The results will be discussed in a conference call to be held on Friday, April 29, 2011 at 10:00 AM Eastern time. The dial-in telephone number is (866) 804-3546 and the pass code is “WSTG”.

Cash and marketable securities amounted to $15.4 million, representing 58% of equity as of March 31, 2011.

 

Net sales for the first quarter of 2011 increased 28% or $11.1 million to $51.5 million compared to $40.4 million for the same period in 2010. Total sales for the first quarter of 2011 for our Lifeboat segment were $39.5 million compared to $29.1 million in the first quarter of 2010, representing an increase of $10.4 million or 36%. Total sales for the first quarter of 2011 for our Programmer’s Paradise segment were $12.0 million compared to $11.2 million in the first quarter of 2010, representing a 7% increase.

 

“The first quarter of 2011 was a great quarter for us,” said Simon F. Nynens, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our continued high growth rate shows that software publishers and our customers are exceedingly satisfied with our service model, as we continue to expand our offerings. We announced on April 6, 2011 that Mike Faith joined our board of directors. We all look forward to learning from Mike’s insights and experience in service excellence and marketing.”

 

Sales from our Lifeboat segment showed strong growth. The 36% increase in net sales in the first quarter of 2011 compared to 2010 was mainly a result of our continued focus on the expanding virtual infrastructure-centric business, the addition of several key product lines, and the strengthening of our account penetration.

 

Gross Profit for the quarter ending March 31, 2011 was $4.8 million compared to $4.0 million in the first quarter of 2010, a 22% increase. Total gross profit for our Lifeboat segment was $3.4 million compared to $2.7 million in the first quarter of 2010, representing a 29% increase. This increase in gross profit was due to aggressive sales volume growth within our Lifeboat segment. Total gross profit for our Programmer’s Paradise segment was $1.4 million compared to $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2010, representing a 7% increase. This increase was primarily due to the higher sales volume. Vendor rebates

 



 

and discounts for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 amounted to $0.5 million compared to $0.3 million for the first quarter of 2010, mainly a result of our aggressive sales growth.

 

Total gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, for the first quarter of 2011 was 9.4%, compared to 9.8% in the first quarter of 2010.

 

The increase in gross profit dollars and the decrease in gross profit margin as a percentage of net sales was primarily caused by the aggressive sales growth within our Lifeboat segment, competitive pricing pressure in both segments, and also in part by our having won several large bids based on aggressive pricing, which we plan to continue to do.

 

Total selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were $3.5 million compared to $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2010, which was mainly the result of an increase in employee related expenses (salaries, commissions, bonus and benefits) of $0.4 million and an increase in sales and marketing expenses of $0.1 million. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses for the first quarter of 2011 were 6.9% compared to 7.5% in the first quarter of 2010.

 

On April 26, 2011, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $.16 per share of its common stock payable May 19, 2011 to shareholders of record on May 9, 2011.
