Fiscal 2024 Second Quarter Financial Results
Total revenues, net were $13.8 million for the fiscal 2024 second quarter, compared with $14.2 million for the prior-year quarter. The decrease mainly was due to competition from two newly opened Asian supermarkets near the Company's store in San Gabriel as well as reduction in online purchases as a result of customers returning to pre-pandemic shopping patterns and habits. Additionally, the Company generated slightly lower sales from perishable goods, which include meat, seafood, vegetables and fruit. Perishables revenues were $7.5 million for the fiscal 2024 second quarter, versus $7.9 million last year. Revenues for non-perishable goods, which include grocery, liquor, cigarettes, lottery, newspaper, reusable bags, non-food, and health products, of $6.3 million, were similar to the same period last year.
Total cost of revenues, which includes rental expense, depreciation, the direct costs of purchased merchandise, shrinkage costs, store supplies, and inbound shipping costs, decreased 4.0 percent to $10.6 million for the fiscal 2024 second quarter, compared with $11.1 million for the same period last year.
Gross profit for the fiscal 2024 second quarter was $3.1 million, up slightly from the same period last year. Gross margin improved 90 basis points to 22.7 percent, up from 21.8 percent for the fiscal 2023 second quarter.
Operating income was $254,000 for the fiscal 2024 second quarter, compared with $649,000 for the fiscal 2023 second quarter. The reduction was primarily due to higher selling expenses related to an increase in payroll and utility costs.
