SAN MARCOS, Calif., April 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Natural Alternatives International, Inc. ("NAI") (Nasdaq: NAII), a leading formulator, manufacturer and marketer of customized nutritional supplements, today announced revenue of $23.8 million and net income of $369,000 or $0.05 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2007.
Revenue of $23.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 represented an increase of $404,000 from the same quarter last year. The increase was primarily due to a $923,000, or 5%, increase in private label contract manufacturing sales partially offset by a $519,000, or 11%, decrease in branded products sales.
Net income in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 decreased to $369,000 or $0.05 per diluted share from $621,000 or $0.09 per diluted share in the comparable quarter last year. Income from operations in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 decreased to $596,000 from $1.1 million in the comparable quarter last year.
Cash flows from operating activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2007 were $13.4 million. As of March 31, 2007, NAI had cash and working capital of $3.8 million and $14.9 million, respectively, compared to $2.2 million and $13.2 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2006. As of March 31, 2007, we had $6.4 million available under our working capital line of credit.
President Randell Weaver stated, "We are pleased with our strong balance sheet and continued profitability. During the third quarter we experienced a decrease in branded products revenue compared to the year ago quarter primarily due to lower sales of the Dr. Cherry Pathway to Healing(R) product line. This decrease, along with a shift in mix from our higher margin branded products sales to lower margin contract manufacturing sales, negatively impacted our operating income. As of April 2007, Dr. Cherry is no longer airing his weekly television program, which served as the primary customer acquisition vehicle in marketing the Pathway to Healing(R) product line. We have been working with Dr. Cherry to finalize marketing plans to replace the weekly television program."
Mr. Weaver added, "In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, we enjoyed a record quarter for revenue. During that quarter, we shipped significant initial orders to a new customer and are now shipping additional orders to that customer. We do not expect to repeat last year's record fourth quarter, and we anticipate revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 will be in line with revenue in the just completed third quarter."
