Nova LifeStyle Announces Third Quarter 2018 Financial Results

NVFY

North American Sales Up 11% Versus Prior Year Period

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 09, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nova LifeStyle, Inc. (NASDAQ: NVFY), a leading U.S.-based, innovative designer and distributor of modern LifeStyle home products, today announced financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Management Commentary
Tawny Lam, Chief Executive Officer of Nova LifeStyle, commented, "Our North American sales increased by 11%, which was offset by a decrease of sales to Australia and our sales efforts continue to be focused on higher margin products following our exit from the low-margin, mass product segment of the market. We are optimistic that our sales growth will continue in North American region.   Our largest selling product categories in the three months ended September 30, 2018 were sofas, cabinets and beds, which accounted for approximately 64%, 10% and 9% of sales, respectively. Overall, third quarter sales faced a very challenging comparison with last year as the prior year period featured very significant orders from an Australian customer. We are also working diligently with existing customers to shorten our collection cycle and lower our receivable amounts, and expect to make great progress in this regard in the coming fourth quarter.  We are looking forward to a strong year end after solid order activity and significant indications of interest at the recent High Point Market.”
