X-Rite, Incorporated (NASDAQ:XRIT) today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended July 2, 2011.
Highlights for the quarter:
The Company reported a net sales increase of $7.5 million, or 13.1 percent, for the second quarter 2011 as compared to the second quarter 2010. All major lines of business reported growth in the quarter. The Industrial, Support Services, and Standards product lines led the quarter with 19.4, 17.5 and 16.5 percent growth over the prior year quarter results, respectively. The strong growth by the Industrial product line was supported by the increasing success of the Company’s multi-angle product portfolio. The Standards product line growth was driven by the recently released Pantone FASHION + HOME system extension. On a regional basis, after adjusting for foreign exchange, the strongest operational growth in the quarter was in Asia Pacific, followed by growth in Europe and a nominal increase in the Americas. Excluding the impact of positive changes in foreign exchange rates due to a weakening U.S. Dollar, net sales increased by $3.9 million or 6.8 percent on a quarter over quarter basis.
Thomas J. Vacchiano Jr., the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The Company continues to report healthy year over year growth. It is particularly satisfying to see investments for growth in new products and an expanding Asia Pacific presence yield such positive results.”
Second quarter 2011 operating income of $10.8 million reflected an increase of $2.6 million, or 30.9 percent, compared to the second quarter 2010 operating income of $8.2 million. The positive foreign exchange impact in net sales is largely offset by an adverse exchange impact on our foreign manufacturing and operating costs. Operating income as a percent of net sales improved to 16.7 percent for the second quarter 2011, compared to 14.4 percent for the second quarter 2010. The improved operating income and operating margin is a reflection in part of the Company’s ability to maintain its gross margin performance while managing its cost structure.
Net income for the second quarter 2011 increased by $6.6 million to $8.5 million from $1.9 million for the second quarter 2010. The improved operating results were additionally benefited by a $5.4 million reduction in interest expense primarily as a result of the Company’s debt refinancing completed at the end of the first quarter 2011. Second quarter 2011 fully diluted earnings of $0.10 per share increased by $0.08 per share compared to earnings of $0.02 per share for the second quarter 2010.
For the six months ended July 2, 2011, the Company generated $13.2 million of cash flows before financing and for the second quarter 2011 the Company made $13.2 million in debt payments. Rajesh K. Shah, X-Rite’s Chief Financial Officer, commented, “Our healthy operating results are now coupled with substantially lower interest expense and that provides us very strong cash generation from operating activities. This strong cash flow enables us to continue to invest for strategic growth and also rapidly achieve our debt reduction goals."
Vacchiano closed by saying, “X-Rite’s overall financial performance in the second quarter demonstrated many positives. As we start the third quarter, we are seeing a slowdown in the global economic recovery with significant continuing uncertainty, particularly in the short term. In spite of this adverse environment, for the third quarter 2011 we are forecasting sales growth in the single digits on a year over year basis.”

As required by the Securities and Exchange Commission regulation G, the following tables contain information regarding the non-GAAP adjustments used by the Company in the presentation of its financial results:
X-Rite, Incorporated Reconciliation of Reported Financial Results to Adjusted EBITDA as defined by Credit Agreements* (unaudited) (in millions) Three Months Ended Six Months Ended July 2, July 3, July 2, July 3, 2011 2010 ** 2011 2010 ** Net income (loss) $ 8.5 $ 1.9 $ (2.5 ) $ (0.2 ) EBITDA Adjustments: Depreciation 1.6 1.5 3.2 3.1 Amortization 4.1 4.1 8.2 8.0 Restructuring and other related costs - 0.2 - 1.9 Share-based compensation 0.8 0.9 1.1 1.7 Net interest expense and debt refinancing and related charges 2.4 7.8 21.8 15.4 Currency loss (gain) 0.3 (1.9 ) 1.0 (2.8 ) Income tax (benefit) expense (0.4 ) 0.5 (0.4 ) 0.4 (Gain) loss on sale of assets - (0.1 ) (0.1 ) 0.4 8.8 13.0 34.8 28.1 Adjusted EBITDA based on credit agreement 17.3 14.9 32.3 27.9 Net Sales 64.6 57.1 122.1 108.3 Adjusted EBITDA Margin(1) 26.8 % 26.1 % 26.4 % 25.8 %(1) Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA into Net Sales. These calculations were performed on the actual results and not rounded figures.
** Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended July 3, 2010 as shown is based on the 2008 credit agreement calculation. Modifications to this agreement in the Company's 2011 credit agreement allow for an adjustment for excess bonus payments over target not to exceed $2.6 million. This adjustment to the credit agreement resulted in no change to the Company's Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended July 3, 2010.
X-Rite, Incorporated Reconciliation of reported losses and diluted per share to adjusted earnings and adjusted diluted earnings per share* As Reported As Adjusted Six Months Ended Debt Refinancing and Six Months Ended July 2, 2011 Related Charges(b) July 2, 2011 Net Income (Loss) $ (2.5 ) $ 13.8 $ 11.3 Diluted Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share $ (0.03 ) $ 0.16 $ 0.13(b) These adjustments present the Company's results of operations excluding refinancing and related charges. The adjusted financial results are used by management, and allow investors, to evaluate the operating performance of the Company on a comparable basis.
* To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ('GAAP'), the Company presents the non-GAAP financial measures, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, as measures of our core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before depreciation, amortization, restructuring and other related costs, share-based compensation expense, net interest expense, currency loss (gain), income tax benefit, (gain) loss on sale of assets and other special items, which adjustments represent significant items that are not part of our core operations. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin as a measure of liquidity and its ability to meet its debt service and because its senior credit facility uses Adjusted EBITDA to measure the Company’s compliance with certain covenants. In addition, the Company presents Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share to exclude the effects of the debt refinancing and related charges. These adjustments present the Company's results of operations excluding the debt refinancing and related charges. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors to increase comparability to the prior period by adjusting for certain items that may not be indicative of core operating measures. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP measures (or similarly titled measures) differently. Management does not, nor should investors, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitution for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of all non-GAAP measures included in this press release, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, are found in the financial tables above.
