Bespoke Extracts, Inc. (BSPK)·Q2 2025 Earnings Summary
Executive Summary
- Q2 revenue rose 40.4% year over year to $0.391M and 48.4% sequentially, driven by record pre-roll production and new products; gross margin expanded 1,250 bps YoY to 50.6% and net loss narrowed to $0.205M .
- Management guided Q3 revenue to $0.425M–$0.450M, citing momentum in Fresh Joints, Doobskis, Dutch Blunts, and third-party processing; they also expect further gross margin improvement in Q3 vs. Q2 .
- Q2 operating efficiency improved (smaller operating loss) as SG&A remained contained; interest expense rose with higher secured debt balances, but overall net loss improved YoY and QoQ .
- Liquidity and solvency remain key risks: cash ended Q2 at $1.4k, working capital deficit of ~$1.33M, and “substantial doubt” going-concern language; pending legal matters add overhang .
What Went Well and What Went Wrong
What Went Well
- Revenue acceleration and mix: Q2 sales increased 40.4% YoY and 48.4% QoQ, supported by record pre-roll output and strong uptake of Doobskis and Dutch Blunts alongside continued Fresh Joints growth .
- Margin expansion: Gross margin reached 50.6% (+1,250 bps YoY) on cost efficiencies in raw materials, packaging, and labor despite higher sampling for product launches .
- Positive management momentum: “We produced and shipped a record number of pre-rolls during the quarter,” and achieved “strong market share gains in the Colorado pre-roll segment,” positioning for sustained growth .
What Went Wrong
- Liquidity constraints and going-concern: Cash of $1.4k, significant current liabilities, and ongoing operating cash burn prompted “substantial doubt” about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern .
- Higher interest burden: Interest expense rose sharply to $43.1k in Q2 (vs. $10.7k in Q2’24) amid added senior secured notes, partially offsetting operating improvements .
- Legal overhang: A vendor lawsuit (~$35.6k) and a threatened employment-related claim could be distracting and, if adverse, materially affect results; amounts reserved for the vendor claim .

Earnings Call Themes & Trends
Management Commentary
- “Second quarter revenue was $390,553… Gross margin of 50.6%… As we continue the Colorado expansion of The Joint Company, we produced and shipped a record number of pre-rolls during the quarter.” — Michael Feinsod, CEO .
- “Strong market share gains in the Colorado pre-roll segment… we remain confident in our team’s capabilities and strategic approach to thrive amid ongoing market challenges.” — President Hunter Garth .

Q&A Highlights
- Not available in company materials reviewed for Q2 2025; the quarter’s disclosures consisted of the 10‑Q and press release .
Estimates Context
- Wall Street consensus (S&P Global) for Q2 and Q3 2025 revenue and EPS was unavailable for BSPK at the time of this analysis; as a result, no beat/miss vs. consensus can be computed. If/when coverage emerges, consensus should incorporate Q3 revenue guidance of $0.425M–$0.450M and implied margin improvement .
Key Takeaways for Investors
- Execution is improving: sequential revenue growth (+48.4% QoQ) and gross margin expansion to 50.6% indicate better throughput and mix; unit production hit a record, validating the TJC brand rollout and new SKUs .
- Guidance implies continued momentum: Q3 revenue outlook of $0.425–$0.450M and qualitative gross margin improvement suggest another quarter of sequential gains if execution holds .
- Balance sheet is the gating factor: de minimis cash ($1.4k), significant current liabilities, and going-concern language point to financing needs that could dilute equity or constrain growth until addressed .
- Interest burden rising: higher secured debt drove Q2 interest expense to $43.1k; managing financing costs will be important to translate operating gains into bottom-line improvement .
- Legal noise present: a vendor suit (~$35.6k) and a threatened employment claim add risk, though amounts are modest; monitor for resolution and cash impacts .
- Watch KPIs: pre-roll units produced, third‑party processing wins, and gross margin trajectory are the clearest real-time indicators as the company scales output and mix .
