  1. (1)Corporate operations include the results of the Miami business.

  2. (2)For the six months ending June 30, 2012, net loss includes $352,065 of the loss on settlement of the pre-existing relationship related to the NYC acquisition and one-time costs related to the franchisee litigation. These costs have been classified as one-time costs.

System Sales

Redishred's management team continued to focus its efforts through its franchisees and its corporate locations on (1) building recurring service revenues, (2) maximizing route density and logistical efficiencies and (3) implementing dedicated hard drive destruction trucks throughout the system. The strong service system sales results are driven by Redishred's sales and marketing programs that are aimed at educating clients on the legislative requirements to destroy confidential information using a secure on-site solution. Additionally, a larger number of clients are requiring their facilities to recycle all products, including office paper and, by using our service, clients are assured that documents are securely destroyed and the materials are recycled. Proshred also offers hard drive destruction services in almost all of its locations, and has been deploying high speed on site hard drive destruction trucks. Currently four franchised locations have deployed high speed on-site hard drive destruction trucks.

These factors led to strong growth in scheduled and unscheduled sales in the second quarter of 2013 of 16% and 27% over the same quarter in 2012, respectively.

Recycling system sales increased by 7% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 in comparison to the same period in 2012. During the first half of 2013, the PROSHRED(R) system shred and recycled 12,700 tons of paper, which equates to 190,000 trees saved.

Corporate Operations

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, Redishred operated four shredding locations in Syracuse, NY, Albany, NY, Milwaukee, WI and New York City, NY. The Miami business is jointly operated by Redishred and the Company's Tampa Bay, FL franchisee location. The results of the Miami business are not included below.

During the first quarter of 2013, the Syracuse and Milwaukee locations experienced significant truck down-time resulting in a decline in revenues during this period. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company refurbished the affected shredding vehicles to ensure high customer service levels are maintained. The corporate locations revenues grew 18% in the second quarter of 2013, over the first quarter of 2013.

During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the corporate locations revenues grew by 5% over the same comparative prior year period. The Company also significantly reduced its operating costs by 16% in the second quarter of 2013 over the second quarter of 2012. As a result, EBITDA increased 89% over the three months ended June 30, 2012.

Management's Comments on the Second Quarter of 2013

Jeffrey Hasham, the Company's CEO, had the following comments on the second quarter results, "We are very pleased to see that our service system sales and tonnage continue to increase over prior years. Setting another new quarterly record in Q2 is an added bonus and is a result of the hard work of our franchisees and employee's. All of our locations continued to deliver high levels of client service and also continued to invest in trucks and human resources. Our Corporate locations, in the second quarter continued to build upon the rebound in EBITDA seen in Q1, as the Company continued to invest in new trucks, new routing technology and new training programs. This helped us better service customers, which in turn continues to drive the turnaround in corporate location EBITDA."

Community and Social Commitment

Our locations under the PROSHRED(R) banner conducted 61 community shredding events in the six months ended June 30, 2013 as well as 19 community shredding events for Earth Day. These events provide an opportunity for our clients, clients' employees, local businesses and local residents to ensure their personal and confidential materials are securely destroyed. In addition to helping to reduce identity theft, several of these events allow for donations to various not-for-profit organizations. 100% of the shredded material is recycled, as our continued goal is to foster the use of fewer trees in the production of all paper products. Future community shredding event locations can be found at our website, www.proshred.com.
