AMCOL INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION (NYSE:ACO)
REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

HOFFMAN ESTATES, IL, October 26, 2012— For the third quarter of 2012, AMCOL International Corporation (NYSE:ACO) generated diluted earnings attributable to its shareholders from continuing operations of $0.58 per share versus $0.66 per share in the prior year’s quarter, which included a $0.07 per share benefit from the gain on the sale of our Belgian joint venture investment and a $0.03 per share benefit from the favorable settlement of tax audits.

Net sales increased 2.1% to $253.3 million for the 2012 third quarter as compared to $248.1 million for the 2011 period.  Excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, net sales would have increased 4.7%.  Our results were negatively impacted by the performance of our lining technologies product line, which continues to face increased competition in a declining market.  We are addressing these challenges by developing new products and targeting new markets.

Gross profit decreased 1.7% in the 2012 third quarter, and gross profit margin decreased 110 basis points to 27.4%.  Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 5.0% to $41.8 million.  Operating profit increased 3.8% to $27.6 million, and operating profit margins remained relatively constant at approximately 10.9%.  Our effective tax rate for the 2012 third quarter was 29.5% compared to 22.5% in the prior year period.  Excluding the favorable resolution of tax audits, the effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2011, would have been 26.7%.  In addition as previously mentioned, income from joint ventures and affiliates decreased $1.9 million in the current year period as the prior year period included a $2.1 million, or $0.07 per share, gain from the sale of a joint venture investment in Belgium.

“As the year has progressed, we have seen continued economic weakening and uncertainty impacting end markets in a number of sectors – especially those related to certain construction and consumer products as customers have delayed projects and reduced orders,” said AMCOL President and CEO Ryan McKendrick.

 “In Minerals & Materials, we saw continued strength in the domestic metalcasting business, but we experienced a 1.1% decline in segment sales resulting partially from lower demand for drilling additives and pet products.  Our manufacturing facilities reacted quickly to the reductions and, as a result, maintained gross margin above 25%,”   McKendrick continued.
 
 
 

 
 
“Our Environmental segment experienced a 15.0% decline in sales – primarily due to market conditions that have negatively impacted lining technologies demand and our decision to significantly reduce our contracting services.  We continue to focus on growing sales in our building materials and construction related drilling product lines which now account for 50% of segment sales.  As a result, gross margin for the segment improved to 32.6%,” McKendrick added.

McKendrick continued, “In Oilfield Services, we achieved record revenues and operating profit with the strengthening of our market position in key international markets and in service lines where we anticipate growth in the coming years. Pricing pressures and cost increases in our coil tubing services adversely affected our results along with activity disruptions caused by Hurricane Isaac.”

“We are confident in the long term fundamentals of our business, and our growth strategy remains unchanged.  We continue building the framework to maintain our leadership position in key product lines by expanding our global presence and developing a balanced participation in growing market sectors such as energy, industrial, consumer, and infrastructure,” he concluded.
 
 
STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS HIGHLIGHTS:

The statement of operations highlights are supported by the quarterly segment results schedules included in this press release. The following comments relate to our results for the current quarter as compared to the same quarter in the prior year, unless otherwise noted.

Net sales: Net sales increased $5.2 million or 2.1%.

Minerals & Materials:  Increased selling prices were overshadowed by lower volumes and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate movements, leading to the overall decrease in sales.  Volumes have decreased in our pet products and drilling additive products (within basic minerals).  In pet products, we are seeing lower overall market demand.  Our drilling fluid additives have suffered due to inventory destocking by customers.   Although our metalcasting product line sales increased, we are seeing a decrease in demand in China due to decreased infrastructure related castings.

Environmental:  Approximately 37% of the $10.7 million decrease in sales resulted from unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate movements, almost entirely in our European subsidiaries.  The majority of the remaining decrease also occurred in these European subsidiaries as a result of our decision to downsize our contracting services.  Our lining technologies product line also continues to experience weakened demand due to a declining market and increased competition.  These reductions have overshadowed increased sales of our drilling products.

Oilfield Services:   This segment has experienced strong growth due to increases in demand and our service capacity as well as growth in our international operations.  Our international operations generated 69.5% of the increase in sales, the majority of which is related to our water filtration business.  Domestically, our revenues increased in our water filtration, well testing and pipeline services.
 
 
 

 
 
Transportation:  Revenues decreased primarily due to lower shipment volumes. Revenues continue to suffer from decreased supply of carriers and owner operators who are being recruited to oil and gas opportunities within the Bakken shale region.

Gross profit:  Gross profit decreased by $1.2 million, or 1.7%, to $69.4 million.  Gross margin decreased 110 basis points to 27.4%.

Minerals & Materials: Gross profit and gross profit margin in this segment was comparable to the prior year quarter.

Environmental:  Gross profit decreased due to less sales, however, gross profit margin increased 150 basis points due to better cost management, a beneficial change in product mix, and increased selling prices in our drilling and building materials product lines.

Oilfield Services:  Nearly all of the improvement in this segment’s gross profits occurred in our international operations where performance has improved due to new management, increasing demand for our services, and greater success at winning large contracts.  Domestically, revenues were stagnant in our coil tubing services, where gross profit margins also suffered due to pricing pressures and cost increases.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A): SG&A expenses decreased $2.2 million, or 5.0%, due largely to decreases in our Environmental and Corporate segments.  Our Environmental segment benefitted equally from favorable foreign currency exchange rate movements and decreased bad debt expenses.  Our Corporate segment’s expenses decreased due to decreased employee benefit expenses.  Our Minerals & Materials segment’s expenses increased 10% due to a variety of factors, the largest of which is increased headcounts and compensation.

Income tax expense:  The prior year period includes favorable settlements on income tax audits which depressed the effective income tax rate in that period by 420 basis points.  The current period’s pre-tax income is more concentrated in higher tax rate jurisdictions; the current period’s effective tax rate is 29.5%.


FINANCIAL POSITION AND CASH FLOW HIGHLIGHTS:

The paragraphs in this section compare our balance sheet as of September 30, 2012 to that as of December 31, 2011.  We also make comparisons between cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Cash flow generated from operating activities increased $55.9 million largely due to improved management of non-cash working capital and greater net income.  Our accounts receivable and inventory balances have increased at a slower rate as compared to the prior year period.  We also paid down $16.8 million of long-term debt during the current period as opposed to borrowing $14.9 million in the prior year period.  Long-term debt as a percentage of total capitalization decreased 460 basis points to 35.1%.

Capital expenditures were $54.2 million as compared to $43.8 million in the prior year period.  Expenditures associated with our start-up chromite operations were $7.1 million and $5.9 million in the 2012 and 2011 periods, respectively.  In the current year, the majority of our capital spending occurred in our Oilfield Services and Minerals & Materials segments.
 
 
 

 

Dividends for 2012 remained fairly constant between the periods.  However, our dividend rate increased in the third quarter as compared to the second quarter of 2012 by $0.02 to $0.20 per share.
