Consolidated net sales for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 were $480.6 million, compared to consolidated net sales of $464.2 million during the comparable period in 2011. Earnings from continuing operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 were $19.2 million or 83 cents per diluted share, compared to $20.7 million or 90 cents per diluted share in the comparable period of 2011. Excluding non-operational gains and losses identified on the attached reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP measures, earnings from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $19 million or 82 cents per diluted share and $18.5 million or 80 cents per diluted share, respectively.
Commenting on the results, Mr. Lawrence I. Sills, Standard Motor Products’ Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are obviously pleased with our second quarter results. Aided by our two most recent acquisitions—Forecast Trading and CompressorWorks—sales were 10.2% ahead of the second quarter of 2011, and earnings per share, excluding non-operational items, were 20.4% ahead. Excluding the acquisitions, sales were higher by 1.6% in Engine Management and essentially flat in Temperature Control compared to 2011.
“For the six months, sales were up 3.5%, inclusive of acquisitions, but down 4%, excluding acquisitions. As we have previously stated, sales in the first quarter of 2011 benefited from substantial pipeline orders, and in addition we experienced the loss of certain air conditioning product groups from a major account. The majority of these unfavorable events occurred in the first half of the year allowing more comparable comparisons over the second half of the year.
“The integration of Forecast Trading and CompressorWorks is proceeding well. We have maintained all the major accounts from both companies; sales are achieving expectations; and we have begun work to generate savings in product cost and operating expenses as we integrate the operations. We will achieve some of the savings in 2012, but the bulk of the savings will be reflected in 2013.
“As we have been seeing, it has been a warm summer so far, especially in the center of the country. Temperature Control sales were strong in June and have continued strong into July.
“Cash flow from operations continues to be strong. Our total debt at June 30, 2012 was roughly $97 million, inclusive of approximately $110 million spending for three acquisitions over the past 14 months and mid-year working capital needs for our Temperature Control seasonal business. By year-end, we expect debt levels to decrease from current levels and achieve a Debt:EBITDA ratio of better than 1:1.
“Unfortunately, we have one piece of sad news to report. Mr. Robert Gerrity, an esteemed and valued Board member and Chairman of our Compensation and Management Development Committee, passed away on July 3. He was an excellent contributor to our Company and will be sorely missed. Mr. Roger Widmann, a Board member since May 2005, has been selected to take over the Chairmanship of this important committee. We have also begun the selection process for a new Board member.”
The Board of Directors has approved payment of a quarterly dividend of nine cents per share on the common stock outstanding. The dividend will be paid on September 4, 2012 to stockholders of record on August 16, 2012.
