Twin Vee PowerCats Co. Reports an 8% Increase in Revenue for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

FORT PIERCE, FL / ACCESSWIRE / November 13, 2023 / Twin Vee PowerCats Co. (Nasdaq:VEEE) ("Twin Vee" or the "Company"), a designer, manufacturer and distributor of recreational and commercial power boats, today reported operational highlights and financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023.

The Company is pleased to report an 8% increase in consolidated net revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, to $24,980,902 as compared to $23,217,634 in the same period in 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, Twin Vee alone had a net operating loss of $512,466, as compared to a net loss of $341,344 in the prior year. The Twin Vee operating loss is stated before consolidating Twin Vee's electric boat company Forza X1 and the expenses related to opening the new Aquasport Facility in Tennessee. Twin Vee's new Aquasport monohull division contributed a cumulative net loss of $1,113,896, such that the gas-powered segment had a combined net loss of $1,626,362 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to a net loss of $341,344 in the prior year.

Forza X1, Inc. (NASDAQ: FRZA), the electric boat and development subsidiary in which Twin Vee has a 44.35% controlling interest, had a net loss of $4,535,100 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to a net loss of $2,209,238 in the prior year. The consolidated net loss attributed to stockholders of Twin Vee was $4,363,150 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to a consolidated net loss attributed to stockholders of Twin Vee of $2,430,128 in the prior year. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") require Twin Vee to file consolidated financial statements based on Twin Vee's controlling ownership interest in Forza X1, Inc. (Nasdaq: FRZA). Twin Vee, net of Forza X1, had cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities of $8,671,209 as of September 30, 2023.

"The general economic landscape, and the rising interest rate environment are creating challenges and downward pressure on customer demand for most models across both brands," explained Joseph Visconti, CEO and President of Twin Vee PowerCats Co. "Not only are entry level buyers affected by higher interest rates, but cash buyers and boat clubs are also exhibiting reduced appetites. Due to the challenging environment and changing consumer behavior, Twin Vee's executive team is working to effectuate tighter operating controls while looking to the future, smartly developing new models, expanding the dealer network, and laying the groundwork for the next market upswing. While we've concluded it is time to tighten the fiscal belt in terms of controlling operational costs, we believe it is also time to lay the groundwork for when buyers pivot back to consumer driven demand. My team is working hard focusing on controlling costs and developing new and innovative models that will excite the marketplace when the tide turns. Our goal is to not burn cash on operational losses and only spend on infrastructure, product development, and revenue generating investments. For example, our brand-new Gen 2 400 GFX is already in production and a new 280 GFX dual console is soon to follow."

Twin Vee received its building permit to construct an approximately 30,000 square foot addition to its production area. This expansion will bring the total square footage to nearly 100,000 square feet, which will improve production flow and better accommodate new product development.

These factors led the Company to close its White Bluff, Tennessee facility in November 2023 and consolidate its brands under one roof in the Fort Pierce, Florida facility. The Company is dedicated to the AquasportTM brand for which it will continue to design and build new models, including a 240 CC and a 280 CC, both of which will be available over the next two quarters.

"Given the abrupt slowdown in demand, however, the Company's primary objectives are now to tighten spending, as well as to streamline inventory levels across the board," remarked Visconti.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have presented a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure in this earnings release. We believe that this supplemental information is useful to investors because it allows for an evaluation of the company with a focus on the performance of its core operations, including more meaningful comparisons of financial results to historical periods. Adjusted Net Loss is a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes certain non-cash expenses. Our executive management team uses these same non-GAAP measures internally to assess the ongoing performance of the Company. Adjusted Net (Loss) is not intended to be substitutes for any GAAP financial measures, and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry.

Below is a reconciliation of Adjusted Net loss to GAAP net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:
