Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 decreased 2.5% to $16.9 million, compared to net sales of $17.4 million for the same period last year, with decreased net sales in the Company’s enterprise market partially offset by increased net sales in its specialty markets. Gross profit increased 6.4% to $5.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, compared to gross profit of $4.8 million for the same period last year. Gross profit margin, or gross profit as a percentage of net sales, increased to 30.2% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 compared to 27.7% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2022. OCC realized improved gross profit margins compared to the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 despite a comparable decrease in net sales levels. The Company attributes this margin improvement to gains in production efficiency as well as the impact of a more fully trained workforce.
