Driven Deliveries Reports Record Revenue of $5.7 Million in Second Quarter 2020
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Driven Deliveries Inc. (the "Company" or "Driven") (OTCQB: DRVD), one of California's fastest-growing online cannabis retailers and direct-to-consumer logistics companies, today announced its financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2020 during which the Company reported record revenue of $5.7 million.
Christian Schenk, CEO of Driven Deliveries, commented, "We reported record revenue in the second quarter of 2020 of $5.7 million, a 158% sequential increase over revenue of $2.2 million during the first quarter of 2020. This significant increase was driven by the impact of our strategic plan to become a 'direct-to-consumer' e-commerce business and discontinue our dispensary-to-consumer delivery business. We are pleased with the progress we have made repositioning the Company as we start to see the financial impact of this strategy take hold. Market conditions under the COVID-19 pandemic, coinciding with the shelter-in-place orders issued across the State of California, allowed for strong revenue growth, leading to a ramp in sales volumes starting in March and continuing through the entire second quarter."
"During the quarter we invested heavily in building out our technology infrastructure, personnel and intellectual property, including our advanced data analytics and marketing capabilities. These investments provided us with the platform to scale our operations and capitalize on increases in demand, while maintaining a best-in-class customer experience. In particular, our new data science program, Driven by Numbers, allows us to track improvements across our operations to attract and retain customers. This robust digital sales tool prepared the Company to excel during a period of high order volume and deliver the best customer experience to online cannabis buyers. We also saw a major increase in new customers, with more than 14,000 new customers acquired during the quarter. Maintaining a high customer retention rate, which is currently at 88%, will remain a priority going forward, as well as continued growth in our total number of customers. As the company scales, we expect to report further decreases in our Cost of Customer Acquisition ("COA"), driving margin expansion," continued Mr. Schenk.
"Our e-commerce and distribution agreement with Stem Holdings is a key development in our growth strategy. With this collaboration we expect to expand our footprint in the California market and broaden our offering for customers," concluded Mr. Schenk.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded revenue in the amount of $5,672,305, including product sales of $5,626,541.

The change in revenue between the three months ended June 30, 2020, and 2019 resulted from the Company expanding its operations and acquisition of Ganjarunner in 2019, the acquisition of Budee in 2020, and the Company's pivot to the a direct to consumer delivery service and the acquisition of other cannabis delivery services.
Revenue for the second quarter 2020 includes revenue from the acquisition of Ganjarunner Inc., the asset purchase of Mountain High Recreation, and the acquisition of Budee Inc., which closed on June 24, 2019, July 10, 2019 and February 27, 2020 respectively.
Gross profit was a negative $73,763 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to gross profit of $17,340 for the same period the year prior. Cost of Sales consists of Product Costs of $2,485,730 and Fulfilment Costs of $3,260,338, for a total Cost of Goods Sold of $5,746,068. As an online retailer, all delivery expenses such as the cost of drivers, fuel, insurance, etc. are included in Cost of Sales, in accordance with tax code 180e, which impacted gross margins, but optimized the overall cost structure of the Company in preparation for future growth.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we incurred a loss from operations of $3,123,512. This is due to professional fees of $396,563, compensation of $1,435,698 including stock-based compensation of $971,633, general and administrative of $936,871 and sales and marketing of $280,617. The cost of being public created significant additional professional services fees for both legal, audit, and accounting services to support not only the Company but also the acquisition targets. The Company also invested significantly in its infrastructure, including building out its marketing and intellectual property platform to support customer acquisition and revenue growth
During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we incurred a loss from operations of $1,570,224. This is due to professional fees of $341,133, compensation of $959,470 including stock-based compensation of $623,939, general and administrative of $234,568 and sales and marketing of $52,503.
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, our net loss was $3,761,652 as compared to net loss of $1,568,835 for the prior period June 30, 2019. The increase in net loss of $2,192,817 was related primarily to the Company pivoting to a new business model and the cost of integrating acquisitions and the gain on the extinguishment of debt.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had $0.22 million of cash, compared with $0.27 million of cash as of December 31, 2019. Subsequent to the quarter the Company raised approximately $2.35 million in gross proceeds.
