Command Reports Increased Second Quarter Revenues and Earnings

Command Security Corporation (NYSE MKT: MOC) today reported financial results for its second fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2013.

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2013, were $40,147,092, compared with $38,164,921 in the same period of the prior year, an increase of 5.2%. Operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2013, increased 86% to $1,290,052, compared with $691,936 in the same period of the prior year. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2013, increased 92% to $633,221, or $0.07 per basic and diluted share, compared with $329,277, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share in the same period of the prior year.

Revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2013, were $78,108,587, compared with $73,806,600 in the same period of the prior year, an increase of 5.8%. Operating income for the six months ended September 30, 2013, increased 27% to $1,528,895, compared with $1,205,719 in the same period of the prior year. Net income for the six months ended September 30, 2013, increased 19% to $666,454, or $0.07 per basic and diluted share, compared with $560,546, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share in the same period of the prior year.

The increase in revenues for three and six months ended September 30, 2013, compared with the corresponding periods of the prior year was due primarily to the following:

  • Increased revenues associated with an expansion of services provided under a contract with a major transportation company;
  • Addition of new revenues from New York based medical care facilities; and,
  • Continued expansion of aviation related security services at east and west coast airports.

The increase in operating income and net income for the three and six months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year was due primarily to the increases in revenues and the absence of $750,000 of restructuring and relocation costs incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2012, in connection with the Company's consolidation of its corporate headquarters personnel and functions to Herndon, VA. This increase in operating income and net income was partially offset by costs associated with ongoing legal issues including continuing litigation with a non-certified union in California. The non-certified union is seeking to be re-recognized by a work group that had previously voted to withdraw recognition.

Craig P. Coy, Chief Executive Officer of Command Security, stated, “The second quarter was an exciting and busy time for the company. The addition of Mark Sullivan, former Director of the United States Secret Service, has added tremendous value and experience to our Board. Our initiatives to update and improve our operating systems continue at full pace. The recent award of the General Services Administration (GSA) contract which enables the Company to respond to requests for proposals (RFP) and be awarded new business directly with U.S. Federal Government agencies was a major accomplishment toward achieving one of our strategic objectives. New business awards demonstrate the quality of our operations team and the importance of our invigorated sales team. We recognize the on-going market challenges and are working to meet them with continued process improvements and strengthened management.”
