The highlights
Terra Tech reported that gross margin for FY2015 amounted to almost 10.2% compared to around 2.2% in the comparable period. This increase can be attributed to better margins from Edible Garden and also from the revenue recorded from IVXX from the segment of cannabis products. S, G & A expenses for the year closed December 2015 came at nearly $9.83 million, a decline of almost 46.4% compared to about $18.34 million for the fiscal closed December 2014.
For FY2015, the net loss amounted to approximately $9.23 million compared to a loss of nearly $21.89 million for the fiscal closed December 2014, a decline of approximately $12.66 million. This positive change in net loss can be attributed to a jump in revenue, a decline in expenses, and drop in cost of goods sold. Stockholders’ equity for the fiscal ended December 2015 amounted to nearly $6.34 million, a jump of almost $5.06 million against around $1.28 million as of December 2014.
