NewGen Products Segment (34% of total net sales in the quarter)

[1 OF 2]

For the 4th quarter, NewGen Products segment net sales increased 30.3% to $36.0 million driven by double-digit growth in both the vape distribution and Nu-X businesses. The prev year period was negatively impacted by a market-driven disruption in our vape business.

For the quarter, NewGen Products gross profit increased $27.6 million to $11.8. Segment gross margin was 32.7%. The previous year period was impacted by $23.2 million of related write-offs and reserves primarily associated with the vape business disruption.

For the full year, NewGen Products segment net sales increased 2.0% to $156.4 million as positive contribution from the vape distribution business and double-digit growth in Nu-X was partly offset by a decline in RipTide.
