Universal Corporation Reports First Quarter Results
PR Newswire - Thu Aug 04, 3:15PM CDT
George C. Freeman, III, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Universal Corporation (NYSE: UVV), reported a net loss of $5.5 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, for the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, which ended on June 30, 2016. Those results were relatively flat compared with a net loss of $5.9 million, or a $0.43 per diluted share, for the first quarter of fiscal year 2016. Results for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 included restructuring costs of $2.4 million ($1.6 million after-tax or $0.07 per diluted share). Operating loss of $8.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, was down $2.7 million compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2015. Segment operating loss, which excludes restructuring costs, was $8.1 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2017, down $4.6 million compared to the same period last year, mainly as a result of larger losses in the Other Regions segment, partially offset by earnings improvements in the North America segment. Gross margin percentages were flat for the comparative quarters with higher selling, general, and administrative costs, primarily from larger currency remeasurement and exchange losses, contributing to the earnings decline. Revenues of $295.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, increased by $20.1 million on modestly higher total volumes, mostly driven by the change in leaf supply arrangements in the North America region announced last year.
