CARLSBAD, Calif., May 14, 2025 (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 $2.2 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, on net sales of $28.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 compared to a net loss of $1.6 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, in the third quarter of the prior fiscal year.

Net sales during the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased $3.6 million, or 14%, to $28.8 million as compared to $25.1 million recorded in the comparable prior year period. During the same period, private-label contract manufacturing sales increased 20% to $27.1 million, primarily due to increased orders from several of our larger customers and shipments to new customers.

CarnoSyn^® beta-alanine royalty, licensing and raw material sales revenue decreased 36% to $1.7 million during the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, as compared to $2.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024, primarily due to a decrease in orders from existing customers.

Our net loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, was $6.4 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $5.3 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, for the nine months ended March 31, 2024.

Net sales during the nine months ended March 31, 2025, increased $11.7 million, or 14%, to $96.0 million as compared to $84.3 million recorded in the comparable prior year period. During the nine months ended March 31, 2025, private-label contract manufacturing sales increased 16% to $90.0 million, as compared to $77.7 million in the comparable prior period. CarnoSyn^® beta-alanine royalty, licensing and raw material sales revenue decreased 9% to $6.0 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2025, as compared to $6.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2024.

While we grew our net sales during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the prior year periods, we continued to experience a loss from operations due primarily to the underutilization of our factory capacities, lower beta-alanine royalty and licensing revenue, and increased operating expenses primarily related to legal costs, selling, general and administrative, salaries and wages. Manufacturing costs were also negatively impacted by increased labor, foreign currency exchange rates, operating supplies, rent, and freight costs. Although our overall sales forecast for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 includes an increase in sales as compared to fiscal 2024, we anticipate we will experience an overall net loss for fiscal 2025.

As of March 31, 2025, we had cash of $10.6 million and working capital of $35.2 million, compared to $12.0 million and $38.1 million respectively, as of June 30, 2024. As of March 31, 2025, we had $8.5 million of borrowing capacity on our credit facility of which we had outstanding borrowings of $2.0 million.

Mark A. Le Doux, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NAI stated, “We are encouraged by our continued growth in top line revenue as it reflects the accomplishments our sales teams have garnered in cultivating new customer relationships along with organic sales growth from our current customer base. We believe these sales efforts will lead back to profitability in the year ahead. Supply chain, customer order flow, and currency valuations continue to provide significant headwinds that we are monitoring closely. We are also encouraged by the interest level of our new TriBsyn™ product offering, and we are optimistic new products containing this innovative ingredient will be launching commercially in retail channels in the near future.”
