Gross Profit $7.6 million $5.7 million +32.9%
Net Income $2.9 million $3.2 million -9.4%
Fully diluted EPS $0.10 $0.13 -23.1%

(three months ended June 30,) 2010 2009 CHANGE
Electronic Components $28.8 million $29.1 million -1.0%
% of Sales 65.6% 92.7%
Virtual Contract Manufacturing $13.3 million -- --
% of Sales 30.3%
Supply Chain Management Services $1.8 million $2.3 million -21.7%
% of Sales 4.1% 7.3%
Total Sales $43.9 million $31.4 million +39.9%
Cost of Sales - Cost of goods sold totaled $36.3 million in the second quarter of 2010, up 41.5% from $25.7 million in the second quarter of 2009.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin - Gross profit for the second quarter of 2010 totaled $7.6 million, an increase of 32.9% over $5.7 million in the second quarter of 2009. For the second quarter of 2010, gross profit margin decreased 90 basis points to 17.3% from the second quarter of 2009, which was primarily due to the lower contribution from its high-margin supply chain business. Compared to the first quarter of 2010, gross margin decreased by 110 basis points from 18.4%. Gross margin in the quarter for the ECP, SCM and VCM businesses were 12.2%, 98.4%, and 17.2%, respectively. As the higher margin VCM business grows as a percentage of total revenues, the Company expects overall gross margins to improve in the second half of 2010 from second quarter levels. The gross margin in the VCM business was adversely affected in Q2 2010 by the PCBA production business, which the Company outsourced to build demand for its new surface mount machines that were installed in July. The Company is currently ramping up production of these machines as an important growth component for its VCM business. With the exception of the lower margins associated with PCBA production for third parties, gross margins in the mobile phone sales business stayed relatively constant in Q2 with the 20.4% that was recorded in Q1.
Operating Expenses - Total operating expenses were $3.2 million, or 7.4% of revenues in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $1.6 million, or 5.0% of revenues in the same period in 2009. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2010 from $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2009, as the Company spent on capacity expansion at its new factory to prepare for the ramp in its VCM business. Income from operations was $4.4 million in the second quarter of 2010, a 5.3% increase from $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2009, and represented operating margins of 9.9% and 13.2% for each respective period.
Net Income - Net income for the second quarter of 2010 fell 9.4% to $2.9 million, or $0.10 per fully diluted share, compared to $3.2 million, or $0.13 per fully diluted share, in the second quarter of 2009, based on 28.8 million and 25.2 million weighted average, diluted shares outstanding, respectively.

"We are pleased to report a solid first half of the year, as sales from our new virtual contract manufacturing (VCM) business exceeded our expectations. We produced about 250,000 handsets in the second quarter, up from roughly 200,000 during the first quarter, while our sales pipeline continues to improve. As we bring on additional capacity to support our fast growing VCM business, we expect this segment to contribute meaningfully to top and bottom line growth during the second half of the year. Revenues from our ECP business unit were up 31% year to date and we expect measured growth for the balance of the year as we expand our customer base and overall volumes," said Harry Cochran, Chief Executive Officer of SinoHub. "While margins were impacted by the product mix during the quarter, we expect our relationships with large design houses to boost overall volume and growth rates within our ECP business."
Cost of Sales - Cost of goods sold totaled $67.8 million in the first half of 2010, up 69.9% in dollar terms from $39.9 million in the first half of 2009.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin - Gross profit for the first half of 2010 totaled $14.7 million, an increase of 54.7% over $9.5 million in the first half of 2009. Gross profit margin for the first half of 2010 was 17.8% compared to 19.3% in the same period last year. The year-over-year decline was primarily due to lower contribution from its higher-margin SCM business and somewhat lower margins in its ECP business due to seasonal factors. In the first six months of operation, the VCM business generated margins of 18.3%.
Operating Expenses - Total operating expenses were $5.8 million, or 7.0% of revenues, in the first half of 2010 compared to $2.8 million, or 5.7% of revenues, in the same period in 2009. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $4.1 million in the first half of 2010 from $2.0 million in the first half of 2009 to support the rapid growth in its VCM business. Income from operations was $8.9 million in the first half of 2010, an increase of 32.9% from $6.7 million in the first half of 2009. Operating margins were 10.8% compared to 13.5%.
Net Income - Net income for the first half of 2010 increased 23.1% to $6.4 million, or $0.23 per fully diluted share, compared to $5.2 million, or $0.21 per fully diluted share, in the first half of 2009, based on 28.3 million and 25.2 million weighted average, diluted shares outstanding, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
SinoHub's cash and cash equivalents grew to $9.5 million at June 30, 2010 from $8.3 million at December 31, 2009. The Company had working capital of $48.5 million on June 30, 2010, up from $39.4 million at the end of 2009, and a current ratio of 2.9 to 1 at June 30, 2010 compared to a current ratio of 3.2 to 1 at December 31, 2009. Inventories were approximately $8.2 million and accounts receivable were $40.9 million on June 30, 2010, compared to approximately $11.6 million and $28.8 million on December 31, 2009, respectively. DSOs were 85 days for the second quarter of 2010 compared to 83 days in the same year ago period. During the first six months of 2010, the Company used $2.0 million in cash in operations versus $1.9 million used in operations in the same period in 2009.
Full-year 2010 Revenue Guidance
For full fiscal year 2010, SinoHub reaffirmed revenue guidance of $180 million, representing anticipated year-over-year growth of 40% over 2009. Guidance includes approximately $50 million in anticipated sales from its virtual contract manufacturing (VCM) business.
Business Review and Outlook
In April 2010, SinoHub commenced operations at its new 77,500 sq. ft. mobile phone manufacturing facility located in the Bao'an district of Shenzhen, China, marking a significant milestone in the development of the Company's VCM business unit. By operating its own manufacturing facility, the Company believes it can leverage its SCM platform to ensure the quality and on-time delivery of initial and rush phone orders, resulting in incremental revenue and earnings growth with higher associated gross and operating margins.
The Company recently expanded its production facility to 6 assembly lines, with production capacity of about 200,000 handsets per month, to accommodate anticipated growth. In addition, the Company installed 3 high speed and 1 medium speed surface mount lines during the second quarter with production capacity of approximately 200,000 mobile phone mother boards per month.
During its first six months of operations, the VCM business generated $19.7 million of revenues, with gross margins of 18.3% higher than the Company's 17.6% consolidated rate. The second quarter included some outsourced printed circuit board assembly production work which was lower margin but built demand for utilization of the new SMT lines in Q3. Management expects margins to improve as it makes improvements in operating efficiencies and product mix, while shifting away from outsourced work over time so this production capacity can be dedicated to the Company's own mobile phone customers. Having produced and sold roughly 450,000 phones in the first six months of this year, the Company remains on track to meet its stated goal of selling at least one million phones for the full year 2010. "We remain extremely excited about the growth prospects for our VCM business," stated CEO Harry Cochran. "With a higher replacement rate and private label phone manufacturers continuing to gain share in countries like Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam and India, we are well positioned to participate in robust growth of mobile phones in emerging markets."
