Exhibit 99.1
WHX Corporation Reports Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2010
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. August 10, 2010 -- WHX Corporation (NASDAQ (CM): WXCO); ("WHX" or the "Company") today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010.
The Company reported net income of $6.3 million on net sales of $180.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared with a net loss of $4.1 million on net sales of $137.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Basic and diluted net income per common share was $0.52 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared with a net loss of $0.34 per share in the same period of 2009.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, WHX reported net income of $3.6 million on net sales of $326.1 million, compared with a net loss of $15.5 million on net sales of $264.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Basic and diluted net income per common share was $0.29 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared with a net loss of $1.27 per share in the same period of 2009.
“The increase in demand as compared to 2009 for WHX’s products and services that we reported in the first quarter of 2010 continued in the second quarter, resulting in 31.8% quarter-over-quarter sales growth, and 23.3% sales growth on a year-to-date basis,” said Glen Kassan, Vice Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of WHX. “The increased sales volume across most operating business segments was driven by the improvement in the world-wide economy, with increased demand from the automotive industry, appliance, electrical, replacement roofing and the petrochemical and precision material markets.”
Mr. Kassan added: “The Company also reported higher gross margin and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales on a year-to-date basis, principally generating the $21.6 million improvement in income from continuing operations. We believe the improvement in gross margin and reduction in expenses as a percentage of sales were positively impacted by the continuing application of the WHX Business System and other cost improvement initiatives.”
On a segment basis, Precious Metal net sales rose by 54.4% for the six month period ended June 30, 2010 compared with the same period of 2009, while Arlon Coated Materials sales increased by 33.9% and Tubing segment sales were 29.5% higher. The Engineered Materials segment reported 14.5% higher sales compared to the first half of 2009 while Arlon Electronic Materials saw 16.5% higher sales. Kasco reported flat sales for the first half of 2010 on a comparable basis primarily due to weakness at its European operation.
“To capitalize on improved economic conditions WHX will seek new opportunities to gain market share in the markets we currently serve and expand into new markets to further increase demand,” Mr. Kassan stated. “At the same time we expect to continue to control and improve our cost structure to positively impact productivity and profitability.”
Other Financial Highlights:
Net income from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2010 was $6.6 million, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2009. The increase of $10.0 million in the net income from continuing operations was principally driven by the $43.6 million increase in sales, an improvement in gross margin from 24.7% to 26.8%, and a $2.4 million lower non-cash pension expense.
The Company generated Adjusted EBITDA of $21.8 million for the second quarter of 2010, as compared to $15.2 million for the same period in 2009, an increase of $6.6 million. See “Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measurements” below for the definition of Adjusted EBITDA.
Gross profit in the second quarter of 2010 increased to $48.4 million from $33.9 million for the same period of 2009. Gross profit margin also improved to 26.8% as compared to 24.7% during the same period of 2009, with improvement in most business segments. Greater absorption of fixed manufacturing costs due to a higher volume of production, more profitable product mix, and greater manufacturing efficiency were the primary drivers that contributed to improved gross profit margin.
Selling, general and administrative expenses of $31.0 million for the second quarter of 2010 were $7.5 million higher than the second quarter of 2009, reflecting higher variable costs, plus the reinstatement of certain employee compensation costs. The 2009 quarter reflected the suspension of these programs as well as a reduction in accruals related to incentive pay and certain non-qualified postretirement benefits of former employees. SG&A expenses as a percent of net sales were 17.1% in both the 2010 and 2009 periods.
The Company’s outstanding debt as of June 30, 2010 is $4.3 million lower than December 31, 2009, and $32.0 million lower than June 30, 2009, although more of its debt has been classified as a current liability on the Company’s balance sheet as of June 30, 2010 due to the maturity date. Specifically, because certain loans of its subsidiary, Handy & Harman (“H&H”), mature on June 30, 2011, an aggregate amount of $84.3 million of such debt and $17.7 million of related accrued interest have been included in current liabilities as of June 30, 2010. As of December 31, 2009, such debt and related accrued interest were classified as long-term liabilities since the maturity date exceeded twelve months from the balance sheet date. The Company is negotiating the refinancing of H&H’s debt, which the Company expects to complete prior to its maturity date.
Non-cash pension expense of $1.1 million was recorded in the second quarter of 2010, compared to $3.5 million in the second quarter of 2009. The non-cash pension expense in both years primarily represents actuarial loss amortization.
A non-cash asset impairment charge of $1.6 million was recorded during the second quarter of 2010 in connection with a restructuring plan to move Kasco’s Atlanta, Georgia operation to an existing facility in Mexico. The impairment represents the difference between the book value of the real estate and its fair market value as of June 30, 2010 as a result of the declining real estate market in the area. The Company recorded non-cash asset impairment charges totaling $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2009.
The discontinued operations segregated on the statement of operations are the Company’s Indiana Tube Denmark and Sumco Inc. subsidiaries. The two discontinued operations incurred aggregate costs of $0.3 million during the second quarter of 2010, principally for severance costs and costs associated with ownership of the buildings that were their former manufacturing facilities. In the second quarter of 2009, the two discontinued operations had $2.2 million of aggregate losses from their operations, partially offset by a $1.5 million net gain on the sale of equipment.
Segment Operating Results
Precious Metal
Net sales for the Precious Metal segment increased by $13.8 million, or 69.0%, to $33.8 million during the second quarter of 2010. The increased sales were primarily driven by higher volume in all of its markets, particularly sales to the automotive industry, appliance markets, electrical, and commercial construction. Higher sales were also driven by the impact of a 33% increase in the average market price of silver in the second quarter of 2010 ($18.36/troy oz.) as compared to the same period of 2009 ($13.78/troy oz).
Segment operating income increased by $2.6 million from $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2009 to $3.5 million during the second quarter of 2010 principally as a result of higher sales volume. In addition, during the second quarter of 2009, the Precious Metal segment had recorded restructuring charges of $0.4 million related to closure of a facility in New Hampshire and the relocation of the functions to its facility in Milwaukee.
Tubing
During the second quarter of 2010, Tubing segment sales increased by $8.0 million, or 44.0%, resulting primarily from higher sales to refrigeration, automotive, and HVAC markets serviced by the Specialty Tubing Group along with stronger demand from the petrochemical and precision material markets serviced by the Stainless Steel Tubing Group. The medical markets within the Stainless Steel Tubing were relatively flat comparing to the second quarter of 2009.
Segment operating income increased by $2.5 million on the higher sales, to $3.9 million during the second quarter of 2010 compared to $1.4 million for the same period of 2009, positively impacted by higher gross profit from the higher volume, plus an improvement in gross margin percentage as a result of higher absorption of manufacturing overhead.
Engineered Materials
Engineered Materials segment sales increased by $12.6 million, or 22.9%, during the second quarter of 2010 as compared to the same period of 2009 with improved market conditions within the commercial and residential replacement roofing markets. The increase in roofing fastener sales was primarily driven by private-label products sold within the flat roofing fasteners market and higher sales of branded fasteners to the home center market. There was also an improvement in sales of gas and electrical connectors used in residential construction.
Segment operating income was $8.9 million during the second quarter of 2010, compared to $6.5 million during the same period of 2009. The increase in operating income was principally the result of the higher sales volume, favorable product mix along with improved manufacturing efficiencies.
Arlon Electronic Materials Segment
Arlon Electronic Materials segment sales increased by $4.3 million, or 30.9%, during the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period of 2009. The sales increase was primarily due to increased sales of flex heater and coil insulation products for the general industrial market as a result of the economic rebound and increased sales of printed circuit board materials related to the telecommunications infrastructure in China.
Segment operating income increased $1.1 million to $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2010, principally due to higher sales volume, along with favorable manufacturing absorption and increased volume in the low cost China manufacturing facility.
Arlon Coated Materials Segment
Arlon Coated Materials segment sales increased by $5.2 million, or 35.1%, during the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period of 2009, principally due to increased sales in the North American and European graphics markets, as well as higher sales to the Asian shipping container market. Arlon CM’s sales of engineered coated products to the automotive, appliance and electronics markets increased as well, compared to the same period of 2009.
Segment operating income was $1.3 million during the second quarter of 2010 compared to a loss of $46 thousand during the same period of 2009. The improvement of $1.3 million in segment operating income was driven by both higher sales volume and cost savings implemented in 2009, along with improved manufacturing efficiencies as a result of the consolidation of two manufacturing facilities in 2009. Restructuring charges in 2009 of $0.2 million were recorded in the second quarter for the consolidation of the manufacturing facilities.
Kasco Replacement Parts and Services Segment
Kasco segment sales decreased by $0.3 million, or 2.2%, during the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period of 2009, due to weakness in its European operation. European sales were lower compared to the same period of 2009 primarily due to weak machinery demand from France. Operating loss for the Kasco segment was $1.3 million during the second quarter of 2010 compared to income of $0.8 million for same period of 2009.
During the second quarter, Kasco commenced a restructuring plan to move its Atlanta, Georgia operation to its facility in Matamoros, Mexico. In connection with this restructuring project, costs of $0.1 million were incurred in the second quarter of 2010, principally for employee compensation. In addition, Kasco also recorded a second quarter 2010 non-cash asset impairment charge of $1.6 million. The impairment represents the difference between the book value of the real estate and its fair market value as of June 30, 2010.

Note Regarding Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
The financial data contained in this press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including “Adjusted EBITDA”. The Company is presenting Adjusted EBITDA because it believes that it provides useful information to investors about WHX, its business and its financial condition. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss from continuing operations before the effects of realized and unrealized losses on derivatives, interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, LIFO liquidation gain, and pension expense or credit, and excludes certain non-recurring and non-cash items. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is one of the measures used by the Company’s Board of Directors and management to evaluate its business, including in internal management reporting, budgeting and forecasting processes, in comparing operating results across the business, as an internal profitability measure, as a component in evaluating the ability and the desirability of making capital expenditures and significant acquisitions, and as an element in determining executive compensation. Further, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of leverage capacity and the Company’s ability to service its debt.
However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income (loss) or cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities. Because Adjusted EBITDA is calculated before recurring cash charges including realized and unrealized losses on derivatives, interest expense and taxes, and is not adjusted for capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements of the business, it should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to invest in the growth of the business. There are a number of material limitations to the use of Adjusted EBITDA as an analytical tool, including the following:
|
·
|
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the Company’s net realized and unrealized losses and gains on derivatives and any LIFO liquidations of its precious metal inventory;
|
|
·
|
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the Company’s interest expense;
|
|
·
|
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the Company’s tax expense or the cash requirements to pay its taxes;
|
|
·
|
Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash expenses in the period recorded, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the cash requirements for such replacement;
|
|
·
|
Adjusted EBITDA does not include pension expense; and
|
|
·
|
Adjusted EBITDA does not include discontinued operations.
|
The Company compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP financial measures and by using Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental information. The Company believes that consideration of Adjusted EBITDA, together with a careful review of its GAAP financial measures, is the most informed method of analyzing WHX.
The Company reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to Net loss from continuing operations, and that reconciliation is set forth below. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Revenues and expenses are measured in accordance with the policies and procedures described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that reflect WHX’s current expectations and projections about its future results, performance, prospects and opportunities.

These forward-looking statements are based on information currently available to the Company and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors, that could cause its actual results, performance, prospects or opportunities in 2010 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. These factors include, without limitation, WHX’s need for additional financing and the terms and conditions of any financing that is consummated, customers’ acceptance of its new and existing products, the risk that the Company will not be able to compete successfully, and the possible volatility of the Company’s stock price and the potential fluctuation in its operating results. Although WHX believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable and achievable, such statements involve significant risks and uncertainties and no assurance can be given that the actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements.
