Jewett-Cameron Announces 1st Quarter Financial Results

.

PR Newswire
Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd.
January 14, 2016 4:20 PM


NORTH PLAINS, Ore., Jan. 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. (JCTCF) today reported financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 ended November 30, 2015.

Sales were $11.94 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to sales of $7.98 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Income from operations for the quarter was $885,204 compared to $529,899 in the year-ago quarter. Net income was $532,245, or $0.21 per share, for the current quarter compared to net income of $327,787, or $0.12 per share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

"The increase in sales for the quarter was due to our efforts to expand our customer base to new smaller and mid-sized customers, as well as the continued acceptance of our new products introduced during fiscal 2015," said CEO Don Boone. "The new products have been particularly well-received by our established customer base, which has led to sales increases with our largest customers."

As of November 30, the Company's cash position was $4.36 million, and currently there is no borrowing against its $3.0 million line of credit. The Company has historically utilized its cash position by implementing share repurchase programs as an effective method of enhancing shareholder value. The Company's most recent share repurchase plan was terminated on July 17, 2015. The Board of Directors will consider implementing new share repurchase plans in the future as an effective use of the Company's cash position.

Jewett-Cameron Announces Fiscal 2015 Financial Results

.PR Newswire
Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd.
November 6, 2015 4:20 PM

NORTH PLAINS, Ore., Nov. 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. (JCTCF) today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended August 31, 2015.

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2015 Jewett-Cameron reported net income of $1,773,971, or $0.69 per share, on sales of $42.24 million, compared to net income of $1,858,453, or $0.63 per diluted share, on sales of $42.34 million, reported for fiscal 2014.

Sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 totaled $11.5 million compared to sales of $9.3 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014. Net income was $701,524, or $0.27 per diluted share, compared to net income of $352,147, or $0.12 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014.

"The extended winter weather across much of the US in 2015 slowed the buying of lawn and garden products and adversely affected our results. The West Coast port slowdowns also delayed the delivery of our products from manufacturers and resulted in sales order delays and higher freight costs" said CEO Don Boone. "However, we launched several new products beginning in the 3rd quarter which were well received by the marketplace, particularly by our established customer base".

As of August 31, 2015, the Company's cash position was $4.4 million, and currently there is no borrowing against its $3.0 million line of credit. During fiscal 2015, the Company repurchased and cancelled a total of 227,798 common shares at a total cost of $2,448,542, which represents an average price of $10.75. The Company's most recent share repurchase plan was terminated by the Board of Directors on July 17, 2015. The Board of Directors will consider implementing new share repurchase plans in the future as an effective use of the Company's cash position.

July 20, 2015 4:35 PM

NORTH PLAINS, Ore., July 20, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. (JCTCF) today reported financial results for the third quarter and nine month periods of fiscal 2015 ended May 31, 2015.

Sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 totaled $13.3 million compared to sales of $15.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2014. Income from operations was $779,340 compared to $1,552,537 for the third quarter ended May 31, 2014. Net income after other items and income taxes for the current quarter was $461,100, or $0.18 per share, compared to net income of $936,329, or $0.33 per share, in the year-ago quarter.

For the nine months ended May 31, 2015, Jewett-Cameron reported sales of $30.7 million compared to sales of $33.1 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2014. Net income was $1,072,447, or $0.41 per share, compared to net income of $1,506,306, or $0.50 per share, in the first nine months of fiscal 2014.

"The extended winter weather and West Coast port slowdowns which adversely affected our results in the second quarter continued in the third quarter," said CEO Don Boone. "These conditions negatively impacted our revenues and margins. However, we launched several new products during the quarter which were well received by the marketplace, particularly by our established customer base."

As of May 31, 2015, the Company's cash position was $1.8 million, and there was no borrowing against its $3.0 million line of credit. The Company has historically utilized its cash position by implementing share repurchase programs as an effective method of enhancing shareholder value. On February 17, 2015, the Company implemented a new share repurchase plan to purchase for cancellation up to 300,000 common shares under Rule 10b5-1 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2015 ended May 31, 2015, the Company repurchased and cancelled 89,051 common shares at a total cost of $1,101,574 which represents an average price of $12.31 per share. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, the Company re-purchased and is in the process of cancelling a total of 4,778 common shares. The total cost was $54,491 at an average share price of $11.40 per share. Effective July 17, 2015, the Board of Directors terminated the current 10b5-1 share re-purchase plan. The Board of Directors will consider implementing new share repurchase plans in the future as an effective use of the Company's cash position.

Jewett-Cameron Announces 2nd Quarter Financial Results
PR Newswire Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd.
16 hours ago
????
NORTH PLAINS, Ore., April 13, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. (JCTCF) today reported financial results for the second quarter and six month periods of fiscal 2015 ended February 28, 2015.

Sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 totaled $9.5 million compared to sales of $9.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2014. Income from operations was $466,704 compared to income of $408,818 for the quarter ended February 28, 2014. Net income was $283,560, or $0.11 per share, compared to net income of $237,398, or $0.08 per share, in the year-ago quarter.

For the six months ended February 28, 2015, sales totaled $17.5 million compared to sales of $17.7 million for the six months ended February 28, 2014. Net income was $611,347, or $0.23 per share, compared to net income of $569,977, or $0.18 per share, in the first six months of fiscal 2014.

"During the second quarter, we experienced delays in receiving certain products from our suppliers due to the West Coast port slowdowns", said CEO Don Boone. "These delays resulted in higher freight costs and, combined with the prolonged winter weather across much of the country, delayed many shipments to our customers."

These delays also resulted in higher inventory levels and a lower cash balance at the end of the period. As of February 28, 2015, the Company's cash position was $12 thousand, and there was $875 thousand borrowed against its $1.0 million line of credit. Subsequent to the end of the period, the Company increased the size of its line of credit to $3.0 million.

On February 17, 2015, the Company implemented a new share repurchase plan to purchase for cancellation up to 300,000 common shares under Rule 10b5-1 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This amount represents approximately 11.6% of the 2,585,661 common shares outstanding. During the second quarter, no common shares were repurchased. Subsequent to the end of the period, during the month of March 2015, the Company repurchased 1,103 common shares under the Plan. The total cost was $11,406 at an average share price of $10.34 per share. The Plan will remain in place until August 14, 2015 but may be limited or terminated at any time without prior notice.

Jewett-Cameron Announces 2nd Quarter Financial Results
PR Newswire Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd.
19 hours ago
NORTH PLAINS, Ore., April 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. (JCTCF) today reported financial results for the second quarter and six month periods of fiscal 2014 ended February 28, 2014.

Sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 totaled $9.7 million compared to sales of $14.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Income from operations was $408,818 compared to income of $979,059 for the quarter ended February 28, 2013. Second quarter 2013 income included the one-time gain of $353,852 related to the sale of property. Net income after other items and income taxes for the current quarter was $237,398, or $0.08 per share, compared to net income of $790,631, or $0.25 per share, in the year-ago quarter.

For the six months ended February 28, 2014, Jewett-Cameron reported sales of $17.7 million compared to sales of $23.5 million for the six months ended February 28, 2013. Net income was $569,977, or $0.18 per share, compared to net income of $1,271,377, or $0.41 per share, in the first six months of fiscal 2013. The year ago period was positively affected by the one-time gain on the sale of property.

"The second quarter and six month results were negatively affected by a delay in our orders from our suppliers caused by manufacturing constraints around Chinese New Year," said CEO Don Boone. "Due to these constraints, shipments to our customers were delayed and also pushed back the rollout of several new products. We do not expect these constraints to continue in the remainder of fiscal 2014."

As of February 28, 2014, the Company's cash position was $5.8 million, and there was no borrowing against its $5.0 million line of credit. In the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company repurchased and cancelled 58,180 common shares at a cost of $569,019, which represents an average price of $9.78 per share. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter, the Company re-purchased and is in the process of cancelling a total of 255,313 additional shares of its common stock at a total cost of $2,486,571 at an average price of $9.74 per share. These purchases were pursuant to the Company's share re-purchase plan first announced on January 13, 2014 which has now been completed and terminated. Today the Company's Board of Directors authorized the implementation of a new share repurchase plan under Rule 10b-18. Under the new plan, the Company may purchase for cancellation up to 300,000 common shares, which represents approximately 10.6% of the 2,821,443 common shares currently outstanding.

Jewett-Cameron Announces 1st Quarter Financial Results
PR Newswire Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd.
53 minutes ago
NORTH PLAINS, Ore., Jan. 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. (JCTCF) today reported financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 ended November 30, 2013.

Sales were $8.01 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 compared to sales of $9.30 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013. For the quarter, income from operations was $543,924 compared to $772,385 in the year-ago quarter. Net income for the quarter was $332,579, or $0.11 per share, compared to net income of $480,746, or $0.15 per share, in the first quarter of fiscal 2013. Per share amounts have been adjusted for the 2 for 1 stock split of the common shares effective May 2, 2013.

"Our markets have become much more competitive," said CEO Don Boone. "In response, we have increased our efforts to obtain new business and expand our customer base to smaller and mid-size customers. These initiatives resulted in higher selling expenses during the quarter."

As of November 30, 2013, the Company's cash position was $8.096 million, and currently there is no borrowing against its $5.0 million line of credit. Today, the Company announced a new share re-purchase plan where it can repurchase for cancellation up to 313,493 common shares representing 10% of the approximately 3.1 million common shares outstanding. This share repurchase plan may commence on January 20, 2014 and will remain in place until May 16, 2014 but may be limited or terminated at any time without prior notice.

I guess I should just hope this keeps going down? Last quarter looked great to me and nothing has changed. The seed cleaning thing doesn't seem to be a big deal to me considering that they still grew as a whole pretty much in every category. Maybe I am missing something? I'm thinking I'll probably average down soon.

Jewett-Cameron Announces 3rd Quarter Financial Results
PR NewswirePress Release: Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. – NORTH PLAINS, Ore., July 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. (JCTCF) today reported financial results for the third quarter and nine month periods of fiscal 2013 ended May 31, 2013.

Sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 totaled $15.05 million compared to sales of $16.11 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2012. For the quarter, income from operations were $1,686,508 compared to $1,556,199 in the year-ago quarter. After other items and income taxes, the Company reported net income of $1,018,564, or $0.32 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $937,090, or $0.29 per basic and diluted share, in last year's third quarter, after adjusting for the Company's 2 for 1 stock split effective May 2, 2013.

For the nine months ended May 31, 2013, Jewett-Cameron reported sales of $38.58 million compared to sales of $35.10 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2012. Income from operations was $3,437,952 in the current nine month period compared to income of $2,391,570 in the year-ago nine month period. The current nine month period was positively affected by the gain on sale of property of $353,852 while the year-ago nine month period was positively affected by the reversal of Litigation Reserves totaling $1,443,629. Including the one-time gains, net income for the nine months ended May 31, 2013 was $2,289,941, or $0.73 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $2,288,897, or $0.65 per basic and diluted share, in the prior nine month period, after adjustment for the 2 for 1 stock split.

"An increasing shift towards e-commerce sales of our metal products through our customer's online websites has resulted in lower costs and higher margins," said CEO Don Boone. "We also completed the 2 for 1 stock split of our common shares, and our strong cash position combined with the additional liquidity corresponds to our practice of implementing share re-purchase programs, which we believe is an effective method of enhancing shareholder value."

As of May 31st, 2013, the Company's cash position was $7.68 million, and there is currently no borrowing against its $5.0 million line of credit. During the nine months ended May 31, 2013, the company repurchased and cancelled a total of 814 common shares at a total cost of $4,884, which represents an average price of $6.00 per share. On May 29, 2013, the Company announced the implementation of a new share repurchase plan for the purchase and cancellation of up to 400,000 common shares, which represents approximately 13% of the approximately 3.1 million shares outstanding. The plan commenced on June 3, 2013, and will remain in place until August 16, 2013, but may be limited or terminated at any time without prior notice.

Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. Authorizes Share Repurchase Plan
NORTH PLAINS, Ore., May 29, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. ("Jewett-Cameron") (JCTCF) today is pleased to announce that its Board of Directors has authorized the implementation of a share repurchase plan to purchase for cancellation up to 400,000 common shares through facilities of the NASDAQ Stock Market ("NASDAQ"). This amount represents approximately 13% of the approximately 3.1 million common shares outstanding. Since the 4th quarter of Fiscal 2010, the Company repurchased 1,646,826 common shares (adjusted for a 2 for 1 stock split effective May 1, 2013) under prior formal plans of repurchase.

Transactions may involve Jewett-Cameron insiders or their affiliates executed in compliance with Jewett-Cameron's Insider Trading Policy.

The share repurchase plan will be effected in accordance with Rule 10b-18 under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which contains restrictions on the number of shares that may be purchased on a single day, subject to certain exceptions for block purchases, based on the average daily trading volumes ("ADTV") of Jewett-Cameron's shares on NASDAQ. Purchases shall be limited to daily purchases in an amount up to 25% of the ADTV in its shares, or one "Block" purchase per week in lieu of the 25% of ADTV limitation for compliance with Rule 10b-18(b)(4). A "block" as defined under Rule 10b-18(a)(5) means a quantity of stock that, among other things, is at least 5,000 shares and has a purchase price of at least US$50,000.

This share repurchase plan may commence on June 3, 2013 and will remain in place until August 16, 2013 but may be limited or terminated at any time without prior notice.

The share repurchase program was approved by the Company's Board of Directors as part of its ongoing consideration of alternative ways to leverage the Company's strong cash position. The Board of Directors believes that a share repurchase program at this time is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, and will not impact the Company's ability to execute its growth plans.
