| | Brian Baker, Chief Executive Officer Thank you, Gabe. This morning, we issued a press release announcing the financial results of our third quarter ended March 31st, 2024. On today's call, I'll provide some initial commentary. Then I'll turn it over to Gabe for a financial report. Following Gabe's report, I'll provide an update on our 2024 fiscal year guidance and provide closing remarks. The Operator will then open the phone lines for questions. For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we continue to focus on our sales goals and improving profitability. During the quarter, we made another series of cost reductions as a part of our ongoing effort to align costs to today's revenue volume. These steps allowed our gross margin rates to remain in line year-over-year and reducing operating expenses by $3.7 million year-to-date. Our commercial and operations teams continue to strive to meet our monthly and quarterly sales goals, and I'm proud of their achievements in the third quarter. Our three new Hausmann product introductions are progressing as scheduled. We work with our customers and key distributors to design these additions. Our new Timberline offers high quality solid wood furniture at an economical price. The Titan Premier Treatment Tables meet high-end functional requirements while supporting our customers' budget needs. We have strong inventory positions for both Titan Premier and Timber product lines to support our customer demand. We are pleased to see the high customer interest in these products and feedback from customers taking delivery has been positive. Our new Forage line complements our legacy protein products sold into the athletic training centres. Forage is an athletic training furniture solution offering heavy duty aluminum construction with customers' branding and colours. We are now quoting our Forage line for upcoming buildouts in the athletic training space. While it's too early to estimate the level of revenue contribution from these new product lines, we are optimistic they will enhance our existing sales base. I encourage you to visit our Hausmann website to learn more about these exciting additions. As a reminder, historically, the business experiences higher revenue in the first quarter, low second and third quarter revenue, with a bounce back in the fourth quarter. Recently, the business has experienced an increase in quote volume and although not all quotes convert to firm orders, we believe this is a positive leading indicator that the fourth quarter will align with historical trends. |
