EDAC Technologies Reports Record Sales and Operating Earnings for Fiscal 2011 Second Quarter
- Net Income Rises to $0.19 per Share on Record Sales of $21.9 Million -
- Backlog Totals Approximately $168 Million at Quarter-End -
FARMINGTON, Conn., July 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- EDAC Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: EDAC), a diversified designer, manufacturer and servicer of precision components for aerospace and industrial applications, today reported record sales of $21.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2011, an increase of 16% compared with $18.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2010. On a sequential basis, the 2011 second quarter sales rose more than 8% from the $20.2 million reported for the 2011 first quarter.
Net income for the 2011 second quarter was $977,000, or $0.19 per diluted share, an increase of 183% compared to $345,000, or $0.07 per diluted share, reported for the same period of 2010. Sequentially, the 2011 second quarter net income was more than double the $408,000, or $0.08 per share, reported for the first quarter of 2011.
EDAC noted that all three of its major product lines, EDAC AERO, APEX Machine Tool and EDAC Machinery, contributed to the increase in 2011 second quarter sales both sequentially and as compared with the year-ago period. The sharp rise in net income versus the 2010 period primarily reflected the increase in sales, as well as a higher gross margin due to more cost-effective manufacturing of certain parts and a favorable product mix.
Sales for EDAC's three major product lines, and the key factors contributing to the sales trends, are as follows:
- Sales for the EDAC AERO product line were $14.3 million, an increase of 13% from the second quarter of 2010 and 4% higher than the 2011 first quarter. This primarily reflected increased shipments of fan cases, stators and other components for a number of aircraft engine programs.
- Sales for the APEX Machine Tool product line were $5.3 million in the 2011 second quarter, an increase of 10% from the year-ago first quarter and up 14% sequentially, reflecting increased demand for fixture, tooling and mold products due to the economic recovery, as well as ongoing efforts to expand the customer base and markets for APEX products.
- Sales for the EDAC Machinery product line were $2.3 million, an increase of 62% from the second quarter of last year and up 27% sequentially. This reflected stronger sales of spindle and precision grinder products to aerospace and automotive customers due to the economic recovery, as well as the Company's successful efforts to revitalize the acquired SNI and Accura Technics businesses.
Other highlights of EDAC's results for the recent period are as follows:
- Gross profit for the 2011 second quarter was $3.6 million, or 16.6% of sales. This compares with $2.3 million, or 12.0% of sales, in the 2010 second quarter and $2.8 million, or 13.9% of sales, in the 2011 first quarter. The gross margin increase reflected more cost-effective production processes for certain parts and a shift in sales mix to the Company's higher margin product lines.
- SG&A expenses for the 2011 second quarter were $1.9 million, or 8.7% of sales, compared with $1.5 million or 8.1% of sales in the second quarter of 2010 and $1.9 million, or 9.6% of sales, in the first quarter of 2011.
- Operating income for the second quarter of 2011 was $1.7 million, up 137% from the $729,000 recorded in the 2010 second quarter and double the $864,000 recorded for the 2011 first quarter.
For the first six months of fiscal 2011, EDAC's sales increased 15% to $42.1 million from $36.6 million for the comparable 2010 period. Income from operations was $2.6 million for the first half of 2011, up 128% from $1.1 million for the same period of 2010. Net income was $1.4 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the first half of 2011. For the first half of 2010, net income was $704,000, or $0.14 per diluted share, including other income of $360,000 from the recognition of a deposit on an equipment purchase made by AERO prior to its acquisition.
Backlog and Outlook
Total sales backlog at July 2, 2011 was approximately $168.0 million, compared with $134.4 million at the end of the 2011 first quarter and $135.1 million at July 3, 2010.
"EDAC's performance for the second quarter shows that we are achieving the critical mass of sales needed to drive stronger margins and a more consistent level of profitability. We have accomplished this goal by working to position each of our key product lines to capture the opportunities in their respective markets. EDAC AERO has benefitted from our investments in broadening the range of parts we provide to key aerospace customers, as well as in enhancing our production capabilities. APEX Machine Tool is focused on serving larger and more complex customer projects and was aided further by an improved economic environment. EDAC Machinery has expanded its product portfolio and technical capabilities through acquisitions that are now beginning to gain solid traction," said Dominick A. Pagano, EDAC's President and Chief Executive Officer.
"For the remainder of 2011, we expect continued top-line growth as compared to the year-ago periods. Based on our backlog, and past customer demands, we expect this growth to be lighter in the third quarter and more heavily concentrated in this year's fourth quarter. Over the longer term, we believe the prospects for the aerospace industry are very favorable, as the level of aircraft orders at the recent Paris Air Show indicates solid demand along the aerospace supply chain beginning in the next several years, while our industrial lines will benefit as economic conditions remain on track," Mr. Pagano concluded.
