What management said
So I can address that. In our 10-Q, we actually have segment reporting in the raw milk and processed milk component is all legacy Arps. There's a small portion in Q1 that's also included in the -- what's called the frozen beverage and food component. It's mostly legacy Barfresh in Q1 at least. A little bit of that is ice cream mix from Arps. So kind of a good way of looking at it. It's not completely split out legacy...
I mean we should be back in the low 40s, I would say. I mean, even with the legacy raw milk and processed milk, which is pretty low margin, you can see also in the segment reporting, we break out the margins that we achieved in Q1. You can see we're running about 5% for that processed milk piece. That's going to be a smaller portion of our revenue, though, going forward as we, kind of, get into the new school year.
What analysts pressed on
Analysts expressed concerns regarding the ongoing processing inefficiencies at the new facility and the impact of lower-margin contributions from the Arps Dairy business on overall profitability. There were questions about the timeline for achieving normalized gross margins and the potential for revenue growth in the education channel.
