Gross sales for the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased 54.2 percent to $96.7 million from $62.8 million a year earlier. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were up 53.2 percent to $77.4 million from $50.5 million a year ago.
Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 advanced 171.7 percent to $12.0 million from $4.4 million a year ago. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased 178.2 percent to $7.3 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, from $2.6 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, last year.
Rodney C. Sacks, chairman and chief executive officer, said the exceptional performance continued to reflect strong consumer demand for Monster Energy(TM) drinks, which were introduced in 2002, Lo-Carb Monster Energy(TM) drinks, which were introduced in August 2003 and Lost® Energy drinks in 16-ounce cans, which were introduced in January 2004, as well as increased sales by volume of apple juice, Natural Sodas, in particular Diet Natural Sodas, private label beverages and, to a lesser extent, sales of Deuce Energy drinks, a reduction in allowances to certain customers which resulted in increased net sales of Junior Juice® brand drinks and increased sales by volume of Energade® Energy sports drinks and juice blends.
The sales increase was partially offset by lower sales by volume primarily of Hansen"s® children"s multi-vitamin juice drinks in aseptic packaging, smoothies in cans and bottles, Diet Red Energy drinks, teas, lemonades and juice cocktails and soy smoothies.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the quarter increased to 45.1 percent, from 40.3 percent for the comparable 2003 quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2004 rose to 44.8% from 39.1% a year ago.
