LAS VEGAS, Nov. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Gaming Partners International Corporation (NASDAQ: GPIC), a leading worldwide provider of casino currency and table gaming equipment, announced financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2013.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110512/LA99804LOGO)
During the third quarter ended September 30, 2013, the Company posted a net income of $83,000, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $1.3 million, or $0.16 per basic share and $0.15 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2012. During the first nine months of 2013, the Company posted net income of $0.6 million, or $0.07 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $4.3 million, or $0.53 per basic and diluted share, for the first nine months of 2012. The decrease in earnings for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013 was caused by lower casino currency sales and higher selling, administrative, and research and development expenses.
During the third quarter of 2013, the Company had revenues of $13.5 million, compared to revenues of $16.9 million in the third quarter of 2012. The primary reason for the decrease in revenue was a decrease in casino currency sales in the Asia-Pacific region.
During the first nine months of 2013, the Company posted revenues of $42.4 million compared to revenues of $45.4 million in the first nine months of 2012. Gross profit for the first nine months of 2013 was $13.1 million, or 31% of revenues, compared to $15.6 million, or 34% of revenues, in the same period of the prior year. The primary reason for the decrease in revenue in the first nine months of 2013, compared to the first nine months of 2012, was fewer casino openings in 2013 compared to 2012.
Our gross profit decrease in the first nine months of 2013, compared with the first nine months of 2012, is primarily related to: (1) a shift in our mix of revenues from our higher-margin casino currency products toward lower-margin products such as cards; and (2) a large imbalance in product demand in the first quarter of 2013, which significantly affected the utilization of our production facilities, resulting in one production facility incurring significant overtime and the other to have low utilization rates.
The Company ended the third quarter with $19.3 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and no debt. During the third quarter of 2013, the Company purchased 15,869 shares of its common stock under the current repurchase authorization at a cost of $127,517. As permitted by the Plan, on August 5, 2013, the Board of Directors elected to terminate the Plan effective August 12, 2013.
"Our results for both the quarter and the nine months are disappointing," commented Greg Gronau, GPIC President and Chief Executive Officer. "While the smaller number of casino openings has certainly hurt, efforts to better balance production, develop and get regulatory approval for new product offerings have not progressed as quickly as we anticipated. On the positive side, we have increased revenues from sales of RFID solutions and have increased market share in cards and other consumables, a source of recurring revenue not contingent on new casino openings."
