Key points
- Net sales were $3,094,078, down $976,700 or 24.0% from $4,070,778 a year earlier, with management citing a significant Education customer custom order from the prior year that did not recur.
- Net loss was $234,168 versus net income of $243,729 in the prior-year quarter; basic and diluted loss per share was $0.02 compared with earnings of $0.03.
- Gross margin declined 50 basis points to 39.5% from 40.0%, as fixed manufacturing overhead absorption on lower sales offset benefits from direct-to-consumer sales and a $76,000 tariff refund.
- Direct-to-consumer sales represented approximately 37% of total turnover, per management.
