Current quarter shows first PROFITABLE quarter.

While Patrick did not give exact numbers, he actually did tell us exactly where the company stands in the current quarter on sales.

10000 cases of Trump prepaid shipped to Israel = $1,000,000
10000 cases of add’l Trump prepaid being produced for ship this quarter to Israel = $1,000,000
1000 cases Leyrat advance orders prepaid and shipped = $300,000
2400 cases Trump prepaid and shipped to Germany= $240,000
12000 cases of Olifant shipped to Israel prepaid by end of year upon Olifant Closing = $600,000
4800 cases of Nov. & Dec. Olifant accretive to Drinks upon closing = $240,000
Current domestic sales mix for the quarter = $500,000
Additional two “Grape Only” Trump containers shipped from Monday PR = $200,000

Total sales for Q3 at 7 week mark: $4,080,000

This represents the best quarter in the company’s history and also represents the company’s FIRST profitable quarter.

Let’s see how it breaks out:

Gross Sales: $4,080,000
CGS: $2,348,000

Net Sales: $1,732,000

SG&A: $1,280,000

Interest/Payments(Olifant): $420,000

Net Profit: $32,000

You can sit there and whine all you want that it isn’t some astronomical number. However, this company is going profitable in 4 years where it took Hansens 7 years to post a profit.

This company went profitable WITHOUT introducing a single new product aside from Trump. They did it through global expansion.

But the most important thing of all is the company has now proven that their Israel and Germany contracts combined represent a break even number every quarter for the next 15 years. Everything else the company does is creating profit for the company.

And…

Trump Vodka is now a sustained 100000 case a year brand for the next 15 years because of those contracts. 72000 cases of Trump Israel AND 35000 cases of Trump Germany.

Remember what the man from Coke said? Coke couldn’t introduce a brand for less than $150 million?

Enjoy the ride downhill guys. It is only going to get better from here.
