Global Power Equipment Group Inc.

Announces Second Quarter 2011 Financial Results

IRVING, Texas, August 15, 2011- Global Power Equipment Group Inc. (NASDAQ: GLPW) (“Global Power” or the “Company”) today announced its unaudited financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. These results are available on the Company’s website at www.globalpower.com.

For the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company reported revenues of $149.5 million and income from continuing operations of $49.6 million, or $2.92 per diluted common share, including a non-recurring, non-cash benefit from the release of income tax valuation allowances of $40.1 million or $2.36 per diluted common share. Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2010 were $124.7 million and income from continuing operations was $8.5 million, or $0.52 per diluted share. Services Division revenue as a percentage of consolidated revenue was 56% for the second quarter 2011, down from 69% for the same period in 2010.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company reported revenues of $261.1 million and income from continuing operations of $50.5 million, or $2.99 per diluted common share, which included $40.1 million, or $2.37 per diluted share, of benefit from the release of the income tax valuation allowance. Revenues for the prior period in 2010 were $281.8 million and income from continuing operations was $18.6 million, or $1.15 per diluted common share.

“Our second quarter 2011 financial results were positively impacted by the timing of $20 million of contracts in our Products Division that were ready to ship in the first quarter but not released by customers for shipment until the second quarter which brought year-to-date results in alignment with internal expectations,” said David Keller, President and CEO of Global Power. “We are pleased to have announced the sale of Deltak’s operating assets and believe our shareholders will benefit from a focused allocation of resources in our core businesses. We have updated the full year 2011 directional guidance by segment in the most recent investor presentation on our website, and see increasing momentum in the OEM gas turbine cycle that is expected to benefit our Products Division in 2012.”

The Company generated EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization) from continuing operations of $11.5 million and $13.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. EBITDA from continuing operations was $10.8 million and $25.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of our income from continuing operations to EBITDA is included in the schedules attached to this press release.


At quarter end, the Company’s backlog was $352 million, an increase of $2 million from year end levels but down $33 million from March 31, 2011. The decrease in backlog from the first quarter was primarily due to the timing of orders shipped in the Products Division. Products comprised 44% of backlog at quarter end, up from 34% at year end. Backlog is not a measure defined by GAAP, and our methodology for determining backlog may vary from the methodology used by other companies in determining their backlog amounts. Backlog may not be indicative of future operating results and projects in our backlog may be cancelled, modified or otherwise altered by our customers.

As of June 30, 2011, the Company had unrestricted cash of $53.6 million and $25 million of unused capacity under its revolving credit facility.

The Company will host a conference call on Tuesday, August 16, 2011 at 10:30 a.m. Central Time (11:30 a.m. Eastern Time) to discuss these results. The call can be accessed live over the telephone by dialing (877) 407-9039, or for international callers, (201) 689-8470.

EBITDA from continuing operations represents income from continuing operations adjusted for income taxes, interest, and depreciation and amortization. The Company believes EBITDA is an important supplemental measure of operating performance and uses it to assess performance and inform operating decisions. However EBITDA is not a GAAP financial measure. The Company’s calculation of EBITDA should not be used as a substitute for GAAP measures of performance, including net cash provided by operations, operating income and net income. The Company’s method of calculating EBITDA may vary substantially from the methods used by other companies and investors are cautioned not to rely unduly on it.
