COMMAND SECURITY CORPORATION REPORTS

RESULTS FOR FIRST QUARTER OF FISCAL 2014

 

 

Herndon, VA***August 13, 2014***Command Security Corporation (NYSE MKT: MOC) announced today its financial results for its first fiscal quarter of 2015 ended June 30, 2014.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, revenues decreased 0.9% to $37,610,628, compared with revenues of $37,961,495 in the same period of the prior year. Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2014 increased by $931,621 to $1,168,946, compared with $237,325 in the same period of the prior year. Income before income taxes, including the Company’s equity earnings from its investment in Ocean Protection Services increased by $1,052,844 to $1,236,077 compared with $183,233 in the same period of the prior year. Net income increased by $657,844 to $691,077, or $0.07 per basic and diluted share, compared with $33,233, or $0.00 per basic and diluted share in the same period of the prior year.

 

The decrease in revenues for three months ended June 30, 2014, as compared with the corresponding period of the prior year was due primarily to a decline in revenues with a major transportation company of approximately $1.2 million following the loss of the western region services contract with this customer effective May 31, 2014; partly offset by an increase in revenues with banking and healthcare facilities in the northeastern region of the US.

 

The increase in operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year was due primarily to the increases in revenues as mentioned above, and a decrease in General and Administrative expenses driven primarily by a $0.5 million reduction in legal and labor settlement costs. The increase in net income and earnings per share were driven by increased income from operations, equity earnings from our investment in Ocean Protection Services and a lower overall effective tax rate.

 

Craig P. Coy, Chief Executive Officer of Command Security, stated, “Our management team has accomplished a great deal since the consolidation of our corporate offices last year. Enhancements to our operating systems, our management procedures and focused marketing strategy have significantly improved our ability to deliver better results. Our financial results for the quarter include the first full quarter of operations of Ocean Protection Services (OPS) since our investment in March 2014. To date, the operating results of OPS are consistent with our expectations. Like all companies similar to Command Security, we are preparing for the full implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) that will result in increased costs which we anticipate will be offset by increased billings to our customers. While we face the challenges of a highly competitive environment, we remain pleased with the Company’s overall direction and progress.”

 

 
 

 

The Company is pleased to report that on July 31, 2014, the United States District Court for Central California denied a motion for summary judgment by California Service Employees Health & Welfare Trust Fund and ruled in favor of the Company. This follows a separate decision on February 20, 2014, in which the Court also ruled in favor of the Company in a related case with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and granted our motion for summary judgment in full, denied the plaintiffs’ motion for summary judgment and terminated the case. The plaintiffs’ may appeal this decision.
