Symax Lift (Holdings) Co. Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:SYL) ("Symax" or the "Company") announces its financial results for the three-month period ending September 30, 2012. Highlights -- Gross profit decreased by 0.4% to $1.9 million during the third quarter of 2012, over the same quarter of previous year; gross margin increased to 30% in 2012 from 21% in the same quarter of previous year. -- Sales of Dingtai Passenger Elevator decreased by $2 million or 37% to $3.4 million, sales of Other elevators & after-sale services decreased by $2.1 million or 57% to $1.6 million, respectively, during the quarter, compared to the third quarter of the previous year due to the impact of the real estate development slow-down in Chinese Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities. Despite this, during the third quarter, the Company's new Green Passenger Elevator product line targeted at lower rise government housing developments and tier 3 and 4 city developments achieved $1.3 million in sales with 37% gross margin. -- Sales decreased by $2.9 million or 31% to $6.3 million and by $0.9 million or 4% to $21.3 million during the third quarter and first nine months of 2012, respectively, over the same periods of previous year. -- Operation expenses increased by $0.5 million or 46% to $1.6 million during the third quarter of 2012, over the same quarter of previous year. Just over half of this rise in operation expenses was the result of increased selling expenses due to higher sales commissions paid on high gross margin products. The balance of the increase in operation expenses arose from higher G&A expense as a result of the start-up costs of Symax Stairlift Co, Ltd. -- Net income decreased to $0.1million ($0.00 per share) during the third quarter of 2012, compared to $0.6 million ($0.02 per share) in 2011. EBITDA was $0.5 million during the third quarter of 2012, representing a decrease of 52% over the same quarter of previous year. -- Symax Stairlift Co., Ltd. was set up in September, 2012 to develop, manufacture and distribute residential and commercial accessibility equipment for people with mobility challenges. Symax Stairlift is in the start-up stage, and is expected to launch its products in the second quarter of 2013. "With our Dingati and new Green elevator products, Symax is continuing to grow its market position in government housing developments and the domestic Tier 3 and 4 cities marketplace," stated Ms. Sabrina Zhang, CEO of Symax. "The set-up of Symax Stairlift will enable the Company to expand its product lines and is expected to contribute to Symax sales and net income increase in the near future." With the launch of the Green product line, the company experienced an increase in exports during this quarter to 16% of sales compared with 4% in the same period of 2011. This higher level of exports contributed to higher margins during the quarter.
