Results Commentary
Mr. Yu, Home System Group's CEO, stated, "Through the integration of our Weihe subsidiary, acquired in October of 2008, the Company has successfully expanded the sales market of fans and lightings and redistributed elements of the Company’s resources to this business segment to more fully develop the opportunities that we see in that market. In the first quarter of 2010, Home System benefited from the substantial increase in sales of ceiling fans and decorative lightings, and we are hopeful that this growth will continue in the rest of 2010. I am particularly pleased that our management team accurately anticipated the decreased order level of barbeque grills and adjusted the Company’s production and product mix quickly. I am very proud of how well the Home System team responded to this situation.”
Home System Group's first quarter 2010 revenue of $30 million benefited from the $23.1 million of revenue due to strong performance in our fans and lightings segment. This was partially offset by the lower sale of approximately $3.2 million of barbeque grills and skateboards, which was the source of the resources reallocated to fans and lightings.
Gross profit was $6.9 million compared to $3.8 million for the same period last year, an increase of 84%. Gross profit margin for the first quarter of 2010 was 23.1%, slightly decreased compared to 24.4% for the same period last year.
General selling and administrative expense for the first quarter of 2010 was $1.6 million, a relatively modest increase as compared to $1.4 million for the same period in 2009, in spite of the large increase in our sales.
As a result, income from operations for the first quarter of 2010 was $5.3 million, an increase of 125% compared with $2.4 million for the corresponding quarter of 2009. Operating margin was 17.7% for the first quarter of 2010, increasing from the 15.3% for the first quarter of 2009.
For first quarter of 2010, the Company reported other income of $832,513 compared with other income of $61,737 for the corresponding quarter last year, primarily from the sales of excess raw materials consisting of stainless steel cold coil.
Net income was $4.6 million for the first quarter of 2010, an increase of over 200% from $1.5 million of the first quarter of 2009. Basic and diluted earnings per share in first quarter of 2010 were $0.07 compared to $0.02 per basic and diluted share in the first quarter of 2009.
Mr. Yu concluded, "Home System has achieved outstanding results in the first quarter of 2010, and we look forward to seeing continued strong performance on fans and lightings segment for the upcoming quarters. Moreover, the Company plans to continue its international business platform in Hong Kong which purchases home appliances or accessories in China and sells to international buyers. We believe this channel will also have positive impact on expanding our operational subsidiaries’ sales activities and broaden the customer base. We expect to see continuing progress in our business development in the second quarter of 2010.”
