BOCA RATON, FL – DNA Brands, Inc., makers of DNA Energy Drink, the winner of the 2010 and 2012 “World’s Best Tasting Energy Drink” title, announced yesterday that the Company’s revenues increased significantly compared to revenues for the same three month period ended September 30, 2012.
Revenue increased 655% in the third quarter in 2013 from the third quarter in 2012, from $28,142 in 2012, to $184,481 in 2013. Management attributes this increase to the favorable initial acceptance by customers of the Company’s new rebranded products.
In early July 2013, the Company began rebranding efforts by producing, marketing and selling a proprietary line of five carbonated blends (three of which are new flavors) of DNA Energy Drink, our award winning Cellular Citrus (formerly called Citrus flavor), Cellular Citrus – Zero Sugar (formerly called Sugar Free Citrus), Cryo Berry, Molecular Melon and Original DNA.
While no assurances can be provided, management is optimistic that revenues will continue to increase in the near future.
This belief is due to the expansion of the Company’s product line to include three new and delicious coffee energy drink flavors, including Carmel Macchiato, Vanilla Latte and Mocha, each infused with Omega 3. The first production run of 15,000 cases is expected to be shipped to the Company in late December 2013 or early January 2014.
Eric Fowler, DNA’s Vice President of Sales and Marketing, stated, “Re-launching a new product line in a highly competitive arena is normally a difficult process. Based upon retailer and customer reaction to our rebranding efforts which includes our award winning flavors, we believe we are off to a good start.
We are looking forward with great anticipation to the imminent release of our new energy coffee line that we feel will greatly enhance our portfolio of great tasting functional beverages. The ready-to-drink coffee category is less crowded and more receptive to the launch of new products.
In fact, we have already received 3 orders and commitments before the first can has come off the production line. While no assurances can be provided, we feel that once we are able to offer our complete product line our product awareness is expected to increase significantly in 2014, thus enabling us to generate substantial revenue increases above recent historical levels.”
