CEO Comments
Steve Rade, CEO stated, our reduction in sales was reflective of
the lack of new phone releases combined with a slower rate of
consumers upgrading their handsets and an overall very competitive
market.
The company incurred extra charges in the September quarter
related to unforeseen markdowns of close to $300,000 relating
principally to the write down of a good portion of our apple iPhone
5 accessories. This was a result of Apple's decision to discontinue
the production of the iPhone 5 handsets and non-compatibility
issues with the new iPhone 5s and 5c models.
We were able to reduce our operating expenses in response to the
sales drop for the Sept quarter as a result of the Company
instituting a right sizing and cost reduction program. The full
benefit of these reduction programs will be realized over the next
few quarters.
We are positioning ourselves for a new round of sales growth
through the further development and marketing of our value added
services, such as our successful vendor managed inventory program
and website technology which targets larger online retailers and
the hiring of a Retail Channel Sales Manager to lead our initiative
into these markets.
