Generally, over time, we expect growth in paper production to be greater in Asia-Pacific than in
the more mature North American and Western European regions.


New Product Sales as a Percent of Revenue 
Meaningful progress continues on Xerium’s goal to increase its technological leadership.  Our
goal is to derive 60% of XRM’s sales revenue from products developed within the prior five
years that make a measurable improvement in customer performance, are defendable long
term and simultaneously reduce our operating costs.

Total Xerium Quarterly Sales and Gross Margin
$US 000’s
Q1 2012 net sales decreased 6.1% from Q1 2012.  Gross margins declined to 34.6% for Q1
2012 as compared to 37.7% for Q1 2011.  This decrease was primarily the result of 1)
unfavorable
absorption
of
production
costs
in
Q1
2012
related
to
reduced
European
market
demand, and 2) disproportionately higher sales of lower margin products in our rolls business.

S G & A and R&D Expense
In Q1 2012, SG&A  and R&D is $40.3M as compared to Q1 2011 of $40.0M.  The increase is primarily
the result of 1) the impending retirement of the CEO and the related accrual of a portion of an incentive
bonus and recruiting fees incurred and 2) expenses due to the relocation of an office facility in Japan. 
Partially
offsetting
these
items
were
favorable
currency
effects
of
$0.7M
and
a
gain
recognized
in
Q1
2012 as a result of the sale of land in Brazil.
