"Second quarter net sales were up 5% despite several headwinds, including lower purchases from one of our larger customers due to its first quarter inventory build and the consolidation of another large customer. The team executed well on many fronts which allowed us to deliver solid double digit earnings growth. We remain optimistic about the long term organic growth prospects for our business, and for the year we expect mid-to-high single-digit revenue growth and reported net income growth to be in the high single-digit to low double-digit range," said Matt Barton, President and Chief Executive Officer.
Gross profit margin for the second quarter of 2016 was 39.2% compared to 38.5% in the second quarter of 2015 primarily due to a favorable sales mix, lower freight costs and a lower provision for excess inventory. SG&A expenses increased 4% in the second quarter of 2016 to $41.2 million from $39.7 million in the second quarter of 2015 and were in line with expectations.
For the six months ended June 25, 2016, sales increased 8% over the prior year to $417.7 million from $387.2 million last year. Diluted earnings per share in 2016 rose 17% to $1.46 from $1.25 in the prior year. Operating cash flow increased to $36.5 million for the first six months of 2016 compared to $34.9 million in the first six months of 2015.
"Our focus continues to be on delivering innovative new products to drive organic growth. We introduced 871 unique SKUs during the second quarter. A total of 1,974 unique SKUs were introduced in the first six months of the year, a 15% improvement over the same period of 2015. Additionally, our HD Solutions business continues to impress. It was up 63% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to 2015 due to a customer product expansion at a large national account as well as widespread new product acceptance across the broader Heavy Duty marketplace. Year to date revenues from our Dorman HD Solutions line are approaching 2% of our consolidated net sales. I would like to thank all of our contributors for another successful quarter, and our customers and end-users for their continued support and acceptance of our new products," said Mr. Barton.
Dorman also announced that it has acquired a 40% interest in Powertrain Industries, Inc. ("PTI"), a leading manufacturer of driveshafts and driveline related products, for approximately $6 million in July 2016. PTI is headquartered in Garden Grove, CA with four driveshaft manufacturing facilities located regionally throughout the U.S., and gives Dorman a unique opportunity to service the growing need for complete driveshafts, and quality aftermarket components. A minimal 2016 impact on net income is expected as a result of the investment. "Ron Hart, President of PTI, and his team are the aftermarket leaders in the driveline space. We are excited to be able to partner with them to continue to grow the aftermarket through the rapid introduction of new and innovative driveline repair solutions," said Mr. Barton. "We've seen rapid technological change in driveline systems, and believe that this partnership provides an immediate opportunity to emerge as a leader in driveline repair parts."
The Company repurchased 122,500 shares of its common stock for $6.5 million at an average price of $52.77 per share during the second quarter of 2016, and has $57.8 million remaining under its current $150 million share repurchase program.
