Shareholder Update Doc Burnstein’s Ice Cream Lab, Inc. First Quarter 2015 Great First Quarter Results The First Quarter of 2015 is the best start to a year Doc Burnstein’s has ever experienced. Sales are up more than the historical average while fixed expenses are holding close to flat, resulting in record profits for the first quarter, (which historically shows losses more often than profits). Wholesale accounts are growing at an even faster rate than retail, and we reintroduced novelties to locations we had discontinued in 2014. To prepare for the next steps in the company’s growth, we see the need to improve in three areas. We are improving our packaging to compete in a grocery environment based on a request to introduce our Mud Pies to the SLO Haggen grocery store. The improved packaging will allow us to expand to other items and other stores. Second, we are focused on process improvements and production efficiencies, while also better monitoring our guest experiences. And third, to address the most important part of the business, our people, we are expanding our staff training and development programs to deliver memorable Guest experiences every time. Stock Sales There have been three stock sale transaction in 2015, each at $80./share, (the same price established with the 2014 stock transactions). While the list of interested buyers continues to grow, the Board of Directors is focused on planning the next major growth step and the possibility of a future stock offering. Sales Growth Q1 Year Over Year Sales Wholesale scoop shop sales are taking off, with our largest customers of Hula Hut (Avila) and Village Bean (Cambria) up 25% over last year. Adding Kettleman City in April 2014 also added a significant amount to the Q1 wholesale increase. 1 Shareholder Update Doc Burnstein’s Ice Cream Lab, Inc. First Quarter 2015 We doubled the number of novelty freezer placements this past quarter, bringing back the three top-‐selling customers we had dropped in 2014. We also started selling So Goods in all our parlors, and at SLO Farmer’s Market. We now have 6 scoop shops, 6 novelty freezer placements, and 10 restaurants carrying Doc’s. We are willing to entertain another scoop shop in the Central Valley and other novelty freezer placements. Arroyo Grande sales are growing, both compared to past years and due to seasonality. Orcutt sees less of a summer surge in sales, and is tracking just a bit above historical levels. SLO opened Jan. 24, 2014, so first quarter comparison is not a trend even though it is below last year due to being closed most of January 2014, followed by the opening hype. SLO looks to be growing about 8-‐10% going forward. To reach the Cal Poly market, we built a 500-‐serving ice cream cake at Open House on April 17, which reaches incoming freshman and parents. It was such a success, Cal Poly asked us to repeat it for Week of Welcome in the fall. Cal Poly students are the key to SLO sales, and we are focusing on reaching this market, while maintaining our outreach to tourists for summer sales. Cost of Goods / Gross Profit Last year we experienced a minimum wage increase of $1. in July 2014, and the price of cream rose from $7.00 to $9.00/gallon. Thankfully, by February 2015 the price of cream dropped back to $6.80 and has maintained this price. Therefore our labor cost is tracking with growth in sales, while Ingredient cost have dropped from last year. The result is an additional $58,000 of Gross Profit over last year. Q1 Year Over Year COGS 2 Shareholder Update Doc Burnstein’s Ice Cream Lab, Inc. First Quarter 2015 Fixed Expenses Fixed Expenses are holding close to last year, and well below budget! Discounts and Promotions are up due to large-‐volume discount on wholesale deliveries, which we started in July 2014 at the time of a wholesale price increase. Q1 Year Over Year Fixed Expenses Income As expected from the good news in sales and expenses, profits are up significantly. Operating Income (EBITDA) and Net Income are greatly above last year. During the First Quarter of 2015 we experienced 7.1% Operating Profit, up from 3.3% in 2014! Q1 Year Over Year Profits 3 Shareholder Update Doc Burnstein’s Ice Cream Lab, Inc. First Quarter 2015 Q1 Net Income History The Net Profit for Q1 2015 is the highest in Company history, as shown below, (shown without Depreciation as that was not accrued monthly prior to 2014). Closing As we head into the busy summer season, we are in the best shape of the company’s history to meet the many opportunities being presented. We have a very talented and dedicated team, doing their jobs impeccably well to move the company forward. Our vision is to become #1 in the Hearts and Minds of Americans for ice cream. Not only because the flavors and quality are second to none, but also because the business model is second to none. A business that serves the needs of shareholders, its staff and the community. A business that allows consumers to make a choice to do good with every purchase, and feel good about themselves in the process. A business with a heart for serving others and God in their words and deeds. I firmly believe that when we are ready for the next stages of the company’s development, God will bring us the opportunities and resources that can bring this company’s message to others. The future is as bright as the promises of God. Thank you for being a major part of Doc Burnstein’s Ice Cream Lab. Greg Steinberger Founder/CEO We know that in all good things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. - Romans 8:28 (NIV) Forward-‐Looking Statements Statements that are n ot based on historical fact are forward-‐looking statements.
