      CLEVELAND, Nov. 9, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- OM Group, Inc. (NYSE: OMG) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011.

      Net sales in the third quarter were $415.1 million, an increase of 40 percent compared with the third quarter of 2010. The most significant driver of the increase was the acquisition of VAC Holding on August 2, 2011. Excluding this acquisition, net sales grew 4 percent as higher volumes in battery materials, semiconductors, ceramics, chemical and defense offset lower price in Advanced Materials. Third quarter net loss of $68.3 million, or $2.17 per diluted share, includes special items totaling $108.5 million, primarily related to the acquisition of VAC Holding and a gain on the sale of land. Excluding special items, income from continuing operations was $40.0 million ($1.27 per diluted share), compared with $24.1 million ($0.79 per diluted share) during the 2010 period.

      "Strong organic volume growth in Engineered Materials, favorable pricing in Specialty Chemicals, plus the significant sales contribution from our Magnetic Technologies acquisition all contributed to the strong top-line growth we achieved during the most recent quarter," said Joseph Scaminace, chairman and chief executive officer. "Adjusted for special items, income from continuing operations surged 66 percent compared with last year, even as we faced increasing challenges from cobalt supply chain fundamentals, further testimony to the efficacy of our diversification efforts."

      In the third quarter of 2011, there were three special items which had significant impact on the reported financial results:

      • $93.5 million of charges in cost of goods sold as a result of the step-up of acquired inventory to fair value, including a $62.4 million lower of cost or market charge and a $31.1 million charge as inventory on-hand as of the acquisition date was sold in the ordinary course of business;
      • $11.2 million of fees related to the acquisition, of which $8.8 million was recorded in corporate expenses and the remainder in Engineering Materials; and
      • $9.7 million gain on the sale of land at the Manchester, England manufacturing facility which was closed last year as part of the Advanced Organics restructuring.

      Excluding special items, gross profit in the third quarter of 2011 was 26.6 percent of sales, compared with 25.4 percent in the 2010 period, and SG&A increased to 14.6 percent of sales, compared with 13.3 percent in the prior-year period, primarily due to the acquisition. Operating profit adjusted for special items improved 38 percent to $49.6 million from $36.1 million last year.

      Income tax expense in the third quarter was $18.4 million, including discrete tax benefits of $7.3 million as well as the impact of the VAC acquisition. Excluding these, the effective income tax rate would have been 12.6 percent.

      Net cash provided by operating activities during the third quarter of 2011 was $21.9 million. The cash balance at the end of the period was $346.4 million and total debt was $686.4 million.

      BUSINESS SEGMENT RESULTS (all comparisons with the third quarter of 2010)

      Engineered Materials

      • As a result of the acquisition of VAC Holding on August 2, 2011, the Company's segment formerly known as Advanced Materials was re-named Engineered Materials.  The Engineered Materials segment  includes the company's existing Advanced Materials business and Magnetic Technologies, which consists of VAC Holding.
      • Net sales were $260.2 million, up 75 percent, due primarily to $106.6 million from Magnetic Technologies for two months since the acquisition
      • Advanced Materials product sales volumes rose 7 percent, primarily due to growth in battery materials and ceramics; other volume increased 35 percent due to higher copper contained in the mix of raw material feed
      • Excluding the special items, operating profit was $38.8 million (14.9 percent of sales), due to $18 million from the acquisition and higher volumes in Advanced Materials, both partially offset by falling cobalt prices and an increase in operating expenses

      Specialty Chemicals

      • Net sales were $120.6 million, up 6 percent
      • Demand was mixed in electronic technologies as semiconductor volumes improved but printed circuit board and memory disk were lower; Advanced Organics volumes grew 3 percent on higher chemical sales
      • Operating profit was $24.7 million (20.5 percent of sales), including a $9.7 million gain on sale of land; excluding the gain, operating profit improved on higher volumes

      Battery Technologies

      • Net sales were $34.7 million, down 3 percent
      • Improved volumes in defense were offset by lower aerospace volumes
      • Operating profit was $3.7 million (10.7 percent of sales), an improvement compared with last year despite the lower revenue as defense achieved favorable pricing and mix

      OUTLOOK

      "As we near the end of 2011 and begin to establish plans for 2012, we remain optimistic regarding the long-term growth prospects of the markets we serve, while mindful of the near-term macroeconomic challenges we face," said Scaminace. "We will continue to aggressively invest in organic growth opportunities as well as strategic and tactical acquisition opportunities, particularly in sectors aligned with growth trends such as clean, affordable energy, proliferation of portable power, evolution of electronic devices, and need for sustainable products and processes. We are committed to creating shareholder value by utilizing our strong, flexible balance sheet to both expand our position within existing markets as well as enter strategic adjacent markets."

      For purposes of this release, discussions related to income (loss) from continuing operations or net income (loss) pertain to amounts attributable to OM Group, Inc. common stockholders.

      PRESENTATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

      The Company is including certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Income from continuing operations attributable to OM Group, Inc. and Earnings per common share – assuming dilution, and operating profit, each as adjusted for special items. The non-GAAP financial measures are defined and reconciled to what management believes to be the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures in a schedule attached to this release. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures facilitate a comparative assessment of the Company's operating performance and will enhance investors' understanding of the performance of the Company's operations during 2011 and of the comparability of the 2011 results to the results of the relevant prior period. Such non-GAAP financial measures are unique to the Company and may not be employed by other companies.
