WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., Nov. 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Handy & Harman Ltd. (NASDAQ(CM): HNH); ("HNH" or the "Company") today reported financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2011.
HNH reported net income of $7.0 million on net sales of $178.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared with net income of $6.0 million on net sales of $150.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. Basic and diluted net income per common share was $0.55 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared with $0.49 per share in the same period of 2010. Net income for the 2011 quarter includes an unrealized non-cash $1.7 million loss on embedded derivatives related to the Company's subordinated notes and warrants.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, HNH reported net income of $28.6 million on net sales of $518.8 million, compared with net income of $9.6 million on net sales of $434.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 includes an unrealized non-cash $0.6 million gain on embedded derivatives related to the Company's subordinated notes and warrants, and a $6.0 million gain on disposal of assets, net of tax, from discontinued operations. Basic and diluted net income per common share was $2.28 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared with $0.79 per share in the same period of 2010.
"Our sales continued to increase in the third quarter of 2011, with $27.1 million, or 18.0%, higher sales for the quarter as compared to the third quarter of 2010. On a year-to-date basis, our sales rose by $84.8 million, or 19.5%, with all of our segments experiencing higher net sales for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 201l versus the same periods in 2010. We also reported higher gross profit, reduced selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales and increased net income in the third quarter of 2011 when compared to the third quarter of 2010 as well as for the year-to-date 2011 versus 2010," stated Glen Kassan, Vice Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of HNH.
The Company generated Adjusted EBITDA of $22.6 million for the third quarter of 2011, as compared to $19.8 million for the same period in 2010, an increase of $2.8 million, or 14.1%. For the year-to-date period of 2011, Adjusted EBITDA was $62.3 million as compared to $50.7 million for the nine month period of 2010, an increase of $11.6 million, or 22.9%. See "Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measurements" below for the definition of Adjusted EBITDA.
Financial Highlights:
Demand for the Company's products and services increased in 2011 as compared to 2010 resulting in 18.0% quarter-over-prior year quarter net sales growth. The growth in net sales was due principally to higher silver prices during the third quarter of 2011 and increased units sold. Income from continuing operations increased $1.7 million to $16.4 million during the third quarter of 2011 compared to $14.7 million for the same period of 2010. Improved income from continuing operations was principally a result of $27.1 million higher third quarter sales and the continuing benefits of the application of the HNH Business System. The Company also reduced interest expense by $2.9 million for the third quarter of 2011, and $8.8 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, principally because of the debt refinancing completed in October 2010, which contributed to an increase in income from continuing operations, net of tax, of $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2011 as compared to the third quarter of 2010, and $15.1 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the same period of 2010.
We continue to seek opportunities to gain market share in markets we currently serve, expand into new markets through disciplined business development and acquisition identification, cultivation and integration processes and develop new products based on user needs defined by voice of the customer in order to increase demand as well as broaden our sales base. We expect that the continuing application of the HNH Business System and focus on growth processes coupled with lean manufacturing tools including standard work, quick set up, kanban material flow and total productive maintenance provides our management teams with a comprehensive set of tools that have generated and we believe will continue to generate improved business results.
Segment Operating Results
Precious Metal
The Precious Metal segment net sales increased by $19.1 million, or 58.3%, to $51.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to $32.7 million in 2010. The increased sales were primarily driven by an increase of approximately $20.00 per troy ounce in the average market price of silver during the third quarter of 2011 as compared to the same period of 2010, and higher volume. The increase in silver price accounted for $14.8 million in higher sales.
Segment operating income increased by $3.7 million from $3.5 million during the third quarter of 2010 to $7.2 million for the same period in 2011. The increase was primarily driven by higher sales which resulted from both increased silver prices and additional units sold.
Tubing
For the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Tubing segment sales increased by $0.6 million, or 2.5%, to $25.2 million, as compared to $24.6 million during the same period of 2010. The increase was attributable to higher sales from the markets served by the Stainless Steel Tubing Group, which were partially offset by lower sales from the refrigeration market serviced by the Specialty Tubing Group.
Segment operating income decreased by $0.2 million to $3.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to $4.0 million for the same period in 2010. Improved operating income from the Stainless Steel Tubing Group was offset by weakness in sales and gross margin in the refrigeration market served by the Specialty Tubing Group.
Engineered Materials
The Engineered Materials segment sales for the three months ended September 30, 2011 increased by $6.3 million, or 10.1%, to $69.1 million, as compared to $62.8 million during the same period in 2010. The incremental sales were driven by higher volume of commercial roofing products and fasteners, gas and electrical connectors, partially offset by lower sales of electro-galvanized steel products as a result of weak residential construction.
Segment operating income increased by $1.0 million to $8.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to $7.7 million for the same period of 2010. The increase in operating income was principally the result of the higher sales volume. Gross profit margin for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was lower compared to the three months ended September 30, 2010, primarily due to increased sales of lower-margin private label roofing fasteners in the third quarter of 2011 as compared to the third quarter of 2010.
Arlon Electronic Materials
Arlon sales were $18.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, which was relatively flat compared to $18.7 million for the same period of 2010. Higher sales from flex heater and coil insulation products for the general industrial market were partially offset by lower sales of printed circuit board materials related to the telecommunications infrastructure in China.
Segment operating income decreased by $0.3 million to $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to $2.1 million for the same period of 2010. The decrease in operating income was principally the result of lower gross profit margin. Arlon's gross profit margin was 1.6% lower during the third quarter of 2011 as compared to 2010 primarily due to capacity constraints at its China manufacturing facility. In order to satisfy customer demand while Arlon is increasing its manufacturing capacity in China, production in the U.S. was increased at lower margins.
Kasco
Kasco segment sales improved by $1.0 million, or 8.0%, for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $12.0 million during the third quarter of 2010 to $13.0 million during the same period of 2011. The sales improvements were partially from its route business in the United States, as well as additional sales in Europe.
Operating income for the Kasco segment improved by $0.2 million, to $1.0 million for the third quarter of 2011, as compared to $0.8 million for the same period of 2010. Gross profit margin improved during the third quarter of 2011 compared to the same period of 2010 primarily due to cost savings generated by relocating the production facility from Atlanta, Georgia to Mexico.
Liquidity
As of September 30, 2011, the Company's current assets totaled $183.0 million and its current liabilities totaled $143.8 million. Therefore, its working capital was $39.2 million, as compared to working capital of $15.3 million as of December 31, 2010.
On September 12, 2011, H&H Group entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the "Ableco Refinancing") with Ableco, L.L.C., one of its existing lenders, to increase the size of the total term loan thereunder from $25 million to up to $75 million (the "Ableco Facility") and to amend certain covenants. The Ableco Facility now provides for three separate term loans ("Term Loans") at a maximum value of $25 million per Term Loan. The first and second Term Loans bear interest at the U.S. base rate (the prime rate) plus 4.5% or LIBOR (or, if greater, 1.50%) plus 6.00%. The third Term Loan bears interest at the U.S. base rate (the prime rate) plus 7.50% or LIBOR (or, if greater, 1.75%) plus 9.00%. In September, an additional $50 million was borrowed from Ableco, making the outstanding total of the Term Loans $75 million. All amounts outstanding under the Ableco Facility are due and payable in full on July 1, 2013.
In connection with the Ableco Refinancing on September 12, 2011, H&H Group amended and restated the Loan and Security Agreement (the "Wells Fargo Facility") dated October 15, 2010, as amended, by and between H&H Group, together with certain of its subsidiaries, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for the lenders thereunder. The Wells Fargo Facility was amended to, among other things, permit the modification of the Ableco Facility, amend certain covenants and extend the maturity date of the Wells Fargo Facility to July 1, 2013.
On October 14, 2011, H&H Group redeemed $25 million principal amount of its outstanding 10% subordinated secured notes due 2017 (the "Subordinated Notes") on a pro-rata basis among all holders thereof at a redemption price of 102.8% of the principal amount and accrued but unpaid payment-in-kind-interest thereof, plus accrued and unpaid cash interest. Until October 14, 2013, the Subordinated Notes are not detachable from warrants to purchase the Company's common stock, exercisable beginning October 14, 2013 (the "Warrants"), that were issued with the Subordinated Notes as units. Accordingly, a pro rata portion of Warrants were also redeemed on October 14, 2011. After giving effect to the redemption on October 14, 2011, the principal amount of the outstanding Subordinated Notes was approximately $40.6 million.
Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measurements:
The financial data contained in this press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including "Adjusted EBITDA". The Company is presenting Adjusted EBITDA because it believes that it provides useful information to investors about HNH, its business and its financial condition. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss from continuing operations (net of tax) before the effects of realized and unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, income from proceeds of insurance claims, net, LIFO liquidation gain, non-cash pension and other post-employment benefits ("OPEB") expense or credit, and other non-cash credits and charges. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is one of the measures used by the Company's Board of Directors and management to evaluate its business, including in internal management reporting, budgeting and forecasting processes, in comparing operating results across the business, as an internal profitability measure, as a component in evaluating the ability and the desirability of making capital expenditures and significant acquisitions, and as an element in determining executive compensation.
However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), and the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing financial performance. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income (loss) or cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities. Because Adjusted EBITDA is calculated before recurring cash charges including realized and unrealized losses on derivatives, interest expense and taxes, and is not adjusted for capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements of the business, it should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to invest in the growth of the business. There are a number of material limitations to the use of Adjusted EBITDA as an analytical tool, including the following:
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the Company's net realized and unrealized losses and gains on derivatives and any LIFO liquidations of its precious metal inventory;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the Company's interest expense;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the Company's tax expense or the cash requirements to pay its taxes;
- Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash expenses in the period recorded, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the cash requirements for such replacement;
- Adjusted EBITDA does not include pension expense; and
- Adjusted EBITDA does not include discontinued operations.
The Company compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP financial measures and by using Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental information. The Company believes that consideration of Adjusted EBITDA, together with a careful review of its GAAP financial measures, is the most informed method of analyzing HNH.
The Company reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to net income from continuing operations, and that reconciliation is set forth below. We caution investors that, because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Revenues and expenses are measured in accordance with the policies and procedures described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

a) H&H's precious metal inventory is subject to market price fluctuations. H&H enters into commodity futures and forwards contracts on its precious metal inventory that is not subject to fixed-price contracts with its customers in order to economically hedge against price fluctuations. As these derivatives are not designated as accounting hedges under ASC 815, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", they are accounted for as derivatives with no hedge designation. The derivatives are marked to market and both realized and unrealized gains and losses are recorded in current period earnings in the Company's consolidated statement of operations. Such gains and losses are recorded on separate lines of the statement of operations.
b) Other, net, includes non-recurring costs of approximately $800,000 in both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011. Such costs related principally to potential refinancings of the Company's debt that management has elected not to complete at this time.
