Quarter ended September 30, 2013 compared to quarter ended September 30, 2012
Total revenues increased 9.7% to $605.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to $551.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Revenue growth in the United States was 12.9% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Revenues decreased 6.5% in the United Kingdom, and were further reduced by 1.7% related to foreign currency translation. Commissions increased 7.8% to $4.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to $4.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.
Gross profit increased by 10.2% to $75.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to $68.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Gross profit as a percentage of total revenues was 12.4% for each of the quarters ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. While we experienced an improvement in vendor rebates as a percentage of total revenues, this was offset by a decrease in product margin. Vendor rebates for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 increased by $3.1 million compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2012 due to manufacturer rebate program changes and growth in revenues.
Operating income increased 14.3% to $22.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to $19.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. SG&A expenses increased 8.4% to $50.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to $46.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to an increase in compensation and benefit costs. We incurred approximately $1.0 million of acquisition-related costs in connection with our recently completed acquisition of IVESCO. SG&A expenses as a percentage of total revenues improved to 8.3% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to 8.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.
Net income increased 12.8% to $14.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to $12.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Diluted earnings per share were $1.12 and $0.99 for the quarters ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, an increase of 13.1%.
Fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 compared to fiscal year ended September 30, 2012
Total revenues increased 13.1% to $2.35 billion for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, compared to $2.08 billion for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. Revenue growth in the United States was 14.4% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Revenues increased 6.6% in the United Kingdom, but were reduced 1.0% related to foreign currency translation. Commissions increased 11.0% to $18.9 million during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, compared to $17.0 million during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012.
Gross profit increased by 14.0% to $304.3 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, compared to $266.9 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. Gross profit as a percentage of total revenues was 13.0% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, compared to 12.9% for the
fiscal year ended September 30, 2012, primarily due to an improvement in vendor rebates as a percentage of total revenues, offset in part by a decrease in product margin. Vendor rebates for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 increased by approximately $9.9 million compared to the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012, due to the timing of manufacturer rebate programs and growth in revenues.
Operating income increased 17.0% to $100.3 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, compared to $85.8 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. SG&A expenses increased 12.7% to $194.0 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, compared to $172.1 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to an increase in compensation and benefit costs. We incurred approximately $1.4 million of acquisition-related costs in connection with our acquisition of IVESCO. SG&A expenses as a percentage of total revenues were consistent at 8.3% for each of the fiscal years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.
Net income increased 17.5% to $62.8 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, compared to $53.5 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. Diluted earnings per share were $4.95 and $4.23 for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, an increase of 17.0%.
Business Outlook
The Company estimates that for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2014 revenues will be from $2.89 billion to $2.94 billion, which represents growth of 23% to 25% compared to revenues in fiscal year 2013. The Company estimates that diluted earnings per share will be from $5.47 to $5.67 per share, which represents growth of 10.5% to 14.5% compared to diluted earnings per share in fiscal year 2013. These estimates include the impact of the acquisition of IVESCO, which is expected to be slightly accretive during the eleven months of ownership in fiscal 2014, and include the effect of acquisition and integration costs. Additionally, these estimates are based on the Company’s current calendar-year and quarterly vendor contracts which typically undergo annual renegotiation and which may include terms such as rebates, commissions and exclusivity requirements.

Because such statements include risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those discussed in filings made by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Many of the factors that will determine the Company's future results are beyond the ability of management to control or predict. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect management's views only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements,
or to make any other forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Important assumptions and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking information include the impact of vendor consolidation on our business; changes in or availability of vendor contracts or rebate programs; vendor rebates based upon attaining certain growth goals; transitional challenges associated with acquisitions, including the failure to retain customers and the disproportionate demands on management resources to integrate acquired businesses; financial risks associated with acquisitions and investments; changes in the way vendors introduce/deliver products to market; seasonality; competition; inability to ship products to the customer as a result of technological or shipping disruptions; a disruption caused by adverse weather (i.e. drought) or other natural conditions or disasters; exclusivity requirements with certain vendors that may prohibit us from distributing competing products manufactured by other vendors or margin reductions if we become a non-exclusive distributor; the impact of general economic trends on our business; possible changes in the use of feed additives (antibiotics, growth promotants) used in production animal products due to trade restrictions, animal welfare and/or government regulations; the recall of a significant product by one of our vendors; risks associated with our international operations; the impact of tightening credit standards and/or access to credit on behalf of our customers and suppliers; extended shortage or backorder of a significant product by one of our vendors; our intellectual property rights may be inadequate to protect our business; the timing and effectiveness of marketing programs or price changes offered by our vendors; the timing of the introduction of new products and services by our vendors; unforeseen litigation; the ability to borrow on our revolving credit facility, extend the terms of our revolving credit facility or obtain alternative financing on favorable terms or at all; and risks from potential increases in variable interest rates. Other factors include changes in the rate of inflation; changes in state or federal legislation or regulation; the continued safety of the products the Company sells; and changes in the general economy.
