Volume of green coffee processed and sold increased 9.6% for the quarter to 25.4 million pounds, with volume associated with the Boyd business acquired in October 2017 contributing approximately 3.7 million pounds of this total volume.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, green coffee pounds processed and sold through our DSD network were 8.9 million, or 34.9% of total green coffee pounds processed and sold, while direct ship customers represented 16.3 million, or 64.1%, of total green coffee pounds processed and sold. Distributor customers represented 0.3 million pounds, or 1.0%, of total green coffee pounds processed and sold.
Net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 were $147.4 million, an increase of $15.7 million, or 11.9%, over the prior year period. This increase was driven by a $12.5 million increase in net sales of roasted coffee products, a $2.2 million increase in net sales of culinary products, a $1.2 million increase in net sales of tea products, and a $0.7 million increase in net sales of frozen liquid coffee, offset by a $(1.0) million decrease in net sales of other beverages and a $(0.1) million decrease in net sales of spice products. The addition of the Boyd business contributed $20.5 million to net sales, offset by a $(4.8) million decline in our base business driven largely by lower volume on a few large direct ship customers and the impact of pricing to our cost plus customers.
Gross profit in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 increased $2.2 million, or 4.7%, to $48.2 million from $46.1 million in the prior year period, and gross margin decreased 230 basis points to 32.7% from 35.0% in the prior year period. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to the addition of the Boyd business, while the decrease in gross margin was primarily due to a lower gross margin rate on the Boyd business, higher coffee brewing equipment costs associated with increased installation activity during the quarter and higher freight costs.
Operating expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 increased $6.1 million, or 13.7%, to $50.3 million, or 34.1% of net sales, from $44.2 million, or 33.6% of net sales, in the prior year period. The increase in operating expenses during the period was primarily due to a $4.5 million increase in selling expenses and a $4.3 million increase in restructuring and other transition expenses, including $3.4 million in pension withdrawal liability due to the Company’s partial withdrawal from the Western Conference of Teamsters Pension Plan (“WCTPP”) as a result of employment actions taken by the Company in 2016 in connection with the corporate relocation plan, and $1.1 million in DSD restructuring plan expenses. The increase in operating expenses was partially offset by a $(2.7) million decrease in general and administrative expenses primarily due to a decline in acquisition and integration costs compared to the prior year period of $1.4 million. The increase in selling expenses during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was primarily driven by the addition of the Boyd business which added $4.3 million to selling expenses exclusive of related depreciation and amortization expense, and an increase of $0.5 million in depreciation and amortization expense.
As a result of the foregoing factors, loss from operations in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was $(2.1) million, as compared to income from operations of $1.8 million in the prior year period.
Total other expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was $(2.2) million as compared to $(0.4) million in the prior year period, primarily due to higher outstanding borrowings on the revolving credit which resulted in higher interest expense, and net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments. In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, net losses on coffee-related derivative instruments were $(1.1) million compared to net gains of $0.1 million in the prior year period. Interest expense in the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $2.9 million as compared to $2.2 million in the prior year period.
Income tax benefit was $(1.3) million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 as compared to income tax expense of $0.6 million in the prior year period. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily a result of the change in net (loss) income.
As a result of the foregoing factors, net loss was $(3.0) million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 as compared to net income of $0.8 million in the prior year period. Net loss available to common stockholders was $(3.1) million, or $(0.18) per common share available to common stockholders-diluted, in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to net income available to common stockholders of $0.8 million, or $0.05 per common share available to common stockholders-diluted, in the prior year period.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP financial measures; a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their corresponding GAAP measures is included at the end of this press release.
Adjusted EBITDA was $11.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, as compared to $12.5 million in the prior year period, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 7.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, as compared to 9.5% in the prior year period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to net (loss) income determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we use the following non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our operating performance:
“EBITDA” is defined as net (loss) income excluding the impact of:
- income taxes;
- interest expense; and
- depreciation and amortization expense.
“EBITDA Margin” is defined as EBITDA expressed as a percentage of net sales.
“Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net (loss) income excluding the impact of:
- income taxes;
- interest expense;
- (loss) income from short-term investments;
- depreciation and amortization expense;
- ESOP and share-based compensation expense;
- non-cash impairment losses;
- non-cash pension withdrawal expense;
- other similar non-cash expenses;
- restructuring and other transition expenses;
- net gains and losses from sales of assets; and
- acquisition and integration costs.
“Adjusted EBITDA Margin” is defined as Adjusted EBITDA expressed as a percentage of net sales.
Restructuring and other transition expenses are expenses that are directly attributable to (i) the corporate relocation plan, consisting primarily of employee retention and separation benefits, pension withdrawal expense, facility-related costs and other related costs such as travel, legal, consulting and other professional services; and (ii) the DSD restructuring plan, consisting primarily of severance, prorated bonuses for bonus eligible employees, contractual termination payments and outplacement services, and other related costs, including legal, recruiting, consulting, other professional services, and travel.
We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide a useful measure of the Company’s operating results, a meaningful comparison with historical results and with the results of other companies, and insight into the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Further, management utilizes these measures, in addition to GAAP measures, when evaluating and comparing the Company’s operating performance against internal financial forecasts and budgets.
We believe that EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons from period to period by isolating the effects of certain items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance or that vary widely among similar companies. These potential differences may be caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expense), tax positions (such as the impact on periods or companies of changes in effective tax rates or net operating losses) and the age and book depreciation of facilities and equipment (affecting relative depreciation expense). We also present EBITDA and EBITDA Margin because (i) we believe that these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry, (ii) we believe that investors will find these measures useful in assessing our ability to service or incur indebtedness, and (iii) we use these measures internally as benchmarks to compare our performance to that of our competitors.
EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, as defined by us, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We do not intend for non-GAAP financial measures to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Prior year periods set forth in the tables below have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the impact of certain changes in accounting principles and corrections to previously issued financial statements, and the adoption of new accounting standards in the three months ended September 30, 2018 that required retrospective application.
