TULSA, Okla., Aug 16, 2010 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX News Network) -- Global Power Equipment Group Inc. (Nasdaq:GLPW) ("Global Power" or the "Company") today announced its unaudited financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.
For the second quarter of 2010, revenue was $124.7 million and net income was $10.6 million or $0.65 per diluted share, compared to revenue of $155.8 million and net income of $17.4 million or $1.12 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2009. For the first six months of 2010, revenue was $281.8 million and net income was $21.8 million or $1.35 per diluted share, compared to revenue of $281.8 million and net income of $30.1 million or $1.96 per diluted share for the first six months of 2009. Services division revenue as a percentage of consolidated revenue was 73% for the first half of 2010, up from 59% for the same period in 2009.
"We completed another solid quarter of operating performance with higher realized margins on lower volume compared to the prior year," said David Keller, President and CEO of Global Power. "Product bookings in the quarter showed improvement and while the increase in resulting backlog is encouraging, the margins on new Product bookings are significantly lower than shipments during the quarter due to the competitive environment in this depressed part of the OEM cycle. Our continued generation of cash has further strengthened our balance sheet and we are well-positioned to evaluate strategic options as a listed company once again."
The Company generated EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) from continuing operations of $10.8 million and $25.7 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2010, as compared to $15.3 million and $32.1 million for the same periods in 2009.
The Company's term loan was $24.6 million as of June 30, 2010 net of $40.7 million in payments made during the first quarter of 2010. During the first half of 2010 cash provided by operating activities was $7.8 million. As of June 30, 2010, the Company had unrestricted cash of $66.3 million and $25 million of unused capacity on its revolving credit facility.
In addition, the Company's backlog increased $30.3 million during the second quarter of 2010 to $298.0 million as of June 30, 2010. Services division backlog as a percentage of total backlog was 67% at June 30, 2010 as compared to 63% at March 31, 2010.
The Company believes EBITDA and backlog are important supplemental measures of operating performance and uses both to assess performance and inform operating decisions. However neither EBITDA nor backlog is a GAAP financial measure. A table reconciling EBITDA to net income is included in the financial information that is part of this release. The Company's calculations of EBITDA and backlog should not be used as a substitute for GAAP measures of performance, including net cash provided by operations, operating income and net income. The Company's method of calculating EBITDA and backlog may vary substantially from the methods used by other companies and investors are cautioned not to rely unduly on these non-GAAP measures.
On July 12, 2010, after the close of the second quarter, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court approved a settlement of certain claims against the Company and its Deltak subsidiary. As a result of that settlement and the related compromise by the Company of its own claim against the fund that had been established pursuant to the Company's Plan of Reorganization to be distributed to holders of allowed unsecured claims against Deltak, the Company received a cash payment of $2.8 million on July 27, 2010.
The Company will host a conference call on Monday, August 16, 2010 at 4:00 p.m. Central Time (5:00 p.m. Eastern Time) to discuss these results. The call can be accessed by telephone at (877) 407-0789 (within the U.S. and Canada) and at (201) 689-8562 (outside the U.S. and Canada) or by webcast through the investor information portion of the Company's website, www.globalpower.com.
