Management Commentary

“We are happy to report that we are coming off a fantastic second quarter that saw revenue grow an astonishing 626% compared to the same period last year. This builds on the momentum of a great 2019 and robust first quarter of 2020. Our Company has been able to navigate these tough times posed by COVID-19 and subsequent shutdowns with strong demand from Consumers of our products, specifically our Bellissima “Zero Sugar” Sparkling Wine, Prosecco DOC Brut, and our Pinot Grigio Rosé Sparkling Wine. We have shifted our business to focus on Direct to Consumer (DTC) sales as this trend develops, and have been rewarded for our efforts,” said Richard DeCicco, Chief Executive Officer of Iconic.

“We will continue to look for opportunities and ways to grow the business and continue to offer amazing products. Our team worked hard to make this one of the best quarters in our Company’s history and we are thankful for our brand and distribution partners. We want to thank our shareholders and look forward to continuing to have you share in the success of Iconic.”
