Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Revenue: Decreased slightly by less than 1% ($0.6 million). The decline was driven by the timing of product deliveries due to customer construction delays and the absence of large industrial jobs completed in Fiscal 2023. This was partially offset by price increases and revenue from acquisitions.
• Net Income: Decreased by 42% ($4.1 million). The primary driver was a 7% increase in Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A) expenses ($6.4 million increase), attributed to operating expenses of acquired businesses, salary increases, technology costs, and accelerated stock compensation vesting.
• Gross Margin: Improved by 50 basis points to 29.8%, driven by favorable product/customer mix and solution selling initiatives, despite a 30 basis point drag from longer-term federal government contracts.
• Balance Sheet: Total assets decreased from $253.8 million to $230.7 million. Total liabilities decreased from $122.9 million to $94.1 million, primarily due to significant debt repayments and lower accounts payable.
• Cash Flow: Operating cash flow surged to $32.7 million from $0.9 million, largely due to improved collections (decrease in accounts receivable) and inventory reduction. Financing activities used $27.2 million, primarily for debt repayments and a special cash dividend.
