FARMINGTON, Conn., April 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- EDAC Technologies Corporation (Nasdaq: EDAC), a diversified designer, manufacturer and servicer of precision components for aerospace and industrial applications, today reported record sales of $17.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2010, compared with $9.6 million for the first quarter of 2009 and $16.3 million in the 2009 fourth quarter. Net income for the 2010 first quarter was $360,000, or $0.07 per diluted share, up from $56,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the 2009 first quarter and $113,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2009.
The sharp increase in sales compared with the 2009 first quarter primarily reflected the acquisition in May 2009 of the manufacturing business unit of MTU Aero Engines North America Inc. ("AERO") and, to a lesser extent, the acquisition in August 2009 of the assets of Service Network Inc. ("SNI"). The acquired AERO and SNI units now operate as part of the Company's EDAC AERO and Gros-Ite Spindles product lines, respectively. The sequential rise in sales from the fourth quarter of 2009 to the first quarter of 2010 was due to organic growth, driven by management's strategies to diversify the range of parts EDAC supplies to aerospace and industrial customers, and to expand its participation in emerging aviation programs.
Additional details of EDAC's 2010 first quarter results include the following:
- Total sales increased 85.6% from the first quarter of 2009 and included $6.7 million of sales from the AERO and SNI operations acquired in the second and third quarters of 2009. The increase also reflects 16.0% organic growth. The 9.1% increase in sales from the fourth quarter of 2009 resulted entirely from organic growth. Total sales include three product lines:
- Sales of the EDAC AERO product line were $12.6 million, an increase of 142.1% from the first quarter of 2009. The increase included $6.3 million of sales from the AERO acquisition and 21% organic growth. EDAC AERO sales rose 3.4% from the 2009 fourth quarter.
- Sales of the Apex Machine Tool product line were $4.0 million in the 2010 first quarter, increasing 3.5% from the first quarter of 2009 and 19.4% from the 2009 fourth quarter. The sequential increase includes sales to new customers in the space, medical and consumer sectors.
- Sales of the Gros-Ite Spindles product line totaled $1.2 million in the 2010 first quarter, up 127.8% from the 2009 first quarter and 53.4% sequentially. The year-over-year increase included $386,000 of sales from SNI in the 2010 first quarter. The organic growth in spindle sales year-over-year and sequentially was due to rising demand from customers in the telecommunications and other industries.
- Gross profit was $2.1 million for the 2010 first quarter, increasing 98.2% from the first quarter of 2009 primarily due to the acquisition of AERO, and 54.1% sequentially largely due to improved manufacturing processes. Gross profit was 12.0% of total sales in the first quarter of 2010 compared with 11.3% in the first quarter of 2009 and 8.5% in the 2009 fourth quarter.
- SG&A costs for the 2010 first quarter increased 100.9% from the 2009 first quarter primarily due to the acquisition of AERO, and 15.1% sequentially primarily due to management incentive programs and marketing expense. SG&A represented 9.7% of total sales in the first quarter of 2010 compared with 9.0% in the first quarter of 2009 and 9.2% in the fourth quarter of 2009.
- Results for the 2010 first quarter included other income of $350,000, equivalent to $0.05 per diluted share after-tax, from the recognition of a deposit on an equipment purchase made by AERO prior to its acquisition.
"EDAC's performance in the 2010 first quarter reflects our efforts to build the business both through acquisitions and organic growth. We have demonstrated our ability to absorb last year's acquisitions of AERO and SNI, which expanded our footprint in the aerospace and industrial sectors, and to grow those businesses under our ownership. At the same time, we have made investments to expand the range of parts we supply to a variety of aerospace customers, and to win an increasing role in emerging programs such as the Joint Strike Fighter, Boeing 787 Dreamliner, and LEAP-X and Geared Turbofan high-efficiency jet engines. We realigned the Apex Machine Tool management to sharpen our focus on opportunities in that product line, and are continuing to expand the applications for Gros-Ite Spindles among existing and new customers. As a result, we feel confident in the potential of all of our businesses to deliver profitable growth in 2010," said Dominick A. Pagano, President and Chief Executive Officer.
Backlog and Outlook
EDAC's total sales backlog at April 3, 2010 was approximately $136.1 million, an increase of $10.2 million from the $125.9 million reported at the end of 2009. Subsequent to the end of the 2010 first quarter, backlog increased by an additional $4 million, to approximately $140.0 million currently. The increase reflected an expanding range of parts for aircraft engines, the addition of a significant contract to supply structural aerospace products, and several contracts to provide components for new military and commercial aircraft programs.
Mr. Pagano noted, "Based on our backlog, we expect our sales in the second quarter to slightly exceed our first quarter sales of $17.8 million and to be substantially higher than the $13.6 million recorded in the second quarter of 2009. We are continuing to pursue strategies and evaluate opportunities to gain share in our markets through complementary acquisitions and investments that expand and diversify our product lines, services and manufacturing capabilities."
