Reko Announces First Quarter Results for Fiscal 2012
(firmenpresse) - WINDSOR, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 12/08/11 -- Reko International Group Inc. (TSX VENTURE: REK) today announced results for its first quarter ended October 31, 2011.
Financial Highlights (complete statements follow):
Consolidated sales for the quarter ended October 31, 2011, were $10.5 million, compared to $9.7 million in the prior year. This represents an increase of approximately 8.5%. Reko's sales increase is tied to the recovery of the capital equipment market.
The gross profit earned in the three months ended October 31, 2011, was $1.1 million, or 10.5% of sales, compared to a gross profit of $0.6 million, or 6.2% of sales, in the prior year. The increase in gross profit for the quarter relates primarily to a reduction in overhead costs as a result of the consolidation of operations.
Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended October 31, 2011 were $1.2 million, or 11.3% of sales, compared to $1.5 million or 15.4% of sales in the prior year. The decrease in selling and administrative expenses in the quarter relates primarily to changes announced as part of our business transformation project.
Adjusted net loss for the quarter was $0.2 million, or $0.04 per share, compared to an adjusted net loss of $1.2 million, or $0.18 per share in the prior year. Adjusted net loss is defined as net income (loss) plus business transformation expenses plus asset impairment charges (as a result of implementing the business transformation project) less gain on sale of capital assets subject to the business transformation project.
Net income for the quarter was $0.1 million or $0.02 per share, compared to a net loss of $1.2 million, or $0.18 per share in the prior year.
"We are pleased with the return to profitability in the quarter," said Diane Reko, Chief Executive Officer. "The implementation of our business transformation project and the tough decisions that we made have improved our operating results. As the capital equipment market continues to slowly recover, Reko is working to identify and secure new business opportunities that will position us to further improve sales and profitability levels."
