Toronto, ON – TheNewswire – March 1, 2023 – Hill Street Beverage Company Inc. (TSXV:HILL) (OTC:HSEEF) (“Hill Street” or the “Company”), a progressive bioscience implementation company that utilizes new technologies to provide innovative cannabis solutions and non-alcoholic beverage products globally, is pleased to announce the following updates from the three-month period ended December 31, 2022 (“Q2 FY 2023”) financial statements.
Continued DehydraTECH™ Expansions Lead to Record Quarterly Licensing Revenue & Growth
The Company continued to add states to its geographic footprint for DehydraTECH™ licensing as well as form factors to its portfolio of DehydraTECH™-powered consumer products during the three-month period ended December 31, 2022.
As a result, the Company is pleased to announce that it grew DehydraTECH™ licensing revenues by 93% in Q2 versus the prior quarter and 263% for the fiscal year to date.
The following chart shows the DehydraTECH™ licensing revenues over the past 6 quarters:
| In 000’s | Dec 31, 2022 | Sept. 30, 2022 | June 30, 2022 | Mar 31, 2022 | Dec 31, 2021 | Sep 30, 2021 |
| Licensing Revenue | 328 | 170 | 138 | 77 | 59 | 130 |
The Transformed Vin(Zero) Business Model Leads to Record High Quarterly Revenue and Gross Profit
In Q2 FY 2023, Hill Street achieved record quarterly revenues overall and also for its Vin(Zero) alcohol-free beverage business. The Vin(Zero) results were primarily driven by the Company’s new streamlined Vin(Zero) business model that created a new and different cadence to that business, as we have previously announced. The Company now executes larger orders that are spread months apart to optimize the timing and efficiency of our supply chain. The new business model significantly improves key financial metrics such as order to cash and reduced working capital in inventory, but the Vin(Zero) business must now be looked at across longer time frames to truly understand its patterns.
The following chart shows the Vin(Zero) alcohol-free business results over the past 6 quarters:
| In 000’s | Dec 31, 2022 | Sept. 30, 2022 | June 30, 2022 | Mar 31, 2022 | Dec 31, 2021 | Sep 30, 2021 |

Craig Binkley, CEO comments: “This was by far the best quarterly result in the Company’s history, for both business units. We are very pleased that our December 31, 2022 results for the Vin(Zero) business validate that the fundamental adjustments we made to our business model over the past several months were well considered and on target. By refocusing our efforts towards our two on-trend, strong-margin and streamlined business segments – Vin(Zero) beverage sales and DehydraTECH™ licensing – we are well positioned as we head into the spring.”
