Owens & Minor to host Annual Investor Day on December 7, 2011 in New York
RICHMOND, VA….Owens & Minor, Inc. (NYSE-OMI) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011, including record quarterly revenue of $2.18 billion, improved 5.5% in comparison to revenue of $2.06 billion in the third quarter of 2010. Net income for the third quarter of 2011 was $33.4 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, an increase of nearly $2 million, or 5.9%, when compared to net income of $31.5 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the same period of 2010.
“During the third quarter, we worked very hard in a tough market to achieve solid results, including a strong top line and expense improvements,” said Craig R. Smith, president & chief executive officer of Owens & Minor. “As we finish out the year, we will continue to invest in the building blocks of our future with the upcoming conversion of a large new multi-state customer group, solidifying our third-party logistics business, implementing cost reduction measures, and establishing our new joint venture for sourcing in China.”
Operating earnings for the third quarter of 2011 were $58.5 million, or 2.69% of revenues, improved slightly when compared to the prior-year third quarter. In a sequential comparison, third quarter operating earnings improved to 2.69% of revenues from 2.39% of revenues in the second quarter of 2011. The sequential improvement in operating earnings resulted primarily from a reduction in selling, general & administrative expenses (SG&A). As a percentage of revenues, SG&A for the third quarter of 2011 was 7.02%, compared favorably to SG&A of 7.33% of revenues in the second quarter of 2011.
