Exhibit 99.1
NAPCO Security Systems, Inc. Announces Second Quarter Financial Results
--Second Quarter Sales Increase to $16.2 Million, EPS $0.06--
AMITYVILLE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NAPCO Security Systems, Inc., (Nasdaq: NSSC), one of the world’s leading suppliers of high performance electronic security equipment for over 30 years, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended December 31, 2007.
Net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2007 increased 1% to $16.2 million as compared to $16.1 million for the same quarter a year earlier. Net income for the quarter increased 2% to $1.2 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.1 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the same year ago period.
Net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2007 was relatively constant at $30.0 million as compared to $30.1 million for the prior year period. Net income for the six months ended December 31, 2007 was $1.5 million or $0.08 per diluted share, a decrease of 26% as compared to $2.1 million or $0.10 per diluted share in the prior year period.
Net income for the three and six months benefited from a reduced provision for income taxes as a result of a more efficient tax structure. This new structure resulted in a tax benefit for the December quarter of $102,000, which compares to a tax provision of $617,000 for the same quarter a year ago. The provision for the six months ended December 31, 2007 was $163,000 as compared to $1,145,000 for the same period a year ago. Our highly efficient production facility in the Dominican Republic has allowed us to be very competitive in the marketplace. We also take pride in the fact that this is an ISO 9001 facility demonstrating the highest level of quality. An additional benefit it now provides relates to our increased profit advantages from the aforementioned more efficient structure.
Richard Soloway, Chairman and President, noted, “While our sales increase was modest, I am encouraged with our performance in light of the current state of the economy. I was particularly satisfied with the sales of our commercial contract driven access control product line as well as the success of our International sales, which both increased this quarter. Our new IP Video Monitoring Division, iSee Video, continues to grow steadily and has become an important contributor to our sales growth.”
Mr. Soloway continued, “Going forward, NAPCO, the pioneer in recurring revenue IP video monitoring, will continuously be expanding this division’s successful iSee Video product line. The iSee Video product line allows homeowners and businesses to remotely view live video or stored video clips of activity in their homes or businesses, from any computer or web-enabled cell phone, anywhere in the world. This video service provides NAPCO and its partners, some of which are the biggest names in the security installation business, with an incremental, recurring revenue income stream. In line with our business expansion plans, a full suite of enhanced products will be introduced early Spring, addressing virtually any residential, small business and commercial IP video monitoring application.
“The launch of our new NAPCO Freedom 64 digital, coded keypad ideally rounds out our Freedom 64 intelligent entry, false alarm resistant burglar and fire alarm platform”, Mr. Soloway added. This positions the Freedom 64 as the market’s most user-friendly and installer-flexible intrusion alarm systems.
Mr. Soloway concluded, “We strongly believe that our Company is entering a new era of growth and profitability in a highly secure industry.”
