ADDvantage Technologies Announces Financial Results for the
Fiscal First Quarter of 2014
- - -
BROKEN ARROW, Oklahoma, February 13, 2014 – ADDvantage Technologies Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: AEY), today announced its results for the three month period ended December 31, 2013.
Total revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2013 decreased 28% to $6.9 million compared with $9.6 million for the same period last year. New equipment sales were $4.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 as compared with $5.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Net refurbished equipment sales were $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 as compared with $3.0 million for the same period last year. Sales of new and refurbished equipment were lower due to the equipment sales last year resulting from Hurricane Sandy and the continued decrease in plant expansions and bandwidth upgrades in the cable television industry. Service revenue was decreased to $0.9 million for the three month period ended December 31, 2013 as compared with $1.0 million for the same period last year.
Net income for the three month period ended December 31, 2013 was $0.2 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared with $0.8 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the same period of 2012. This decrease is primarily as a result of lower total revenue and sales last year of certain refurbished equipment purchased at significant discounts.
On January 31, 2014, ADDvantage Technologies entered into an agreement to sell the majority of the net assets and operations of Adams Global Communications (AGC) to Adams Cable Equipment (ACE) for approximately $2.0 million in cash. As part of the sales agreement, ADDvantage retains their existing relationship with ARRIS, as well as $0.9 million of headend and access and transport inventory. In addition, ADDvantage will retain the Adams Global Communications facility, which we intend to sell in the future.
David Humphrey, President and CEO, commented, “The results for the quarter are disappointing and reflect our need to continue to move forward with our growth strategy. We are focused on realigning our business in an effort to address the general cable television (CATV) equipment industry, which has experienced a downturn over the past several years. This strategy entails making enhancements to our sales team in order to promote a more cohesive sharing of customer information between each of our subsidiaries’ teams, identifying additional product offerings to sell to our customer base, as well as identifying segments within our business that do not fit within our core competencies or long-term growth strategy, which ultimately included selling the majority of AGC.
“We elected to sell AGC as we determined that AGC did not fit within our core cable television equipment distribution business of selling new and used headend and access and transport CATV equipment, nor was it performing to our expectations. In addition, we continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities to expand into the broader telecommunications industry, which we believe will allow us to generate additional growth opportunities and help diversify our business outside of the CATV industry,” concluded Mr. Humphrey.
