Emerson Radio Corp. Reports Fiscal 2011 Second Quarter Results
MOONACHIE, NJ—(Marketwire — November 15, 2010) — Emerson Radio Corp. (NYSE Amex: MSN) today reported financial results for its second quarter and six months ended September 30, 2010.
Net revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 increased slightly to $52.0 million as compared to net revenues in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 of $51.8 million. Our second quarter fiscal 2011 net sales of houseware products, driven by increases in microwave ovens and compact refrigerators, which were partially offset by decreases in toaster ovens and coffee makers, increased by $9.0 million, or 23.3% versus the second quarter of fiscal 2010, and were largely offset by lower year-over-year net sales of audio products and the absence in the current fiscal quarter of themed products sales, which were discontinued in December 2009. Net revenues for the six month period of fiscal 2011 were $119.1 million, an increase of $11.7 million, or 10.9%, over the six month period of fiscal 2010 net revenues of $107.4. Our net sales during the six month period of fiscal 2011 of houseware products, driven by increases in microwave ovens, compact refrigerators and wine coolers, partially offset by decreases in toaster ovens and coffee makers, increased by $25.8 million, or 30.4% over the six month period of fiscal 2010, and were partially offset by lower year-over-year net sales of audio products and the absence during the six month period of fiscal 2011 of themed products sales.
Operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was $3.3 million as compared to operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 of $3.4 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 1.1%. The decrease in second quarter fiscal 2011 operating income over the prior year was driven by higher product-related costs, which were largely offset by lower SG&A expenses. Operating income for the six month period of fiscal 2011 was $10.7 million, an increase of $5.9 million, or 124%, over operating income of $4.8 million for the six month period of fiscal 2010. The increase in operating income for the six month period of fiscal 2011 versus the prior year period was due to the increase in year-over-year net revenues, coupled with a $3.5 million decrease in year-over-year SG&A expenses.
Net income from continuing operations for both the second quarters of fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010 was $3.2 million, or $0.12 per diluted share. Net income from continuing operations for the six month period of fiscal 2011 was $9.1 million versus $4.4 million for the six month period of fiscal 2010, an increase of $4.7 million, or 108%. Diluted earnings per share for the six month period of fiscal 2011 was $0.34 as compared to $.16 for the six month period of fiscal 2010, an increase of $0.18 per diluted share, or 113%.
Adrian Ma, Chief Executive Officer of Emerson Radio, commented, “During the second fiscal quarter of 2011, our operating income was affected by the anticipated impacts of higher year-over-year factory and freight costs on our profitability, although these increases were almost entirely mitigated by lower year-over-year SG&A expenses. For the balance of fiscal 2011, we anticipate that product-related costs will remain at higher levels than the year ago level, although these impacts should continue for this fiscal year to be tempered by lower year-over-year SG&A expenses. We continue to closely monitor and manage our product lineups, customer relationships and cost structures.”
