For the first quarter of 2011, the Company posted revenues of $17.8 million and net income of $1.7 million, or $0.21 per basic and diluted share. These results compare to revenues of $10.9 million and net income of $37,000, or $0.00 per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2010. Gross profit for the quarter was $6.3 million, or 35% of revenues, compared to $3.7 million, or 34% of revenues, for the first quarter of 2010.
The primary reason for the significant increase in first quarter 2011 net income was comparably higher sales of chips to casinos in Macau.
The Company ended the quarter with $30.8 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, as well as $7.1 million in debt.
"We are pleased with our strong first quarter results, due to delivery of a significant chip order for the pending Galaxy Macau casino opening," commented Greg Gronau, GPIC President and Chief Executive Officer. "Given projected casino openings and our sales backlog for 2011, revenues and earnings in the next three quarters may not reach the same levels that we saw in the first quarter."
