McRae Industries, Inc. Reports Earnings For The Third Quarter And First Nine Months Of Fiscal 2017
MOUNT GILEAD, N.C., June 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- McRae Industries, Inc. (Pink Sheets: MCRAA and MCRAB) reported consolidated net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 of $24,092,000 as compared to $25,150,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Net earnings for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 amounted to $1,202,000, or $0.50 per diluted Class A common share as compared to $681,000, or $0.28 per diluted Class A common share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2016.
Consolidated net revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 totaled $82,078,000 as compared to $85,681,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 2016. Net earnings for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 amounted to $4,361,000, or $1.81 per diluted Class A common share, as compared to net earnings of $4,075,000, or $1.68 per diluted Class A common share, for the first nine months of fiscal 2016.
THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2017 COMPARED TO THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2016
Consolidated net revenues totaled $24.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 as compared to $25.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Sales related to our western/lifestyle boot products for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 totaled $10.1 million as compared to $12.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. This 19% decrease in net revenues is primarily a result of decreased sales in our premium western boots, children's boots, and women's fashion boots. Revenues from our work boot products grew approximately 9%, from $12.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016 to $13.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2017, primarily due to an increase in production of military boots related to our multiple government contracts.
Consolidated gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 amounted to approximately $5.8 million as compared to $5.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues was up from 22.3% for the third quarter of fiscal 2016 to 24.2% for the third quarter of fiscal 2017. This is primarily a result of the increase in work boot product sales, specifically our military boots.
Consolidated selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses have decreased from $4.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016 to $4.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2017. This was primarily driven by decreased expenditures for commissions, salaries, and advertising.
As a result of the above, the consolidated operating profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 amounted to $1.8 million as compared to $1.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016.
FIRST NINE MONTHS FISCAL 2017 COMPARED TO FIRST NINE MONTHS FISCAL 2016
Consolidated net revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 totaled $82.1 million as compared to $85.7 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2016. Our western and lifestyle product sales totaled $38.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 as compared to $47.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2016, with the decrease coming from declines in our women's, children's, and premium western boot sales. Net revenues from our work boot business grew from $38.3 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2016 to $43.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017. This increase in work boot products net revenues resulted primarily from higher military boot shipments associated with our U. S. Government contracts and commercial sales.
Consolidated gross profit totaled $20.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 as compared to $21.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2016. Gross profit attributable to our western and lifestyle products totaled $13.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017, down from $16.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2016. This decrease in gross profit is directly correlated with the decrease in sales. Our work boot products gross profit grew from $4.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2016 to $7.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017. This increase was driven by the higher military boot shipments mentioned above.
Consolidated selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses totaled approximately $13.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 as compared to $15.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2016. This decrease in SG&A expenses resulted primarily from decreased expenditures for commissions, salaries, and advertising.
As a result of the above, the consolidated operating profit amounted to $6.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 as compared to $6.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2016.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
Our financial conditions remain strong at April 29, 2017 as cash and cash equivalents totaled $28.1 million as compared to $15.7 million at July 30, 2016. Our working capital increased from $50.5 million at July 30, 2016 to $53.8 million at April 29, 2017.
We currently have two lines of credit totaling $6.75 million, all of which was fully available at April 29, 2017.
