Dow Jones Description

We are a leading distributor of animal health products to veterinarians across the United States. We distribute more than 30,000 products sourced from over 500 vendors to approximately 19,000 veterinary practices nationwide. We currently operate out of twelve strategically located distribution centers. Products we sell include pharmaceuticals, vaccines, parasiticides, diagnostics, capital equipment, supplies, veterinary pet food and nutritional products. We market these products to veterinarians in both the companion animal and production animal markets. We operate within a single reporting segment and are primarily located within the United States. Our Dallas, Texas distribution center moved from a 35,000 square foot facility to a 70,000 square foot facility in November 2008. In January 2009, we consolidated our distribution center in San Antonio, Texas into our Dallas, Texas distribution center. Historically, we estimate that approximately two-thirds of our total revenues have been generated from sales to the companion animal market and one-third from sales to the production animal market. The state of the overall economy and consumer spending have impacted both markets, while volatile commodity prices in milk, grain, corn and feeder cattle and changes in weather patterns have also affected demand in the production animal market. Both markets have been integral to our financial results and we intend to continue supporting both markets. ...
