(NASDAQ:MSS) ("Maison Solutions" or the "Company"), a U.S.-based specialty grocery retailer offering traditional Asian and international food and merchandise, today announced financial results for the second quarter and six-months ended October 31, 2024. Management Commentary "I am pleased to announce another quarter of sequential and year-over-year top-line growth, a clear reflection of the successful and immediate impacts of our Lee Lee acquisition," said John Xu, President, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Maison Solutions. "When excluding the impact of our investments in non-operating stores within the Maison umbrella, we delivered organic year-over-year growth across our operating entities, as demonstrated by the growth in operating income and EBITDA figures. These are encouraging indicators as we work to further optimize margins and maintain consistent bottom-line profitability. One of our key milestones this past quarter was the successful completion of our El Monte store renovation. This marked a pivotal step in our broader corporate initiative to revitalize and enhance the customer experience across our California store portfolio. The successful completion of this first renovation lays the groundwork for our broader renovation plans in 2025 and beyond, aimed at enhancing in-store sales performance, leveraging new technologies, and catering to evolving customer preferences to drive financial growth in this key region. Beyond this ongoing initiative, our long-term strategy remains firmly focused on identifying and pursuing additional strategic acquisition. We are targeting established, profitable grocery stores with a rapidly growing and loyal Asian customer base, where synergies with our broader company brand and vision are clear. As we head into the new year, we are committed to maintaining the momentum of consistent year-over-year growth."
