Analyst Update: Financial Results and Partnerships

Reviewed by: Rohit Tuli, CFA®  

The U.S. stocks fell on Wednesday, weighed down by sharp decline in the energy stocks following further decline in the oil prices. Investors were also seen fleeing to the U.S. government bonds on Wednesday, sending the yield on 10-year bonds to their lowest level since May 2013, after Federal Reserve said that it will remain "patient" while deciding when to raise the interest rates as inflation remained below forecasts. The U.S. Fed's statement came after first policy-setting meeting of the year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.13% to close at 17,191.37, the S&P 500 lost 1.35% to close at 2,002.16, and the Nasdaq Composite declined 0.93% to end at 4,637.99. Meanwhile, European markets witnessed a choppy session on Wednesday as major indexes came under pressure amid continued slump in Greek stocks. In Asia, markets ended on a mixed note as investors remained cautious following weak cues from the overseas markets on the back of disappointing U.S. earnings and durable-goods orders data.

Monarch Casino & Resort, Inc. (Monarch) announced its Q3 2014 financial results. Net revenue of $48.6 million declined 0.8% YoY, as lower casino revenue at Monarch Black Hawk and at Atlantis, drove a 1.4% decline in total casino revenue. Net income for the quarter stood at $4.1 million or $0.24 per diluted share compared with $5.5 million or $0.32 per diluted share in Q3 2013.

Monro Muffler Brake, Inc.'s (Monro Muffler) sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 increased 7.8% YoY to a record $221.3 million. Operating income surged 21% YoY to $28.9 million, while net income for the quarter increased 19.6% YoY to a record $16.3 million.

Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. (Norwegian Cruise Line) announced a number of new partnerships with leaders in the fields of dining, beverage and entertainment to feature innovative branded experiences on its Norwegian Escape, the Company's largest ship, which is scheduled for sailing from her homeport of Miami in November 2015.

Nathan's Famous, Inc.'s (Nathan's Famous) revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 increased 22.4% YoY to c.$29 million. The bottom-line improved as well, as the Company reported net income of $3.9 million or diluted EPS of $0.84 compared with $2.6 million or $0.57 in Q2 FY 2014.

National American University Holdings, Inc.'s (National American University Holdings) second quarter fiscal 2015 net income increased 107.5% YoY to $2.8 million. The Company's total revenue for the quarter stood at $30.6 million, compared to $33.2 million in the corresponding prior-year period.
