KEY TRONIC CORPORATION ANNOUNCES RESULTS
FOR THE FIRST QUARTER OF FISCAL YEAR 2015
Ayrshire Acquisition Contributing to Growth, New Customer Wins and Revenue Diversification;
Expecting Stronger Revenue Growth and Profitability in Second Quarter
Spokane Valley, WA— November 4, 2014 — Key Tronic Corporation (Nasdaq: KTCC), a provider of electronic manufacturing services (EMS), today announced its results for the three months ended September 27, 2014. The Company's actual results were in line with its previous guidance.
For the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, Key Tronic reported total revenue of $86.3 million, up 11% from $78.0 million in the same period of fiscal year 2014. Results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2015 include approximately $11 million in revenue contribution from CDR Manufacturing, Inc. (dba Ayrshire Electronics), which was acquired on September 3, 2014.
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company had an unfavorable product mix that caused higher material costs and had inefficiencies associated with the unusually fast ramping of production of a new product that resulted in higher than expected operating expenses. These items had an impact on earnings of approximately ($1.8) million or ($0.17) per share. In addition, transaction and integration costs related to the Ayrshire acquisition had an impact on earnings of approximately ($0.7) million or ($0.06) per share.
As a result, the Company reported its first quarterly net loss since 2004. The net loss for the first quarter of fiscal year 2015 was $(1.5) million or $(0.14) per share, compared to net income of $1.7 million or $0.15 per share for the same period of fiscal year 2014.
“As previously announced, our revenue and earnings were impacted by the large revenue reduction by a certain customer, an unfavorable product mix and unusually high operating costs in the first quarter,” said Craig Gates, President and Chief Executive Officer. “At the same time, we continue to see a robust pipeline of potential new business and have further diversified our future revenue base during the first quarter by winning new customer programs involving two different medical devices.
“We’re also very pleased to see our acquisition of Ayrshire making a significant contribution to our progress by expanding our printed circuit board assembly capabilities, our total revenue and our customer base with the addition of new multi-national companies. Including 104 Ayrshire customers and 61 Key Tronic customers, we were generating revenue from 165 distinct combined customers at the end of the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, up from 57 Key Tronic customers a year ago. During the second quarter, we’ve already had two Ayrshire customers award us additional business because of our combined capabilities and global logistics.
“We expect to see stronger revenue growth and a return to profitability in the second quarter of fiscal year 2015, as our new programs continue to grow and Ayrshire’s operations contribute revenue and profit for the full quarter. In coming periods, we expect our product mix and margins to gradually return to normal patterns. Although costs associated with new product launches will continue to impact operating efficiencies, we do not expect those costs to be at the same level as the first quarter.”
Business Outlook
For the second quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company expects to report revenue in the range of $105 million to $115 million, and earnings in the range of $0.08 to $0.12 per diluted share. These expected results include a full three month contribution from the recently acquired Ayrshire operations and assumes an effective tax rate of 35%.
