CARLSBAD, Calif., Sept. 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Natural Alternatives International, Inc. (“NAI”) (Nasdaq: NAII), a leading formulator, manufacturer, and marketer of customized nutritional supplements, today announced a net loss of $1.9 million, or ($0.32) per diluted share, on net sales of $29.5 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 compared to a net income of $2.0 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year.
Net sales during the three months ended June 30, 2024, decreased $6.4 million, or 18%, to $29.5 million as compared to $35.9 million recorded in the comparable prior year period. During the same period, private-label contract manufacturing sales decreased 14% to $27.6 million. Private-label contract manufacturing sales decreased primarily due to reduced orders from one of our larger customers associated with their efforts to reduce excess on-hand inventories, partially offset by increased shipments from other existing customers and shipments to new customers.
CarnoSyn® beta-alanine royalty, licensing and raw material sales revenue decreased 48% to $1.85 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024, as compared to $3.57 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023. The decrease in CarnoSyn® beta-alanine royalty, licensing, and raw material sales revenue during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 was primarily due to decreased raw material sales and unfavorable changes in estimates for volume rebates.
Our net loss for fiscal year 2024 was $7.2 million, or ($1.23) per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.5 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, for fiscal year 2023.
Net sales during the year ended June 30, 2024, decreased $40.2 million, or 26%, to $113.8 million as compared to $154.0 million recorded in the comparable prior year period. During the year ended June 30, 2024, private-label contract manufacturing sales decreased 27% to $105.4 million, as compared to $145.3 million in the comparable prior period. CarnoSyn® beta-alanine royalty, licensing and raw material sales revenue decreased 3% to $8.4 million during the fiscal 2024, as compared to $8.7 million for fiscal 2023.
We experienced a loss from operations during the three and twelve months ended June 30, 2024. This was primarily due to a slowdown in sales across our private-label contract manufacturing segment. Although our overall sales forecast for fiscal 2025 includes a significant increase in sales as compared to fiscal 2024, we currently anticipate we will experience a net loss in the first half of fiscal 2025, net income in the second half of fiscal 2025, and we will break-even or have a slight profit for the full fiscal 2025 year.
As of June 30, 2024, we had cash of $12.0 million and working capital of $38.1 million, compared to $13.6 million and $41.1 million respectively, as of June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, we had $12.0 million of borrowing capacity on our credit facility of which we had outstanding borrowings of $3.4 million.
Mark A. Le Doux, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NAI stated, “As planned, our Carlsbad powder facility re-opened in the fourth quarter with on-going production to meet our customer requirements. We continue to gain traction with new business opportunities and expect these efforts to bear fruit in the coming months. Our new business opportunity pipeline remains healthy, and we are optimistic these opportunities will generate positive sales growth and pave our pathway back to profitability.”
“We recently attended the ESPEN conference in Milan, Italy where we debuted our groundbreaking new patent pending carnosine boosting ingredient called TriBsynTM to researchers, healthcare professionals, and brands within the medical foods industry. This was an exciting event for us to introduce TriBsynTM which is the world’s first paresthesia free beta-alanine to the industry, and we are encouraged by the reception it received.”
