Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2014 Results:

Sales revenue was $216.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2014, an increase of 30.3 percent from $166.1 million compared to the third quarter of fiscal year 2013. Revenue outperformed the light vehicle market growth rate in North America and Europe of 9.5 percent and 5.0 percent, respectively, over the third quarter of 2013. This growth was accomplished through product launches, market gains, product mix and sales added from acquisitions.

Gross profit for the third quarter improved 35 percent to $22.1 million, or 10.2 percent of sales revenue, compared to $16.4 million, or 9.9 percent of sales revenue, for the third quarter of 2013. The business continues to contribute to the positive change in gross profit through investments in manufacturing technologies on current programs and new program launches.

Operating income improved nearly 19 percent to $9.7 million, compared to $8.2 million for the same period last year.

Net income increased 58 percent for the third quarter of fiscal year 2014 to $8.3 million, or $0.49 per share diluted compared to the prior year third quarter net income of $5.3 million, or $0.31 per share diluted. During the current quarter, the Company claimed additional research and development tax credits related to its business activities from 2010 to 2013, improving earnings per share by $0.14 per share diluted. Current operations increased earnings per share diluted by nearly 13% excluding these tax credits.

First Nine Months 2014 Results:

Sales revenue improved $115.3 million to $608.9 million, a 23.4 percent improvement, as compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2013 of $493.6 million. Gross profit improved 31.2 percent and was driven by productivity actions, higher sales revenue compared to market growth, new product launches and sales added from acquisitions. Operating income for the first nine months of fiscal 2014 improved 27.8 percent to $30.4 million, compared to $23.8 million for the first nine months of the previous year. Net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2014 was $21.4 million, or $1.25 per share diluted, an improvement of 41.7 percent over the prior year's net income of $15.1 million, or $0.89 per share diluted.

The net cash flow provided by operating activities for the first nine months of 2014 generated $16.2 million. Capital expenditures were $24.0 million, reflecting the Company's continued investment in both maintenance and technology capital.

"In August, we announced our newest addition to our BlankLight™ family of products; an aluminum laser welded blank. This breakthrough technology allows automakers to further reduce mass compared to existing steel and aluminum monolithic methods without compromising part integrity or formability," said Ramzi Hermiz, president and chief executive officer. "Growth through technology and innovation have been an important part of our strategy the past 2 years and we are seeing signs that our customers value this approach. We have strengthened our technology and product offerings, improved margins, expanded our footprint as well as diversified our customer portfolio, and we will continue to do so as we strive towards Lightweighting Without Compromise."
