We expect this agreement to significantly expand our geographic reach by adding additional distribution partners and retail channels in Canada. Expansion of our sales in both domestic and international markets is a key component of our growth strategy as part of our stated goal of reaching $100 million in revenue. Although our revenues decreased in Q2 2023, due to cash constraints and fulfillment delays, we are confident that as we execute on the growing sales pipeline and purchase orders, our sales should rapidly increase. Notably, during the quarter, we enhanced our balance sheet, by converting over $5.8 million of debt to equity. We also converted $1.2 million of deferred executive and board compensation to equity as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cWe continue to execute on our \u201cBuy and Build\u201d strategy by acquiring cash flow positive companies at attractive multiples. Towards that end, we expect to close the eCommerce nutraceuticals company acquisition in the next several weeks. The target is currently generating estimated revenue in excess of $10 million, with over $2 million of EBITDA for the trailing twelve months. Overall, we believe we are well positioned to achieve strong revenue growth and drive significant value for our shareholders.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Financial Results<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Revenue was $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $4.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to a delay in financing, which led to a temporary delay in production. Gross profit was approximately $742 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.8 million for the same period last year. Net loss attributable to common shareholders was $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Revenue was $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $8.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Gross profit was $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $3.3 million for same period last year. Net loss attributable to common shareholders was $8.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $20.2 million for same period last year.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong><br \/>\n          <em>EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA<\/em><br \/>\n        <\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The Company reported Adjusted EBITDA loss of $2.6 million in Q2 2023, as compared to Adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.9 million in Q2 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company reported Adjusted EBITDA loss of $4.5 million versus an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $4.5 million for the same period last year. The Company defines EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before related party consulting fees, stock-based compensation, stock issued for services, bad debt expense, IPO related expenses, impairment of intangible assets, and gain on debt extinguishment. Both EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (\u201cGAAP\u201d), and should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, earnings as an indicator of operating performance or cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. The Company believes the presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is relevant and useful by enhancing the readers\u2019 ability to understand the Company\u2019s operating performance. The Company\u2019s management utilizes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as means to measure performance. The Company\u2019s measurements of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar titled measures reported by other companies. The table below reconciles EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, both non-GAAP measures, to GAAP numbers for net loss for net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.<\/p>\n<table
