“I am pleased to report solid financial results for Q2 2016 with both of our segments performing well. Overall, revenue increased 14% to a record $105.3 million and income from operations increased 14% over the same period last year,” said Simon F. Nynens, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
Net sales for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016 increased 14% or $13.3 million to a record $105.3 million compared to $92.0 million for the same period in 2015. Total sales for the second quarter of 2016 for our Lifeboat Distribution segment were $89.7 million compared to $81.3 million in the second quarter of 2015, representing an increase of $8.4 million or 10%. Total sales for the second quarter of 2016 for our TechXtend segment were $15.6 million compared to $10.7 million in the second quarter of 2015, representing an increase of $4.9 million or 46%.
The 10% increase in net sales for the Lifeboat Distribution segment was mainly a result of the addition of several key product lines and our ongoing strategy of strengthening of our account penetration. This was offset in part by lower sales to one of our key accounts. The 46% increase in net sales in the TechXtend segment was primarily due to an increase of $5.6 million in extended payment terms sales transactions as compared to the second quarter ended June 30, 2015.
Cash and long term receivables amounted to $30.5 million, representing 79% of equity as of June 30, 2016. Working capital amounted to $31.9 million, representing 83% of equity as of June 30, 2016.
Gross Profit for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $7.0 million, a 9% increase compared to $6.4 million for the second quarter of 2015. Gross profit for our Lifeboat segment in the second quarter of 2016 was approximately $5.5 million compared to approximately $5.1 million for the second quarter of 2015, representing a 9% increase. Gross profit for our TechXtend segment in the second quarter of 2016 was $1.5 million compared to $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2015, representing a 10% increase.
Gross profit margin (gross profit as a percentage of net sales) for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016 was 6.7% compared to 7.0% for the second quarter of 2015. Gross profit margin for our Lifeboat Distribution segment for the second quarter of 2016 was 6.2% compared to 6.3% for the second quarter of 2015. The decrease in gross profit margin for the Lifeboat Distribution segment was primarily caused by a program change by one of our main vendors, causing gross margins to decline by 1.8% for that line. Gross profit margin for our TechXtend segment for the second quarter of 2016 was 9.3% compared to 12.3% for the second quarter of 2015. The decrease in gross profit margin for the TechXtend segment was primarily caused by the increase in extended payment sales transaction which carry lower margins.
Total selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the second quarter of 2016 were $4.8 million compared to $4.4 million for the second quarter of 2015, representing an increase of $0.4 million or 7%. This increase is primarily the result of an increase in stock compensation and amounts accrued for bonus expense in 2016 compared to 2015. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses for the second quarter of 2016 were 4.5% compared to 4.8% for the second quarter of 2015.
For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $775,000 or 33.7% of income, compared to $710,000 or 34.3% of income for the same period in 2015.
Net income and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2016 were $1.5 million and $0.34, respectively, compared to $1.4 million and $0.29, respectively, for the second quarter of 2015.
On July 27, 2016, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.17 per share of its common stock payable August 18, 2016 to shareholders of record on August 8, 2016.
