On November 22nd CURR announced results for the quarter that ended September 30, 2022.

Revenue in the third quarter surged 32.1% year-over-year and 58.9% sequentially from Q2 2022 to $1.8 million with further increases expected in Q4.

SG&A expenses (excluding non-cash charges) for the third quarter decreased by $0.1 million in 2022 compared to 2021.

Cost reductions and operating leverage helped narrow operating loss (excluding non-cash charges) by $0.6 million in 2022 versus 2021 despite enhanced marketing investment.

Other operational highlights during the third quarter of 2022 included:

CURR completed the sale of a portion of its platform technology intellectual property portfolio and related assets in July 2022 for $20 million of non-dilutive capital in total consideration. A portion of the cash proceeds was used to pay down certain debt obligations and the balance will be used for working capital and to grow the CURR intellectual property portfolio and its wellness and beauty brands. CURR retained 15 of its patents and will continue to be an incubator for future technologies and patents, which it intends to monetize through the commercialization of the technologies through product development or through the licensing or sale of the technologies.

CURR is focused on becoming the future of wellness with its long-term growth strategy to increase revenue with high margins by using its incubator strategy, product development and marketing and through strategic partnerships and geographic licensing deals. These initiatives, along with the CURR relationships with Nicole Kidman and other major social media influencers, will also help propel its health and beauty brands to become household names and the Company to become a genuine house of recognizable and respected quality brands.

The CURR wholly owned subsidiary, The Sera Labs, also announced that six SKUs of its Seratopical Revolution skincare line with P3P, the proprietary delivery system, are now being sold at 1,372 Walmart Stores as well as on Amazon.com.

Sera Labs also has garnered placement for its revolutionary oral thin film strip, Nutri-Strips™ on shelves at CVS, Amazon.com and Target.com. Nutri-Strips are proprietary to Sera Labs and are the result of years of research.

CURR recently enhanced the reach and visibility of its Brand Ambassador, actress Nicole Kidman, as part of the launch of its new transformational Seratopical Revolution and Nutri-Strips marketing campaigns and the unveiling of a revolutionary new delivery system for the CURR plant-based skincare line.

In summary, the recent $20 million asset sale has helped CURR increase its cash position and strengthen its balance sheet. Since the announcement of that non-dilutive deal and positive management and Board of Director additions, CURR has been working diligently on several initiatives aligned with its guiding vision of enhancing shareholder value by utilizing proprietary technology to differentiate CURR from its competition and producing quality high-margin products with improved safety, efficacy, and consumer experience. 

The new marketing programs are showing early encouraging results, as CURR continues to focus heavily on accelerating its high-margin sales in the U.S. as well as increasing international presence and sales in the coming year, which is supported by continuing work on new products and patents.
