Bergio International Announces Year End Results

FAIRFIELD, NJ--(Marketwired - Apr 16, 2014) - Bergio International, Inc. (OTCQB: BRGO) ("Bergio" or the "Company") announced today its results for the year ending December 31, 2013.

For the year ended December 31st, the Company reported revenues of $1,999,496 as compared to $2,017,614 for the same period in the prior year. Total liabilities at December 31st, 2013 were $666,420 as compared to $1,537,582 at December 31, 2012 as the Company has been making a concerted effort to improve its balance sheet. Stockholders' equity at December 31st, 2013 was $1,855,311 as compared to $1,506,796 at December 31, 2012. The net loss for 2013 was $835,740 as compared to $388,434 for 2012.

Berge Abajian, CEO of Bergio International, stated, "The increase in the loss is partially attributed to an increase in the provision for bad debts associated with receivables from our Russian customer and a few other customers. Management feels that we have had slower than expected collections due to economic conditions, but considering our past we feel confident that collections will be made, but felt that it was prudent to recognize a provision in our financial statements. Our gross margins were lower than expected due to selling certain slow-moving inventory at substantially discounted prices. I am personally satisfied that we were to maintain sales at same level as the prior year given the current economic conditions. I am also satisfied with decreasing our liabilities by approximately $900,000 as well as increasing our stockholder's equity by approximately 20% while keeping our asset to liability ratio at 4:1, the highest in company history."

He continued, "The Company has been preparing for our major show in Las Vegas, which will be from May 30th to June 2nd. We are working diligently to establish relationships with major stores that could expand the distribution and name recognition of Bergio products."

He added, "As stated in previous press releases, we are reevaluating every aspect of our business, such as reducing long term investments in projects in exchange for those with more immediate contribution to revenue and the bottom line. We also plan to open our first Bergio retail store in the near future. We are also in the final stages of continuing the process of securing non-toxic financing."
