FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
April 28, 2005
NN, INC. REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2005 RESULTS
Revenues Up 12%, Earnings Per Share Up 21%
Johnson City, Tenn, April 28, 2005 - NN, Inc. (Nasdaq: NNBR) today reported its
financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2005. Net sales for the
first quarter of 2005 were $86.7 million, an increase of 11.7% from $77.6
million for the same period of 2004. Net income for the first quarter of 2005
totaled $4.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared to $3.2 million, or
$0.19 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2004, an increase of 25% and
21% respectively.
Roderick R. Baty, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Of the total
revenue growth of $9.1 million in the first quarter, the impact of foreign
currency translation accounted for $3.4 million, price increases associated with
raw material pass through accounted for $3.1 million and market share/volume
improvements accounted for $2.6 million. Our 2005 first quarter revenues reflect
flat demand in both the North American and European automotive sectors and
strong industrial demand in both markets. As a result, our first quarter revenue
of $86.7 million was slightly lower than anticipated, but we remain on track
with the previously announced 2005 full year revenue guidance of $337.0 million.
"As a percentage of net sales, 2005 first quarter cost of goods sold of 78.0%
was essentially flat to the 2004 first quarter cost of goods sold of 77.8%.
However, cost of goods sold in the first quarter of 2005 was 3.8% and 1.1% lower
than our 2004 fourth quarter and 2004 full year levels, respectively. As a
percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses for the first
quarter of 2005 was on plan at 8.6% as compared to 9.2% for the same period in
2004 and 9.8% for the full year of 2004.
"Although debt decreased by $2.4 million during the first quarter, total debt
minus cash increased by $3.9 million, reflecting traditionally higher working
capital needs of the first quarter. We anticipate a debt reduction of
approximately $12.0 million to $13.0 million for the full year 2005.
"Mr. Baty continued, "While we continue to have concerns regarding the overall
volatility of steel and raw material inflation, we do expect to recover the
impact of any future inflation in the form of price increases to our customers.
With the overall competitiveness of the markets our customers serve, this
obviously creates a difficult environment for both our customers and NN.
Mr. Baty concluded, "Overall, we are pleased with the progress we have made
during the first quarter of 2005. Several actions we implemented in 2004 have
positioned the company well for ongoing improved financial performance. This
included the start-up investment in both our Slovakian and Chinese facilities as
well as strategic restructuring initiatives in Europe and North America which
were previously announced in the fourth quarter of 2004. Additionally, our Level
3 initiative is playing an increasingly major role in achieving significant
improvements in cost, quality and customer service. The combination of these
actions continue to have a positive impact on our global manufacturing
operations."
NN, Inc. manufacturers and supplies high precision bearing components consisting
of balls, rollers, seals, and retainers for leading bearing manufacturers on a
global basis. In addition, the company manufactures a variety of other plastic
components. NN, Inc. had sales of US $304 million in 2004.
