World Fuel Services Corporation Reports Record Quarterly Results

-- Net Income Increases 22% Year-Over-Year --

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 3, 2011--World Fuel Services Corporation (NYSE: INT), a leading fuel logistics company, principally engaged in the marketing, sale and distribution of aviation, marine and land fuel products and related services, today reported first quarter net income of $41.1 million or $0.58 diluted earnings per share compared to $33.7 million or $0.56 diluted earnings per share in the first quarter of 2010. Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter, which excludes share-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangible assets, was $46.8 million or $0.66 non-GAAP diluted earnings per share compared to $36.2 million or $0.60 non-GAAP diluted earnings per share in the first quarter of 2010.

The company’s aviation segment generated gross profit of $70.1 million in the first quarter of 2011, an increase of $12.1 million or 21% sequentially, and an increase of $21.8 million or 45% year-over-year. The marine segment generated gross profit of $40.2 million, a decrease of $1.3 million or 3% sequentially, but an increase of $800 thousand or 2% from last year’s results. The company’s land segment posted gross profit of $26.4 million in the first quarter, an increase of $2.4 million or 10% sequentially, and $15.4 million or 139% year-over-year.

“During the quarter, we continued to demonstrate our ability to leverage our risk management disciplines, while profitably growing the business,” said Paul H. Stebbins, chairman and chief executive officer of World Fuel Services Corporation. “We are pleased with our strong results in what continues to be a very challenging operating environment.”

“We closed and integrated the NCS acquisition during the quarter, which will allow us to leverage our existing business activities in the fuel logistics marketplace,” stated Michael J. Kasbar, president and chief operating officer. “We have also recently completed the acquisition of Ascent, which combined with the other recent acquisitions and core business, strengthens our leadership position in the general and business aviation space.”


Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes selected financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). This information includes non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. The non-GAAP financial measures exclude costs associated with share-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangible assets, primarily because we do not believe they are reflective of the company’s core operating results. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered in conjunction with our financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, are useful for investors to evaluate our core operating results and trends.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our presentation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share may not be comparable to the presentation of such metrics by other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release.
