Q3 2014 Financial Summary
Net revenues for the third quarter of 2014 totaled $23.8 million, up 22% from $19.5 million in the same year-ago quarter. Service and other revenue totaled $4.2 million, up 31% from the same year-ago quarter. The improvements were primarily due to the increase in private-pay business for van sales, as well as the contribution of Auto Mobility Sales which was acquired last September. The increase in service and other revenue is also due to the contribution of custom configuration and sale of nearly 30 taxis.

Gross profit was $6.3 million or 26.5% of total net revenues, compared to $4.7 million or 24.2% of total net revenues in the same year-ago quarter. The gross margin increase is due to an increase in service revenue which is a higher margin segment.

Net income totaled a record $802,000, as compared to net income of $417,000 in the same year-ago quarter.

First Nine Months of 2014 Financial Summary
Net revenues for the first nine months of 2014 totaled a record $68.4 million, up 29% from $53.0 million in the first nine months of 2013. Service and other revenue totaled $12.0 million, up 26% from the same year-ago period.

Gross profit was a record $16.6 million or 24.3% of total net revenues, compared to $12.3 million or 23.3% of total net revenues in the same year-ago period. The gross margin improvement is due to the greater buying power and utilization of capacity in service.

Net income totaled a record $1.3 million, as compared to net income of $0.5 million in the same year-ago period.

Management Commentary
“Our third quarter record profitability reflects the increasing success of our brands and stores across the East Coast, as well as the effective execution of our growth plan by our management team,” said Hal Compton, CEO of HASCO Medical. “To support continued growth, we are expanding our footprint on the East Coast. This includes the opening of a new wheelchair accessible van dealership to service customers in the Baltimore metropolitan area, which marks our 20th location.

“With the support of major brands like BraunAbility and VMI, we plan to open another dealership in the current quarter that will support our continued organic growth. We will remain opportunistic for additional stores in the highly fragmented, large and thriving vehicular mobility market.

“We are in the process of approving store demos and marketing materials designed to provide more interactivity and up-sell opportunities, which we expect to roll out in the current quarter. In addition, we are testing new mobility products from Pride Mobility and Harmar in two of our stores, and expect to launch the roll out to all of our stores in the first quarter of 2015.

“We see our expanding customer base driving further growth in recurring, high-margin service revenue, and we remain on track for a record topline and continued growth in profitability for the year.”
