(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110215/CG49203LOGO)
Second Quarter 2011 Highlights Included:
- Net revenue increased 13 percent year-over-year;
- Gross profit margin improved 10 basis points sequentially despite persistent raw material price inflation;
- Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A) expense reduced to 19.7 as a percent of net revenue, the lowest level since 2008;
- Completed the acquisition of the Liquamelt® adhesive business, which provides another advanced technology platform to address customer needs.
Second Quarter 2011 Results:
Net income for the second quarter of 2011 was $25.1 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, versus $11.0 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, in last year's second quarter. Net income for the second quarter of 2010 included exit costs and non-cash impairment charges associated with the exit of the Company's polysulfide insulating glass sealant product line in Europe totaling $8.4 million after-tax. After adjusting for these charges, second quarter 2010 net income was $19.5 million, or $0.39(1) per diluted share. Diluted earnings per share in the second quarter of 2011 increased 28 percent compared to the adjusted results of the prior year.
Net revenue for the second quarter of 2011 was $393.7 million, up 13.2 percent versus the second quarter of 2010. Higher average selling prices, higher volume, favorable foreign currency translation and acquisitions positively impacted net revenue growth by 8.2, 0.3, 3.0 and 1.7 percentage points, respectively. Organic revenue grew by 8.5 percent year-over-year. On a sequential basis, net revenue increased approximately 16 percent relative to the first quarter of 2011, driven by normal seasonal patterns and incremental price increases.
Gross profit margin was down 50 basis points versus the second quarter of 2010, due to the cumulative effect of escalating raw material costs over the past year. Gross profit margin improved by 10 basis points versus the previous quarter as a combination of price increases and product reformulation more than offset raw material cost inflation. Relative to the prior year, SG&A expense was higher by 3.1 percent, but down 190 basis points as a percentage of net revenue.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow:
At the end of the second quarter of 2011, the Company had cash totaling $138 million and total debt of $240 million. This compares to first quarter levels of $122 million and $239 million, respectively. Sequentially, net debt was down approximately $15 million. Cash flow from operations was $32 million in the second quarter. Capital expenditures for the second quarter were $7.9 million.
Year-To-Date:
Net income for the first half of 2011 was $39.5 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, versus $30.0 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, in the first half of last year. Net income for the first half of 2010 included after-tax exit costs and non-cash impairment charges associated with the exiting of the Company's polysulfide insulating glass sealant product line in Europe. After adjusting for these charges, first half 2010 net income was $38.4 million, or $0.77(1) per diluted share.
Net revenue for the first half of 2011 was $733.3 million, up 11.5 percent versus the first half of 2010. Higher average selling prices, higher volume, favorable foreign currency translation and acquisitions positively impacted net revenue growth by 7.8, 0.9, 1.1 and 1.7 percentage points, respectively. Organic sales increased by 8.7 percent year-over-year in the first half of 2011.
Fiscal 2011 Outlook:
"Our performance this quarter demonstrates our ability to execute with rigor and speed," said Jim Owens, H. B. Fuller president and chief executive officer. "In the face of continued raw material inflation, we performed well against our three key objectives for this year –net revenue grew by double digits both year-over-year and sequentially, gross margin expanded sequentially and SG&A reached its lowest percentage of net revenue since 2008. We are certainly pleased with these results and, although economic improvement remains uncertain, we believe the momentum we have built points to a better year than we originally planned, and we are increasing our EPS guidance by $0.10."
The following highlights the Company's expectations for several key metrics in its 2011 financial outlook:
- Net revenue 13 percent to 15 percent higher in 2011 relative to 2010, up from previous guidance of 10 percent to 12 percent;
- Earnings per diluted share of between $1.85 and $1.95, up from previous guidance of between $1.75 and $1.85;
- Capital expenditures approximately $40 million;
- The Company's effective tax rate, excluding discrete items, is expected to be 31 percent, down from previous guidance of 32 percent.

Safe Harbor for Forward-Looking Statements:
Certain statements in this document may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the following: the Company's ability to effectively integrate and operate acquired businesses; political and economic conditions; product demand; competitive products and pricing; costs of and savings from restructuring initiatives; geographic and product mix; availability and price of raw materials; the Company's relationships with its major customers and suppliers; changes in tax laws and tariffs; devaluations and other foreign exchange rate fluctuations; the impact of litigation and environmental matters; the effect of new accounting pronouncements and accounting charges and credits; and similar matters.

Additionally, the variety of products sold by the Company and the regions where the Company does business make it difficult to determine with certainty the increases or decreases in net revenue resulting from changes in the volume of products sold, currency impact, changes in product mix, and selling prices. However, management's best estimates of these changes as well as changes in other factors have been included.
