Spectrum Group International, Inc. (OTCQB:SPGZ) today announced financial results for its first quarter of fiscal year 2014, which ended September 30, 2013.
Highlights for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2013:
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2013 decreased $130.1 million, or 7.8%, to $1.53 billion from $1.66 billion in the three months ended September 30, 2012. Trading revenues decreased $121.5 million, or 7.5%, to $1.49 billion, from $1.61 billion resulting from declining precious metal prices in the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. Collectible segment revenues decreased $8.6 million, or 16.7%, to $42.7 million from $51.3 million. The decrease was due in part to lower hammer prices at auction impacting our commissions.
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2013 increased $3.1 million, or 30.9%, to $13.3 million, or a gross profit margin of 0.9%, from $10.2 million, or a gross profit margin of 0.6% in the three months ended September 30, 2012. Both our Trading segment and our Collectibles segment experienced an increase in gross profit. Our Trading segment gross profit increased by $2.0 million, or 38.9%, to $7.2 million, or a gross profit margin of 0.5% from $5.2 million, or a gross profit margin of 0.3% in 2012. The gross profit and profit margin percentage improved in our Trading segment as a result of a more favorable impact in spreads during the current year quarter in the precious metals commodity markets as compared to the prior year quarter. The Collectibles segment gross profit increased by $1.1 million, or 22.7%, to $6.2 million, or a gross profit margin of 14.4% from $5.0 million, or a gross profit margin of 9.8% in the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was due to a larger percentage of sales of higher margin numismatic materials in the current year quarter compared to the prior year quarter.
General and administrative expenses increased $0.3 million, or 5.2%, to $5.4 million in 2013 from $5.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2012, due primarily to increases in professional and consulting fees related to our anticipated spin-off of the Trading segment. Salaries and wages increased $0.5 million, or 8.4%, to $6.3 million in 2013 from $5.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in salaries and wages was primarily the result of higher levels of discretionary based compensation expense and new hiring in both segments compared to the prior year quarter.
Pre-tax income from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $1.6 million compared to a pre-tax loss of $667,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2012, a favorable increase of $2.3 million. The increase was primarily due to the increase in gross profit discussed above which was partially offset by increases in general and administrative expenses and salaries and wages expense in the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.
Excluding the impact of non-cash unrealized foreign exchange (losses) gain, pre-tax income (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 would have been $1.6 million and $(0.008) million, respectively.
