Courier Corp. Reports Higher Sales and Earnings in Q1
"Excellent products and continued success in marketing to consumers were not enough to bring Dover's sales growth up to expectations," said Mr. Conway. "The good news is that we have responded to the situation in a comprehensive way that included two key management additions. We have also begun a restructuring of Dover's warehousing operations that will improve both customer service and operating efficiency. In addition, Dover and REA have begun working together on the development of a common technological infrastructure which should lead to further improvements in customer service and marketing as well as production. These latter steps reduced profitability in the quarter by about $100,000 and are anticipated to be approximately $600,000 over the year as a whole, but we expect to generate annual savings in excess of $800,000 in fiscal 2006 and beyond. With a stronger product lineup than ever in both businesses, we believe we are putting the pieces in place for solid revenue and earnings growth throughout the segment."
