Consolidated sales for the quarter ended April 30, 2014, were $10.6 million,
compared to $10.9 million in the prior year, a decrease of $0.3 million or 2.8%.
The decrease in sales was largely related to reductions in demand in the
automotive market, offset by an increase in demand in the capital equipment
market. Consolidated sales for the nine months ended April 30, 2014 were $28.3
million, compared to $32.1 million in the prior year, a decrease of $3.8
million, or 11.8%.
Gross profit for the quarter ended April 30, 2014, was $1.6 million, or 15.1% of
sales, compared to a gross profit of $1.7 million, or 15.6% of sales, in the
prior year. The decrease in gross profit relates to increases in fixed costs
associated with our manufacturing facility as demand in the automotive market
continues to be low, offset by improved overhead absorption from increase in
sales from the capital equipment market. Gross profit for the nine months ended
April 30, 2014 was $4.3 million, or 15.2% of sales, compared to a gross profit
of $5.1 million in the prior year, or 15.9% of sales in the prior year.
Selling and administrative expenses for the quarter ended April 30, 2014 were $
1.1 million, or 10.4% of sales, compared to $1.2 million, or 11.0% sales, in the
prior year. The decrease in SG&A relates to decreases in costs such as accounts
receivable insurance and sales commission as our sales volumes decreased.
Selling and administrative expenses for the nine months ended April 30, 2014
were $3.4 million, or 11.8% of sales, compared to $3.5 million in the prior
year, or 10.9% of sales.
Net income for the quarter ended April 30, 2014 was $0.2 million or $0.02 per
share, compared to net income of $0.2 million, or $0.03 per share in the prior
year. During the quarter, amortization increased by $200 ($0.03 per share) as a
result of a change in accounting estimate. Net income for the nine months ended
April 30, 2014 was $0.2 million or $0.04 per share, compared to net income of
$1.2 million or $0.18 per share in the prior year.
"We are pleased that Reko's third quarter results showed improvement over prior
quarters," stated Diane Reko, chief executive officer. "Income from operations
improved significantly, increasing 56% over quarter two results, primarily due
to higher demand in the capital equipment market. We are beginning to see signs
of improvement in our automotive market and expect this to positively impact
future quarters."
