Jinpan International Reports Second Quarter 2012 Financial Results
CARLSTADT, N.J., Aug. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Jinpan International Ltd. (NASDAQ: JST), a leading designer, manufacturer, and distributor of cast resin transformers, today announced the unaudited consolidated financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012.
Second Quarter 2012 Results
Net sales for the second quarter were $55.5 million, a 4.7% decrease from $58.3 million in the same period last year. The decrease in sales was primarily the result of decreased international sales. In the second quarter, domestic sales accounted for $51.2 million, or 92.3% of net sales, compared to $46.1 million, which also represented 79.1% of net sales in the same period last year. Net sales outside of China for the quarter were $4.3 million, or 7.7% of net sales compared to $12.2 million, or 20.9% of net sales for the same period last year.
The sales of cast resin transformers (excluding those for wind power applications), switchgears and unit substations represented $48.6 million, or 87.6% of net sales in the second quarter, while wind energy products (cast resin transformers and VPI products for wind power applications) represented $6.9 million, or 12.4% of net sales during this quarter.
Gross profit in the second quarter decreased 23.0% year over year to $17.1 million from $22.2 million in the same period last year. Second quarter 2012 gross profit margin was 30.8%, compared to 38.1% in the prior year period, and 36.9% in the 2012 first quarter. Gross margin decreased in the second quarter due to lower product prices, resulting from a competitive pricing environment, and a higher ratio of standard to customized products sold.
Selling and administrative expenses in the second quarter were $14.2 million, or 25.6% of net sales, compared to $13.8 million, or 23.7% of net sales in the same period last year. Selling expenses increased in the second quarter due to higher commissions resulting from increased sales in China. Compared with international sales, the Company pays more commission per dollar of sales in China, because it employs a direct market strategy in China whereas international sales are comprised mostly of large orders from several OEMs. Administrative expenses also increased due to increased salary expenses resulting from the Company's implementation of its expansion plans.
Operating income for the second quarter decreased 65.4% to $2.9 million, or 5.3% of net sales, from $8.4 million, or 14.5% of net sales, in the same period last year. Net income for the second quarter decreased 67.6% to $2.4 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, from $7.3 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, in the same period last year. Second quarter net income as a percentage of net sales was 4.2% compared to 12.5% in the same period last year.
Mr. Zhiyuan Li, Chief Executive Officer of Jinpan, commented, "Our results were generally in line with our preliminary results announced in the first half of July. As reported earlier, our business in the second quarter was negatively impacted by a change in the design of wind power products by our primary OEM customer, resulting in decreased international sales. We were also impacted by weaker than expected domestic orders in China due to a softer economic environment."
"In our international business, we continue to work closely with our major OEM customer on new product specifications and design so they can be integrated into the new wind power cast resin transformer products we will manufacture for this customer. We expect a portion of our export sales shortfall to be offset by increased orders from our two other OEM customers in the second half of the year resulting in international sales to be equal or slightly less than last year."
"In our domestic business, despite the softer economic environment, we continue to manufacture our cast resin transformer products for many sizeable infrastructure projects and continue to receive a steady flow of new orders. At the end of July, we had a backlog of approximately $115 million, of which we expect approximately 70% to 80% of this backlog to be shipped in 2012, setting us up for an improved second half. While we are adjusting our full year forecast to reflect reduced domestic order activity in July, we remain confident in our long term growth trajectory and will continue towards the goal of developing Jinpan into a leading, world class cast resin transformer manufacturer."
