Second quarter 2021 operating results:

Second quarter revenues represent the largest quarterly revenues in Organto’s history and the eighth consecutive quarter of record revenue growth compared to the same quarter a year earlier. As volumes continued to increase as expected, revenue for the quarter was impacted by a combination of lower than expected avocado selling prices due to increased supply from an earlier than expected start of the season. Peruvian exportation, and logistical problems resulting from the timing and availability of containers needed to supply Europe.
• Record gross profit of $ 648,987 or 12.1% of revenue compared to $ 232,504 or 10.7% of revenue the previous year, an increase of approximately 179%. The second quarter 2021 gross margin represents the highest quarterly gross margin in the history of the Company and an increase of 250 basis points from the previous quarter, thanks to a higher mix of private label and branded products value-added.
• Overhead expenses paid for the quarter amounted to 26.3% of revenues compared to 26.8% the previous year. These costs include expenses of approximately $ 436,900 related to the development of retail branded products and online digital transformation activities, costs related to the acquisition and costs related to the successful filing of the base shelf prospectus of the Company, all of which are expected to generate positive future benefits. Excluding these investments, general expenses paid were reduced to 18.2% of revenues in the second quarter.
