Natural Alternatives International, Inc. Announces Fiscal 2012 Q1 Results
- Net Sales Increase 37%
- Income From Operations Increase 151%
SAN MARCOS, Calif., Nov. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Natural Alternatives International, Inc. ("NAI") (Nasdaq: [ NAII ]), a leading formulator, manufacturer and marketer of customized nutritional supplements, today announced net income of $1.5 million or $0.22 per diluted share on net sales of $18.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.
Net sales during the three months ended September 30, 2011 increased $5.0 million or 37.3% from $13.4 million recorded in the comparable prior year period. For the quarter ended September 30, 2011, contract manufacturing sales increased $4.1 million or 32.4% from the comparable quarter last year due primarily to higher sales to new and existing customers. Patent and trademark licensing revenue increased to $1.3 million or 322% during the first quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to $316,000 for the comparable prior year period. This licensing revenue was derived through the sale of the ingredient known as beta-alanine sold under our CarnoSyn® trademark and resulted from increased popularity of beta-alanine as a sports nutrition supplement and through expanded licensing distribution. The increases in manufacturing and licensing revenues were partially offset by a decline in our branded products sales, which totaled $401,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to $492,000 for the comparable prior year period.
Our revenue concentration risk for our two largest customers decreased to 69% as a percentage of our total sales for the first three months of fiscal 2012 compared to 71% in the first three months of fiscal 2011.
Net income in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was $1.5 million or $0.22 per diluted share compared to net income of $912,000 or $0.13 per diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to higher sales and patent and trademark licensing revenue, along with a reduction in per unit manufacturing costs associated with the increased sales volume.
As of September 30, 2011, NAI had cash of $13.6 million and working capital of $25.2 million compared to $15.5 million and $22.9 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, we had $5.7 million available under our line of credit agreements.
Mark A. LeDoux, NAI Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "The first quarter of this fiscal year has demonstrated the power of focus and execution, coupled with improvement in product requirements by our current customers. We believe our customers engaged in direct sales to consumers are experiencing some measure of growth as a result of improved economic conditions in their distribution channels.
