Corporate & financial news release
SCOTT’S LIQUID GOLD-INC. REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Third Quarter 2022 Highlights:
GREENWOOD VILLAGE, COLORADO – November 14, 2022 – Scott’s Liquid Gold-Inc. (OTC: SLGD) today announced results for the three months ended September 30, 2022.
Third Quarter Financial Results
In the third quarter of 2022, net sales decreased primarily due to the sale of the Dryel brand and the conclusion of our agreement to distribute Batiste products. Sales of our Alpha Skin Care products destined for the China market decreased, as we terminated our relationship with our exclusive distributor in China in the second quarter of 2022. Net sales from other product lines decreased primarily due to changes in our customers’ purchasing strategies related to inventory control measures as well as supply chain challenges with certain BIZ products.
Our net loss decreased versus the prior year due to reductions in various operating expenses and improved margins on the products we sold to our customers. Income tax expense decreased in the third quarter of 2022 versus the same period in 2021 due to the realization of a valuation allowance on our deferred tax asset in 2021.
Management Commentary
“Our team is adapting to the changing environment with our customers’ order patterns and inventory management, and we remain focused on delivering for our retail customers and consumers,” said Tisha Pedrazzini, President of Scott’s. “We expect the operating environment to remain challenging. While our efforts to reduce overhead and operating expenses have been successful, we are committed to further cost reductions and efficiencies to optimize our business.”

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This news release may contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws that are intended to qualify for the Safe Harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. "Forward-looking statements" generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "assumptions," "target," "guidance," “strategy,” "outlook," "plans," "projection," "may," "will," "would," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "believe”, "potential," or "continue" (or the negative or other derivatives of each of these terms) or similar terminology.
Forward-looking statements convey our expectations, intentions, or forecasts about future events, circumstances, or results. All forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which may change over time and many of which are beyond our control. You should not rely on any forward-looking statement as a prediction or guarantee about the future. Actual future objectives, strategies, plans, prospects, performance, conditions, or results may differ materially from those set forth in any forward-looking statement. Some of the factors that may cause actual results or other future events or circumstances to differ from those in forward-looking statements are described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the Company's subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf speaks only as of the date that it was made. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the impact of events, circumstances, or results that arise after the date that the statement was made, except as required by applicable securities laws. You, however, should consult further disclosures (including disclosures of a forward-looking nature) that we may make in any subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
