LONGMONT, Colo., May 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- S&W Seed Company (Nasdaq: SANW), or S&W, today announced financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Financial Highlights
Management Discussion
"The strategic actions we have taken during the past year to reposition S&W's focus on our high-value, high-margin sorghum trait technology were clearly beginning to deliver results during the most recent third quarter (January through March 2025) culminating in year-over-year revenue growth, strong improvement in gross margins, and our first positive Adjusted EBITDA quarter in many years," commented Mark Herrmann, CEO of S&W Seed Company. "However, certain tariffs that went into effect in April 2025 have impacted our outlook for the current fourth quarter of our fiscal year largely due to a decline in customer exports to China and general market uncertainty, causing us to revise our overall fiscal 2025 expectations. China has historically been the largest export buyer of sorghum; however, recent reports indicate Chinese customers have largely pulled out of the market causing a near-term disruption. Once market equilibrium is reestablished, we believe we are poised to continue growing market share with our high value, high margin Double Team and Prussic Acid Free sorghum trait solutions which continue to receive strong endorsements from the domestic sorghum community."
"Longer-term, we are optimistic that the nutritional characteristics of sorghum, specifically that its high protein, non-GMO, and gluten-free will allow it to gain traction. As the leader in sorghum trait technology solutions, we believe this bodes well for future demand of the crop and our ability to deliver increased ROI to farmers," Herrmann concluded.
Financial Results
Total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was $9.6 million compared to total revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 of $9.4 million. The $0.2 million growth was driven by a $0.6 million increase in non-dormant alfalfa sales in Mexico, a $0.4 million increase in conventional grain sorghum sales in the U.S., and a $0.2 million increase from the initial launch of Prussic Acid Free in the U.S. These increases were partially offset by declines of $0.5 million in sorghum sales in Asia, $0.3 million in sorghum sales in Mexico, and $0.2 million in dormant alfalfa sales in the United States.
Gross profit margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was 37.7% compared to gross profit margin for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 of 24.6%. The gross profit percentage increase was primarily driven by improved life cycle management, improved international margins due to shift from non-dormant alfalfa mix to sorghum, and improved margins due to a shift from conventional sorghum to higher margin Prussic Acid Free sorghum.
GAAP operating expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 were $4.3 million compared to GAAP operating expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 of $5.5 million. This decrease was due to a $1.0 million decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses and a $0.2 million decrease in depreciation and amortization costs.
Adjusted operating expenses (see Table A1) were $3.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to $4.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
Net loss from continuing operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was ($2.2) million, or ($1.04) per basic and diluted share, compared to ($4.8) million, or ($2.11) per basic and diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Net loss from discontinued operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was ($0.0) million, or ($0.01) per basic and diluted share, compared to ($0.7) million, or ($0.29) per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2024. GAAP net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was ($2.2) million, or ($1.04) per basic and diluted share, compared to ($5.5) million, or ($2.41) per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
Adjusted net loss (see Table A2) for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was ($1.2) million, or ($0.57) per basic and diluted share, excluding the loss from discontinued operations, interest expense - amortization of debt discount, non-recurring transaction costs, dividends accrued for participating securities and accretion, and equity in loss of equity method investee (Vision Bioenergy), net of tax. Adjusted net loss (see Table A2) for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was ($4.1) million, or ($1.79) per basic and diluted share, excluding the loss from discontinued operations, interest expense - amortization of debt discount, non-recurring transaction costs, dividends accrued for participating securities and accretion, and equity in loss of equity method investee (Vision Bioenergy), net of tax.
Adjusted EBITDA (see Table B) for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was $0.2 million compared to Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 of ($2.2) million.
Fiscal 2025 Guidance
The Company is updating its expectations for fiscal 2025 revenue to be in the range of $29.0 to $31.0 million. The change in expectations is primarily due to expected continuing disruptions within the U.S. sorghum market due to decreased exports by customers to China and general market uncertainty. In fiscal 2024, comparable revenue from continuing operations was $38.0 million, which excludes revenue generated by the Company's former Australian subsidiary.
The Company now expects Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of ($8.5) to ($7.0) million for fiscal 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to financial results reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, S&W has provided the following non-GAAP financial measures in this release and the accompanying tables: Adjusted EBITDA; adjusted operating expenses; as well as adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share. S&W uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to facilitate period-to-period comparisons and analysis of its operating performance and liquidity, and believes they are useful to investors as a supplement to GAAP measures in analyzing, trending and benchmarking the performance and value of its business. However, these measures are not intended to be a substitute for those reported in accordance with GAAP. These measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
For reconciliations of historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable financial measures under GAAP, see Tables A1, A2, and B accompanying this release. We have not reconciled our guidance for Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2025 to net loss because the reconciling line items that impact net loss, including interest expense, non-cash stock-based compensation, foreign currency loss, and equity in loss of equity method investee (Vision Bioenergy), net of tax, among others, are uncertain or out of our control and cannot be reasonably predicted. The actual amount of these items during fiscal 2025 will have a significant impact on net loss. Accordingly, a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to its most directly comparable GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts.
In order to calculate these non-GAAP financial measures, S&W makes targeted adjustments to certain GAAP financial line items found on its condensed consolidated statement of operations, backing out non-recurring or unique items that we believe otherwise distort the underlying results and trends of the ongoing business. S&W has excluded the following items from one or more of its non-GAAP financial measures for the periods presented:
Selling, general and administrative expenses; operating expenses. S&W excludes from operating expenses depreciation and amortization and a portion of SG&A expense related to non-recurring transaction costs and, for its Adjusted EBITDA calculation, also non-cash stock-based compensation. S&W excludes non-recurring transaction costs from S&W's total operating expenses to provide investors a method to compare its operating results to prior periods and to peer companies, as such amounts can vary significantly based on the frequency of restructuring or acquisition events and the magnitude of restructuring or acquisition expenses.
Net loss on discontinued operations: S&W excludes the net loss on discontinued operations, as this is outside of the scope of normal operations and is related to the disposal and operations of S&W Australia, which is no longer applicable. S&W believes it is important to exclude this amount in order to better understand its business performance.
Foreign currency loss. The foreign currency loss represents fluctuations from changes in exchange rates that are uncertain or out of S&W's control and cannot be reasonably predicted. S&W believes it is useful to exclude this amount in order to better understand its business performance and allow investors to compare its results with peer companies.
Interest expense – amortization of debt discount. Amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs are primarily related to S&W's working capital lines of credit and term loans. These amounts are non-cash charges and are unrelated to its core performance during any particular period. S&W believes it is useful to exclude these amounts in order to better understand its business performance and allow investors to compare its results with peer companies.
Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net primary consists of interest incurred on S&W's working capital credit facilities, the MFP Loan, the AgAmerica loan, and equipment capital leases. S&W believes it is useful to exclude these amounts in order to better understand its business performance and allow investors to compare its results with peer companies.
Dividends accrued for participating securities and accretion. Dividends accrued for participating securities and accretion relates to dividends accrued for the Series B convertible preferred stock and the accretion for the discount related to the warrants issued in conjunction with the Series B convertible preferred stock. S&W believes it is useful to exclude these amounts in order to better understand its business performance and allow investors to compare its results with peer companies.
Equity in loss of equity method investee (Vision Bioenergy), net of tax. This loss represents S&W's percentage of Vision Bioenergy's loss for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, as it has significant influence in Vision Bioenergy. S&W believes it is useful to exclude these amounts in order to better understand its business performance and allow investors to compare its results with peer companies.
Descriptions of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this release and the accompanying tables are as follows:
Adjusted Operating Expenses. S&W defines adjusted operating expenses as GAAP operating expenses adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization, loss (gain) on disposal of property, plant and equipment, and non-recurring transaction costs. S&W believes that the use of adjusted operating expenses is useful to investors and other users of its financial statements in evaluating its operating performance because it provides a method to compare its operating results to prior periods and to peer companies after making adjustments for depreciation and amortization and amounts that are not expected to recur.
Adjusted net loss and loss per share. S&W defines adjusted net loss as net loss attributable to S&W less interest expense – amortization of debt discount, non-recurring transaction costs, dividends accrued for participating securities and accretion, and equity in loss of equity method investee (Vision Bioenergy), net of tax. S&W believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information for evaluating its operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA. S&W defines Adjusted EBITDA as net loss attributable to S&W adjusted to exclude net loss from discontinued operations, interest expense, net, interest expense – amortization of debt discount, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-recurring transaction costs, non-cash stock-based compensation, foreign currency loss, equity in loss of equity method investee (Vision Bioenergy), net of tax, and dividends accrued for participating securities and accretion. S&W believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and other users of its financial statements in evaluating its operating performance because it provides them with an additional tool to compare business performance across companies and across periods. S&W uses Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with traditional GAAP operating performance measures as part of its overall assessment of its performance, for planning purposes, including the preparation of its annual operating budget, to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies and to communicate with its Board concerning its financial performance. Management does not place undue reliance on Adjusted EBITDA as its only measure of operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a substitute for other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP.
