Results of Operations
Revenues
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2010 were $4.1 million as compared to $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase of $0.95 million, or 30.1%, was primarily due to increased sales to new and existing customers through the expansion of the Company's advertising network. During the first quarter, China New Media acquired more desirable locations in Dalian, established operations in Shanghai, and created new advertising media platforms, all of which contributed to the increase in sales.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $2.4 million as compared to $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase of $0.38 million, or 20.9%, was primarily due to the corresponding increase in sales. Costs of sales for the three-month period were $1.8 million as compared to $1.2 million for the same period a year ago. The Company's gross margin was 57.9% and 62.3%, for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The decline in gross margin was largely attributable to the one-time billboard maintenance costs incurred by our newly established Shanghai subsidiary.
Income from Operations
Operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2010 amounted to $1.6 million, an increase of $0.22 million, or 16.5%, as compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Operating expenses for the three-month period grew 31.6% to $0.77 million as compared to $0.58 million for the same period a year ago, which is consistent with the Company's revenue growth.
Net Income
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $1.1 million as compared to $0.91 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, due to the reasons set forth above. Earnings per basic and diluted share were $0.04 for the quarter, compared with basic and diluted EPS of $0.03 for the same period a year ago.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2010, the Company's current assets were $7.6 million and current liabilities were $12.9 million. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.8 million as of September 30, 2010, compared to $1.7 million as of September 30, 2009. The Company's shareholders' equity at September 30, 2010 was $15.3 million.
