NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / November 19, 2024 / 1847 Holdings LLC ("1847" or the "Company") (NYSE American:EFSH), a holding company specializing in identifying over-looked, deep value investment opportunities in middle market businesses, today provided a business update and reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Q3 2024 Highlights and Subsequent Events

• Cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $10.2 million as of September 30, 2024

• Disposition of ICU Eyewear; eliminated $4.8 million of net liabilities from the balance sheet

• Sold High Mountain Door & Trim Inc. ("HMDT"), a division of 1847 Cabinets for approximately $17 million, more than double the original purchase price

• Completed $11.1 million public offering; eliminated $6.9 million of additional debt from the balance sheet

• Signed definitive agreement to acquire the previously announced millwork, cabinetry, and door manufacturer based in Las Vegas, Nevada (the "Target") with unaudited revenue of $33.1 million and net income of $10.4 million for the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2024. Scheduled to close on or before December 3, 2024

Mr. Ellery W. Roberts, CEO of 1847 Holdings, commented, "We believe the past few months have been transformative for 1847 Holdings as we executed a series of strategic initiatives designed to position the Company for sustained growth and maximize shareholder value over the long term. We remain committed to executing our strategic arbitrage model-acquiring undervalued companies, enhancing their performance, and selling them for a profit. This strategy allows us to leverage market inefficiencies by acquiring assets at lower valuations, improving their operational or financial performance, and then unlocking value through sales or spin-offs at higher valuations. A prime example of our strategy is the recent sale of HMDT. By effectively executing our approach to enhance asset value-sometimes beyond what is reflected in the Company's reported financials-we were able to sell the business for $17 million, more than double its original purchase price, despite a trailing twelve month net loss of approximately $2.3 million attributable to 1847 Holdings. This highlights our ability to unlock value through operational improvements and strategic decision-making.

"We aim to replicate this model with our next acquisition Target, which reported a net income of $10.4 million for the trailing twelve months ending September 30, 2024, with a purchase price of approximately $18.75 million. We ended the third quarter of 2024 with $10.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash that can be used in part to close this transaction. Additionally, the successful completion of our $11.1 million public offering allowed us to eliminate $6.9 million of debt, significantly strengthening our balance sheet. The disposition of ICU Eyewear further reduced net liabilities by $4.8 million. With a strong acquisition pipeline, we expect the upcoming acquisition to significantly boost profitability, deliver substantial cash flow, and negate the need for near-term capital raises. We believe these efforts establish a robust platform for sustainable growth and enhanced shareholder value. By leveraging our industry expertise and operational acumen, we intend to continue to identify and capitalize on high-return opportunities, reinforcing our proven growth model. We remain dedicated to driving value through strategic acquisitions as we expand and fortify our portfolio for long-term success," concluded Mr. Roberts.

About 1847 Holdings LLC

1847 Holdings LLC (NYSE American: EFSH), a publicly traded diversified acquisition holding company, was founded by Ellery W. Roberts, a former partner of Parallel Investment Partners, Saunders Karp & Megrue, and Principal of Lazard Freres Strategic Realty Investors. 1847 Holdings' investment thesis is that capital market inefficiencies have left the founders and/or stakeholders of many small business enterprises or lower-middle market businesses with limited exit options despite the intrinsic value of their business. Given this dynamic, 1847 Holdings can consistently acquire businesses it views as "solid" for reasonable multiples of cash flow and then deploy resources to strengthen the infrastructure and systems of those businesses in order to improve operations. These improvements may lead to a sale or IPO of an operating subsidiary at higher valuations than the purchase price and/or alternatively, an operating subsidiary may be held in perpetuity and contribute to 1847 Holdings' ability to pay regular and special dividends to shareholders.
