“We executed well on our strategic initiatives during the third quarter, putting us on pace to finish the year with revenue growth and a significant increase in profitability,” said Murray Wright, President and Chief Executive Officer. “On the top line, sales were slightly down primarily due to the timing of orders in the carrier ecosystem. We expect this decline will be more than offset by increased sales in the fourth quarter, as the pipeline for this market is very strong. Outside of the carrier market, sales were up in the government, value-added reseller and private system operator markets. Our bottom-line growth was a direct result of improved operating leverage due to our successful productivity enhancements, as well as a lower effective tax rate resulting from the new tax law.
“As we approach the finish of the 2018 fiscal year, we are confident we will continue to execute our strategic plan,” Wright continued. “We are focused on balancing the implementation of our go-to-market strategy with improved operating efficiency. Our emphasis on improving the customer experience is generating increased opportunities. We are leveraging a strong value proposition, and we expect double-digit, year-over-year revenue growth in our fourth quarter. Unlike the previous two fourth quarters, we expect positive bottom-line earnings.”
Third-Quarter Fiscal 2018 Financial Results
For the fiscal 2018 third quarter, revenues totaled $146.3 million, compared with $147.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2017. Increases in sales to the Company’s government, value-added reseller and private system operator markets were offset by year-over-year declines in sales to the public carrier and retail markets.
Gross profit was $29.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2018, compared with $30.0 million for the same quarter of fiscal 2017. The slight decline in third quarter gross profit year over year was primarily the result of the decline in total sales. Gross margin was 20.2% of revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2018, compared with 20.4% for last year’s third quarter.
As a result of the Company’s ongoing expense control initiatives and productivity enhancements, selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased by $0.4 million to $27.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2018, from $27.9 million in the same quarter of the prior year.
Primarily as a result of the new tax law, the Company’s provision for income taxes declined from $0.8 million in last year’s third quarter to $0.5 million in this year’s third quarter.
Net income and earnings per share (EPS) were $1.6 million and $0.19, respectively, for the third quarter of fiscal 2018, compared with net income and EPS of $1.2 million and $0.15, respectively, for the prior-year third quarter.
Year to date, net income and earnings per share were $4.0 million and $0.48, respectively, compared to $2.3 million and $0.28 in the same period of fiscal 2017. Revenue and gross profit increased 5% and 3%, respectively, over the same period.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flows
As of December 24, 2017, the outstanding balance on the Company’s line of credit was $5.9 million. Cash flow used in operations was $7.3 million during the first nine months of the 2018 fiscal year, primarily due to increases in inventory and accounts receivable. Inventory increased by $2.5 million during the first nine months of the fiscal year to $66.5 million as of December 24, 2017. Trade accounts receivable increased $20.3 million in the first nine months of the year to $85.0 million. During the third quarter, inventory and trade accounts receivable both decreased sequentially, resulting in cash provided by operations for the quarter of $9.5 million. The Company expects inventory and the balance on its line of credit to grow during the fourth quarter as it continues to implement new strategic programs with significant carrier customers while also building inventory for the spring building season.
Cash Dividend
The Company’s Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per common share payable on February 28, 2018 to common stockholders of record on February 14, 2018. Any future declaration of dividends, and the establishment of record and payment dates, is subject to future determinations of the Board of Directors.
Business Outlook
The Company currently anticipates double-digit year-over-year revenue growth and to be profitable in its fiscal 2018 fourth quarter.
Forecasting future results or trends is inherently difficult for any business, and actual results or trends may differ materially from those forecasted. The nature of the business is that TESSCO typically ships products within several days after booking orders. The lack of an order backlog makes it even more difficult to forecast future results. The Business Outlook published in this press release reflects only the company’s current best estimate and it assumes no obligation to update the information contained in this press release, including the Business Outlook, at any time.

Non-GAAP Information
EBITDA and EBITDA per diluted share are measures used by management to evaluate the Company’s ongoing operations, and to provide a general indicator of the Company's operating cash flow (in conjunction with a cash flow statement which also includes among other items, changes in working capital and the effect of non-cash charges). EBITDA is defined as income from operations, plus interest expense, net of interest income, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA per diluted share is defined as EBITDA divided by Tessco’s diluted weighted average shares outstanding.
Management believes EBITDA and EBITDA per share are useful to investors because they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s presentation of these Non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Neither EBITDA nor EBITDA per diluted share is a recognized term under GAAP, and EBITDA does not purport to be an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Additionally, neither EBITDA nor EBITDA per diluted share is intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management's discretionary use, as certain cash requirements, such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements, are not reflected.
A reconciliation of Non-GAAP to GAAP results is included as an exhibit to this release.
