Financial Overview

The Company’s consolidated net sales for the quarter were $136.6 million compared to $129.0 million for the same quarter last year. Print sales were up 10.1% on a comparable quarter basis, from $81.5 million to $89.7 million. Apparel sales decreased 1.1% for the comparable quarter, from $47.4 million to $46.9 million. Although, apparel unit sales were up 5.5% for the quarter, average selling price was down 6.6%. Consolidated gross profit margin (“margin”) during the quarter increased 400 basis points over last year’s comparable quarter from 23.7% to 27.7%. On a quarter comparison basis, print margin increased 210 basis points, from 28.7% to 30.8%, while apparel margin increased 650 basis points, from 15.2% to 21.7%. Apparel margin continued to improve on a comparable basis due to lower input costs and higher production levels. As a result, net earnings increased from $6.2 million, or 4.8% of net sales, for the quarter ended November 30, 2012 to $9.3 million, or 6.8% of net sales, for the quarter ended November 30, 2013. Diluted earnings per share increased 50.0% from $0.24 for the 2012 quarter to $0.36 for the 2013 quarter.

For the nine month period, consolidated net sales increased from $409.9 million to $410.3 million, or 0.1% from the same period last year. Print sales for the nine month period were $250.1 million, compared to $254.9 million for the same period last year, a decrease of $4.8 million, or 1.9%. Apparel sales for the nine month period were $160.2 million, compared to $155.0 million for the same period last year, or an increase of $5.2 million or 3.4%. Apparel unit sales increased 9.8% for the period, while average selling price per unit decreased 6.4%. The consolidated margin increased from 22.6% to 26.9% for the nine months ended November 30, 2012 and 2013, respectively. Print margin increased

during the period from 29.1% to 30.2%, as a result of the elimination of duplicative costs associated with the integration of acquisitions. Apparel margin increased 970 basis points from 12.0% to 21.7% for the comparable nine month period, due to lower input costs and increased production levels. Net earnings increased from $17.6 million, or 4.3% of net sales, for the nine months ended November 30, 2012 to $27.7 million, or 6.7% of net sales, for the nine months ended November 30, 2013. Diluted earnings per share increased 55.9% from $0.68 to $1.06 for the nine months ended November 30, 2012 and 2013, respectively.

During the third quarter, the Company generated $19.0 million in EBITDA (a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as net earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) compared to $13.2 million for the comparable quarter last year. For the nine month period ended November 30, 2013, the Company generated $54.9 million of EBITDA compared to $38.9 million for the comparable period last year.

The following table reconciles EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to the most comparable GAAP measure, net earnings (dollars in thousands):

	Three months ended						Nine months ended
	November 30,						November 30,
	2013			2012			2013			2012
Net earnings	$	9,349		$	6,170		$	27,656		$	17,641
Income taxes		5,490			3,330			16,241			9,923
Interest expense		342			335			809			1,206
Depreciation/amortization		3,776			3,330			10,193			10,113
EBITDA (non-GAAP)	$	18,957		$	13,165		$	54,899		$	38,883
EBITDA, as % of sales		13.9	%		10.2	%		13.4	%		9.5	%

The Company believes the non-GAAP financial measure of EBITDA provides important supplemental information to both management and investors regarding financial and business trends used in assessing its results of operations. The Company believes adding back the specified items to net earnings provides a more meaningful comparison to the corresponding reported periods and internal budgets and forecasts, provides management with a more relevant measurement of operating performance and is more useful in assessing management performance. In addition, EBITDA is a component of the financial covenants and an interest rate metric in the Company’s credit facility.

Keith Walters, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented by stating, “Overall we are pleased with our results for the quarter. Our apparel results continued to improve as lower input costs of manufacturing and raw materials continues to favorably impact comparable operational results. Although we continue to make cost-side improvements, the apparel market continues to be extremely challenging, both from a volume and pricing perspective. During the third quarter, we faced increased pricing pressures due to competitors discounting. Whether this discounted pricing, which we believe is driven by a desire to maintain certain production volumes, will continue into the next calendar year or not is unknown. With respect to the print segment, our print margin continues to improve as we continue to integrate our acquisitions. We are pleased to expand our market share in envelopes and presentation folders through our new acquisitions during the current quarter. While the market continues to be challenging, we remain optimistic about the remainder of the fiscal year and the first part of next year.”
