NEW YORK, Jun 04, 2013 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- GA Keen Realty Advisors, a division
of Great American Group, Inc. (OTCBB: GAMR), sold the 48,250-square-foot office
building in Cedar Falls, Iowa, that once served as the corporate headquarters to
Peregrine Financial Group.
The buyer, Spiegel Family Realty Company Iowa, LLC, emerged as the successful
bidder at an auction conducted by GA Keen Realty Advisors with a winning bid of
$3,255,000. The successful bid was $505,000 over the accepted stalking-horse
bid. The closing is expected to occur in June.
"We are pleased with this sale and the process GA Keen
Realty Advisors ran. We had outstanding interest in the property with numerous
groups requesting additional information and inspecting the property. The
auction came down to two buyers and Spiegel Family Realty Company was ultimately
the successful bidder," said Michael M. Eidelman, the
Court appointed receiver and co-chair of the bankruptcy group at Vedder Price
P.C.
"We're hoping to find a tenant or tenants to bring some jobs back to the
community and to the building," said A.J. Spiegel, owner and president of
Spiegel.
Mr. Eidelman expressed great satisfaction with the speed and efficiency of GA
Keen Realty Advisors' marketing efforts.
"I retained GA Keen Realty Advisors on February 22,
2013, and they successfully brought me a $2,750,000 stalking horse contract
within eight weeks," said Eidelman.
"The stalking horse, California-based Karlin Real
Estate, LLC, agreed to buy the property subject to
overbids."
GA Keen Realty Advisors thereafter solicited overbids, and according to
Eidelman: "successfully maximized the value of this
property."
The building is the former headquarters of Peregrine Financial Group (PFG),
owned by Russell Wasendorf, Sr., which filed for bankruptcy in July 2012.

GAMR reports .08c....Great American Group Announces Improved Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2012
Financial Results
WOODLAND HILLS, CA, Mar 28, 2013 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Great American
Group, Inc.(R) (OTCBB: GAMR) ("Great American Group" or the "Company"), a
leading provider of asset disposition, valuation and appraisal services, today
announced financial results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December
31, 2012.
-- Fiscal 2012 total revenues of $83.9 million, a 32.1% increase from
$63.5 million a year ago
-- Fiscal 2012 net income of $3.5 million, versus net income of $0.6
million from a year ago
-- Fiscal 2012 diluted earnings per share of $0.12, versus diluted
earnings per share of $0.02 from a year ago
"During fiscal 2012 we experienced significant year-over-year improvements in
our financial results with a strong increase in revenues and profitability, as
business activity across a number of our divisions improved from prior year
levels," said Andrew Gumaer, Chief Executive Officer of Great American Group.
Mr. Gumaer added, "GA Europe, GA Appraisals, and GA Keen Realty are three of our
divisions that experienced significant increases in business activity in 2012
and helped to drive our overall financial performance. The positive
contributions from all three divisions helped to diversify Great American's
revenues and offset a decline in activity in our US Retail business. We are
pleased with the growth that each of these three divisions have experienced over
the last several years and hope to continue our investment in their future
development."
Fourth Quarter Results
For the fourth quarter, the Company reported total revenues of $30.7 million, a
significant increase from revenues of $11.4 million in the fourth quarter of
2011. Revenues from services and fees were $24.5 million, compared to $10.5
million in the same period the prior year. Revenues from sale of goods were $6.3
million, compared to $0.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. The increase in
total revenues during the quarter was primarily due to increases in the UK
Retail Stores segment, as well as the retail liquidation segment that
participated in the liquidation of Comet, a 236 store electronics chain in the
United Kingdom. The Company's results include the consolidation of Shoon, the UK
shoe retailer in which the Company invested last May. Shoon contributed $10.2
million of revenue and net income of $0.5 million to our Company's consolidated
results in 2012.
Direct cost of services was $7.8 million, compared to $3.8 million a year ago.
The increase in direct cost of services was primarily the result of an increase
in costs incurred as result of services performed in connection with the Comet
liquidation engagement during the fourth quarter of 2012. Cost of goods sold was
$4.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, compared to $1.1 million in the
fourth quarter of the prior year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $13.7 million,
compared to $6.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. The increase in selling,
general and administrative expenses was primarily attributed to increases in
payroll and operating expenses from the ongoing expansion of the Company's UK
operations and the operating expenses of Shoon.
Operating income for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $4.9 million, compared to
$0.3 million during the fourth quarter of 2011.
Interest expense during the fourth quarter of 2012 declined to $0.7 million from
$1.0 million in the same period a year ago. The decline in interest expense was
primarily the result of a decrease in US retail liquidation activity that
required borrowings from our line of credit in 2011.
Pretax income was $4.1 million compared to pretax loss of $0.5 million in the
fourth quarter of 2011. Net income was $2.4 million, or $0.08 per diluted share,
compared to net loss of $0.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted share in the fourth
quarter of 2011.
Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2012
For the twelve months of 2012, the Company reported improved total revenues of
$83.9 million, compared to $63.5 million in the twelve months of 2011. Revenues
from services and fees were $65.6 million, compared to $60.6 million a year ago.
Sales of goods were $18.3 million compared to $2.9 million in the same period of
2011.
Total operating expenses were $76.5 million, compared to $56.1 million in 2011.
Operating income was $7.4 million, flat compared to the prior year. Pretax
income was $6.3 million, compared to $2.7 million during the twelve months of
2011. The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $1.9 million compared
to $2.1 million in the same period of 2011. Net income during the twelve months
of 2012 was $3.5 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared with $0.6
million, or $0.02 in the same period of 2011.
Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months of 2012 was $8.7 million compared to $8.5
million in 2011.
Financial Position
At December 31, 2012, the Company had $18.7 million in cash and cash equivalents
and $7.9 million of restricted cash, an increase compared to $15.0 million of
cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2011.

Great American Group(R)* Announces Improved Second Quarter 2012 Financial Results
Print
Alert
Grt Amer Grp (OTCBB:GAMR)
Intraday Stock Chart
Today : Tuesday 14 August 2012
Great American Group, Inc. (OTCBB: GAMR)
Total revenues of $19.7 million, an increase of 100% from a year ago
Operating income of $0.8 million, versus an operating loss of $2.2 million a year ago
Net income of $0.6 million, versus a net loss of $2.2 million a year ago
Diluted earnings per share of $0.02, versus a diluted loss per share of $0.08 a year ago
Great American Group, Inc. (OTCBB: GAMR) ("Great American Group" or the "Company"), a leading provider of asset disposition, valuation and appraisal services, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2012.
Second Quarter Results
For the second quarter ended June 30, 2012, the Company reported total revenues of $19.7 million, an increase of 100% from revenues of $9.8 million in the second quarter of 2011. Revenues from services and fees were $13.3 million, compared to $9.6 million in the same period the prior year. Revenues from sale of goods were $6.4 million, compared to $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2011. The increase in total revenues during the quarter was primarily due to increases in the auction and liquidation segment of $6.7 million, an increase in revenues in the valuation and appraisal services segment of $0.3 million, and revenues of $2.8 million from the UK retail stores segment, as a result of the Company's investment in Shoon Trading Limited ("Shoon"), a shoe retailer with operations in the United Kingdom. This represents a new reportable segment in our financial statements.
"During the quarter we experienced improvements in our financial results from the previous year," said Andrew Gumaer, Chief Executive Officer of Great American Group. "Our enhanced performance reflects increased activity in our auction and liquidation segment from operations in the United Kingdom and contributions from our GA Keen Realty Advisors division. The new UK retail stores segment operates eleven Shoon retail stores in the United Kingdom and is complementary to our continued expansion in the UK. As we head into the second half of 2012, we remain highly focused on the execution of our business initiatives and achieving our financial objectives to position the business for continued growth and profitability."
Direct cost of services was $5.0 million, compared to $3.5 million a year ago. The increase in direct cost of services was primarily the result of an increase in the number of fee and commission engagements in the second quarter of 2012, where the Company contractually bills fees, commissions and reimbursable expenses, in the auction and liquidation segment as well as an increase in headcount which resulted in an increase in salaries, wages and benefits in the valuation and appraisal segment compared to the same period in 2011. Cost of goods sold was $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $0.4 million in the second quarter of the prior year. The increase in cost of goods sold in the second quarter of 2012 included costs of goods sold of $1.5 million related to retail sales from the Shoon stores located in the United Kingdom.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $9.8 million, compared to $8.2 million in the second quarter of 2011. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily the result of an increase of $0.5 million in the auction and liquidation segment and $1.1 million in the UK retail stores segment which is new in the second quarter as a result of the consolidation of Shoon on May 4, 2012. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.1 million related to corporate overhead was offset by the decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses $0.1 million in the valuation and appraisal segment.
On May 4, 2012, the Company invested $0.1 million for a 40% interest in the common stock of Shoon. Shoon purchased the rights to operate the former Shoon internet business and retail stores that were in administration in the United Kingdom. As part of the investment, the Company has also loaned Shoon approximately $1.3 million that is collateralized by retail inventory. The Company, together with its 40% investment in the common stock of Shoon and its control of the majority of the board or directors, is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of Shoon. As such, for generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, the Company is required to consolidate the operations of Shoon. The results of operations of Shoon from May 4, 2012, the date of investment, through June 30, 2012, have been included in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.
In addition, during the second quarter, the Company recorded a gain on bargain purchase of $1.4 million since the fair value of assets acquired in the Shoon transaction exceeded consideration paid. The gain on bargain purchase is record net of tax and is included as a separate component of other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Income from operations before provision for income taxes was $1.5 million during the second quarter of 2012, compared to loss from operations before benefit for income taxes of $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2011. Excluding the gain from bargain purchase of $1.4 million included in other income related to the investment and consolidation of Shoon, income from operation before provision for income taxes was $0.2 million during the second quarter of 2012. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $0.1 million, compared with a benefit for income taxes of $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2011.
