.6%; a decrease in wages and benefits of $6.9 million, or 9.9%; and a decrease in overhead expenses of $2.3 million, or 1.1%. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit margin was 10.1% for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 14.5% for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.  Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses consist primarily of wages and benefits and other expenses such as marketing, travel, legal, audit, rent and utilities costs, which are not directly or indirectly associated with the manufacturing of our products. SG&A expenses decreased $7.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily as a result of the gain on the sale of a building of $3.5 million and reduced incentive compensation expense, partially offset by an increase in salary expense and consulting spend during the 2024 period. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expense was 10.2% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 compared to 9.7% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023.

Other (Income) Expense. Other income increased $3.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023 due primarily to transition service fees of $3.2 million recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024 which supported the transition of discontinued operations transactions as well as favorable change in foreign currency of $0.5 million.

Interest Expense.  Interest associated with our debt was $9.2 million and $10.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease primarily related to lower average debt balances, partially offset by higher interest rates on variable rate debt during the respective comparative periods.

Loss on extinguishment of debt. On December 19, 2024, the Company refinanced its long-term debt, which resulted in a loss of $0.5 million, including a $0.3 million non-cash write off relating to deferred financing costs of the Term loan facility due 2027 and $0.2 million of other associated fees.
