EnviroStar, Inc. Reports First Quarter Results
Company Announces Record Backlog and Special Dividend
Miami, FL – November 13, 2015 – EnviroStar, Inc. (NYSE MKT: EVI) today reported revenue and earnings for the three-month period ended September 30, 2015.
Revenue for the first three months of fiscal 2016 decreased by 31.3% to $6,237,200 from $9,083,694 for the same period of fiscal 2015. Net earnings for the first three months of fiscal 2016 decreased by 66.2% to $157,032, or $.02 per share, compared to net earnings of $463,961, or $.07 per share, for the same period of fiscal 2015. A significant contributor to the decline in revenue and earnings was a customer’s construction setback, which caused a delay in the shipment of the customer’s large order. The customer’s order, however, was shipped in October 2015 and, accordingly, will contribute to our results for the second quarter of fiscal 2016.
The Company also announced that the Board of Directors declared a $.20 per share special dividend, payable on December 18, 2015 to stockholders of record on December 4, 2015.
Henry M. Nahmad, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of EnviroStar stated, “Due to the nature of our business, operating performance for interim periods is not necessarily indicative of expected performance for a full fiscal year. While revenue and earnings were lower during the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the value of new incoming orders increased significantly, resulting in a record backlog scheduled for shipment during fiscal 2016. Additionally, we are continuing our pursuit of acquisition opportunities and other strategic transactions through the execution of our buy-and-build strategy, which we believe will lead to growth in revenue and profitability over the long term.”
