Full Year 2024 Financial Overview
All comparisons are made versus the same period in 2023 unless otherwise stated.
For full year 2024, total revenue was approximately $16.6 million, or unchanged. Service revenue for full year 2024 increased $0.3 million or 3%, to $12.2 million. The increase was driven primarily by the acquisition of an animal hospital in the fourth quarter of 2023 and an increase in the price of our services slightly offset by the sale of the KVC practice in the third quarter of 2024. Product revenue for full year 2024 decreased $0.4 million, or 8%, to $4.4 million. The decrease was primarily a result of customers purchasing less products per visit and by the sale of the KVC practice in the third quarter of 2024.
Total operating expenses increased $1.9 million or 7%. The increase was primarily due to the expenses generated by the Valley Veterinary practice acquisition, and various consulting contracts the Company entered into in 2024related to the financings closed during the year.
Net loss for full year 2024 decreased $0.5 million, or 4%, to $14 million. The decrease in net loss is primarily due to the gain on sale of the KVC practice and omission of any beneficial conversion feature in 2024.
Balance Sheet
As of December 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $0.5 million. Subsequent to the close of the fourth quarter, the Company announced on March 26, 2025, the closing of a securities purchase agreement with an investor pursuant to a registered direct offering for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $2.0 million Approximately $2.0 million was funded in full upon the closing of the Offering, and up to an additional $4.0 million may be funded upon full cash exercise of the warrants.
