PRESS RELEASE
InfoSonics Reports Second Quarter 2013 Results
SAN DIEGO, August 14, 2013 – InfoSonics Corporation (NASDAQ: IFON), the provider ofverykool® wireless handset solutions, today announced results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2013.
“We are pleased with a number of achievements this quarter,” said Joseph Ram, president and CEO of InfoSonics. “Our results reflect the shipment of 432,000 handsets, the third consecutive quarter of record unit shipments. We were also pleased with our gross profit margin that topped 20%. Operating expenses included one-time costs related to the second quarter restructuring of our development team, which we estimate will result in annual savings of approximately $500,000. Other operating metrics for the quarter were also encouraging as we generated $1.8 million of positive cash flow, reduced our days-sales-outstanding in accounts receivable and increased our inventory turns. We continue to search for ways to expand our business in both existing and new geographic markets.”
InfoSonics reported net sales for the second quarter of 2013 of $8.3 million, which represented a $231,000, or 3%, increase from $8.1 million for the second quarter of 2012. We enjoyed a 64% increase in net sales to carrier customers in Central America and an 8% increase in South America. In addition, sales to U.S. distributors were greatly improved over the prior year quarter when we first re-entered the U.S. market. Partially offsetting these improvements was a $1.0 million decline in private label sales, as well as a decrease in sales to non-carrier Latin American distributors.
Gross profit margin as a percent of sales in the second quarter of 2013 was 20.7% compared to 25.3% in the 2012 second quarter. The higher gross margin in the prior year was principally the result of disproportionately higher margins on private label sales to customers in EMEA and APAC which were nominal in the current quarter.
Operating expenses in the second quarter of 2013 of $2.3 million declined 3% compared to $2.4 million in the 2012 second quarter. The current quarter included approximately $192,000 in nonrecurring costs related to the June consolidation of our R&D team in Shenzhen, China and the associated reduction of our Beijing workforce. We also had higher expenses related to legal fees, product certification, personnel and other administrative costs. The increases were offset by reductions in other areas, primarily a $235,000 reduction in bad debt expense as the 2012 second quarter included a large reserve against the receivable of a former distribution customer.
Other income in the second quarter of 2013 included $527,000 related to the legal defeasance of a previously recorded supplier obligation that had been included in accrued expenses on our balance sheet.
The net loss for the second quarter of 2013 was $47,000, or $0.00 per share, compared to a net loss of $265,000, or $0.02 per share, in the second quarter of 2012.
At June 30, 2013, the Company had $15.7 million in working capital, including $6.4 million in cash, and no outstanding indebtedness. Cash and restricted cash balances grew by $1.8 million compared to the March 31, 2013 balances primarily as a result of reductions in accounts receivable and inventories.
