COLUMBUS, OH--(Marketwired - Aug 7, 2013) - SCI Engineered Materials, Inc. ("SCI") (
Dan Rooney, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We exited the second quarter with increased optimism based on solid bookings and improving market conditions. Order backlog was $2.4 million at June 30, 2013, which represents a 52% increase from the first quarter of this year. Our second quarter gross profit margin was at the highest level since 2010 benefiting from improved product mix. Specific actions we implemented earlier this year to reduce costs resulted in lower operating expenses sequentially and compared to the second quarter last year. These expenses continue to be actively monitored and will be adjusted going forward in response to product demand. We anticipate that our financial results for the second half of 2013 will be stronger than the first half of this year based on recent discussions with customers concerning their sales plans. There are increasing signs of positive developments in our markets and we are well-positioned to exploit these growth opportunities."
Total revenue
Total revenue was $1,792,775 for the three months ended June 30, 2013, which is $359,173 above the first quarter of 2013 and $910,953 below the second quarter 2012. The sequential quarter benefited from a customer's resumption of shipments following their inventory adjustment earlier this year. Second quarter 2013 revenue compared to a year ago was impacted by lower cost of a high priced raw material and lower volume.
Gross profit
Second quarter 2013 gross profit was $398,191 compared to $173,599 for the first quarter 2013 and $523,032 for the second quarter 2012. The sequential quarter increase is attributable to improved product mix and cost controls, while the year-over-year decline was primarily due to lower product volume. Gross profit margin of 22.2% for the second quarter of 2013 was above both the 12.1% for the first quarter of 2013 and 19.3% for the second quarter 2012.
Operating expense
Operating expense (marketing and sales, general and administrative, and R&D expenses) declined to $436,822 for the second quarter 2013 from $464,654 for the first quarter 2013 and $508,259 for the second quarter 2012. Second quarter 2013 operating expenses were below each of the prior periods principally due to lower professional fees and lower sales compensation.
(Loss) Income Applicable to Common Stock
There was a loss of $63,602, or $0.02 per share, for the second quarter 2013 compared to a loss of $267,594, or $0.07 per share, for the first quarter 2013 and income of $4,568, or breakeven per share, for the second quarter 2012. The sequential quarter difference was due to an increase in total revenue, improvement in gross profit and lower operating expenses.
EBITDA
Second quarter 2013 EBITDA (Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) was $112,647 compared to negative EBITDA of $89,953 for the first quarter 2013 and $159,997 of EBITDA for the second quarter 2012. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes non-cash stock based compensation, was $146,943 for the second quarter 2013 versus negative $54,518 for the first quarter 2013 and $195,778 for the second quarter 2012.
