MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--WSI Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: WSCI) today reported sales for its fiscal 2014 third quarter ending May 25, 2014 of $10,702,000 versus the prior year amount of $9,169,000 or a increase of 17% over the prior year quarter. Year-to-date sales for the nine months ended May 25, 2014 totaled $31,385,000, an increase of 26% versus $24,931,000 in the prior year.
The Company also reported net income of $321,000 or $.11 per diluted share for the fiscal 2014 third quarter compared to $106,000 or $.04 per diluted share in the prior year third quarter or an increase of 203%. Year-to-date income was $924,000 or $.31 per diluted share versus $593,000 or $.20 per diluted share in the prior year or an increase of 56%.
Benjamin Rashleger, president and chief executive officer, commented: “Our fiscal 2014 third quarter results have continued our recent trend of showing year-over-year growth. This is the third consecutive quarter where we achieved sales increases over the prior year quarter. While we are experiencing improved activity in most segments of our business, the largest contributor to our sales growth has continued to come from our powersports business – which was up 26% over the prior year third quarter and is up 50% year-to-date over the prior year. We successfully launched a major new program in the powersports business this year, and we have continued to develop new product lines as models change year over year.” Rashleger continued: “Our overall energy business was down versus the prior year third quarter, however, in our oil and gas fracking segment we experienced our third consecutive quarter of sales increases. In addition, we previously announced orders from three new customers in our energy business which generated some revenues in our third quarter, and we expect to see additional sales as these programs roll out in our fiscal 2014 fourth quarter.” Rashleger concluded: “We are pleased with our results, and our optimism for our future business and potential remains high.”
The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of $.04 per share. The dividend will be payable July 17, 2014 to holders of record on July 3, 2014.
