EATONTOWN, NJ, July 27, 2017 – Wayside Technology Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: WSTG) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017.    The results will be discussed in a conference call to be held on Friday, July 28, 2017 at 10:00 a.m. EDT.  The dial-in telephone number is (844) 683-0552 and the pass code is “WSTG.”  This conference call will be webcast by NASDAQ OMX and can be accessed at Wayside Technology’s website at www.waysidetechnology.com/site/content/webcasts.  

We are pleased to report solid financial results. Our Lifeboat Distribution segment continued to deliver year over year sales growth, while our TechXtend division was down as compared to an exceptionally strong quarter last year. We see opportunities for growth in the remainder of this year.” said Simon F. Nynens, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.  “On a year to date basis, our earnings per share are up $0.04 or 7%.” 

 

Operating Results:

 

Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 decreased 2% to $103.0 million compared to $105.3 million for the same period in 2016 as growth in our Lifeboat Distribution segment was offset by a decline in TechXtend due to quarterly variability in enterprise account sales. Lifeboat Distribution segment net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 increased 7% to $95.7 million, compared to $89.7 million for the same period in 2016. TechXtend segment net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 decreased 53% to $7.3 million, compared to $15.6 million for the same period in 2016. The decrease was primarily due to a large enterprise sale of approximately $7.0 million recorded in the second quarter of 2016 which affects the comparability of results. Sales in our TechXtend segment may vary significantly from quarter to quarter based on the timing of IT spending decisions by our larger customers. Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 decreased 6% to $6.6 million compared to $7.0 million for the same period in 2016. Lifeboat Distribution segment gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 increased 1% to $5.6 million, compared to $5.5 million in the same period in 2016. TechXtend segment gross profit for the second quarter of 2017 decreased 34% to $1.0 million, compared to $1.5 million in 2016.

 

Gross profit margin (gross profit as a percentage of net sales) for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 decreased by 0.3 percentage points to 6.4%, compared to 6.7% for the same period in 2016. Lifeboat Distribution segment gross profit margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 decreased by 0.3 percentage points to


 

5.9%, compared to 6.2% for the same period last year. TechXtend segment gross profit margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 increased 3.8 percentage points to 13.1%, compared to 9.3% for the same period in 2016.

 

Total selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 increased 2% or $0.1 million over the same quarter last year to $4.8 million. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to increased employee related expenses to support our growth. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 4.7% in 2017 compared to 4.5% in 2016 as a result of the lower TechXtend sales.

 

Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 decreased 16% to $1.3 million, compared to $1.5 million during the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 decreased 12% to $0.30, compared to $0.34, for the same period in 2016. 

 

On July 25, 2017, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.17 per share of its common stock payable August 18, 2017 to shareholders of record on August 11, 2017.

 

For the quarter ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $0.6 million.
