NN, Inc. (NASDAQ: NNBR) yesterday reported its financial results for the period ended June 30, 2012. Net sales for the second quarter of 2012 decreased $17.1 million, or 14.7% to $98.8 million, compared to net sales of $115.9 million for the second quarter of 2011. Approximately $16.3 million of this decrease was due to lower demand for Company’s products in their Metal Bearing Components and Plastic and Rubber Components segments, mainly due to European automotive end markets. This lower demand was partially offset by increased sales volume of $3.1 million from new multi-year programs in our Precision Metal Components segment and price increases and raw material inflation pass through of $0.8 million. The negative impact of foreign currency exchange accounted for another $4.7 million of the decrease. Net income for the second quarter of 2012 of $7.0 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, compares to $5.8 million, or $0.34 per diluted share for the same period last year. Net income from normal operations in the second quarter of 2012 was $5.9 million, or $0.35 per diluted share compared to net income from normal operations of $6.1 million, or $0.36 per diluted share for the same period in 2011. Net income from normal operations for the second quarter of 2012 excludes the recording of after-tax foreign currency gains on intercompany loans of $1.1 million, or $0.06 per diluted share. Net income from normal operations for the second quarter of 2011 excludes the recording of foreign exchange losses on intercompany losses of approximately $0.3 million, or $0.02 per diluted share. Net sales for the first six months of 2012 decreased $23.9 million, or 10.5% to $203.3 million, compared to net sales of $227.2 million for the first six months of 2011. Approximately $27.6 million, of the decrease was attributable to lower demand for the Company’s products in the Metal Bearing Components and Plastic and Rubber Components segments, mainly due to European automotive end markets. This lower demand was partially offset by increased sales volume of $7.5 million from new multi-year programs in our Precision Metal Components segment and raw material inflation pass through, price increases and favorable mix of $2.6 million. The negative impact of foreign currency exchange accounted for another $6.3 million of the decrease. Net income for the first six months of 2012 was $12.9 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, compared to net income of $11.3 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, for the comparable period last year. Net income from normal operations in the first six months of 2012 was $12.6 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, compared to net income from normal operations in the first six months of 2011 of $11.6 million, or $0.69 per diluted share for the same period last year. Net income from normal operations for the first six months of 2012 excludes the recording of after-tax foreign currency gains on intercompany loans of $0.4 million, or $0.02 per diluted share. Net income from normal operations for the first six months of 2011 excluded approximately $1.2 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, in foreign currency exchange losses on inter-company loans and an after-tax gain from deconsolidation of bankrupt subsidiary of $0.8 million, or $0.05 per diluted share. Net income and fully diluted earnings per share from normal operations were at record levels for the first six months of 2012. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold decreased in the second quarter to 78.8% as compared to 81.7% for last year’s second quarter. Cost of products sold for the first six months of this year were 79.1% as compared to 81.4% for the same period last year. The decrease in cost of products sold as a percentage of sales were attributable to improved levels of profitability at Whirlaway and operational cost improvements driven by our Level 3 programs in each of the global manufacturing facilities. Debt, net of cash, was $69.6 million at June 30, 2012, a decrease of $4.0 million over the December 31, 2011 amount of $73.6 million. As of June 30, 2012, approximately $9.1 million, or 46% of the planned capital budget of $20.0 million for the year was spent. Roderick R. Baty, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer commented, “Even though the prevailing weak economic conditions in Europe and Asia continued to negatively impact demand, our improved cost structure and operating performance allowed us to significantly improve margins in the second quarter and for the first half of 2012. Additionally, our Whirlaway operation has continued to show improvement in both sales and profitability over the prior year. ” Mr. Baty concluded, “Although our consolidated year-to-date revenues were down 7.7% in local currencies compared to the same period in 2011, the overall demand outlook was mixed. We experienced good levels of demand in North America, offset by reductions in Europe and Asia. We expect this trend to continue into the second half of the year. Given the uncertainty and lack of visibility, we are lowering the range of our revenue guidance from $415 million to $425 million to $390 million to $400 million. However, due to our continuing companywide operational cost improvements, we still expect solid full year improvements in margins, net income and earnings per share in 2012 as compared to 2011.” NN, Inc. manufacturers and supplies high precision metal bearing components, industrial plastic and rubber products and precision metal components to a variety of markets on a global basis.
