Natural Alternatives International, Inc. Announces Fiscal 2017 Q2 Results
CARLSBAD, Calif., Feb. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Natural Alternatives International, Inc. ("NAI") (Nasdaq: NAII), a leading formulator, manufacturer and marketer of customized nutritional supplements, today announced net income of $2.5 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, on net sales of $30.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2016.
Net sales during the three months ended December 31, 2016 increased $3.6 million, or 13.6%, from $26.9 million recorded in the comparable prior year period. For the quarter ended December 31, 2016, private label contract manufacturing sales increased $2.2 million, or 10.4%, from the comparable quarter last year. Our second quarter fiscal 2017 contract manufacturing sales were favorably impacted due to timing and shipment of orders and new product launches. CarnoSyn® beta-alanine royalty, licensing and raw material sales revenue increased 26.5% to $6.7 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2017 as compared to $5.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2016. The increase in CarnoSyn® beta-alanine revenue was primarily due to the addition of new customers and increased material shipments to existing customers.
Net sales during the six months ended December 31, 2016 increased $16.1 million, or 33.3%, from $48.5 million recorded in the comparable prior year period. For the six months ended December 31, 2016, private label contract manufacturing sales increased $13.4 million, or 35.3%, from the comparable quarter last year. CarnoSyn® beta-alanine royalty, licensing and raw material sales revenue increased 26.1% to $13.4 million during the first half of fiscal 2017 as compared to $10.6 million for the comparable prior year period. The increase in CarnoSyn® beta-alanine revenue was primarily due to the addition of new customers and increased material shipments to existing customers.
On an annualized basis, we now expect our consolidated fiscal 2017 revenue growth percentage to be approximately 5% to 10% due to reductions in contract manufacturing orders and customer forecasts from Australia, Asia, and Europe. We expect a majority of this decline to occur in our third fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2017 and to a lesser extent in our fourth fiscal quarter. We believe this international revenue decline will be temporary in nature and will reverse as we enter fiscal 2018 beginning July 1, 2017. With respect to our CarnoSyn® beta-alanine business, we expect our current sales growth rate to continue for the balance of this fiscal year as we continue to expand our research, our patent estate and our client base.
Net income for the first six months of fiscal 2017 was $5.0 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, compared to net income of $3.1 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, in the comparable prior year period. This increase was primarily attributable to increased sales related to our private label contract manufacturing segment and increased product margin from CarnoSyn® beta-alanine sales due to increased sales and lower supply chain costs, partially offset by increased legal costs associated with our efforts to enforce compliance with our patents related to instant release CarnoSyn® and to protect our trade name in the market place against parties who are using it without our consent.
As of December 31, 2016, NAI had cash of $21.4 million and working capital of $40.8 million compared to $19.7 million and $36.7 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2016. As of December 31, 2016, we had $10.0 million available under our line of credit agreements.
Mark A. Le Doux, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer stated, "I am pleased with the performance of the company for the first half of this fiscal year. While several challenges from the contract manufacturing side of the business exist through the balance of this year, I remain confident our continued investment in research, production efficiencies, sales initiatives and patent prosecution should help us achieve double digit growth in the approaching fiscal year in all our business segments."
