NATURALLY SPLENDID ANNOUNCES 2016 SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

Naturally Splendid Enterprises Ltd. has released its unaudited financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2016. All amounts are prepared in accordance with international financial reporting standards.

Naturally Splendid recorded $3,657,852 in revenue during the second quarter of 2016 (year-to-date 2016: $5,097,880). This represents a significant increase in revenue compared with the second quarter of 2015, which amounted to $70,459 (YTD 2015: $100,952). A further $712,000 of sales was recorded as deferred revenue as the product had not shipped as of June 30, 2016. The significant increase in top-line revenue was due to bulk sales of hemp products to Korea and POS BPC commencing operations in the second quarter of 2016.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2016 amounted to $1,596,383 (YTD 2016: $1,676,736) and net income of $885,301 (YTD 2016: $427,009). These amounts also represent significant increases over Q2 2015 gross loss of $35,563 (YTD 2015: $28,686) and net loss of $905,485 (YTD 2015: $2,205,288).

Naturally Splendid chief executive officer Craig Goodwin stated: "We've experienced significant growth in gross revenue from 2014 and 2015 to where we are at the end of the second quarter in 2016. More importantly, Naturally Splendid has achieved net income in Q2. This represents a new and impressive milestone for us, which we plan to build on through 2016 and into the future. With exports, processing and our retail lines performing well, we now plan to focus more attention and resources to pursue the HempOmega and cannabinoid markets."
