The Company also experienced sales growth in the T/A Fibers, Performance Materials and T/A Metals segments of 4.2%, 1.8% and 1.8% of consolidated net sales, respectively, as well as sales growth of 1.1% of consolidated net sales in the legacy businesses of the Technical Nonwovens segment.
|
•
|
Gross margin decreased 60 basis points to 24.4% in Q1 2017, compared to 25.0% in Q1 2016. The Technical Nonwovens segment negatively impacted consolidated gross margin by approximately 70 basis points, primarily related to mix and inventory step-up from acquisitions. The T/A Metals segment negatively impacted consolidated gross margin by approximately 60 basis points primarily related to operating inefficiencies, higher raw material commodity costs and severance expenses from reduction in force in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016. The T/A Fibers and Performance Materials segments favorably impacted consolidated gross margin by approximately 40 and 30 basis points, respectively, primarily as a result of favorable product mix.
|
•
|
Operating income was $
15.0 million

9.0%
, of net sales in Q1 2017, compared to $
13.7 million
, or

|
•
|
Effective tax rate was 17.6% in Q1 2017 compared to 33.1% in Q1 2016, with the improvement primarily related to tax benefits of $1.6 million from stock vesting, and a more favorable mix of income in lower taxed jurisdictions during the first quarter of 2017.

$11.7 million
, or
$0.68
