Quarterly Results of Operations
Net sales increased $140.6, or 10.3%, in the second quarter of 2020 when compared to the second quarter of 2019. The second quarter of 2020 was heavily influenced by actions taken by governments and businesses around the world to address the COVID-19 pandemic, which influenced our efforts in several ways. First, we assisted the needs of governments, first responders, and critical infrastructure entities by supplying sharply increased demand for personal protective equipment ('PPE') products. This generated significant "surge"-type PPE orders in the second quarter of 2020 that did not exist in the second quarter of 2019. Second, we managed the effects of business closures and the reduction in general economic activity based on the response of governments and businesses to the pandemic, which resulted in lower sales in the second quarter of 2020 in our traditional branch and Onsite operations, and by extension their vending business. Taking these two variables together, surge sales of PPE more than offset the decline in our traditional business, producing the net sales increase in the second quarter of 2020. A lesser contributor to our sales growth in the second quarter of 2020 was higher product pricing as a result of increases implemented throughout 2019 and in the first six months of 2020 to either broadly mitigate the impacts of general and tariff-related inflation in the marketplace or to address product-specific changes in cost.
There was significant variation in our sales patterns through the second quarter of 2020. Sales of surge-type PPE were steady at high levels in April and May, before beginning to taper slightly in June. As we enter the third quarter of 2020, and as the chaos surrounding the pandemic and our pipeline of orders lessens, we expect surge-type orders to decline. This may be partly mitigated by businesses reopening, more supply becoming available, companies increasing just-in-case quantities on hand and/or additional pandemic-related developments; however, the magnitude and duration of this activity is difficult to project at this time. As described above, our traditional sales were down throughout the second quarter of 2020. Looking at trends within the second quarter of 2020, however, business activity appears to have bottomed in April before improving in May and again in June. This is best illustrated by our daily sales rate trend for fasteners, which is our most cyclical product category and which was unaffected by surge activity. In April 2020, fastener daily sales were down 22.5%. In May, the rate of decline moderated to down 15.3% and in June it moderated again to down 11.4%. However, the activity levels experienced in June remain below those that existed in the first quarter of 2020. Whether our traditional business continues to improve in the third quarter from June levels of activity, and at what pace, remains difficult to project.
Pandemic-related events also produced significant shifts in the mix of our business in the second quarter of 2020. From a product standpoint, fastener daily sales declined 16.4% in the second quarter of 2020 from the second quarter of 2019 and accounted for 26.0% of total sales; fasteners represented 32.9% and 34.5% of total sales in the first quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2019, respectively. Safety daily sales, including PPE, grew 116.3% in the second quarter of 2020 over the second quarter of 2019 and accounted for 34.0% of total sales; safety represented 19.8% and 17.5% of total sales in the first quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2019, respectively. Other products' daily sales declined 7.5% in the second quarter of 2020 from the second quarter of 2019 and accounted for 40.0% of total sales; other products represented 47.3% and 48.0% of total sales in the first quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2019, respectively. From an end market standpoint, our manufacturing and non-residential construction end markets were down 9.4% and 10.3% on a daily basis, respectively, when compared to the second quarter of 2019, while our government business was up 266.7% on a daily basis with sales to health care organizations, a subset we group with government, more than quadrupling.
Our gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, declined 240 basis points to 44.5% in the second quarter of 2020 from 46.9% in the second quarter of 2019. The most significant factor behind the decline in our gross profit percentage in the period was the impact of product mix as lower-margin safety sales rose sharply as a proportion of our total sales relative to higher-margin fastener sales. This dynamic was present throughout the second quarter of 2020, but was partly offset by favorable customer mix due to the relative weakness of our lower-margin Onsite business. A second source of pressure on our margin in the second quarter of 2020 was lower safety product margins which relates to the sources and logistics involved in securing PPE product outside of our more efficient traditional channels. This was a by-product of the conscious decision by the organization to prioritize speed of product availability over profit maximization so as to promote a faster social and economic recovery. A third factor contributing to the decline in our gross profit percentage in the second quarter of 2020 was organizational. In particular, we deleveraged certain fixed costs, such as manufacturing and our captive fleet, as well as period costs. Rebates were also a drag to gross margin in the period.
Our operating income, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 20.9% in the second quarter of 2020 from 20.1% in the second quarter of 2019. The 240 basis point decline in gross profit percentage experienced in the second quarter of 2020 was more than offset by operating and administrative expenses (including the (gain) loss on sales of property and equipment), which as a percentage of sales declined 320 basis points from the second quarter of 2019 to the second quarter of 2020. As a percentage of net sales, operating and administrative expenses improved to 23.6% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 26.8% in the second quarter of 2019. The primary reason for this improvement was the ability to leverage employee, occupancy, and general corporate expenses in light of higher sales.
Employee-related expenses, which represent 65% to 70% of total operating and administrative expenses, decreased 3.9% in the second quarter of 2020 when compared to the second quarter of 2019. The decrease in employee-related expenses was primarily from a reduction in full-time equivalent ('FTE') headcount in the period, partially offset by an increase in employer profit sharing expense. Occupancy-related expenses, which represent 15% to 20% of total operating and administrative expenses, decreased 0.9%. The major components of our occupancy expense - our distribution centers, branches, and vending device costs - all had individually very small changes that collectively produced the slight decline in occupancy expenses. All other operating and administrative expenses, which represent 10% to 15% of total operating and administrative expenses, decreased 0.4% in the second quarter of 2020. We experienced lower costs for selling-related transportation due to lower fuel prices and lower expenses due to minimal travel and generally tight cost control.
Our net interest expense was $2.4 in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $3.6 in the second quarter of 2019. Although we experienced a higher average debt level through the period, this was more than offset by lower average interest rates.
We recorded income tax expense of $74.8 in the second quarter of 2020, or 23.8% of earnings before income taxes. Income tax expense was $66.8 in the second quarter of 2019, or 24.6% of earnings before income taxes. We believe our ongoing tax rate, absent any discrete tax items, will be in the 24.5% to 25.0% range.
Our net earnings during the second quarter of 2020 were $238.9, an increase of 16.7% when compared to the second quarter of 2019. Our diluted net earnings per share were $0.42 during the second quarter of 2020 compared to $0.36 during the second quarter of 2019, an increase of 16.7%.
Growth Driver Performance
During the first six months of 2020, we signed 8,281 industrial vending devices, including 3,483 devices during the second quarter of 2020. On a business day basis, we signed 75 in the first quarter of 2020 and 54 in the second quarter of 2020, including 69 in June. Our installed device count on June 30, 2020 was 92,615, an increase of 7.9% over June 30, 2019. Daily sales through our vending devices declined at a low double-digit pace in the second quarter of 2020 over the second quarter of 2019. Our higher installed base was more than offset by significantly reduced device throughput owing to the decline in economic activity in the period. Device counts do not include slightly more than 15,000 vending devices deployed as part of our lease locker program.
During the first six months of 2020, we signed 125 new Onsite locations (defined as dedicated sales and service provided from within, or in close proximity to, the customer's facility). This included 85 signings in the first quarter of 2020 and 40 in the second quarter of 2020, including 20 in June. We had 1,212 active sites on June 30, 2020, which represented an increase of 18.1% from June 30, 2019. Daily sales through our Onsite locations, excluding sales transferred from branches to new Onsites, declined at a high single-digit rate in the second quarter of 2020 over the second quarter of 2019. New revenue from relatively new active locations was not sufficient to offset the impact of weak demand on more mature sites as well as temporary closures during the period of certain sites where customers suspended operations as a result of pandemic-driven policies.
In April 2020, we retracted our 2020 signing goals for vending devices and Onsites based on a marketplace that had begun to weaken sharply and a customer environment that had begun to divert its energies to near-term challenges over strategic planning. In the case of both vending devices and Onsites, signings bottomed in April and improved sequentially in May and again in June, though the final month's signings remained below our pre-pandemic level of expectations. We view the favorable long-term outlook for our growth drivers as unchanged relative to pre-pandemic levels. However, the timing of such normalization remains uncertain, and as a result we have not re-instituted guidance for vending and Onsite signings for 2020.
Daily sales to our national account customers (defined as customer accounts with a multi-site contract) grew 12.0% in the second quarter of 2020 over the second quarter of 2019. Revenues attributable to national account customers represented 55.1% of our total revenues in the period.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
We produced operating cash flow of $491.8 in the first six months of 2020, an increase of 47.7% from the first six months of 2019, representing 111.4% of the period's net earnings versus 83.5% in the first six months of 2019. A significant portion of the increase in our operating cash flow as a percentage of net earnings is a function of our having deferred $111.5 in federal and state income and payroll tax payments as allowed under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the 'CARES' Act), which was signed into law in March 2020 to help businesses navigate COVID-19 related challenges. The deferred federal and state income tax payments, which constitute $103.9 of the deferred value, will be made in the third quarter of 2020, while the deferred payroll taxes will be made in the third quarter of 2021. The remainder of the increase is principally from higher net income. Our investment in property and equipment, net of proceeds from sales, was $84.9 in the first six months of 2020 compared to $119.6 in the first six months of 2019. This decrease was primarily a result of lower spending to develop or expand certain of our distribution center assets and efforts to limit capital spending in light of a still uncertain business climate. Our expectations for net capital spending for 2020 are unchanged in a range of $155.0 to $180.0, down from $239.8 in 2019.
We returned $143.2 in dividends to our shareholders in the second quarter of 2020, compared to $123.1 in dividends in the second quarter of 2019. We did not repurchase any of our common stock in either period.
Total debt on our balance sheet was $405.0 at the end of the second quarter of 2020, or 12.7% of total capital (the sum of stockholders' equity and total debt). This compares to $500.0, or 16.6% of total capital, at the end of the second quarter of 2019.
Accounts receivable were $881.5 at the end of the second quarter of 2020, an increase of $61.7 or 7.5%, over the second quarter of 2019. This increase largely reflects our growth in sales. Inventory was $1,401.5 at the end of the second quarter of 2020, an increase of $55.8 or 4.1%, over the second quarter of 2019. We increased our inventory of PPE products in anticipation of greater need as the economy re-opened as well as to support the increase in our number of installed vending devices and active Onsite locations. We also did not experience the inventory burn we might normally expect to see during periods of economic weakness due to the large volume of customers that were either closed or operating at very low levels of utilization for a part of the second quarter of 2020. This was particularly evident in our fastener products. Accounts payable were $194.1 at the end of the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of $9.7, or 4.8% over the second quarter of 2019. This largely reflects the effect of lower customer demand on our purchasing activity, as a significant proportion of the PPE surge volumes in the period that drove our sales increase required immediate payment, and so did not produce trade payables on our balance sheet.

(1) This number primarily represents devices which principally dispense product and produce product revenues, and excludes slightly more than 15,000 devices that are part of our locker lease program where the devices are principally used for the check-in/check-out of equipment.
During the last twelve months, we reduced our absolute employee headcount by 1,390 people in our in-market locations and 1,565 people in total. The reduction in our absolute employee headcount in our in-market and distribution center locations reflects efforts to control expenses in response to weaker demand that has resulted from actions on the part of local governments and our core manufacturing and construction customers to address COVID-19 related risks. The decrease in our total absolute employee count is mostly from personnel reductions in our in-market locations, distribution centers, and manufacturing operations, and was only partly offset by additions in non-branch selling and support roles. The latter reflects the addition of certain employees from our acquisition of Apex as well as roles to support customer acquisition and implementation, particularly as it relates to our growth drivers and to support general corporate functions. The relatively greater declines we experienced in our FTE headcount versus our absolute employee headcount reflects the sharp curtailment of hours worked by part-time employees, which declined 23.2% in the second quarter of 2020 versus the second quarter of 2019, relative to our headcount reductions of part-time (down 14.5%) and full-time (down 3.8%) employees.
We opened four branches in the second quarter of 2020 and closed 35 branches, net of conversions. We activated 55 Onsite locations in the second quarter of 2020 and closed 22, net of conversions. The number of closings reflects both normal churn in our business, whether due to exiting customer relationships, the shutting or relocation of a customer facility, or a customer decision, as well as our ongoing review of underperforming locations. Our in-market network forms the foundation of our business strategy, and we will continue to open or close locations as is deemed necessary to sustain and improve our network, support our growth drivers, and manage our operating expenses.
