Topline didn't grow nearly enough.

This is what we paid for our YoY growth (just over $1M in absolute terms):

6.4M shares (Marley = 3M, Coco = 2.2M, & PMC = 1.2M)
$2M in cash (Coco)
Assumed $1.57M in debt (Coco)

FOR

Marley (only 16 days of revenue represented in Q2 / reported $9M TTM before Marley Mate rollout)
Coco Libre (100% on the books for Q2 / maybe $6M in 2017?)
PMC (which appears to be a de minimus income stream for the moment).

Revenue recognition can be a funny thing. With quarterly snapshots, revenue streams can be "bumpy", meaning things could even out next quarter, but we won't know that until next quarter.

We had a record quarter but it wasn't record enough. Synergies are taking longer than expected and they don't have a lot of cash to throw at the problem. Based on things from the CC, things will improve in Q3. 5 major near-term rollouts planned. Marley Mate was specifically mentioned ($1,000 per store x 10K stores = $10M annual run-rate). Gross margins improved and will improve further. And the projection is to be EBITDA profitable in Q3 and Q4, i.e., we won't be losing money.
