Powell Industries Announces Fiscal 2010 Second Quarter Results
HOUSTON, May 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Powell Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: POWL), a leading manufacturer of equipment and systems for the management and control of electrical energy and other critical processes, today announced results for the fiscal 2010 second quarter ending March 31, 2010.
Revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 were $142.1 million compared to revenues of $164.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2009. Net income for the second quarter was $9.9 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, compared to net income of $8.9 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2009.
Patrick L. McDonald, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our exceptional performance yielded strong results in the second quarter. We are pleased with our initiatives to strengthen project management and continue to see improvements in operational efficiency. We are excited about our recent acquisition in Canada, which has received a favorable response from both customers and employees.
"Our marketplace remains one of uncertainty, and we believe the events of the past week in the Gulf of Mexico may make the decisions of our oil and gas customers even more difficult in the near term. Currently, we are unable to predict when the economic issues and regulatory environment will stabilize and confidence to bring about new U.S. capital infrastructure investments will return. Our focus continues to be on our customer relationships and our ability to maintain the capabilities and resources to support our customers on projects not only in the U.S. but around the world."
The Company's backlog as of March 31, 2010 was $313 million compared to $342 million as of December 31, 2009 and compared to $486 million at the end of last year's second quarter. New orders placed during the second quarter of fiscal 2010 totaled $113 million compared to $108 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and compared to $154 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2009.
OUTLOOK
The following statements are based on the current expectations of the Company. These statements are forward-looking, and actual results may differ materially as further elaborated in the last paragraph below.
Based on its backlog and current business conditions, Powell Industries expects full year fiscal 2010 revenues to range between $550 million and $575 million and full year fiscal 2010 earnings to range between $2.10 and $2.35 per diluted share.
