Flow International Announces Fourth Quarter Results
Standard Segment Sales Drive Sequential Revenue Growth
KENT, Wash., July 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Flow International Corporation (Nasdaq: FLOW), the world's leading developer and manufacturer of industrial waterjet machines for cutting and cleaning applications, today reported results for its fiscal 2010 fourth quarter ended April 30, 2010.
For the quarter, Flow reported consolidated revenues of $48.6 million, a 7% sequential increase from $45.4 million in the fiscal 2010 third quarter, and an 11% increase from $43.7 million in the fourth quarter one year ago.
The Company reported fiscal 2010 fourth quarter net income of $0.1 million or $0.00 per share. That compares to a net loss of $4.5 million or $0.12 loss per share in the year ago fourth quarter, which included non-recurring pre-tax charges aggregating to $5.2 million. Excluding those charges and the related tax effects, the year ago fourth quarter pro forma loss from continuing operations was $1.2 million or $0.03 loss per share.
"This marks our third consecutive quarter of sequential revenue growth, as we continue to see signs that our Standard segment is stabilizing or improving in most of our global markets, with customers generally starting to reinvest in line with the pace of recovery," said Charley Brown, President and CEO of Flow. "We also continue to remain optimistic about our Advanced segment as our backlog stood at $21.9 million despite nearing completion of the Company's initial two-year, $30 million Airbus A-350XWB contract."
Operations Review for Fiscal 2010 Fourth Quarter
- Standard segment sales, which include sales of systems that do not require significant custom configuration as well as parts and services for those installed systems, were $40.7 million, an increase of $3.7 million or 10% sequentially from the fiscal year 2010 third quarter, and an increase of $9.7 million or 31% from the prior year fourth quarter.
- Advanced segment sales, which include sales of complex aerospace and application systems requiring specific custom configuration and advanced features as well as parts and services for those installed systems, were $7.9 million for the quarter, a sequential decrease of $0.4 million or 5% from the fiscal year 2010 third quarter, and a decrease of $4.8 million or 38% from the prior year quarter. Advanced segment sales are recorded using the percentage of completion method, with lead times ranging as long as 18 to 24 months.
- Aggregate gross margins were 39.0% for the quarter, compared to gross margin of 40.2% in the fiscal 2010 third quarter and 39.8% in the prior year fourth quarter.
- Total overall operating expenses for the quarter were $18.4 million. That compares to $18.5 million in the fiscal 2010 third quarter; and to $17.9 million in the prior year fourth quarter, excluding $4.5 million in non-recurring charges.
- In the prior year fourth quarter, the Company recorded non-recurring charges aggregating to $5.2 million comprised of $4.5 million related to previously deferred transaction costs for a terminated acquisition, consolidation of manufacturing facilities and severance costs, and a $0.7 million charge primarily related to the amendment of its senior credit facility. There were no non-recurring charges in the fiscal year 2010 fourth quarter.
