FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
COMMERCIAL VEHICLE GROUP ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER
2011 RESULTS
NEW ALBANY, OHIO, April 26, 2011 — Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: CVGI) today reported revenues of $182.5 million for the first quarter of 2011, up 24.7% compared to $146.4 million for the prior-year period. Operating income for the first quarter was $8.1 million compared to $3.6 million for the first quarter of 2010. Net income was $3.3 million for the first quarter, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared to $0.7 million, or $0.03 per diluted share in the prior-year quarter. Diluted shares outstanding for the quarter were 28.2 million compared to 23.8 million for the prior-year period.
“We are very pleased with our first quarter results as we continue to see positive trends through market improvements and the impact of new business,” said Mervin Dunn, President and Chief Executive Officer of Commercial Vehicle Group. “This past quarter marks the highest revenue levels we have achieved since the third quarter of 2008 and the highest operating income we have achieved since the first quarter of 2007 when excluding non-operating items such as restructuring charges, asset impairments and gains on the sale of assets. As we move forward, our focus remains on long-term growth initiatives and bottom line improvements,” added Mr. Dunn.
Included in the Company’s results for the first quarter of 2011 are revenues of approximately $5.6 million and operating income of approximately $0.1 million relating to the acquisition of Bostrom Seating on January 28, 2011. Also included in the first quarter results are acquisition costs relating to Bostrom Seating of approximately $0.4 million, the net impact of certain raw material increases of approximately $0.3 million and costs related to Mexico expansion of approximately $0.3 million.
The Company did not have any outstanding borrowings under its asset-based revolver at March 31, 2011 and, as a result, was not subject to any financial maintenance covenants. The Company does not expect to trigger the requirement to comply with financial maintenance covenants in 2011.
“Year-over-year, our results continue to show the positive impact of the increase in our end markets and improved revenues, despite the heavy decline in our military end market sales from the same period last year” said Chad M. Utrup, Chief Financial Officer of Commercial Vehicle Group. “Sequentially, our results continue to show positive trends both on the revenue side as well as on an operating performance level. Excluding the short-term costs associated with our Mexico expansion, Bostrom acquisition, restructuring actions and certain raw material increases, our operating performance was in line with our expectations,” added Mr. Utrup.
