SHREWSBURY, NJ, July 29, 2010 — Wayside Technology Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: WSTG) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010. The results will be discussed in a conference call to be held on Friday, July 30, 2010 at 10:00 AM Eastern time. The dial-in telephone number is (866) 835 8907 and the pass code is “WSTG”.

 

This conference call will be available via live webcast — in listen-mode only — at www.earnings.com. A replay will also be available on the company’s website at www.waysidetechnology.com.

 

Net sales for the second quarter of 2010 increased 31% or $11.4 million to $48.4 million compared to $37.0 million for the same period in 2009. Total sales for the second quarter of 2010 for our Lifeboat segment were $35.8 million compared to $25.0 million in the second quarter of 2009, representing an increase of $10.8 million or 43%. Total sales for the second quarter of 2010 for our Programmer’s Paradise segment were $12.6 million compared to $12.0 million in the second quarter of 2009, representing a 5% increase.

 

Sales from our Lifeboat segment showed strong growth. The increase in net sales for the three and six months June 30, 2010  compared to 2009 was mainly a result of our continued focus on the expanding virtual infrastructure-centric business, the addition of several key product lines, and the strengthening of our account penetration.

 

“The second quarter of 2010 showed continued excellent growth,” said Simon F. Nynens, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We continue to strengthen our position in the software distribution market and sign on new vendors.”

 

Gross Profit for the second quarter of 2010 was $4.7 million compared to $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2009, a 15% increase. Total gross profit for our Lifeboat segment was $3.4 million compared to $2.5 million in the second quarter of 2009, representing a 32% increase. This increase in gross profit was due to aggressive sales volume growth within our Lifeboat segment. Total gross profit for our Programmer’s Paradise segment was $1.3 million compared to $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2009, representing a 14% decrease. This decrease was primarily due to competitive pricing pressure.

 

Total gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, for the second quarter of 2010 was 9.7%, compared to 11.0% in the second quarter of 2009.

 



 

Total selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the second quarter of 2010 were $3.2 million, compared to $2.9 million in the second quarter of 2009. This increase is mainly due to an increase in employee related expenses (salaries, commissions and bonus accruals and benefits) of $0.3 million.

 

Cash and marketable securities amount to $17.4 million, representing 70% of equity as of June 30, 2010. The company has no debt.

 

On July 27, 2010, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $.15 per share of its common stock payable August 19, 2010 to shareholders of record on August 12, 2010.
