POST FALLS, Idaho--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Command Center, Inc. (Pink Sheets:CCNI - News), an emerging provider of on-demand, reliable labor solutions, today announced revenue of $51.5 million for the 52-week period ended December 25, 2009, compared with revenue of $78.8 million for the 52-week period ended December 26, 2008.
The company said the reduction in revenue was caused primarily by the weakening economy and the reduction in operating stores to 50 at the end of fiscal 2009, down from 57 at the end of 2008.
According to Command’s Chairman and CEO, Glenn Welstad, “Management’s yearlong objective to increase selling efforts, with strong cost controls in place, brought cash flow to essentially break even in the fourth quarter of 2009. We also saw favorable results in the first quarter of 2010, with a year-over-year average weekly sales increase of 14% reported in March 2010. We remain optimistic that we have turned the corner towards rising sales and profitability.â€
Command Center reported a net loss of $6 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted weighted average common share outstanding, for the 52-week period ended December 25, 2009. This compares with a net loss of $17.6 million, or $1.04 per basic and diluted weighted average common share outstanding, for the comparable period of 2008. The loss in 2008 included impairment of goodwill charges of $11.76 million related to the acquisition of franchises in 2006. There were no further impairment charges in 2009, and goodwill remains at $2.5 million.
Mr. Welstad said management is also focused this year on improving working capital, reducing debt and interest expense, and lowering the company’s receivable financing costs. “Through the recent renewal of our primary credit line and the modification of our subordinate debt, we have already made considerable progress in improving our financial position and reducing our financing costs. We are now fully compliant with all of the terms of these credit facilities. We expect this year to generate additional working capital from equity investments, refunds of collateral deposits with former workers’ compensation insurance carriers, and positive cash flow from operations. That gives us further confidence that 2010 can be a turnaround year for Command Center.â€
