Historical Stock Chart
From Oct 2019 to Oct 2024
LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Genlyte Group Incorporated (NASDAQ:GLYT) today announced record second quarter net sales of $408.9 million, an increase of 11.7% compared to $366.1 million in the second quarter of 2006. The Company also reported record second quarter earnings per share of $1.29, a 4.0% increase over the $1.24 reported for the second quarter of 2006. Second quarter net income increased to $37.4 million compared to $35.9 million reported for the second quarter of 2006.
The second quarter 2006 income before income taxes included a one-time $7.2 million ($4.4 million after-tax) foreign currency exchange gain related to the return of capital from Canada. The $7.2 million ($4.4 million after- tax) gain was recognized through a reduction of the currency translation adjustment section of accumulated other comprehensive income, which is part of stockholder's equity but not earnings. Excluding this 2006 foreign currency exchange gain, net income and earnings per share improved 18.7% and 18.3% respectively.
Year-to-date earnings per share were $2.49 compared to $2.94 for the first half of 2006. Year-to-date net income was $72.3 million compared to $84.5 million last year. The first quarter 2006 net income included a one-time net tax benefit of $24.7 million, or $0.86 per share, related to a change in corporate tax structuring. In addition, the second quarter of 2006 included the $7.2 million ($4.4 million after-tax) or $0.15 per share impact of the foreign currency exchange gain. After excluding the combined $1.01 impact of these two items from the 2006 year-to-date earnings per share of $2.94, the first half 2007 earnings per share increased 29.0%. Sales during the first six months of 2007 increased 15.5% to $803.3 million from $695.3 million in 2006.
Chairman, President and CEO Larry Powers said, "We are pleased to report second quarter increases in both sales and earnings. Our focus on higher margin product lines and the price increases helped us achieve higher sales and gross margins for the second quarter.
"Our commercial lighting business grew moderately from last year, but the growth was offset by weakness in the residential sector. In addition, results for the second quarter of 2006 include a spike in shipments in advance of a price increase during June 2006. Our core commercial business is participating in the commercial construction cyclical recovery that began earlier this year and should continue for the next year or two. However, we are seeing pockets of softness in the light commercial, suburban retail, and stock and flow parts of the business.
"We are pleased with the second quarter gross margin increase to 40.6% compared to 39.4% last year. The operating profit margin increased during the second quarter to 14.7% from 14.0%. These margin increases are primarily attributed to the effective price increases, increases in volume which leverage our fixed costs, and the benefit of mix from selling higher value added products. The operating profit margin improvement was partially offset by the impact of working capital currency translation losses totaling $2.3 million, which were recognized during the current year related to the strengthening of the Canadian dollar.
"We continue to see cumulative year-over-year cost increases in health care, aluminum, zinc and other materials. Key concerns in the near future are transportation and energy costs, and continued growth of the U.S. economy. We believe the commercial construction markets will grow in 2007; however, unexpected economic changes could alter expectations. Our short-term plan is to control expenses and provide outstanding service, while adding innovative new products."
Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Bill Ferko stated, "During the quarter cash flow from operations less plant and equipment investments provided $16.4 million compared to the same quarter last year when we generated $16.3 million. For the first six months of 2007 cash flow from operations less plant and equipment investments provided $916 thousand compared to the first six months of 2006 when we used $4.2 million. In addition, working capital (current assets less current liabilities) as of June 30, 2007 increased by $47.0 million to $230.1 million compared to July 1, 2006, but was significantly impacted by cash and debt balances. Working capital less cash and short-term debt was $245.5 million (15.0% of annualized sales) as of June 30, 2007, compared to working capital less cash and short- term debt of $238.3 million (16.3% of annualized sales) as of July 1, 2006.
"Our balance sheet remains very strong. We closed the second quarter with cash of $66.0 million and debt of $143.2 million, or a net debt position of $77.2 million, compared to second quarter 2006 net debt of $182.3 million, and $71.2 million at the end of 2006. Our net debt decreased by $105.1 million compared to prior year even though we recently paid approximately $40 million to acquire Strand, Carsonite, and Hanover Lantern over the past twelve months."
To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), the Company has presented a table of adjusted operating results, which includes non-GAAP financial information. This non-GAAP financial information is provided to enhance the user's overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance and prospects for the future. Specifically, management believes the non-GAAP financial information provides useful information to investors by excluding or adjusting certain items of operating results that were unusual and not indicative of the Company's core operating results. Management considers working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) an important measure of short-term liquidity and uses it to measure the investment in the business. In addition, management believes cash flow from operating activities less plant and equipment investments is an important measure that gives a more accurate picture of the Company's cash generation. This non-GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial information included in this news release has been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure.
