I calculate the P/E at 185 or roughly half that if using 2020 net income instead. Is that correct?

Andy, Thank you so much for your question and interest. Your calculations are correct; however, P/E ratios are almost exclusively a metric for publicly-listed companies. Since pre-IPO companies typically prioritize growth over profitability in the short-term, there is often little energy dedicated to analyzing the P/E ratios of private companies. That is why startup investors (especially seed and Series A) tend to focus more on top-line revenue growth. We at Teeccino are focused on growing ou...

I’m a huge fan that decided to invest in it, because I always hear that you should invest in things you believe in. But then I read the fine print (“details”) and now I’ve got questions. Like “The Securities will not be freely tradable under the Securities Act until one year f...

Hi Larry, Thank you so much for your investment! Since this is a private equity offering, not a public IPO, the shares don't have a ready market like publicly traded shares do. Typically, there isn't a market for private equity shares until the company has an exit event either by being bought, merged or invested in by a larger company or private equity fund. We hope to have such an event in the next 3-5 years but it is impossible to know if that will happen or not. The legal disclaimers are m...

First, congrats on all your success to date. You've grown your brand, business, and revenues to amazing levels. So I have no double about your future success. My question is, on the slide deck it mentions acquisition as one of the potential exit strategies. You seem very passi...

Hi LD, Of course, we'd love to build Teeccino into a global brand without having to sell the company but we do need to provide liquidity to our investors. Our preference would be to eventually find an impact investor who could buy out other investors and would want to hold shares for a long time to allow the company to continue to develop and who would support the values and mission Teeccino has held from its inception!

Hi. What are your YTD or Q1 sales?

Hi Yosef, We closed the quarter at $3.8M, up 13% YOY without additional ad spend as we don't plan to increase our marketing budget until we close our WeFunder round. Growth in our Amazon and distributor channels are strong with new placement at some national chains about to be announced.

Hi , what type of share there? common or pereferred?What is the reason for the very big difference in net profitability compared to gross income?

Hi Alghamdi, We are offering preferred shares. Our management strategy is to invest our profits back into the Company to promote growth. We've doubled our business in the last couple of years with this strategy. We are planning this year to produce a higher percentage of income and our business plan calls for increasing the profit ratio to income as our growth continues. Please look at the projected revenue growth and EBITDA growth in our deck.

Why Teeccino?

Teeccino is on a mission to help millions of people optimize their health. Our coffee alternative blends are proprietary, delicious, and they taste, brew, and feel just like the real thing. Teeccino is the gateway beverage to a healthier, caffeine-free life—with all the satisfaction and authenticity that coffee and tea drinkers crave.

Our everyday lives are demanding. Our bodies think so, too:

75% of all doctor visits are stress-related
66% of Americans think it’s essential to reduce coffee and caffeine
50% of adults suffer from sleep disorders such as insomnia
40% of adults have digestive disorders

For many, caffeine is a stopgap solution to the demands of daily life. Millions of people love coffee, but hate the jitters, sleep problems, acidity, and afternoon crash. Yet they still crave the taste, richness, versatility, routine, and energy of the real thing.

Replacing coffee is a big challenge. Tea is too watery and weak to produce the robust taste a coffee drinker loves. Decaf still has caffeine and is highly acidic. Plus, people are attached to their particular ritual of brewing their morning cup.

Here are the four main needs that a caffeine-free coffee alternative must meet:

Teeccino is a delicious blend of organic herbs like chicory, carob, dandelion and ramón seeds plus fruits and nuts that are roasted and ground to brew like coffee or steep like tea.

All our products contain the highest quality ingredients without any artificial flavors, preservatives, chemicals or stimulants like caffeine and sugar.

A cup of Teeccino brims with many health benefits including natural energy from nutrients, heart-healthy potassium and prebiotic inulin.

Teeccino's all-purpose grind can be brewed in any kind of coffee maker and our tea bags are convenient, easy to use, and preferred by tea customers .

There are 5 major health benefits in every cup of Teeccino:

Teeccino’s team is driven by award-winning coffee and tea veterans with deep experience in the natural foods industry who are committed to an inspired vision of bringing the health benefits of herbs to everyone’s cup.

Teeccino is led by Caroline MacDougall, a true pioneer in the herbal and tea industries. Caroline began her career studying, growing, and importing herbs. As Vice President of Celestial Seasonings, Caroline developed supplier partnerships and imported herbs across 6 continents when she was in her early '20's. She has designed award-winning herbal beverage lines for top tea companies including Yogi Tea, The Republic of Tea and Organic India.

Caroline’s inspiration for creating Teeccino came to her in a dream when she was deeply involved in rainforest preservation work in Central America. She awoke after hearing herself say, “The next product I’m going to create is a caffeine-free cappuccino and the name of the product is Teeccino.” She began roasting and grinding herbs in her kitchen to create the first herbal beverage to match the rich, roasted flavor of coffee.

Teeccino is building a fairer and healthier world, one delicious beverage at a time.

We are committed to maximizing impact in our partner communities, especially for women and smallholder family farmers. Teeccino’s trading practices are rooted in best practice ESG standards.

Teeccino’s impact includes:

Creating new trade with smallholder farmers in rural communities
Pioneering the harvest of wild, non-timber forest products
Providing income opportunities for women in developing economies
Financing rewilding projects for reforestation
Promoting, fundraising, and donating to environmental NGOs

We have thousands of five star reviews and enthusiastic testimonials on our website and Amazon.

Approximately half of our customers still drink coffee but they drink Teeccino either blended with coffee or in place of it in the afternoon and evening to reduce their caffeine consumption.

Tea drinkers are thrilled to have a caffeine-free herbal beverage that is full-bodied and can be enjoyed with creamer like regular tea.

Health-motivated customers are driven by many different conditions that are aggravated by coffee and caffeine.
