Armanino Foods of Distinction, Inc. (OTC Pink: AMNF) today reported record sales and profits for the first quarter ending March 31, 2015.

Net sales for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015 were $8,143,817 compared to $7,306,325 for the first quarter of 2014, an increase of 11%. Income from operations for the first quarter of 2015 was $1,565,976 compared to $1,398,268 for the comparable quarter a year ago, an increase of 12%. Earnings per share for the first quarter of 2015 was $0.0299, compared to $0.0267 for the same quarter a year ago, an increase of 12%.

Edmond J. Pera, President and CEO of Armanino Foods said, “We are very pleased with our record breaking results. Sales in all sectors of our business were up primarily due to higher demand of our products from new and existing customers, fueled in part by our aggressive investment in promotional expenditures. Despite higher promotional expenses and a higher mix of lower margin products, we were able to achieve record breaking profits for the quarter as a result of “across the board” growth in sales volume and economies of scale in our operating expenses.”

Pera continued, “We intend to continue to invest heavily in promotional expenditures into the foreseeable future in order to profitably grow our domestic markets. Also, we are in the process of securing a major piece of manufacturing equipment which will replace an older existing one. We expect the new equipment to also add substantial manufacturing capacity. This new equipment is expected to be installed sometime in the third quarter of this year.”

Pera concluded, “Our sales pipeline and our cash position currently remain strong. Armanino is cautiously optimistic about its prospects for continued gains in revenue and profitability for the remainder of the year.”
