AAON REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

TULSA, OK, August 6, 2015 - AAON, Inc. (NASDAQ-AAON) today announced its operating results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2015.

In the quarter, net sales were $90.3 million, down 2.2% from $92.3 million in 2014. Net income was $11.1 million, down 2.1% from $11.4 million in the same period a year ago. Net sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 were $167.0 million, down 1.0% from $168.7 million in 2014. Net income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 was $19.5 million, down 7.8% from $21.2 million in 2014.

Earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of 2015 held constant at $0.20, compared to the same period the previous year, based upon 54.7 million and 55.6 million shares outstanding at June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Earnings per diluted share for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 were $0.36, down 5.3% from $0.38 in 2014, based upon 54.7 million and 55.6 million shares outstanding at June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Norman H. Asbjornson, President and CEO, stated, “As previously reported, we expected a better quarter with increases in our sales. Market data suggests there is a fall-off in replacement sales and that new construction may not be as strong as previously thought. However, we continue to maintain our gross profit percentage through lower raw material costs and increased productivity. Our gross profit as a percent of sales remained relatively steady for the quarter at 30.0% compared to 30.2% a year ago and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 at 29.3% compared to 29.5% in the same period a year ago. We also have seen decreases in our SG&A expense as a percent of sales of 1.3% (from 11.5% to 10.2%) for the quarter and 0.3% (from 10.8% to 10.5%) for the six-month period.”

Mr. Asbjornson continued, “The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2015, continues to be very strong, showing a current ratio of 3.2:1 (including cash and short-term investments totaling $49.9 million), plus long-term marketable investments of $0.6 million, and we remain debt-free."

Mr. Asbjornson concluded, "Nonetheless, we have made changes to strengthen our organization by hiring three (75% increase) new regional sales managers who we expect will make a positive impact on the performance of our representatives as well as replacing some representatives with new firms. In addition, we are about to introduce a number of new products within the next few months. These steps should aid in stimulating new business in the final half of this year and particularly in 2016."

The Company will host a conference call today at 4:15 P.M. Eastern Time to discuss the second quarter results. To participate, call 1-888-241-0551 (code 86989685); or, for rebroadcast, call 1-855-859-2056 (code 86989685).

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), additional non-GAAP financial measures are provided and reconciled in the following tables. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP financial measures, provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze the Company’s business trends and operating performance.
EBITDAX
EBITDAX (as defined below) is presented herein and reconciled from the GAAP measure of net income because of its wide acceptance by the investment community as a financial indicator of a company's ability to internally fund operations.
The Company defines EBITDAX as net income, plus (1) depreciation, (2) amortization of bond premiums, (3) share-based compensation, (4) interest (income) expense and (5) income tax expense. EBITDAX is not a measure of net income or cash flows as determined by GAAP.
The Company’s EBITDAX measure provides additional information which may be used to better understand the Company’s operations. EBITDAX is one of several metrics that the Company uses as a supplemental financial measurement in the evaluation of its business and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income, as an indicator of operating performance. Certain items excluded from EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance. EBITDAX, as used by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The Company believes that EBITDAX is a widely followed measure of operating performance and is one of many metrics used by the Company’s management team and by other users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (GAAP) to EBITDAX (non-GAAP) for the periods indicated:

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share
The Company defines Adjusted Net Income and the related per share amount as (1) net income, plus (2) non-recurring donations, less (3) the impact on profit sharing expense from the non-recurring donations and (4) the impact on income tax expense from the non-recurring donations. These measures provide additional information which may be used to better understand the Company’s operations.
The following tables provide a reconciliation of net income and earnings per share-diluted (GAAP) to adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share-diluted (non-GAAP) for the periods indicated:
