    Third Quarter Fiscal 2024 Results

    For the third quarter ended March 31, 2024, the Company reported revenue of $48.2 million, a 10.2% decline over the third quarter of fiscal 2023. Excluding the negative impact of foreign currency fluctuations, third quarter revenue was down 8.7%. Revenue in the Americas region for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 decreased 5.9%, including a 6.7% decrease in the United States. Revenue in the Asia/Pacific & Europe region decreased 22.4% and was negatively impacted by foreign currency fluctuations. On a constant currency basis, revenue in Asia/Pacific & Europe decreased approximately 16.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

    Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was $38.1 million, or 78.9% of revenue, compared to $43.1 million, or 80.2% of revenue, for the same period in fiscal 2023. The decline in gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue was primarily driven by a shift in product mix, changes in raw material and manufacturing related costs, shipping to customer expenses, and warehouse fulfillment expenses during the current period.

    Commissions and incentives expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was $19.7 million, or 40.9% of revenue, compared to $23.8 million, or 44.3% of revenue, for the same period in fiscal 2023. The decrease in commissions and incentives expenses as a percentage of revenue compared to the prior year periods is due to changes in sales mix, timing and magnitude of our various promotional and incentive programs, and decreases in commission expenses as a result of our Evolve Compensation Plan.

    Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was $16.4 million, or 34.0% of revenue, compared to $17.7 million, or 33.0% of revenue, for the same period in fiscal 2023. Adjusted for nonrecurring expenses, which are detailed in the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation tables included at the end of this press release, adjusted non-GAAP SG&A expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were $15.0 million, or 31.0% of revenue, compared to adjusted non-GAAP SG&A expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 of $17.7 million, or 32.9% of revenue.

    Operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was $1.9 million compared to operating income of $1.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2023. Accounting for non-GAAP adjustments noted previously, adjusted non-GAAP operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was $3.4 million compared to adjusted non-GAAP operating loss of $1.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2023.

    Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was $1.7 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.0 million, or $0.08 per diluted share in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. Accounting for the non-GAAP adjustments noted previously, net of tax, adjusted non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was $2.8 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared to adjusted non-GAAP income of $1.0 million, or $0.08 per diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2023.

    Adjusted EBITDA was $5.1 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2024, versus $3.3 million for the comparable period in fiscal 2023.

    Balance Sheet & Liquidity

    The Company generated $9.6 million of cash from operations during the first nine months of fiscal 2024 compared to $3.1 million in the same period in fiscal 2023. Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2024 were $17.4 million, compared to $21.6 million at June 30, 2023, and there was no debt outstanding.

    Share Repurchase

    During the third quarter, the Company repurchased 0.3 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1.9 million. Through the first nine months of fiscal 2024, 0.7 million shares have been repurchased for an aggregate price of $4.6 million. There was approximately $22.3 million remaining under the current repurchase program authorization as of March 31, 2024.

    Dividend Announcement

    Today the Company announced the declaration of a cash dividend of $0.04 per common share. The dividend will be paid on June 14, 2024 to all stockholders of record at the close of business on May 31, 2024.

    Fiscal Year 2024 Guidance

    The Company expects to generate revenue in the range of $202 million to $205 million in fiscal year 2024, a change from the previous range of $207 million to $213 million, and no change to adjusted EBITDA of $16 million to $18 million, or adjusted earnings per share in the range of $0.57 to $0.67. The Company expects a full year tax rate of approximately 22% to 24%. This guidance reflects the current trends in the business. The Company's guidance for adjusted non-GAAP EBITDA and adjusted non-GAAP earnings per diluted share excludes any non-operating or non-recurring expenses that may materialize during fiscal 2024. The Company is not providing guidance for GAAP earnings per diluted share for fiscal 2024 due to the potential occurrence of one or more non-operating, one-time expenses, which the Company does not believe it can reliably predict.

The declaration and/or payment of a dividend during any quarter provides no assurance as to future dividends, and the timing and amount of future dividends, if any, could vary significantly in comparison both to past dividends and to current expectations. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make regarding executing against and the benefits of our key initiatives, future growth, including geographic and product expansion, the impact of COVID-19 on our business, expected financial performance, and expected dividend payments in future quarters. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance and the Company's actual results could differ materially from those contained in such statements. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company's current expectations and beliefs concerning future events affecting the Company and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause the Company's actual results or outcomes to be materially different from those anticipated and discussed herein.

    About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    We define Non-GAAP EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock compensation expense, other income, net, and certain other adjustments. Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We define Non-GAAP Net Income as GAAP net income less certain tax adjusted non-recurring one-time expenses incurred during the period and Non-GAAP Earnings per Share as Non-GAAP Net Income divided by weighted-average shares outstanding.

    We are presenting Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share because management believes that they provide additional ways to view our operations when considered with both our GAAP results and the reconciliation to net income, which we believe provides a more complete understanding of our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share are presented solely as supplemental disclosure because: (i) we believe these measures are a useful tool for investors to assess the operating performance of the business without the effect of these items; (ii) we believe that investors will find this data useful in assessing shareholder value; and (iii) we use Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share internally as benchmarks to evaluate our operating performance or compare our performance to that of our competitors. The use of Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings per Share has limitations and you should not consider these measures in isolation from or as an alternative to the relevant GAAP measure of net income prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as a measure of profitability or liquidity.

    The tables set forth below present reconciliations of Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings per Share, which are non-GAAP financial measures to Net Income and Earnings per Share, our most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.
