Riviera Tool Reports Second Quarter Results
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., April 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Riviera Tool Co.
today announced sales and net income for the second quarter and six months
ended February 29, 2004.
The Grand Rapids, Mich.-based designer and manufacturer of stamping die systems
reported net income of $212,083, or $0.06 per diluted share, on net sales of
$8.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2004, compared with net income of
$231,348, or $0.07 per diluted share, on net sales of $8.3 million for the same
period of fiscal 2003.
For the six months ended February 29, 2004, Riviera reported net sales of $16.6
million, a nearly 34 percent increase over last year's net sales of $12.6
million. The Company posted sharply higher earnings of $450,012, or $0.13 per
diluted share, for the first six months of fiscal 2004, versus $42,434, or
$0.01 per diluted share, for the same period last year.
The Company attributed its increased year-to-date sales and earnings to tooling
programs for the Mercedes Benz M Class sports utility vehicle and a new
crossover vehicle, which were secured during fiscal 2003, along with related
engineering and die management services.
Riviera reported that its contract backlog was $16.6 million on February 29,
2004, including new orders of $3.6 million secured during the first and second
quarters. Riviera noted that its flat sales and new orders in the quarter
reflect the timing of new potential contracts. Although the market for tooling
systems appears sluggish with limited contracts being awarded during the first
and second quarters of 2004, the Company remains optimistic that tooling
contracts releases should increase during the latter part of the third quarter
through the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004.
"The contracts we secured last year continue to yield strong revenues and a
solid backlog, at the same time, we continue to quote on new contracts to fuel
our growth," said Kenneth K. Rieth, president and chief executive officer of
Riviera Tool. "While we continue to be bullish on opportunities for Rivera
Tool, there is still some softness in the overall domestic tooling industry.
However, based on positive reports from the spring auto shows and the current
quoting activities we anticipate that the market should significantly improve
during the latter half of 2004."
As reported in March 2004, the Company raised $1.5 million in additional
capital through the sale of 394,737 shares of its common stock in a private
placement to several institutional and accredited investors. Riviera also
granted warrants for the investors to purchase additional stock, which would
generate additional capital for the Company. The Company said the capital
raised will be used for general working capital purposes.
For the first six months of 2004, Rivera reported that it has improved its
financial performance in a number of areas, including:
* Gross margin: The Company reported its gross margin was 10.2 percent for
the first six months of 2004, up from 9.2 percent for the same period last
year. Gross margins for the second quarter decreased slightly to 10.1 percent
versus 10.5 percent for the same period last year due to efforts by the Company
to meet delivery dates and engineering changes for customers.
* Improved cash flow: Riviera generated $4.4 million of cash flow from
operations for the first six months of fiscal 2004.
* Reduction of debt and interest expense: Riviera used its positive cash flow
over the past six months to cut total long-term debt to $5.0 million for the
second quarter ended February 29, 2004 from $9.0 million for the second quarter
ended last year. As a result of the reduced debt, the Company incurred less
interest expense in the most recent second quarter, decreasing to $123,000
versus $221,000 for the second quarter ended 2003.
"The cash flow generated from operations during the first six months of 2004
was used to pay down debt and support operations," said Peter C. Canepa, chief
financial officer for Riviera Tool. "We are focused on managing our cash and
believe that proceeds from operations, along with existing bank working capital
and proceeds from our equity offering in March, will provide us the necessary
cash to fund growth moving forward."
