Overview
Products

DHB’s product portfolio consists of sleep aid/anxiety relief formulations, and pain relief products
Follows an asset-light model by outsourcing manufacturing and packaging to established entities in North America
Two Primary Brands: Dream Water (sold in the U.S./Canada/the Middle East), and LivRelief (sold in Canada)

Dream Water drove ~90% of revenue this quarter, vs 84% a year ago
Extensive Distribution

Source: Company
Available at 30k+ outlets in the U.S., and Canada, including major retailers, airports, and pharmacy chains
Financials (Year-End: June 30th)

Q1 revenue rose 1% YoY, missing our estimate by 2%
Canadian revenue remains pressured by softer sales of DHB’s licensed cannabis infused products
Gross margins fell 4 pp, missing our estimate by 2 pp; management cited channel, customer, and product mix, though details were not disclosed. We will monitor whether the decline is temporary or longer-term

* Historically, quarterly revenue has been volatile due to the timing of orders from large customers
SG&A expenses rose 9% YoY, in line with our estimate

Marketing expenses fell 8 pp YoY to 13% of revenue, following last year’s unusually high spend on a major marketing program; for context, industry peers spend 10–20% of revenue; we expect expenses to pick up in coming quarters, trending back toward last year’s ~15% level

Depreciation expenses fell as the company fully amortized its intangible assets and PPE. With no new CAPEX planned due to its asset-light business approach, we are lowering our depreciation estimates

EPS turned positive: ($0.018) → $0.001, aided by higher revenue and lower marketing & depreciation expenses, while we were anticipating a small loss

Balance sheet strength remains intact

No outstanding options/warrants are in-the-money
FRC Projections and Valuation

We now expect EPS to turn positive this year, supported by lower depreciation despite softer revenue

Source: FRC
As a result of lower revenue, our DCF valuation declined from $0.92 to $0.86/share
Comparables Valuation

Source: FRC / S&P Capital IQ
The average sector forward EV/Revenue is down 3% since our previous report in October
DHB is trading at a 54% discount to comparables
Using the average sector EV/Revenue, we arrived at a comparables valuation of $0.59/share (previously $0.62/share)
We are reiterating our BUY rating, while adjusting our fair value estimate from $0.77 to $0.73/share (the average of our DCF and comparables valuations). Valuation metrics suggest DHB remains modestly priced relative to peers. We believe DHB is well-positioned for growth through its strong distribution network, and planned M&A. Robust organic growth is expected, supported by rising awareness of sleep’s role in health, and expansion into new geographic markets.
