MAYFIELD VILLAGE, Ohio, Aug. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Preformed Line Products Company (Nasdaq:  PLPC) today reported financial results for the second quarter and the first six months of 2012.

Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 decreased 21% to $6,596,000, or $1.21 per diluted share, compared to $8,386,000 or $1.55 per diluted share, for the comparable period in 2011.  Currency exchange rates had a negative impact on net income of $502,000 or $.09 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2012.

Net sales in the second quarter of 2012 were $111,940,000, compared to $114,530,000 in the second quarter of 2011.  Currency exchange rates had a negative impact on sales of $6,333,000 for the second quarter of 2012.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $14,729,000, or $2.71 per diluted share, compared to $15,384,000, or $2.85 per diluted share for the comparable period in 2011.  Currency exchange rates had a negative impact on net income of $693,000 or $.13 per diluted share for the first six months of 2012.

Net sales increased 5% to $220,786,000 for the first six months of 2012 compared to $209,618,000 in the first six months of 2011.  Currency exchange rates had a negative impact on sales of $7,260,000 for the first six months of 2012.

Rob Ruhlman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our domestic operations continue to remain strong with a 20% sales growth for the first half of the year.  Currency headwinds had a significant negative impact on our worldwide results as foreign currencies weakened against the U.S. Dollar.  In addition to the $.5 million impact on the quarter and nearly $.7 million impact on the year resulting from translating foreign denominated financial statements into Dollars, we had pre-tax changes in unrealized translation losses of $1.8 million for the quarter and $1.2 million for the year resulting from intercompany receivables and loans. Excluding the impact of currency, our net income improved for the year and was 3% lower for the quarter. Considering the condition of the global economy, these results are on par if not slightly above those of our peers."
