Golden Enterprises Announces Quarterly Results

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Sept. 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Golden Enterprises Inc.'s (Nasdaq: GLDC) Board of Directors today declared a quarterly dividend of $.03375 per share payable October 28, 2015 to stockholders of record as of October 5, 2015. The quarterly dividend was increased 8% from $.03125 the previous quarter. The Board of Directors will continue to review the dividend amount every quarter.

Golden Enterprises saw a 1.15% decrease in Net Sales in the first quarter of 2016 as compared to the first quarter of 2015. Net sales for the quarter were $33,732,141 compared to $34,125,036.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased $373,438 or 2.33% during the first quarter which reflected favorable fuel cost and efficiencies gained from the new ERP system.

Operating income increased 40% or $440,988 during the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period last year. The strategic decision to grow brand business while discontinuing several partner brands that did not reach sales and margin expectations continues to positively impact operating income.

Basic and diluted net income per share for the quarter ended August 28, 2015 was $.08 compared to $.07 or $.01 increase per share. Last year's net income per share included the sale of the Decatur, Georgia warehouse which had an impact of $.02 after tax per share.

The following is a summary of net sales and income information for the thirteen weeks ended August 28, 2015 and August 29, 2014:
