- Revenue for the Industrial Group increased 2% from the third quarter of last year to $66.7 million, while gross profit increased 13% to $7.4 million.
- While revenue for the Electronics Group decreased from the third quarter of last year to $9.6 million, revenue increased 24% sequentially.
For the Nine Months:
- Revenue for the Company decreased 14% compared to the first nine months of last year.
- Despite an 8% decline in revenue for our Industrial Group as compared to the first nine months of last year, gross margin increased 50 basis points to 11.5%.
- Revenue and gross profit for the Electronics Group declined to $24.6 million and a loss of $0.7 million, respectively, reflecting the impact of sequestration and other defense-related spending delays.
The Company reported revenue of $76.3 million for the third quarter compared to $78.8 million for prior year period. Additionally, the Company reported a net loss of $2.0 million, or $0.10 per share, as compared to a net loss of $5.7 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the prior year comparable period.
For the nine months ended September 29, 2013, the Company reported revenue of $236.9 million compared to $274.1 million for the prior year comparable period. The Company reported a net loss for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 of $9.9 million, or $0.52 per share, as compared to income of $4.0 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the prior year period comparable period.
The results for the first nine months of 2013 included a $6.9 million non-cash impairment of goodwill, a foreign currency related loss of $0.5 million, partially offset by a gain of $1.6 million from the sale of idle assets. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 included a gain of $2.6 million in connection with the sale of idle assets, a gain of $1.9 million from the sale of marketable securities, offset by a loss from discontinued operations of $7.1 million and a foreign currency translation loss of $0.9 million.
“Our Industrial Group responded well to the reduction in production of commercial vehicles, which resulted in a 10% sequential decline in quarterly revenue,” said Jeffrey T. Gill, president and chief executive officer. “We expect the demand in the overall commercial vehicle market to remain flat throughout the remainder of 2013, before rebounding in the second quarter of 2014 as OEMs focus on the introduction of the new model year vehicles and engine technologies that offer far greater fuel efficiency than previous models.
“Our Aerospace and Defense business continues to be affected by budgetary and funding uncertainties within the U.S. Department of Defense that are not expected to be eliminated in the near term. For the longer term, we are continuing to invest in R&D in order to position the business and its product offerings for future growth and profitability, with a specific emphasis on trusted solutions for identity management, cryptographic key distribution and cyber analytics.”
The Industrial Group
Revenue for our Industrial Group was $66.7 million in the third quarter compared to $74.4 million for the second quarter of 2013 and $65.2 million for the third quarter of last year. Gross profit for the third quarter was $7.4 million, or 11.1% of revenue, compared to $8.9 million, or 11.9% of revenue for the second quarter of 2013 and $6.6 million, or 10.1% of revenue for the third quarter of 2012.
The Electronics Group
Revenue for our Electronics Group was $9.6 million in the third quarter of 2013 compared to $7.7 million for the second quarter of 2013 and $13.6 million in the third quarter of last year, reflecting a number of factors including budgetary and funding uncertainties within the U.S. Department of Defense. Gross profit for the quarter was a loss of $0.2 million, compared to a loss of $0.5 million for the second quarter of 2013 and profit of $2.8 million for the third quarter of 2012, primarily reflecting the lower sales volume and change in product mix.
Outlook
Mr. Gill added, “We will continue to concentrate on the daily execution of our business. We expect recent investments in production cells and automation by our Industrial Group to contribute to further margin expansion going forward. Our Electronics Group will continue to face near-term revenue challenges that we expect to be ongoing until the outlook for defense spending is clarified.”
