Excluding the impact of the sale of the Camillus and Cuda hunting and fishing product lines on November 1, 2023, net sales for 2024 increased 6% compared to 2023.<\/p>\n

Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 was $1.70 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, compared to $1.56 million, or $0.40 per diluted share\u00a0(as adjusted) for the same period in 2023 an increase of 9% in net income and 3% in diluted earnings per share.

Chairman and CEO Walter C. Johnsen said, \u201cAcme United delivered a strong year in 2024. Our net sales increased 6% from our core businesses and grew overall despite the sale of the Cuda and Camillus product lines for $19.8 million in November 2023. We successfully reduced costs and implemented productivity improvements that enabled us not only to offset the contribution from the business we sold, but also to generate 23% net income growth.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur acquisition of Elite First Aid in May 2024 has given us the products and knowledge to save lives with first responder kits and supplies. This acquisition has been fully integrated into our operations, and we are aggressively working to expand its distribution and sales in 2025.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Johnsen added that the Company has strong liquidity and is positioned for further acquisitions and growth in 2025.<\/p>\n

Excluding Camillus and Cuda, net sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased 7% compared to 2023.\u00a0\u00a0 The sales increases for the three- and twelve-month periods were due to market share gains across multiple product lines.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
