TAMPA, Fla., Aug. 7, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Jagged Peak, Inc. (OTC Pink:JGPK), a leading provider of enterprise-class e-commerce software solutions and supply chain services, today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 26, 2015.
Second Quarter Highlights:
- Total revenue for the 13-week period increased 26% to $17.2 million, as compared to $13.6 million for the same period last year.
- Net income for the 13-week period increased to $523.2 thousand, as compared to a net loss of $367.4 thousand for the same period last year.
Revenues increased $3,558,100, or 26%, to $17,182,900 for the 13-week period ended June 26, 2015, as compared to $13,624,800 for the 13-week period ended June 27, 2014. This increase is the result of higher e-commerce order processing volume and the new Florida warehouse becoming fully operational. Revenues from implementation of new client sites and on-going development for existing clients were consistent across these periods.
Cost of revenue, which consists primarily of labor, fulfillment operations and facilities costs, increased by $1,898,400, or 16%, to $13,613,300 for the 13-week period ended June 26, 2015, as compared to $11,714,900 for the 13-week period ended June 27, 2014. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue was 79% for the 13-week period ended June 26, 2015, as compared to 86% for the 13-week period ended June 27, 2014. This decrease is primarily related to improved management of fulfillment labor utilizing less full time employees in the new Florida warehouse which became fully operational late in 2014.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $425,300, or 18%, to $2,835,900 for the 13-week period ended June 26, 2015, as compared to $2,410,600 for the 13-week period ended June 27, 2014. This increase was primarily related to the accelerated hiring of experienced managers to support our current and expected growth and non-cash compensation related to stock awards.
Interest expense increased by $17,500 to $65,300 for the 13-week period ended June 26, 2015, as compared to $47,800 for the 13-week period ended June 27, 2014 due to increased working capital requirements to support revenue growth.
The Company realized income before income tax expense of $710,500 for the 13-week period ended June 26, 2015, as compared to a loss before income tax benefit of $504,800 for the 13-week period ended June 27, 2014.
Income tax expense was $187,300 for the 13-week period ended June 26, 2015 compared to an income tax benefit of $137,400 for the 13-week period ended June 27, 2014. Differences between the taxable income and the effective tax rate used for 2015 and 2014, as compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate, are primarily due to permanent differences and taxes on foreign operations. As of the quarter ended June 26, 2015 the Company has a remaining U.S. (federal and state) net operating loss carry forwards of $1,131,700, which will expire between 2031 and 2033. The Company also has a Canadian net operating loss carry forward of $2,207,000 which does not begin to expire until 2029. Management believes there will be sufficient future earnings to support the more than likely realization of deferred tax assets in excess of existing taxable temporary differences. The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near-term if estimates of future taxable income are reduced.
The Company realized net income of $523,200 for the 13-week period ended June 26, 2015, compared with net loss of $367,400 for the 13-week period ended June 27, 2014.
Other income and expense consists of foreign currency gain or losses on conversion of Canadian dollars from our Canadian subsidiary to U.S. dollars. Other comprehensive income and loss is the result of changes in the value of the swap agreement to obtain a fixed interest rate and foreign currency translation gain or losses on conversion of Canadian balances to U.S. dollars.
Basic income per share from operations for the 13-week period ended June 26, 2015 was $0.03 per weighted average share, compared with basic loss of $0.02 per weighted average share for the 13-week period ended June 27, 2014.

Adjusted EBITDA for the 26-week period ended June 26, 2015 was approximately $1,898,300 compared to approximately $181,700 for the 26-week period ended June 27, 2014.
