Neal J. Keating, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “During the third quarter we delivered solid performance in both of our businesses. Aerospace delivered 28.9% sales growth driven by deliveries of over 10,000 Joint Programmable Fuzes ("JPF") during the quarter, which offset lower sales volume on certain other programs. In Distribution, we achieved double digit sales growth and completed two strategic acquisitions that we believe will continue to propel growth in the future.

Industrial Distribution sales growth was 10.1%, driven by our recent acquisitions, while organic sales were flat during the quarter. We were able to achieve a 5.0% operating profit margin for the third quarter

by focusing on cost control initiatives, despite flat organic sales and the September acquisition of the assets of Zeller Corporation, which was dilutive to the operating margin percentage for the period. In addition, we incurred higher costs from our investment in our new ERP system and acquisition due diligence and integrations.

Aerospace sales performance was led by the JPF program the strength of which offset lower deliveries on several other programs, most notably the BLACK HAWK and Unmanned K-MAX®. As expected, sales of our bearing product lines were solid despite being lower sequentially coming off an extremely strong Q2 performance. The 16.1% operating profit margin in Aerospace benefited from favorable JPF sales volume in the quarter, offset by a less profitable mix of bearing sales and a one time charge for a contract claim settlement.

We are monitoring business conditions, particularly defense spending issues in Aerospace and certain end market weakness within Distribution. Proactive expense reduction actions have been taken where appropriate and contingency plans have been developed in the event conditions warrant more aggressive actions. Overall, we are pleased with our performance in the quarter and believe we continue to make progress with our long term strategy."

Segment reports follow:

Industrial Distribution segment

Sales increased 10.1% in the third quarter of 2012 to a record $263.3 million compared to $239.1 million a year ago. Acquisitions contributed $24.4 million in sales in the quarter (sales from acquisitions are classified as organic beginning with the thirteenth month following the acquisition). On a sales per sales day* basis, sales increased 10.1% over last year's third quarter, with organic sales flat for the period. (See Table 3 for additional details regarding the Segment's sales per sales day performance.) This was primarily due to increases in primary metal and fabricated metals manufacturing, merchant wholesalers and durable goods, and paper manufacturing mostly offset by declines in the food and beverage industries.

Segment operating income for the third quarter of 2012 was $13.2 million compared to operating income of $12.3 million in the third quarter of 2011. The operating profit margin for the third quarter of 2012 was 5.0%. Operating profit dollars were higher year over year due to the contribution of operating income from our 2011 and 2012 acquisitions. This increase was partially offset by increased employee related costs, higher ERP implementation costs and acquisition integration expenses.

Aerospace segment

Sales were $151.3 million, an increase of $33.9 million from sales of $117.4 million in the third quarter of 2011. This increase was due to deliveries of over 10,000 JPF to the US Government. Additionally, strong performance from bearing product lines; increased deliveries under the A-10 re-wing program; higher volume of sales on our legacy fuze programs; higher sales on our helicopter aftermarket programs, including the Egypt SH-2G(E) upgrade program and K-MAX spares; and contributions from the acquisition of Vermont Composites contributed to the increased sales. The increases were partially offset by lower sales on several programs including the Unmanned K-MAX and BLACK HAWK cockpit production programs and lower engineering design work on certain commercial aircraft programs.

Operating income for the third quarter of 2012 was $24.4 million, compared to operating income of $19.2 million in the third quarter of 2011. The operating margin in this year's third quarter was 16.1% as compared to 16.3% in the prior year. The increase in operating income resulted from higher deliveries of JPF and higher gross profit resulting from increased sales volume on other legacy fuze programs. Also benefiting margin was the absence of legal fees related to FMU-143 litigation. These increases were offset by a less profitable mix of bearing products, the declines mentioned in the preceding paragraph and the write-off of $0.6 million related to the settlement of a claim for one of our legacy fuze programs.

Outlook

The Company's updated expectations for 2012 are as follows:

• Industrial Distribution:

◦ Sales of $1,040 million to $1,055 million

◦ Operating margin of 5.1% to 5.3%

• Aerospace:

◦ Sales of $585 million to $595 million

◦ Operating margin between 15.7% and 16.0%

• Corporate expenses of approximately $49 million

• Interest expense of approximately $11.5 million

• Estimated tax rate of between 34.5% and 35.0%

• Free cash flow* in the range of $25 million to $30 million.

Chief Financial Officer, William C. Denninger, commented, "While significantly stronger than last year our results for the quarter were slightly below expectations, and with additional push outs in Aerospace we are lowering our outlook for the full year. At Aerospace, the ability to increase our JPF deliveries has allowed us to offset some delivery push outs on other programs. This lower volume, although disappointing, has been driven by a shift in near term customer requirements. At Distribution, our strategy of focused growth through acquisition delivered double digit sales growth for the period, while weakness in certain end markets we serve resulted in flat organic sales. We believe organic sales trends will remain weak through the fourth quarter. Corporate expense was higher in the quarter as a result of $1.0 million of acquisition costs incurred and $0.6 million of severance costs. We are managing costs across the company in an effort to ensure we maintain our profit margin and are able to react to changing market conditions. Our free cash flow* generation in the quarter was strong at $34.0 million.”

Non-GAAP Measure Disclosure

Management believes that the non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures indicated by an asterisk (*) used in this release or in other disclosures provide important perspectives into the Company's ongoing business performance. The Company does not intend for the information to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. Other companies may define the measures differently. We define the non-GAAP measures used in this report and other disclosures as follows:

Organic Sales per Sales Day - Organic sales per sales day is defined as GAAP “Net sales from the Industrial Distribution segment” less sales derived from acquisitions, divided by the number of sales days in a given period. Sales days are essentially business days that the Company's branch locations are open for business and exclude weekends and holidays.  Sales days are provided as part of this release. Management believes organic sales per sales day provides an important perspective on how net sales may be impacted by the number of days the segment is open for business and provides a basis for comparing periods in which the number of sales days differ.  

The following table illustrates the calculation of organic sales per sales day using “Net sales: Industrial Distribution” from the “Segment and Geographic Information” footnote in the “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” from the Company's Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 31, 2012. Sales from acquisitions are classified as organic beginning with the thirteenth month following the acquisition. Prior period informations is adjusted to reflect acquisition sales for that period as organic sales when calculating organic sales per sales day.

Sales days	63			63
Organic sales per sales day	$	3,793		$	3,796
% change	(0.1		)%	7.2		%

Free Cash Flow - Free cash flow is defined as GAAP “Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities” less “Expenditures for property, plant & equipment.” Management believes free cash flow provides an important perspective on the cash available for dividends to shareholders, debt repayment, and acquisitions after making capital investments required to support ongoing business operations and long-term value creation. Free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures as it excludes certain mandatory expenditures such as repayment of maturing debt. Management uses free cash flow internally to assess both business performance and overall liquidity. The following table illustrates the calculation of free cash flow using “Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities” and “Expenditures for property, plant & equipment”, GAAP measures from the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Table 4. Free Cash Flow (in thousands)
	For the nine months ended			For the six months ended			For the three months ended
	September 28, 2012			June 29, 2012			September 28, 2012
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	38,077		$	(4,501	)	$	42,578
Expenditures for property, plant & equipment	(19,565		)	(10,967		)	(8,598		)
Free Cash Flow	$	18,512		$	(15,468	)	$	33,980

Debt to Capitalization Ratio - Debt to capitalization ratio is calculated by dividing debt by capitalization. Debt is defined as GAAP “Notes payable” plus “Current portion of long-term debt” plus “Long-term debt, excluding current portion.” Capitalization is defined as Debt plus GAAP “Total shareholders' equity.” Management believes that debt to capitalization is a measurement of financial leverage and provides an insight into the financial structure of the Company and its financial strength. The following table illustrates the calculation of debt to capitalization using GAAP measures from the condensed consolidated balance sheets included in this release.

Debt	274,195			205,207
Total shareholders' equity	418,627			373,071
Capitalization	$	692,822		$	578,278
Debt to capitalization	39.6		%	35.5		%

Non-GAAP adjusted net earnings and Non-GAAP adjusted net earnings per common share diluted - Non-GAAP adjusted net earnings and Non-GAAP adjusted net earnings per common share diluted are defined as net earnings and diluted earnings per share, less items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the business for the period presented. These items are included in the reconciliation below. Management uses Non-GAAP adjusted net earnings and Non-GAAP adjusted net earnings per common share diluted to evaluate performance period over period, to analyze the underlying trends in our business and to assess its performance relative to its competitors. We believe that this information is useful for investors and financial institutions to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance.

The following table illustrates the calculation of Non-GAAP adjusted net earnings and Non-GAAP adjusted net earnings per common share diluted using “Net earnings” and “Diluted earnings per share” from the “Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations” from the Company's Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 31, 2012.
