SHILOH INDUSTRIES REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2012 RESULTS


Valley City, OH, May 23, 2012 - Shiloh Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: SHLO) today reported financial results for the second quarter of its fiscal year ending October 31, 2012.

Second Quarter 2012 Highlights:
Sales revenue for the quarter increased by 18.8% to $162.8 million from last year's second quarter of $137.0 million.
Operating income for the quarter increased by 69.7% to $9.8 million from last year's second quarter of $5.8 million.
Net income of $0.35 per share diluted for the quarter compared to net income of $0.20 per share diluted in the prior year quarter.
Total debt at April 30, 2012 was $34.9 million resulting in a net debt to total capitalization ratio of 24.5%.
The Company declared and paid a special dividend of $0.50 per share during the quarter.

Sales for the second quarter ended April 30, 2012 were $162.8 million, an increase of 18.8% from $137.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2011. The North American car and light truck industry production volumes increased by 20.3% compared to the second quarter of the prior year, while the production of the traditional domestic manufacturers' production volumes increased by 8.2%. The Company's sales revenue increased due to the improved





vehicle production volumes, a favorable mix of vehicle platforms, the impact of new programs launched since the second quarter of the prior year and improvement in the heavy truck market compared to the prior year.
The Company reported operating income of $9.8 million or 6.0% of sales in the second quarter of fiscal year 2012 compared to $5.8 million or 4.2% of sales in the second quarter of fiscal year 2011. The improved sales volume, driven by increased production in the automotive and heavy truck industry, improved our operating leverage and our continued focus on improvements in our Manufacturing and Selling, General and Administrative costs helped the Company achieve these improved results.
Interest expense for the second quarter of the fiscal year was $0.5 million compared to $0.5 million in the prior year second quarter.
Net income for the second quarter of fiscal year 2012 was $5.9 million or $0.35 per share diluted compared to the second quarter of 2011 net income of $3.4 million or $0.20 per share diluted.

First Six Months 2012 Results:
Operating income for the first six months of fiscal year 2012 was $12.9 million compared to an operating income of $7.0 million in the first six months of fiscal year 2011. Net income for the first six months of fiscal year 2012 was $7.5 million or $0.44 per share diluted as compared to $4.0 million or $0.23 per share diluted in the prior year. The improvement reflects the increase in sales volume of $49.4 million, or 20.1%, to sales for the first six months of fiscal year 2012 of $295.2 million from $245.8 million in the prior year.

In commenting on the results of the second quarter of fiscal 2012, Theodore K. Zampetis, President and CEO, said “The production level of cars and light trucks in North America continues to improve at an encouraging pace from estimates late last year and along with new





program launches are resulting in strong sales growth. As a result of the Company's continued focus on improving our operating leverage through effective cost management and Six Sigma driven productivity and quality improvements, gross profit margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 improved to 10.1% compared to 8.5% in the second quarter of fiscal year 2011 from this increased production. During the quarter, the Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $0.50 per share and as a result of continued strong cash generation, we were able to maintain a net debt to total capitalization of 24.5% for the quarter.”
Mr. Zampetis concluded, “Moving forward for the remainder of fiscal 2012 and beyond, we are optimistic about the prospects of North American vehicle production levels eventually reaching and exceeding pre-crisis levels. We remain focused on improving our top and bottom lines through continued emphasis of our Innovative Product and Process Leadership, Operational Excellence and Customer Loyalty.”
