OWINGS MILLS, Md., Nov. 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Universal Security Instruments, Inc. (NYSE AMEX: UUU) today announced results for its fiscal second quarter and six months ended September 30, 2023.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, sales decreased 36.5% to $3,717,455 compared to sales of $5,857,141 for the same period last year. The Company reported a net loss of $186,425, or $0.08 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $200,602 or $0.09 per basic and diluted share for the same period last year.

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, sales decreased 0.7% to $10,416,226 versus $10,492,445 for the same period last year. The Company reported a net loss of $21,295, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $94,464 or $0.04, per basic and diluted share for the corresponding 2022 period.

“Sales were lower this quarter due to delays in getting cargo off the pier in California and supply chain issues. Our net loss was also partially due to an additional premium expense of $148,000 in the 2023 period following an insurance audit, and lower net income for the 2023 period when compared to the 2022 period due to a Federal Employee Retention Credit of approximately $181,000 in the 2022 period which was not repeated in the 2023 period.” said Harvey Grossblatt, President.
