FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
July 28, 2005
NN, INC. REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2005 RESULTS
Revenues Up 12%, Earnings Per Share Up 75%
Johnson City, Tenn, July 28, 2005 - NN, Inc. (Nasdaq: NNBR) today reported its
financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2005. Net sales for the
second quarter of 2005 rose 11.8% to $84.2 million from $75.3 million for the
same period of 2004. Net income for the second quarter of 2005 totaled $3.6
million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared to $2.0 million, or $0.12 per
diluted share for the second quarter of 2004, an increase of 80.0% and 75.0%
respectively.
Net sales for the first half of 2005 were $170.9 million, up 11.8%, compared to
$152.9 million for the same period of 2004. Net income for the first half of
2005 totaled $7.6 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, compared to $5.2 million,
or $0.30 per diluted share for the same period of 2004, an increase of 46.2% and
46.7% respectively.
James H. Dorton, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, commented, "Of the
total revenue increase of $18.0 million in the first half of 2005 as compared to
the same period in 2004, volume improvements and new program share gains
accounted for $7.8 million, the impact of currency translation accounted for
$5.1 million and price increases associated with raw material pass through
accounted for the remaining $5.1 million. Our 2005 second quarter revenues
reflect slightly improving demand in both the North American and European
automotive sectors and continuing year-to-date strong industrial demand in both
markets.
"As a percentage of net sales, 2005 second quarter cost of products sold was
78.4%. These margins, though essentially flat with the second quarter of 2004
level of 78.3%, were negatively impacted by increased resin prices at our
Industrial Molding facility. Year-to-date cost of products sold was 78.2% which
continued to show improvement
over 2004 full year margins of 79.1%. This improvement was a direct result of
the cost reduction efforts generated by our Level 3 initiative.
"Selling, general and administrative expenses of $7.3 million, or 8.7% of net
sales for the second quarter of 2005 decreased $744,000 from $8.0 million, or
10.6% of net sales for the second quarter of 2004. The decrease was primarily
due to lower Sarbanes-Oxley compliance costs as compared to the prior year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first half of 2005 remained
on plan at 8.7% of net sales as compared to 9.9% of net sales for the same
period in 2004.
Mr. Dorton concluded, "Debt minus cash remained relatively unchanged from the
beginning of the year. Although traditionally our working capital needs are
higher for the first half of the year, we are currently running behind our
previously announced debt reduction goal of $12.0 million to $13.0 million for
the full year of 2005. We remain committed to this goal and will take measures
in the second half of the year to aggressively manage our working capital needs
and reassess our capital expenditure plans."
Roderick R. Baty, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We continue
to be pleased with the start-up investments we have made in Slovakia and China,
as well as certain strategic initiatives which have positioned the Company well
for improving financial performance for the remainder of 2005 and beyond.
Mr. Baty concluded, "In total, our operations are performing at levels
established in our original business plan. We anticipate the strong overall
levels of demand we experienced during the first half of the year to continue
into the third and fourth quarters. As a result, our capacity utilization rates
should remain high for the remainder of the year. We still face concerns
regarding the volatility of steel inflation in the U.S. We will continue to
experience significant steel raw material inflation in the domestic market
during the last six months of the year. In Europe, there is a downward trend for
scrap surcharge pricing levels and we expect this trend to continue through the
remainder of 2005. In addition to the steel inflation, we have experienced
higher resin costs at our Industrial Molding operation due to historically high
oil prices. Our 2005 earnings projections include provisions for a continuing
pass through of both steel and plastic resin inflation in the form of higher
selling prices to our customers.
"Finally, currency remains an open issue with respect to our previously provided
guidance for both revenue and earnings in 2005. If the U.S. Dollar-Euro exchange
rate for the remainder of the year remains at the level in place at the end of
the second quarter, we would anticipate currency translation to negatively
affect both revenue and earnings. Our revenue estimate for the full year would
be adjusted downward by approximately $9.0 million to $328.0 million. Our
anticipated full year earnings would be impacted by approximately $0.04 per
diluted share and result in revised full year guidance of $0.86 to $0.90 per
diluted share."
