Donald D. Charron, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Continued strength in the automotive market in North America and Europe more than offset a decline in China. Double-digit increases in our industrial and public safety end market verticals helped us set a new quarterly sales record for the fifth consecutive quarter. Our new program launch and ramp-up activity remain high as we continue to work diligently to achieve our goal of $1 billion in annual sales in fiscal year 2018.”
Mr. Charron continued, “We continue to face margin pressure and while we still have work to do to achieve our goal of 12.5% ROIC, we are encouraged by our progress in that both our third quarter and year-to-date gross margins and operating margins have improved over the prior year. Margin expansion and capital efficiency will continue to be priorities of focus for us as we work through another year of significant new program launches, the continued ramp-up of our new Romania operation, and the integration of our Medivative and Aircom acquisitions.”
Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2017 Overview:
• | Consolidated net sales increased 9% compared to the third quarter of fiscal year 2016, the fifth consecutive quarterly sales record. |
• | Net income increased to $8.1 million from $7.5 million in the same quarter last year. Included in net income in the prior year quarter was a $1.8 million discrete foreign income tax benefit resulting from a favorable tax ruling related to the capitalization of the Company’s Romania subsidiary. |
• | The ramp-up of the Company’s Romania facility negatively impacted net income by $0.9 million during the quarter compared with a $0.4 million net impact from incremental start-up costs in the prior year quarter. |
• | Return on invested capital (“ROIC”) was 10.7%, which has improved from 8.7% in the prior year (see reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures for ROIC calculation). |
• | Cash flow from operating activities was $8.7 million for the quarter. |
• | Cash conversion days (“CCD”) for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 were 61 days, which compares to 57 days in the same quarter last year. CCD is calculated as the sum of days sales outstanding plus production days supply on hand less accounts payable days. |
• | Investments in capital expenditures were $6.3 million during the quarter. |
• | $3.0 million was returned to Share Owners during the quarter in the form of common stock repurchases. |
• | Cash and cash equivalents were $40.1 million and borrowings outstanding on credit facilities were $6.5 million at March 31, 2017. |

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained within this release are considered forward-looking under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are subject to risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, successful integration of acquisitions and new operations, global economic conditions, geopolitical environment, significant volume reductions from key contract customers, loss of key customers or suppliers, financial stability of key customers and suppliers, availability or cost of raw materials, and increased competitive pricing pressures reflecting excess industry capacities. Additional cautionary statements regarding other risk factors that could have an effect on the future performance of the Company are contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2016.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in the United States in the statement of income, statement of comprehensive income, balance sheet, statement of cash flows, or statement of equity of the company. The non-GAAP financial measures contained herein for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 include adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, and ROIC. These measures were adjusted for spin-off expenses, proceeds from a lawsuit settlement, and a bargain purchase gain. Reconciliations of the reported GAAP numbers to these non-GAAP financial measures are included in the financial highlights table below. Management believes it is useful for investors to understand how its core operations performed without the effects of the spin-off expenses, proceeds from the lawsuit settlement, and the bargain purchase gain. Excluding these amounts allows investors to meaningfully trend, analyze, and benchmark the performance of the Company’s core operations. Many of the Company’s internal performance measures that management uses to make certain operating decisions exclude these charges to enable meaningful trending of core operating metrics.
