Net Sales
Net sales increased $14 million for the three months ended December 28, 2012 to $385 million from $371 million for the three months ended December 30, 2011. The increase was due primarily to higher volume from our Global Pipe, Tube and Conduit ("GPTC") products of $24 million, and $5 million of freight recovery classified as revenue in the current period. This increase was partially offset by a reduction of $10 million due to lower pricing from GPTC and an unfavorable foreign currency exchange impact of $4 million primarily as a result of the appreciation of the U.S. Dollar versus the Brazilian Real.
Operating Income
Operating income increased by $5 million to $7 million for the three months ended December 28, 2012 compared to $2 million for the three months ended December 30, 2011. The increase was due primarily to higher gross margins of $7 million for GPTC products as a result of higher volume and lower average raw material costs, offset by higher lower selling, general, and administrative expense of $2 million.
Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP): Adjusted EBITDA was $27 million and $19 million for the three months ended December 28, 2012 and December 30, 2011, respectively.
Adjusted Economic EBITDA (Non-GAAP): In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company began including results in terms of Adjusted Economic EBITDA to evaluate the performance of the Company. Adjusted Economic EBITDA is a metric used internally by management and differs from Adjusted EBITDA results by substituting an estimate of the current period, current market steel materials cost in the Pipe, Tube and Conduit business for the accounting cost, which is done on a FIFO basis. The Company believes Adjusted Economic EBITDA provides a more accurate view of the economic performance of the business by aligning the relationship between pricing and steel cost in the same period. Use of the FIFO costing method, as we do in our GAAP accounting records, results in higher spreads when steel costs are rising and lower spreads when steel costs are falling. The difference may be significant and may result in distorted performance comparisons. The use of Adjusted Economic EBITDA eliminates a significant portion of this volatility. Adjusted Economic EBITDA was $35 million and $34 million for the three months ended December 28, 2012 and December 30, 2011, respectively.

Net Sales
Net sales for the three months ended December 28, 2012 increased $13 million to $249 million from $236 million for the three months ended December 30, 2011. The increase was attributable primarily to higher volume partly offset by lower average selling prices. The gradually improving non-residential construction market in North America contributed to higher volumes, up 12% from the three months ended December 30, 2011. The increase was also attributable to $5 million of freight recovery, which was classified as revenue in the current period. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates had an unfavorable impact of $4 million, primarily as a result of the appreciation of the U.S. Dollar versus the Brazilian Real.
Operating Income
Operating income for the three months ended December 28, 2012 increased $7 million to $8 million compared to $1 million in the three months ended December 30, 2011. The increase in operating income was due primarily to higher volume and lower average raw material steel costs for GPTC products partly offset by lower average selling prices. Average selling prices were 6% lower and average raw material steel costs were 11% lower during three months ended December 28, 2012, compared to the three months ended December 30, 2011.

Net Sales
Net sales increased $3 million to $145 million for the three months ended December 28, 2012 compared to $142 million for the three months ended December 30, 2011. The increase was attributable to higher volume and selling prices for Global Cable & Cable Management ("GCCM") products due to gradually improving non-residential construction markets in North America and Asia-Pacific.
Operating Income
Operating Income for the three months ended December 28, 2012, decreased $4 million to $8 million compared to $12 million in the three months ended December 30, 2011. The decrease was due primarily to a $2 million adjustment to restructuring reserves, a $1 million impairment charge associated with an asset held for sale and higher average raw material copper prices, offset by a favorable impact of higher average selling prices for GCCM products.

Represents an adjustment to cost of sales in the Pipe, Tube and Conduit business to substitute an estimate of the current period, current market steel materials cost for the accounting cost, which is done on a FIFO basis. The Company believes this adjustment represents a more accurate view of the economic performance by aligning the relationship between pricing and steel cost in the same period. Use of the FIFO costing method, as we do in our GAAP accounting records, results in higher spreads when steel costs are rising and lower spreads when steel costs are falling. The difference may be significant and may result in distorted performance comparisons. The use of Adjusted Economic EBITDA eliminates a significant portion of this volatility. |
