_______________________________
We wanted to alert you to another exciting profile for Monday’s session.
This one had some incredible merger news on Friday and went viral, closing up 17%, after being up over 100% on the session.
BRSH has developed its sonic-powered Bruush electric toothbrush to make upgrading to an electric brush appealing.
Did you know that when you brush manually, you average only 200 brush strokes a minute while our Brüush provides up to 42,000 sonic vibrations per minute? That’s over 200x more than your manual!
This is a game-changing electric toothbrush that is attracting many subscribers already.
There are now over 38,000 active subscriptions in its brush head refill program and the Company’s internal research demonstrated that over 85% of subscribers are interested in adding Consumables to their existing subscriptions.
Electric toothbrushes are superior to manual, but the majority of people have not switched
- Studies have shown that electric toothbrushes are more effective than manual toothbrushes1
- Despite clear oral care benefits, most people still use a traditional manual toothbrush2
- The low adoption rate shows that consumers do not find the current electric toothbrush value proposition compelling
- They have received over 3,000 organic reviews with a 90% 5-star rating
- Their return rate is less than 1%, compared to a U.S. national average return rate of 21% for online purchases
- Their annual churn rate on active subscriptions is only 12%, whereas Dollar Shave Club and Harry’s both have an annual churn rate of almost 70%

The Board of Directors of the Combined Company is expected to consist of five members, one of which will be designated by Brüush and the remainder will be designated by Arrive.
Over the last ten years, subscription companies have become all the rage. These are the companies that send you packages regularly consisting of items you have picked out or they have picked out for you.
BRSH CEO Aneil Manhas believes that the company has done an excellent job of creating a premium product for an affordable price. When you get your Brüush toothbrush, you can immediately tell it is a premium product.
Toothbrush heads should be replaced every 12 weeks — which makes BRSH’s subscription model that sends customers three new brush heads every six months (for about $22) a convenient way to stay on top of changing them.
They’ve grown considerably in popularity due to their convenience. Products range from foods and beverages to household goods, clothing, beauty, books, and more. There’s a subscription for almost everything.
Subscription businesses grew revenues about 5 times faster than S&P 500 company revenues (18.2% versus 3.6%), and U.S. retail sales (14.9% versus 2.3%) from 2012 to 2020.
$600 billion by 2026! How is BRSH aiming to take a piece of this market?
The rapidly growing, direct-to-consumer leader offers subscription-based, aesthetically pleasing electric toothbrushes and oral care products.
The company has a goal to become the go-to oral care brand for millennials and Generation Z, two substantial markets.
How big are these two markets?
Nearly half of Gen Z’ers (46%) and millennials (49%), for instance, were interested in subscriptions on average, compared with about a third (34%) of the general public. 4.7
As you can see with this striking revenue growth disparity, the transformative impact of the subscription model on modern business practice is huge. Looking ahead, the subscription economy is forecast to be worth.

“Together, we are going to take Brüush to the next level of growth and break some of the norms of the category while we are at it.”
