The Company’s lime and limestone gross profit in the first six months 2023 was $51.2 million, compared to $30.2 million in the first six months 2022, an increase of $21.0 million, or 69.6%. The increases in gross profit in the second quarter and first six months 2023, compared to the comparable 2022 periods, resulted primarily from the increased revenues discussed above, partially offset by increased production costs, principally from higher energy, parts and supplies, and labor costs.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $4.3 million in the second quarter 2023, compared to $3.8 million in the second quarter 2022, an increase of $0.5 million, or 12.2%. SG&A expenses were $8.5 million in the first six months 2023, compared to $7.5 million in the first six months 2022, an increase of $1.0 million, or 13.2%. The increases in SG&A expenses in the 2023 periods were primarily due to increased personnel expenses.
Interest and other income, net was $1.9 million and $3.5 million in the second quarter and first six months 2023, compared to $0.2 million in each of the second quarter and first six months 2022, reflecting increases of $1.7 million and $3.2 million, respectively. The increases in interest and other income, net in the second quarter and first six months 2023 were due to higher interest rates earned on higher average balances of cash and cash equivalents.
The Company reported net income of $19.7 million ($3.45 per share diluted) and $36.8 million ($6.46 per share diluted) in the second quarter and first six months 2023, respectively, compared to $10.2 million ($1.80 per share diluted) and $18.9 million ($3.33 per share diluted) in the second quarter and first six months 2022, respectively, reflecting increases of $9.5 million, or 92.5%, and $17.9 million, or 94.7%, respectively.
“We are pleased with our strong performance in the second quarter 2023. We continue to see pressure on our lime and limestone production costs, particularly for energy, parts and supplies, and labor. Softening demand from our steel customers is potentially an indicator of some hesitancy from that sector as the U.S. economy faces uncertainty for the remainder of 2023 and higher interest rates adversely impact the construction markets. This could impact future demand and prices for our products,” said Timothy W. Byrne, President and Chief Executive Officer.
