Johnson City, Tenn, November 4, 2014 –NN, Inc., (NASDAQ: NNBR) a diversified industrial company, today reported its financial results for the period ended September 30, 2014. Adjusted income from operations for the third quarter increased $2.8 million, or 36% to $10.6 million as compared to $7.8 million for the third quarter of 2013. Adjusted net income increased to $6.3 million or $0.34 per diluted share compared to $5.0 million or $0.29 per diluted share for the same period in 2013.
 
Richard Holder, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased with our operating performance in the third quarter and we continue to see growth in our existing and newly acquired businesses. Beginning with this quarter, and moving forward we are focusing on adjusted income from operations as the key metric for measuring our performance. We believe adjusted income from operations is the best indicator of performance in our core businesses and removes fluctuations resulting from non-recurring activities.”
 
Net sales for the third quarter of 2014 increased $32.6 million, or 35% to $125.6 million, compared to net sales of $93.0 million for the third quarter of 2013. This increase included approximately $29.3 million in net sales from the acquisitions made in 2014. Volume also increased by $3.3 million in existing businesses due to continued strong demand in Asia and North America.
 
 
 

 
As a percentage of net sales, cost of products sold in the third quarter of 2014 of 80.0% increased slightly as compared to 78.5% for last year’s third quarter due to acquisition and integration costs.
 
Reported net loss for the third quarter of 2014 was ($3.8) million, or a loss ($0.21) per diluted share. The loss includes $10.1 million of after-tax non-operating charges related to the acquisitions, expenses related to the retirement of previous debt, and foreign exchange losses on intercompany loans. Excluding these costs, adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2014 was $6.3 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, an increase of 26% as compared to adjusted net income for the same period in the prior year of $5.0 million, or $0.29 per diluted share.
 
Adjusted income from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased $7.1 million or 32.4% to $29.0 million compared to $21.9 million for the same period in 2013. The increase in year to date adjusted income from operations was driven largely from $17.4 million in increased sales volume, operating improvements in existing businesses and one month of operating income from Autocam.
 
Net sales for the first nine months of 2014 increased $51.7 million, or 18.3 % to $334.8 million, compared to net sales of $283.1 million for the first nine months of 2013. This included approximately $35.4 million in net revenue from the acquisitions of Autocam, RFK, Chelsea Grinding, and V-S Industries during 2014. Continued strong demand in Europe, Asia and North America, accounted for the remainder of the increase.
 
Net income for the first nine months of 2014 was $6.6 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, compared to net income of $12.7 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, for the comparable period last year. Year to date net income includes costs related to our four acquisitions, debt retirement, and foreign exchange losses related to intercompany loans. Adjusted net income for the first nine months of 2014 excluding these non-recurring costs was $17.8 million, or $0.98 per diluted share.
 
Cost of products sold for the first nine months of 2014 of 79.1% decreased slightly as compared to 78.9% for the same period last year due to acquisition and integration costs.
 
Debt, net of cash, was $333.6 million at September 30, 2014, an increase of $300.2 million compared to $33.4 million at December 31, 2013. The increase was due primarily to the acquisition activity in the first nine months of 2014.
 
Richard Holder, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased with our third quarter and nine month results which remained in line with our expectations. We expect our existing businesses to experience positive results in the fourth quarter while layering in additional sales and operating income from Autocam.”
 
“Shortly after the Autocam acquisition we created an NN Integration and Transformation team led by a group of leaders from our financial and operational disciplines. I am pleased to report we are on plan with this highly important initiative, specifically with our Autocam Precision Components Group.”
 
 
 

 
Mr. Holder concluded, “2014 has already been a transformative year for NN with the acquisition and integration of four new businesses. Given our performance and the closing of the Autocam transaction, we are revising our expected revenue guidance for full year 2014 from $400-$415 million given earlier this year to $490-$500 million, including approximately $103 million in incremental revenue from our four acquired companies.”

The Company’s management evaluates operating performance excluding unusual and/or nonrecurring items. The Company believes excluding such items provides a more effective and comparable measure of performance and a clearer view of underlying trends. Since net income excluding these items is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, this should not be considered as a substitute for other GAAP measures, including net income, as an indicator of performance. Accordingly, net income/loss excluding the above items is reconciled to net income/loss on a GAAP basis.
