Pemco Aviation Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:PAGI), a leading
provider of aircraft maintenance and modification services, today
announced the operating results of its second quarter and six months
ended June 30, 2006. Net income for the second quarter of 2006 was
$0.45 million ($0.10 per share) compared to a net loss for the second
quarter of 2005 of $0.37 million ($0.09 per share). Revenue for the
second quarter of 2006 was $49.6 million versus revenue of $38.6
million in the second quarter of 2005, an increase of 28.5%. Net
income for the first six months of 2006 was $0.52 million ($0.12 per
share) compared with net income of $0.79 million ($0.18 per share) in
the first two quarters of 2005. Revenue for the six months ended June
30, 2006 was $87.3 million, compared to $82.6 million in the six
months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of 5.7%. The Company's results
of operations was impacted by a $0.36 million positive adjustment in a
warranty reserve due to additional regulatory approvals issued during
the second quarter of 2006 and the reversal of $0.64 million of a
$1.50 million provision for accounts receivable recorded during the
third quarter of 2005 to reflect the net realizable value of the
receivable based on offers to purchase the receivable recently
received by the Company. Furthermore, in the second quarter of 2005,
the Company recorded a gain of $0.65 million on the assignment of a
lease located at the St. Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport.
Ronald Aramini, Pemco's President and CEO, stated "Pemco's second
quarter results reflect improvement in gross profit and operating
income in all three business segments. Revenue growth accelerated in
the second quarter due to increased deliveries from several new
programs added over the past year. The U.S. Navy P-3 Orion maritime
patrol and antisubmarine warfare aircraft program at our Birmingham,
Alabama facility began delivering aircraft in the second quarter. At
our Dothan, Alabama facility, we delivered the first-ever conversion
of B737-400 passenger aircraft to a freighter aircraft for Alaska
Airlines. The second Alaska Airlines conversion is scheduled for
delivery in the third quarter of 2006 and work on the third Alaska
conversion has already begun. During the first quarter of 2006, Dothan
teamed with Taikoo (Xiamen) Aircraft Engineering Co. Ltd. ("TAECO") in
Mainland China on a passenger to freighter conversion which delivered
on August 9, 2006. Work has already begun on an additional conversion
with TAECO in 2006 and increased conversion deliveries are expected in
2006 and 2007. Revenue at the Dothan, Alabama facility also benefited
from the maintenance work for Southwest Airlines which began earlier
in 2006. All of these new programs will play a key role in the growth
and diversification of Pemco. However, winning the KC-135 contract for
2008 and after is critical for our Company."
Michael E. Tennenbaum, Pemco's Chairman, said "The KC-135 business
has been the key to Pemco's past as it is to its future. Our skilled
and experienced workforce delivers the planes with outstanding speed
and quality. Also, we are certain that our costs are lower than any
other vendor's. The KC-135 is vital to our nation's fighting
capability, and preserving Pemco's capacity to maintain the aircraft
is prudent policy. All Pemco stakeholders - employees, shareholders,
civic leaders - must pull together to assure that Pemco will do this
work after 2007."
For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company violated a
debt covenant requiring the Company to achieve income before income
taxes of $1.0 million. The default of the debt covenant as of June 30,
2006 has not been waived. In addition, our lenders have not extended
the October 15, 2006 Revolving Credit Facility maturity date. As a
result, our lenders may request payment of all debts outstanding at
any time, but the Company is actively involved in working with our
lenders on a waiver and an extension of the maturity date. The Company
also has contacted other lenders about obtaining additional financing.
We will continue to monitor our financial results and liquidity
position and, if necessary, implement further reductions in expenses
and capital expenditures.

Government Services Segment ("GSS") revenue increased $5.4 million
due to the delivery of two additional KC-135 aircraft pursuant to a
contract with the U.S. Air Force and the delivery of one P-3 aircraft
under a contract with the U.S. Navy, offset by a reduction in revenue
under a contract with the U.S. Coast Guard. GSS delivered one
additional aircraft under the KC-135 Programmed Depot Maintenance
("PDM") in the second quarter of 2006 compared to the second quarter
of 2005, and one additional KC-135 unscheduled depot level maintenance
("UDLM") in the second quarter of 2006, resulting in a revenue
increase of $7.0 million. The first P-3 aircraft for the U.S. Navy was
delivered in the second quarter of 2006 and generated additional
revenue of $1.0 million. The end of the Coast Guard contract resulted
in a revenue decrease of $3.0 million versus the second quarter of
2005. In addition, non-routine services performed under the C-130 U.S.
Air Force UDLM contract generated an additional $0.4 million of
revenue during the second quarter of 2006.
Commercial Services Segment ("CSS") revenue for the quarter ended
June 30, 2006 increased approximately 32%, or $5.0 million, from the
quarter ended June 30, 2005. For the three-month period ended June 30,
2006, delivery of two cargo conversions generated $6.3 million of
additional revenue whereas the second quarter of 2005 included no
revenue from cargo conversions. Offsetting the increase in cargo
conversion revenue was a decrease in maintenance, repair and overhaul
("MRO") revenue of $1.3 million, or 8%, for the three months ended
June 30, 2006, when compared to the second quarter of 2005.
Manufacturing and Components Segment ("MCS") revenue for the three
months ended June 30, 2006 was consistent with that of the same
three-month period of 2005. Revenue at Pemco Engineers, relating to
sales of high precision machined parts and other aircraft components,
remained relatively flat during the second quarter of 2006, compared
to the second quarter of 2005. Revenue at Space Vector related to both
the government launch vehicle program and related engineering design
services also remained flat during the second quarter of 2006, as
compared to the same period of 2005.
Consolidated cost of sales increased $9.3 million, or 27.7%, to
$43.0 million during the second quarter of 2006, as a result of the
higher revenue base. As a percentage of revenue, quarter-to-date cost
of sales at June 30, 2006 was 86.5%, compared to 87.1% during the
second quarter of 2005. Cost of sales at GSS decreased from 91.6% of
revenue to 90.5% of revenue, primarily due to losses recorded on the
U.S. Coast Guard contract during the second quarter of 2005. Cost of
sales at CSS decreased from 85.5% of revenue to 85.0% of revenue
primarily due to better profit margins on cargo conversion deliveries
and a $0.4 million positive adjustment in the estimated cost to settle
a claim, due to additional regulatory approval issued during the
second quarter of 2006. Cost of sales at MCS decreased slightly from
$3.2 million to $3.1 million.
Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A") expenses remained
consistent at $5.7 million for each of the second quarters of 2006 and
2005. Expense reductions during the second quarter of 2006 were offset
by additional stock-based compensation expenses during the second
quarter.
During the second quarter of 2006, the Company reversed $0.6
million of a $1.5 million provision for accounts receivable recorded
during the third quarter of 2005 related to the Chapter 11 bankruptcy
filing by the Company's largest commercial customer. The provision for
accounts receivable was adjusted to reflect the net realizable value
of the receivables based on purchase offers from unrelated third
parties.
In the second quarter of 2005, the Company recorded a gain of
$0.65 million on the assignment of a lease located at the St.
Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport. Interest expense
increased $0.4 million due to increases in the total debt outstanding
and increases in variable interest rates on debt compared to the
second quarter of 2005.

GSS revenue increased $6.0 million for the six-month period ended
June 30, 2006 versus the six-month period ended June 30, 2005. Revenue
under the KC-135 PDM contract increased $5.4 million in 2006 compared
to 2005 due to additional material sales of $2.0 million and an
increase in revenue from non-routine services due to a reduction in
flow days for aircraft under this program. The P-3 aircraft program,
which began in the fourth quarter of 2005, generated additional
revenue of $1.2 million in the first six months of 2006. The first P-3
aircraft for the U.S. Navy was delivered in the second quarter of
2006. The termination of the Coast Guard contract resulted in a
revenue decrease of $0.9 million versus the first six months of 2005
due to lower non-routine services performed during 2006.
CSS revenue decreased $2.5 million in 2006 as compared to the
first six months of 2005. The decrease was caused by a reduction in
MRO revenues during the first six months of 2006. MRO revenue for the
six months ended June 30, 2006 decreased $6.5 million. Revenue from
the largest customer of CSS decreased $12.0 million, which was
partially offset by additional revenue from new customers of
approximately $5.5 million. The delivery of one additional cargo
conversion during 2006, as compared to 2005, produced an additional
$3.4 million in revenue. The decreases were further offset by $0.8
million of revenue related to settlement of the H3 Request for
Equitable Adjustment ("REA") claim described in Note 10 of the
Financial Statements included in the Company's Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2006.
Revenue at MCS increased 3.5% in the first half of 2006, versus
the first half of 2005. Pemco Engineer's revenue decreased $0.4
million as shipments of aircraft cargo system parts were lower when
compared to the first six months of 2005. Revenues at Space Vector
increased $0.5 million due to billing adjustments on U.S. government
launch vehicle programs.
Consolidated cost of sales increased $4.3 million to $73.8 million
during the six-month period ended June 30, 2006, as a result of the
higher revenue base. As a percentage of revenue, cost of sales for the
first six months of 2006 was 84.5%, compared to 84.1% during 2005.
Cost of sales at GSS increased from 86.7% of revenue to 88.7% of
revenue, primarily due to losses recorded on the U.S. Navy P-3
contract of $0.3 million and losses recorded for non-routine services
performed under C-130 U.S. Air Force UDLM contract of $0.8 million.
Cost of sales at CSS decreased from 84.7% of revenue to 82.0% of
revenue, primarily due to better profit margins on cargo conversion
deliveries and a $0.4 million positive adjustment in the estimated
cost to settle a claim due to additional regulatory guidance issued
during the second quarter of 2006. Cost of sales at MCS decreased from
73.7% of revenue to 71.3% of revenue primarily due to an increase in
revenue at Space Vector and a decrease in revenue at Pemco Engineers.
Historically, profit margins have been greater at Space Vector than at
Pemco Engineers.
SG&A expenses increased $0.2 million, or 2.0%, to $11.8 million in
2006. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses decreased to 13.5% in
2006 from 14.0% in 2005 primarily as a result of increased revenue and
expense controls implemented, and offset by stock-based compensation
expense recorded in 2006.
During the second quarter of 2006, the Company reversed $0.6
million of a $1.5 million provision for accounts receivable recorded
during the third quarter of 2005 related to the Chapter 11 bankruptcy
filing by the Company's largest commercial customer. The provision for
accounts receivable was adjusted to reflect the net realizable value
of the receivables based on purchase offers from unrelated third
parties.
In the second quarter of 2005, the Company recorded a gain of
$0.65 million on the assignment of a lease located at the St.
Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport. Interest expense
increased $0.6 million due to increases in the total debt outstanding
and increases in variable interest rates on debt compared to the
second quarter of 2005.
(a) Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization. Pemco presents EBITDA because its management uses
the measure to evaluate the Company's performance and to allocate
resources. In addition, EBITDA has been used as one of the components
to calculate the Company's debt covenants. Pemco believes EBITDA is a
also measure of performance used by some commercial banks, investment
banks, investors, analysts and others to make informed investment
decisions. EBITDA is an indicator of cash generated to service debt
and fund capital expenditures. EBITDA is not a measure of financial
performance under generally accepted accounting principles and should
not be considered as a substitute for or superior to other measures of
financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA as
presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures
reported by other companies. See the reconciliation of net income to
EBITDA at the end of this release.
