MACE

Mace Security International Inc., (OTCPINK: MACE) today announced unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2014.

Financial Results, Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013

  • Net sales for the second quarter of 2014 experienced a 2.3% increase.
  • Operating loss for the second quarter of 2014 decreased by 5.7%.
  • Net loss for the second quarter of 2014 was $0.00 per share, both basic and diluted, compared to a net loss of $ (0.01) per share, both basic and diluted in the same quarter a year ago, a $649,000 or $0.01 per share improvement.
  • EBITDA for the second quarter of 2014 was a loss of $155,000 compared to a loss of $763,000 for the second quarter of 2103, a $608,000 improvement for the quarter.

“Sales for the second quarter of 2014 improved from prior year second quarter and the first quarter of 2014. After the sluggish first quarter, due to the poor weather and lost shopping days at retail, sales in the second quarter rebounded slightly and July looks to be our best sales month so far this year. Although Consumer sales continue to lag last year’s comps, sales through our Tactical/Law Enforcement and International sales channels are up 117% and 45% respectfully for the year,” stated John McCann President and CEO of Mace Security International.
