Adam Blumenfeld, Chairman of the Board and CEO, stated: “We
are pleased to announce today’s results which
showcase continued strong operating performance across the platform. It
is a testament to our managers and hardworking employees that virtually
every key metric is moving in the right direction, most notably SG&A,
which actually decreased $671,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008
versus the year-ago comparative period. The combination of top-line
growth, gross margin expansion and year over year expense reduction
proved to be the perfect recipe for significant growth in cash flows and
earnings leverage, allowing the company to produce operating margins of
approximately 10% for the third quarter, and a 47% increase in earnings
per share.
“Strategically, we are very pleased with both
the performance and positioning of the Company. In this challenging
macroeconomic environment, we believe - more than ever - entities with a
superior balance sheet, seasoned management and a scalable
infrastructure will be rewarded. Sport Supply Group, with its growing
cash position and dominant footprint within the institutional sporting
goods space, has significant flexibility in terms of next steps. We
continue to review a number of organic and/or acquisition related
opportunities as we look to further enhance the platform and leverage
our position in the marketplace.”
