August 18, 2020 -- Better Choice Company, Inc. (OTCQB: BTTR) (the “Company” or “Better Choice”), an animal health and wellness company, today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.

“We are excited to share our second quarter 2020 results with the investor community. We have made significant progress at Better Choice in the first half of 2020, including integrating the recent Halo acquisition, expanding our e-commerce platform and accelerating our international business in Asia,” said Werner von Pein, CEO of Better Choice.

“The e-commerce and direct-to-consumer channels account for approximately 60% of our sales. Recent events surrounding COVID-19 have accelerated the shift toward online purchases of pet products, and Better Choice is well positioned in these channels of trade and in a strong position to benefit from this secular tailwind. We expect e-commerce could grow 20%+ annually over the medium term. Our international business is equally as exciting and is currently doing annual run-rate sales of approximately $10 million. We began shipping our products directly to mainland China in June, after receiving our product import registrations from the Chinese government earlier this year. Currently, we are shipping around eight containers per month and generating approximately $500,000 in monthly sales under this initiative. We continue to expect growth in Asia and are excited by the first-mover advantage Better Choice has in the continent.”
