Hey Paw Family!
First, we hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!!!!
Ryan being the nerd that he is, spent some of the day reading over industry reports and earnings from other Pet Supply companies. He does this all the time to stay up on fluctuations on the market, new products, economic trends, etc.. (NERD!!!!!!!!!!!!!). Anyway, he thought it would be cool to put out our own YOY Revenue growth report like the big companies do. We don't have shareholders, but in a way we do, which is you, our community and loving customers, we aren't going anywhere, so we thought it would be cool to report on the health of the business. So, here we go!
YOY (year over year) growth from Quarter 3 of 2024 to 2025 is up 11%!
We attribute this growth to understanding that our Daycare/Boarding model wasn't working unfortunately, so we pivoted to increased retail space and added in Farm Feed, making deals with Kalmbach and other brands. We also understand our market which caters to smaller farms, backyard chicken farmers, hobby farms, and show animals. We aren't able to store enough feed for the larger farms that buy by the ton (yet).
In addition, we attribute the growth to the growth of the city, as more folks move here, many have pets, and we will see a natural growth, hopefully at the same growth percentage as city growth. When we look at 2024 to 2025 growth statistics of Anna, it is projected (not actual yet) to be 11.28% growth rate. So our growth in the store is keeping pace with the growth of the city!
Profit remained flat even though revenue grew. This is attributed to a 3 paycheck month in July 2025 (since we are on a 2 week pay cycle, every 6 months or so 3 paychecks will hit in the same month). In addition, we have heavily invested in shelving, forklift, and the addition of Farm Feed which required a substantial up front ISO (initial stocking order), going from 0 inventory to 7 tons of feed in the store.
The health an financial state of the business is performing excellent. Our upcoming tasks in Q4 and 2026 will be working with the landlord on a new lease, as our current lease will expire at the end of 2026. We have been good tenants and stewarts of the space we are in, so we do not foresee any issues here.
