Big Rock Brewery Inc. Announces Third Quarter Financial Results
(firmenpresse) - CALGARY, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired) -- 11/06/14 -- Big Rock Brewery Inc. (TSX: BR) ("Big Rock" or the "Corporation") announced its financial results today for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
The Corporation reported a net income of $764 thousand and $730 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to net income of $1,217 and $2,678 for the same periods in 2013. These results are attributed to a reduction in sales volumes. Reported sales volumes decreased 7.2% to 48,376 hectolitres ("hl") for the third quarter of 2014 as compared to 52,110 hl for the same quarter of 2014. Sales volumes decreased 11.3% to 129,074 hl for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 145,475 hl for the same nine month period in 2013. Excluding the impact of the discontinuance of certain products and the discontinuance or delayed introduction of certain package configurations, the volume decrease for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 would be 2,181 hl (4.3%) and 12,117 hl (8.6%), respectively.
"Our limited release product introductions are gaining traction and beginning to mitigate the impact of continuing competition in the crowded craft beer market in Alberta," said Bob Sartor, CEO. "We are on track to begin replacing previously discontinued full-time beers with better, higher margin offerings. The first of these will make its appearance in the fourth quarter of 2014. These new product introductions will help drive sales in the competitive Alberta market."
With respect to the Big Rock's efforts in markets outside of Alberta, Mr. Sartor commented, "We expect to commence brewing operations in our new Vancouver brewery by December and we are excited to begin releasing full-time and seasonal beers brewed in B.C. specifically for that market in January 2015. We have also announced a brewpub to be located in Toronto's vibrant Liberty Village neighbourhood, where we intend that next year we can start to showcase and share our innovation through existing and new Ontario-specific beers."
