Colonial Commercial Corp. Reports 2011 First Quarter Results
HAWTHORNE, New Jersey (May 13, 2011) – Colonial Commercial Corp. (“Colonial”) (OTC Markets Group OTCQB: “CCOM,” “CCOMP”), today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2011.
Sales for the quarter were $15,061,973, down 5.3%, or $835,926, from the prior-year quarter. The decrease in sales was substantially related to a reduction in demand for heating, ventilation and air conditioning units utilized in residential new construction and a reduction of commercial hydronic and plumbing bid and specification work.
Gross profit for the quarter was $4,178,467, down 3.3%, or $143,859, from the prior-year quarter. Gross profit expressed as a percentage of sales was 27.7% in 2011 compared to 27.2% for the comparable period in 2010. The decline in gross profit was directly related to the loss in sales. However, the increase in gross margins expressed as a percentage of sales was caused by the reduction in commercial bid and specification work and reduction of heating, ventilating and air conditioning units sold for new construction, both of which are sold at lower than normal margin percentages.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5,296,442, down 1.4%, or $73,965, from the prior-year quarter. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expense is primarily related to a $62,555 reduction in payroll and benefit costs, a $29,197 reduction in rent, a $21,087 reduction in depreciation and amortization and a $38,210 reduction in office expense, offset by a $38,236 increase in facility expense and a $27,794 increase in professional fees.
The Company’s net loss for the quarter was $1,265,779, up 8.1%, or $95,006, compared to the prior-year quarter. The increase in net loss is primarily the result of the $143,859 decrease in gross profit, partially offset by the $73,965 decrease in selling, general and administrative expense.
William Pagano, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, said, “We are pleased that in March 2011 we completed the restructure of our balance sheet as the Company issued 4,500,000 shares of stock for $2.25 million added capital. At the same time, we amended our loan agreement with Wells Fargo by extending the term of the loan an additional three years, lowering the interest rate by 1.5%, and increasing our ability to borrow against our assets. The Company should realize the benefit of this restructure in the near future.
The business climate for building related products in the Northeast remains tepid and extremely competitive as a large number of contractors, distributors and wholesalers struggle to maintain their respective market shares. On the positive side, we see many opportunities for increased sales of designed and engineered commercial systems and new products such as geothermal, water source heat pumps and variable refrigerant flow products. We anticipate that we will be able to capitalize on these opportunities as we prepare for the economic turnaround that we now anticipate to occur in mid 2012.”
