Net income was $1.6 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2020, as compared to a net loss of $1.5 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2019.

Gross profit as a percentage of sales declined to 75.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to 80.6% for the same period in 2019.

Commission and incentives as a percentage of net sales was 39.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to 42.1% for the same period in the prior year.

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, overall selling and administrative expenses decreased by $2.3 million to $6.6 million, as compared to $9.0 million for the same period in 2019. The decrease in selling and administrative expenses was due to a $1.8 million decrease in payroll costs, a $0.4 million decrease in marketing costs and a $0.1 million decrease in stock-based compensation.

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, other operating costs decreased by $0.1 million, or 2.9%, to $5.1 million, as compared to $5.2 million for the same period in 2019.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Sales, Gross Profit and Income from Operations in Constant Dollars)

To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), we disclose operating results that have been adjusted to exclude the impact of changes due to the translation of foreign currencies into U.S. dollars, including changes in: Net Sales, Gross Profit, and Income from Operations. We refer to these adjusted financial measures as constant dollar items, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these measures provide investors an additional perspective on trends. To exclude the impact of changes due to the translation of foreign currencies into U.S. dollars, we calculate current year results and prior year results at a constant exchange rate, which is the prior year’s rate. Currency impact is determined as the difference between actual growth rates and constant currency growth rates.

The table below reconciles third quarter 2020 constant dollar net sales, gross profit and income from operations to GAAP net sales, gross profit and income from operations.

	September 30, 2020								September 30, 2019				Constant $ Change
