Exhibit 99.1
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
STONERIDGE REPORTS DOUBLE-DIGIT SALES GROWTH IN 2011 SECOND QUARTER
-- Company on Pace for Record Full-Year Sales --
WARREN, Ohio – August 4, 2011 – Stoneridge, Inc. (NYSE: SRI) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011.
Second quarter 2011 net sales were $190.4 million, an increase of $24.1 million, or 14.5%, compared with $166.3 million for the second quarter of 2010. The increase in the current quarter’s net sales was primarily due to higher volume in the commercial vehicle markets in both North America (60.8%) and Europe (37.4%).
Net income for the second quarter of 2011 was $3.4 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, compared with net income of $3.8 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2010. The second quarter net income was negatively affected by higher costs to meet customer demands, higher commodity costs and Mexican peso-denominated costs at our Mexican wiring and instrumentation locations and the start-up of a new facility in Mexico.
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company reported net sales of $383.5 million, a 22.0% increase from $314.3 million for the same period in 2010. Net income for the first six months was $6.3 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, up from $5.7 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the prior-year period.
As of June 30, 2011, Stoneridge’s consolidated cash position was $36.4 million, a decrease of $35.6 million from December 31, 2010, primarily due to increased working capital requirements resulting from the higher sales level and lower profitability in the Company’s wiring business.
Outlook
“Our end markets continued the robust pace that we experienced in the first quarter of 2011,” said John C. Corey, president and chief executive officer. “Though we continued to experience strong revenue growth in the second quarter, our gross profit conversion was at a rate below our potential. Strong demand from the North American commercial vehicle market impacted our operational performance in our North American wiring business. Results were also affected by higher commodity costs and the strengthening of the Mexican peso which affects Mexican peso-denominated costs. While progress was made in reducing the operational cost for premium freight, we continue to work on improving plant efficiency at our North American wiring locations to meet the demand increase. We look for further enhanced profitability in the remaining quarters of 2011. As we look ahead, we see positive underlying fundamentals in the markets we serve, such as commercial vehicle, agricultural/off highway and automotive, and we believe these trends will continue through 2012 and beyond. We reaffirm our previously announced guidance for full-year 2011 sales to be in the range of $750 million to $775 million.”
