POMPANO BEACH — Pet-medication delivery company PetMed Express Inc. said Monday that its second-quarter profit rose 12 percent as the company recorded higher sales and added new customers.
However, revenue missed Wall Street expectations, sending shares down $2.23, or 11.3 percent, to $17.45.
For the quarter ended Sept. 30, the company earned $6.3 million, or 28 cents per share, compared with $5.8 million, or 25 cents per share, a year earlier.
Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters, whose estimates generally exclude one-time items, forecast net income of 28 cents per share.
