KIRKLAND, Wash. — GrowLife, Inc. (OTC: PHOT) (“GrowLife” or the “Company”), one of the nation’s most recognized indoor cultivation product and service providers, today announced financial results for the period ending June 30, 2019, and provided an overview of recent operational highlights from that quarter and the first half of 2019. The company experienced surging growth over last year, showing an 82% increase in revenue over Q2 2018, from $1.2 million to over $2.2 million in Q2 2019. Additionally, the company continued to make significant progress towards profitability, reporting $1.4m in gross profit for the six month period ending June 30, 2019, a 669% increase over the same period last year. This was due to a major shift in profit margins, which increased to 31% in Q2 2019 compared to just 9% in Q2 2019.
“Beyond almost triple-digit revenue growth and almost surpassing last year’s revenue in just the first half of this year, I could not be more proud of the team’s performance that led to an increase in our gross profit of over 600% year-over-year,” said GrowLife CEO Marco Hegyi. “As we continue to shift from a commodity business to a full-scale manufacturer of the industry’s leading cloning solution, our margins continue to increase and we continue to focus on profitability. As the cannabis industry, and more specifically the hemp-CBD market continues to experience explosive growth across the globe, GrowLife is extremely well-positioned to take advantage of this market opportunity through our innovative cloning product offering. This is illustrated in the fact that our revenue for the first six months of this year represents nearly all revenue generated in 2018.”
“As we look to bring further innovation in cultivation technologies, we utilized this quarter to continue to invest and build out manufacturing capacity in order to meet our increasing backlog of orders as well as the further growing demand for the EZ-CLONE product line. We are extremely confident that through our strategic investment in EZ CLONE, we have positioned ourselves very well to capitalize on these expanding market opportunities. Where EZ CLONE was able to create a quality product with steady growth, GrowLife has propelled it into an international brand being utilized by some of the largest grow operations in the world.”
