Summer Energy said, "Cost of goods sold for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, compared to June 30, 2018, increased by approximately 7.63% primarily due increased volumes delivered. The three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018 reflects a lower profit margin, which is a result of compressed unit margin caused by the competitive pressures in the marketplace, a customer base for the Company that has shifted towards a greater number of commercial accounts as opposed to residential accounts, which yield lower unit margins as well as a lower delivered volume in the Northeast market."
