The Company's increase in gross profit from 2014 to 2013 can be attributed to its management of Main Avenue Pharmacy, which generated significant sales in the first nine months of 2014 and has a gross margin percentage ranging from 85% to 91% as noted on Page 34 of its most recent 10-Q.
"Scrips recorded significant growth in revenues and gross profit during the third quarter just as it did in the second quarter, which is line with management's expectations that the Company would have a breakout year in 2014. The revenue growth we experienced during this quarter was once again primarily driven by the steadily increasing sales of Main Avenue Pharmacy which is now a wholly owned subsidiary of ScripsAmerica per our recent announcement," commented ScripsAmerica's CEO, Bob Schneiderman.
He continued, "With ScripsAmerica's specialty pharmacy partnerships, licenses to distribute prescription drugs in several states and the projected worldwide growth of the oral delivery technology market that includes our RapiMed(R) product, management is confident that 2015 will be a very successful year of continued growth for the Company. We expect the next few quarters to be pivotal for our shareholders and the value of our stock as ScripsAmerica increases its exposure to financial institutions, brokers and the investment community at large."
