Third QUARTER 2024
Net Sales
Net sales for the third quarter of 2024 decreased $7.6 million, or 8.3%, compared with the third quarter of 2023. Sales decreased at comparable stores by 7.9% during the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023, due to a decrease in traffic.
Gross Profit
Gross profit decreased $3.3 million, or 5.6%, in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023. The gross margin rate was 66.5% and 64.7% during the third quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively. The improvement in gross margin rate was primarily due to decreases in product costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased $0.7 million, or 1.2%, from $56.7 million in the third quarter of 2023 to $56.0 million in the third quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decreases in variable compensation totaling $0.7 million, advertising expense of $0.6 million, and depreciation expense of $0.6 million. These factors were partially offset by a $0.5 million increases in occupancy costs and a $0.2 million increase information technology expenses and $0.2 million in shipping and transportation costs.
In response to the challenges faced in our industry and continued pressure on our topline results, we took steps to close our distribution center located in Dayton, New Jersey, reduce staffing levels at our corporate office and close our trading company office located in Beijing, China. We did not incur any material asset impairment or severance costs in connection with these actions. We are actively working to sublease the distribution center space in Dayton, New Jersey. Our lease of the distribution space in Dayton, New Jersey expires in September 2026. We anticipate the annualized benefit from these actions will reduce SG&A expenses by $2.8 million to $4.1 million.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes for the third quarter of 2024 and 2023 was $0.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The decrease in the provision for income tax was due to a decrease in pretax income. Our effective tax rate was 77.0% and 22.4% in the third quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate was largely due to a decrease in pre-tax income and a disproportionate impact of certain permanent items.
Capital Structure and Liquidity
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had no borrowings outstanding on its $75.0 million line of credit and cash and cash equivalents of $25.1 million.
NON-GAAP INFORMATION
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2024 was $5.0 million compared with $8.3 million for the third quarter of 2023. See the table below for a reconciliation of GAAP net income to Adjusted EBITDA.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA by taking net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and adjusting for interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted EBITDA margin is equal to Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. The Company calculates Pretax Return on Capital Employed by taking income (loss) from operations divided by capital employed. Capital employed equals total assets less accounts payable, income taxes payable, other accrued liabilities, lease liability and other long-term liabilities. Other companies may calculate both Adjusted EBITDA and Pretax Return on Capital Employed differently, limiting the usefulness of these measures for comparative purposes.
The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Company management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare Company performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, for purposes of determining management incentive compensation, for budgeting and planning purposes and for assessing the effectiveness of capital allocation over time. These measures are used in monthly financial reports prepared for management and the Board of Directors. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other specialty retailers, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.
Company management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitations of these non-GAAP financial measures are that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non-GAAP financial measures in connection with GAAP results. The Company urges investors to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the business.
