ALJ Regional Holdings Reports First Quarter Results

NEW YORK, Feb. 21, 2014

On February 5, 2013, ALJJ sold its subsidiary, Kentucky Electric Steel, and prior year operations are disclosed as a discontinued operation in our Financial Statements.  Therefore, comparisons to our prior quarter are not meaningful.   

For the first quarter of fiscal 2014, revenue was $25.83 million.  Net income was $1.47 million, compared to a loss of $1.51 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013.  ALJJ acquired substantially all of the outstanding shares of Faneuil on October 18, 2013, as such our financial statements reflect the operations of Faneuil for the period of October 19, 2013 through December 31, 2013. 

According to Jess Ravich, ALJJ's Executive Chairman, "We are extremely pleased with both the performance of Faneuil during the most recent quarter as well as the integration of the operations of Faneuil into ALJJ.  In addition, during the quarter we began implementation of 2 new contracts totaling new revenue of over $4.5 million per year."
