Southwall Announces Second Quarter 2011 Financial Results
 
PALO ALTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- August 12, 2011--Southwall Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: SWTX), an energy efficiency company that develops and manufactures high-performance films and glass products that save energy and reduce carbon emissions in buildings, homes and cars, announced results for the second quarter 2011.   Southwall reported revenue of $13.5 million, with $13.1 million representing sales related to the film segment, an overall increase of 15% as compared to the second quarter of 2010. The year-over-year increase primarily reflects increasing demand for higher energy efficiency products in the automotive and window film markets.
 
With continued softness in the residential insulating glass market, the Company made the decision to exit the commodity portion of the glass business to focus this segment's resources on further developing value added Heat Mirror® insulating glass technology, where Southwall maintains a strategic and technological advantage.  In accordance with GAAP, the Company recorded a goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge of $1.8 million related to the glass segment. There is no tax benefit associated with this noncash impairment charge.

Second quarter 2011 net loss, including the impairment, before the preferred dividend was ($0.6M), or ($0.12) per fully diluted shares as compared to the second quarter 2010 net income of $3.0M, or $0.42 per fully diluted share.

“Our Film segment remains strong and has continued to grow across the Automotive and Window Film markets enabling ongoing investment in the Company’s growth initiatives." said Dennis Capovilla, President and Chief Executive Officer .
