From Nov 2019 to Nov 2024
Mace Security International, Inc., (OTCPINK: MACE) today announced audited financial results (all amounts in thousands) for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2014, reflecting a $924 and $1,475 improvement in income from continuing operations compared to prior year for the fourth quarter, and year ended December 31, respectively.
"In 2014 we continued our efforts to evolve the company into the premier brand in safety and security. The Mace® Brand name continues to dominate the marketplace as we successfully extended our brand offerings in both the tactical and consumer divisions,” said John J. McCann, President and CEO of Mace.
Financial Results, Fourth Quarter Ended December 31, 2014 and 2013
Net revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014 totaled $2,091, as compared to prior year fourth quarter revenues of $2,099, a slight decrease of approximately $8.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter totaled $807 compared to $714, an increase of $93 or 13% on margins of 38.6% and 34%, respectively. The increase in gross profit can be attributed to a $73 or 26% decrease in labor and a $52 or 67% reduction in inventory related costs.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $1,164 and $1,902, respectively, a $738 or 38.9% expense reduction. This decrease is mainly attributed to a $205 reduction in salaries, legal, insurance and professional expenses and $533 in one-time non-recurring charges in 2013.
Loss from continuing operations for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2014 was $387, as compared to a loss from continuing operations of $1,311 in the fourth quarter of 2013, a $924 or 70.5% improvement.
Net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 was $393, as compared to net income of $613 for the same period last year. The $1,006 decrease in net income is mainly attributed to a $2,340 gain on the sale of the Mace Central Station in 2013, reported as income from discontinued operations.
Financial Results, Year Ended December 31, 2014 and 2013
Net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014 totaled $7,794, as compared to prior year net revenues of $8,018, a decrease of $224 or 2.8%. The decrease in net revenues is primarily attributed to a $233 or 39.5% decline in Non-Aerosol products, and a $105 or 29.8% decline in TG Guard product sales. Offsetting these declines was a $68 or 48% increase in our Take Down® Brand of products, which is supplied to law enforcement and security personnel, and a $36 or 0.7% increase in Aerosol product sales.
Gross profit for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $2,855 and $3,087, respectfully. The $232 or 7.5% decrease in gross profit is mainly attributed to a decrease in sales and lower margins on Surveillance Products.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 totaled $4,849 and $6,336, respectively, a decrease of $1,487 or 23.5%. The decrease can be attributed to a $426 decrease in legal, professional, and audit fees; and $454 attributed to reduced staff, facility costs, and insurance premiums. Prior year SG&A included approximately $700 in one-time charges related to severance, relocation of manufacturing to Cleveland, and the write off of capitalized insurance premiums that were not repeated in 2014. Offsetting the reductions in SG&A expenses listed above was a $118 increase in marketing and advertising expenses.
Loss from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $2,106, as compared to a loss from continuing operations of $3,581 in 2013. The $1,475 or 41.2% improvement is mainly attributed to the elimination of one-time expenses incurred in 2013, and an overall decrease in SG&A expenses as mentioned above.
Income from discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $402, as compared to income from discontinued operations of $1,560 in 2013. The income in 2014 is attributed to an adjustment on the selling price of the Mace Central Station business. The $1,560 in income from discontinued operations in 2013 is mainly attributed to a gain on the sale of the Mace Central Station.
Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $1,704 as compared to a net loss of $2,021 for the same period last year, an improvement of $317 or 15.7%.
