Q & A Highlights
Q: Can you provide any more details on the financial commitments that you have in hand at this point? A: It is $1 million, and it's from me and Ira.
Q: What do you expect your current cash burn is on a monthly basis at this point? A: It's going to decrease significantly after January, once Rock Quarry comes off. This $1 million gives us the runway we need to implement the private label and some debt strategies. We feel comfortable that this will get us through the short term.
Q: Is this $1 million coming in equity debt, or is it not formal yet at this point? A: It's not formal yet at this point. It should be within the next week.
Q: When do you think you need to do revenue to breakeven at this point or after January? A: A lot of it will depend on the yields and throughput for the Caramel Crunch SKU. We expect to have more visibility on our breakeven point starting March or April. We're getting our costs down significantly to about $4.50 million to $5.50 million range on a monthly expense.
Q: Are the economics of the Caramel Crunch business very similar to your other products? A: It is going to be very similar. We expect to see improved margins on the Caramel Crunch in the later half of the year as we fine-tune the manufacturing process. We're making it from scratch, which should lead to raw material savings and good margins once fully operational.
Q: You've expanded your sales effort quite a bit. Can you talk about how effective that's been and how happy you are with the results so far? A: The sales team has done a great job in a challenging time. Landing the private label customer was a significant achievement for next year. Expanding into non-traditional retail environments shows their dedication and determination to find great retail partners for us. We're also looking at private label yogurt melts and other opportunities in adjacent categories.
