Second Quarter 2023 Financial Summary:
Year to Date Q2 2023 Financial Summary:
Barry Litwin, Chief Executive Officer, said, "We had a very productive second quarter as we continued to execute on our ACE strategy, made further investments in growth initiatives and completed the strategic acquisition of Indoff in late May. Total revenue benefited from the inclusion of Indoff, while organic performance reflects price deflation, and a continuation of the cautious purchasing behavior within our small and medium business customer base's manufacturing sector. Gross margin remained solid as we delivered modest improvement organically, offset by Indoff's lower margin profile. Given improvements in our online shopping experience, web growth expanded throughout the quarter. Customer acquisition and retention are healthy, and we ended the quarter with modest volume trend improvement."
"We remain focused on strengthening our business, driving operational excellence, and delivering an exceptional experience and value to our customers. We are making investments across our web and direct sales channels to enhance our competitive position and long-term growth profile. We believe we are well positioned to drive performance as customer sentiment improves. With strong cash flows and a solid balance sheet, we are confident in the resources we have to navigate current market conditions and execute on our organic and strategic growth opportunities."
At June 30, 2023, the Company had total working capital of $128.1 million, cash and cash equivalents of $44.9 million, excess availability under its credit facility of approximately $79.4 million and $40.3 million outstanding debt utilized to fund the purchase of Indoff. Operating cash flow provided by continuing operations in the quarter was $37.0 million. The Company's Board of Directors has declared a cash dividend of $0.20 per share to common stock shareholders of record at the close of business on August 14, 2023, payable on August 21, 2023.
