Alliance Distributors Holding Inc. Reports 2009 Second Quarter Financial Results
NEW YORK, Aug. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Alliance Distributors Holding Inc. (Pink Sheets: ADTR.PK), a distributor of interactive video games and gaming products, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009.
Net sales for the quarter decreased 38% to $12.7 million from $20.5 million in the second quarter of 2008. Net income was $58,000 in the second quarter of 2009, compared to $253,000 in the second quarter of 2008.
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, net sales decreased 33% to $29.1 million, compared to $43.3 million for the same period in 2008. Net income was $214,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $285,000 for the comparable period in 2008.
Jay Gelman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our reduced sales level reflects that the challenging times have caught up with our industry. NPD Group, a market research firm, reports that domestic retail sales of video game hardware and software fell 31% in June compared to June 2008. NPD Group further reports that June was the fourth consecutive month of declining year over year sales in our industry.
"Our low margin console sales were particularly hard hit. The company's relative performance was also impacted by the release in the second quarter last year of some of the biggest titles of the year, including Grand Theft Auto IV. No similar major titles were released in the second quarter this year."
Mr. Gelman concluded, "We reacted to the decline in sales by selling a higher margin mix of product and continuing to carefully monitor our expenses. As a result, our gross profit as a percent of sales increased to 14.5% in the second quarter of 2009, from 10.2% in the comparable 2008 period."
