Rodney C. Sacks, chairman and chief executive officer, said the exceptional performance reflected record sales of Monster Energy(TM) drinks, which includes low carbohydrate ("Lo-Carb") Monster Energy(TM) drinks, as well as sales of Monster Energy(TM) "Assault"(TM) energy drinks which were introduced in September 2004, increases in sales by volume, primarily of Hansen"s? and Junior Juice? children"s juice drinks in aseptic packaging and Hansen"s? apple juice and juice blends. The increase in net sales was also attributable, to a lesser extent, to sales of Lost? Energy drinks, introduced in January 2004, Joker(TM) energy drinks, introduced in January 2005, and Rumba(TM) energy juice, introduced in December 2004.
The increase in net sales was partially offset by lower sales by volume of Hansen"s? energy and functional drinks, including Deuce energy in 16-ounce cans, private label isotonic beverages, E2O Energy Water? drinks and smoothies in cans.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the quarter increased to 52.6 percent, from 45.1 percent for the comparable 2004 quarter. Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of net sales decreased to 22.9 percent, from 26.8 percent in the previous year.
