GREENVILLE, S.C., June 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- JPS Industries, Inc. (OTC Pink Sheets: JPST) today announced results for the second quarter and six months ended April 29, 2006. For the second quarter of fiscal 2006, JPS reported a net income of $19,000 or $0.00 per diluted share, on sales of $39.7 million compared with a net income of $1.9 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, on sales of $40.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005. The second quarter of 2005 included a one time pre-tax benefit of $2.9 million associated with the elimination of certain post employment benefits. For the first six months of fiscal 2006, the Company reported a net income of $0.2 million or $0.03 per diluted share, on sales of $81.0 million compared with a net income of $2.0 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, on sales of $75.1 million for the same period in fiscal 2005. Michael L. Fulbright, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of JPS Industries, Inc. stated, "Our second quarter proved to be much more of a challenge than we anticipated earlier this year. That said, excluding the accounting gain of $2.9 million in last year's second quarter, we were essentially flat with prior year on the operating income line on a 2% revenue decline. The performance of our three businesses was quite different with results across the spectrum from very solid to fair. Our JPS Composite Materials unit delivered a strong performance, growing their revenue and earnings despite continued weakness in the North American electronics market. Stevens Roofing delivered improved results on the revenue and operating lines for the quarter and are much improved for the six months as compared to 2005. Stevens Urethane results for the quarter were reduced from the prior year as a result of slower market demand and delivery interruptions caused by a supplier quality problem." Commenting further, Mr. Fulbright stated, "While we expect higher interest rates, oil and energy related cost pressures, and a continuation of elevated raw material prices to be negative factors for the industrial products economic picture in the second half, we anticipate our performance will show improvement over first half results."
