"We are very pleased to report strong financial results for the second quarter 2013 as revenues grew 66% from the comparable year-ago quarter and margins improved. The quarter was highlighted by the growth in international sales and continued growth in all Domestic channels of distribution. Celsius brand awareness is being driven by multiple marketing efforts including Pandora radio ads, PR events including radio and television interviews and social digital media," said Mr. Gerry David, Chief Executive Officer.
Second Quarter 2013 Financial Results:
Revenue: Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013 totaled $3.02 million as compared to $1.82 million for the same period in 2012, a 66% increase. This increase was driven primarily by increases in international sales totaling $1.38 million and increases in domestic sales totaling $630 thousand, off-set by the elimination of 2012 Costco Wholesale sales of $813 thousand. Domestically, we are seeing double & triple digit growth in all domestic segments, domestic retail accounts are up 46% versus the prior year when excluding Costco sales from 2012, Health & Fitness accounts are up 214%, internet retail accounts are up 156%, and direct to consumer sales are up 28%.
Gross Profit: Gross profits for the three months ended June 30, 2013 totaled $1.19 million or 39% of net sales as compared to $382 thousand or 21% for the same period in 2012. The Company continues to focus on cost savings initiatives and efficiencies to improve gross profit margins.
Operating Expenses: Operating Expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 totaled $1.30 million as compared to $1.43 million for the same period in 2012, a 9% decrease. A significant portion of this decrease is attributable to decreases in option expense off-set by increases in marketing programs and additional investment in human resources.
Net Loss: The Company recorded a net loss of $228,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to a net loss of $1,119,000 for the same quarter a year ago, or ($0.01) and ($0.06) per share, respectively.
For the six months ending June 30, 2013 Financial Results:
Revenue: Net revenues for the six months ending June 30, 2013 totaled $5.36 million as compared to $4.31 million in 2012, a 24% increase. This increase was driven primarily by increases in international sales totaling $1.63 million and increases in domestic sales totaling $1.04 million, off-set by the elimination of 2012 Costco Wholesale sales of $1.62 million. Domestically, we are seeing double & triple digit growth in all domestic segments, domestic retail accounts are up 38% versus the prior year when excluding Costco sales from 2012, Health & Fitness accounts are up 178%, internet retail accounts are up 152%, and direct to consumer sales are up 37%.

Operating Expenses: Operating Expenses for the six months ending June 30, 2013 totaled $2.47 million as compared to $2.77 million for the same period in 2012, an 11% decrease. A significant portion of this decrease is associated with option expense savings and other sales expense savings.
