DGSE Reports Financial Results for Third Quarter of 2012

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--November 13, 2012--DGSE Companies, Inc. (NYSE MKT: DGSE) today announced the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012. On October 31, 2012 DGSE filed its restated Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and its Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, and its Forms 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively. With today’s filing and the October 31, 2012 filings, DGSE is current in its public company reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. DGSE believes it is fully in compliance with the listing requirements of NYSE MKT, LLC.

“We are pleased to have the restatement process firmly behind us,” said James Vierling, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of DGSE Companies, Inc. “While DGSE would have been profitable without the one-time restatement expenses presented in this filing, it is clear that we now need to turn our focus to expanding revenues and margins while reducing costs wherever possible.”

Mr. Vierling continued, “We believe that with the filing of our results for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012, DGSE’s new management has further demonstrated its commitment to timely, accurate reporting for our shareholders. The Company believes it is fully compliant with its listing requirements, and looks forward to the resumption of trading of its common shares on NYSE MKT in the very near future.”

Third Quarter 2012 Results

In the quarter ended September 30, 2012, sales decreased by $15.0 million or 34%, to $29.0 million, as compared to $44.0 million during the same period in 2011. The decrease was primarily driven by significantly lower sales of bullion, with moderate decreases across other categories. These decreases were partially offset by the acquisition of SBT, Inc. (“SBT”) in September of 2011, which added revenues of $7.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $4.5 million over the same period in 2011.

For the quarter, cost of sales decreased by $17.0 million, or 43% to $22.8 million, as compared to $39.8 million during the same period in 2011, primarily driven by lower sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue decreased from 90.4% in 2011 to 78.6% in 2012 primarily due to higher margins on the SBT business, as well as reduced sales of bullion which carry significantly lower margins than other categories.

Selling, General & Administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased by $3.3 million, or 107% to $6.4 million for the quarter, as compared to $3.1 million during the same period in 2011. $1.6 million of this increase is due to the addition of the SBT stores, while the opening of four new non-SBT stores added $870,000 in the current period, related to increased advertising, salaries, payroll taxes, building rent and other costs. $1.4 million of the $3.3 million SG&A increase were one-time expenses related to professional fees associated with the restatement of our financial statements, and the related Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) investigation. These additional expenses were partially offset by cost reduction efforts in the Company’s legacy operations.

In March 2012, current management decided to discontinue the operations of the Company’s Superior Galleries subsidiary due to the lack of profitability and our belief that it was unlikely that profitability would be reached in the foreseeable future. The Company officially discontinued operations in June of 2012 but recognized losses beginning in the first quarter of 2012 as discontinued operations. In the third quarter of 2012, the discontinued operations of Superior Galleries generated a net loss of $108,000. As of the third quarter of 2012 the Company believes that it has recognized all material losses related to the discontinued operations of Superior Galleries.

In the third quarter of 2011 the Company had a loss on settlement of debt with a related party of $1.7 million which decreased to $0 in the third quarter of the current year. The prior year loss was incurred in connection with the issuance of 400,000 shares of our common stock to NTR Metals, LLC, our majority stockholder (“NTR”), in exchange for $2,000,000 in debt forgiveness.

Prior to the charge to discontinued operations, the Company had a loss from continuing operations of $428,000 for the third quarter of 2012. Net loss after discontinued operations for the quarter was $536,000.

Excluding discontinued operations and one-time expenses associated with the restatement of our financial statements the Company would have generated a profit of $1.0 million for the quarter.

Year to Date 2012 Results

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 sales decreased by $7.2 million, or 7.4%, to $90.4 million, as compared to $97.6 million during the same period in 2011. The decrease was primarily driven by significantly lower sales of bullion, with moderate decreases across other segments. These decreases were partially offset by the acquisition of SBT in September of 2011, which added revenues of $22.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $19.0 million over the same period in 2011.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, cost of sales decreased by $14.3 million, or 16.3%, to $73.4 million, as compared to $87.7 million during the same period in 2011. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue decreased from 89.9% in 2011 to 81.2% in 2012 primarily due to higher margins on the SBT business, as well as reduced sales of bullion, which carry significantly lower margins than other categories.

SG&A expenses increased by $10.3 million, or 134%, to $18.0 million, as compared to $7.7 million during the same period in 2011. $5.4 million of this increase is due to the addition of the SBT stores, while the opening of four new non-SBT stores added $2.2 million in the current year, due to increased advertising, salaries, payroll taxes, building rent and other costs. Year to date, the Company has incurred $2.7 million in professional fees associated with the restatement of our financial statements, and the related SEC investigation.

For the nine months, the Company recognized losses from the discontinued operations of Superior Galleries of $768,000. As of the third quarter of 2012 the Company believes that it has recognized all material losses related to the discontinued operations of Superior Galleries.

As noted earlier, in 2011 the Company had a loss on settlement of debt with a related party of $1.7 million which decreased to $0 in the current year. The prior year loss was incurred in connection with the issuance of 400,000 shares of our common stock to NTR, our majority stockholder, in exchange for $2,000,000 in debt forgiveness.

Prior to the charge to discontinued operations, the Company had a loss from continuing operations of $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Net loss after discontinued operations for the period was $2.4 million.

Excluding discontinued operations and one-time expenses associated with the restatement of our financial statements the Company would have generated a profit of $1.1 million for the three quarters ended September 30, 2012.

Summary

“While the overall market for precious metals has been much softer in 2012 compared to the record setting 2011, where gold hit an all-time high, DGSE was able to largely mitigate the impact of revenue losses through significant margin improvements and the addition of SBT’s stores, which have added over $22 million in revenue in the first three quarters of 2012,” stated Mr. Vierling. “Although the Company’s continuing operations lost $1.7 million year to date, we have incurred $2.7 million in one-time costs associated with the restatement of our financial statements. Excluding these one-time expenses and the Company’s discontinued operations, the Company would have earned over $1 million year to date.”

“The restatement effort has been a significant drag on both the Company’s expenses and new management’s attention this year. With the restatement behind us, DGSE is highly focused on opening new stores, growing its existing business and reducing costs wherever possible,” stated Mr. Vierling. “We also look forward to the resumption of trading for our stock. While we have greatly appreciated the expression of support from many of our key stockholders, especially our majority stockholder NTR, we know that the trading halt has been difficult and frustrating. We are absolutely committed to ensuring transparency and liquidity for our shareholders in the future,” concluded Mr. Vierling.
