Consolidated Graphics Reports Financial Results for the Quarter Ended September 2011
HOUSTON, Nov. 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Consolidated Graphics, Inc. (NYSE: CGX) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.
Year-over-Year Quarterly Highlights:
- Revenue increased 3% to $267.4 million
- Adjusted Operating Income was $15.2 million, or 6% of revenues
- Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share were $.76
Revenue for the September quarter increased $7.3 million, or 2.8%, to $267.4 million, compared to the prior year quarter. The year-over-year revenue increase was due to growth in same-store sales of 1.7% and acquisitions, partially offset by a decline in election-related business. Adjusted Operating Income for the September 2011 quarter was $15.2 million or 5.7% of revenue, compared to $17.0 million or 6.5% of revenue last year. Adjusted Net Income was $8.3 million, or $.76 per diluted share for the quarter, compared to Adjusted Net Income of $9.0 million or $.77 per diluted share for the prior year quarter.
Operating income was $13.9 million for the September 2011 quarter and included $.6 million in charges. Operating income during the September 2010 quarter was $15.4 million and included $.7 million in charges primarily related to lease termination expenses and certain asset impairments. Net income for the September 2011 quarter was $7.5 million or $.69 diluted earnings per share, compared to $8.1 million or $.69 diluted earnings per share last year.
Joe R. Davis, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Consolidated Graphics, commented, "Considering the fact that we are in a non-election year, the results for the September quarter compare favorably to the prior quarter. Growth in our technology business, including digital print, and acquisitions contributed to the results."
Mr. Davis concluded, "Based on current market conditions and the usual seasonal improvements, we expect the December quarter's revenue to be in the range of $297 - $310 million which assumes year-over-year same-store sales growth of up to 5%, as well as incremental revenue from current year acquisitions, offset by the impact of lower election-related business. We expect Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share in the December 2011 quarter will improve compared to the prior year, excluding the impact of lower election-related business. We estimate that lower election-related business in the December quarter will have a negative $.22 - $.25 per diluted share impact, compared to the prior year."
Share Repurchase Program Update
The Company is authorized to purchase up to an aggregate of $100 million of the Company's common shares pursuant to a share repurchase program that expires March 31, 2013. During the quarter, the Company purchased 520,436 shares of its common stock for $18.9 million pursuant to its share repurchase program. Since beginning the share repurchase program in November 2010, the Company has purchased 1,292,093 shares of its common stock (11.0% of shares outstanding) for $58.2 million, leaving $41.8 million available under the repurchase program. As of September 30, 2011 the Company had 10,434,284 common shares outstanding.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in which the Company discusses factors it believes may affect its performance or results in the future. Forward-looking statements are all statements other than historical facts, such as statements regarding assumptions, expectations, beliefs and projections about future events or conditions. You can generally identify forward-looking statements by the appearance in such a statement of words like "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "might," "plan," "potential," "predict," "forecast," "project," "should" or "will" or other comparable words or the negative of such words. The accuracy of the Company's assumptions, expectations, beliefs and projections depends on events or conditions that change over time and are thus susceptible to change based on actual experience, new developments and known and unknown risks, including those created by general market conditions, competition and the possibility that events may occur beyond the Company's control, which may limit its ability to maintain or improve its operating results or financial condition or acquire additional printing businesses. The Company gives no assurance that the forward-looking statements will prove to be correct and does not undertake any duty to update them. The Company's actual future results might differ from the forward-looking statements made in this press release for a variety of reasons, which include weakness in the economy, financial stability of its customers, the sustained growth of its digital printing business, seasonality of election-related business, its ability to adequately manage business expenses, including labor costs, the unfavorable outcome of legal proceedings, the lack of or adequacy of insurance coverage for its operations, the continued availability of raw materials at affordable prices, retention of its key management and operating personnel, satisfactory labor relations, the potential for additional goodwill impairment charges, its ability to identify new acquisition opportunities, negotiate and finance such acquisitions on acceptable terms and successfully absorb and manage such acquisitions in a timely and efficient manner, as well as other risks described under the heading "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and the risk factors and cautionary statements described in the other documents the Company files or furnishes from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K. Should one or more of the foregoing risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the Company's underlying assumptions, expectations, beliefs or projections prove incorrect, the Company's actual results may vary materially from those anticipated in its forward-looking statements, and its business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Regulation G Reconciliation
This press release also contains references to the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as earnings, or net income, before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, goodwill impairment charges, litigation and other charges, share-based compensation expense, non-cash foreign currency transaction gains and losses and net losses/gains from asset dispositions, Free Cash Flow, which we define as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures plus proceeds from assets dispositions, Adjusted Operating Income, which we define as operating income before goodwill charges, litigation and other charges, share-based compensation expense, and non-cash foreign currency transaction net (gain)/loss, Adjusted Operating Margin, which we define as Adjusted Operating Income divided by sales, Adjusted Net Income, which we define as net income (loss) before goodwill charges, litigation and other charges, share-based compensation expense, non-cash foreign currency transaction net (gain)/loss, all net of tax, and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, which we define as Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the tables below. Management's opinion regarding the usefulness of these non-GAAP financial measures to investors and a description of the ways in which management used such measures can be found in the Current Report on Form 8-K we filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
