PALL REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL YEAR 2006 RESULTS
Sales in Fourth Quarter Grow 14%, Surpass $2 Billion Milestone for the Year
East Hills, NY (September 12, 2006) -- Pall Corporation (NYSE: PLL) today reported sales and earnings results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended July 31, 2006.
Fourth Quarter Results
Sales for the quarter were $597.3 million and net earnings were $62.8 million, or $0.50 per share, as compared to sales of $524.5 million and net earnings of $43.4 million, or $0.34 per share, in the same quarter last year.
On a pro forma basis, fourth quarter net earnings were $62.2 million, or $0.50 per share, compared to pro forma net earnings of $59.2 million, or $0.47 per share, in the same quarter last year. Foreign currency translation increased sales by 2% and earnings per share by 1 cent in the quarter, and the impact of stock compensation and SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment”, reduced earnings per share by 2 cents.
Eric Krasnoff, Chairman and CEO, said, “Pall’s fourth quarter results benefited from continued strong demand across virtually all of our markets and regions. Sales growth in our Microelectronics, Aerospace and BioPharmaceuticals segments stood out, growing 23%, 20% and 13%, respectively. Our sales growth strategies are making steady progress.
Improvement in our gross margin is a major area of focus. The success of our systems business, which reached 12% of sales in the quarter, and 9% for the year, is currently contributing to margin compression. Capital spending by our customers in many of our core markets is robust as we see from the top line results. This business is expected to foster a sustainable improvement in margins as our systems go on line and replacement filters are ordered. The positive impact of ongoing cost reductions and Pall’s facilities rationalization initiative will also be felt. The achievement of price increases is key and we are now seeing growing acceptance by customers across markets.”

Cost Reduction & Facilities Rationalization Program
Pall’s previously announced facilities rationalization program is on track. Our objective remains to achieve annualized cost savings of $40 million and annualized tax savings of $10 million by the end of fiscal year 2008. We plan to accomplish this by reducing our global footprint by 20%, or approximately 1.2 million square feet. This represents the closure of up to 12 facilities.
“The importance of our facilities rationalization program and initiatives to improve gross margins throughout the organization is underscored by the continuing rise in energy and commodity costs.” Mr. Krasnoff continued. “Our initiatives to make our manufacturing plants leaner as well as our other cost reduction strategies are aimed squarely at improving margins. SG&A has been reduced by 90 basis points as a percentage of sales despite the 44 basis point cost taken to recognize stock compensation. We expect cost of sales improvements will follow as we execute the key programs.”
Full Year Results
Reported sales for the full year increased 6% to just over $2 billion and net earnings were $145.5 million, or $1.16 per share, as compared to sales of $1.9 billion and net earnings of $140.8 million, or $1.12 per share, in fiscal year 2005. Local currency sales for the full year were up 8%. On a pro forma basis, net earnings for the full year were $169.7 million, or $1.35 per share, excluding restructuring and other charges primarily related to cost-cutting and the facilities rationalization program of $0.05 per share, net of related pro forma tax effect, and a one-time charge related to the repatriation of foreign subsidiary net earnings of $0.14 per share as compared to pro forma net earnings of $167.7 million, or $1.34 per share, in fiscal year 2005. The effect of foreign currency translation reduced sales by 2% and earnings per share by 1 cent and the impact of stock compensation and SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment,” reduced earnings per share by an additional 7 cents.

Guidance
“We were pleased to deliver 8% sales growth for fiscal year 2006, and to have made steady progress on our profit improvement efforts, albeit progress that has not yet shown through to Pall’s bottom line. As we head into 2007, our overall order backlog is 36% higher than at the start of 2006, reflecting strong increases in both consumables and systems products. We believe Pall is well positioned to capitalize on global market trends that are driving increasing demand for our filtration and separation products and process expertise. With the progress we are making in our Total Fluid ManagementSM strategy coupled with our simplified organizational structure and cost reduction initiatives, we are confident that Pall will continue to deliver strong top-line growth, coupled with significant profit improvement. We expect fiscal 2007 earnings per share to be in the range of $1.45 to $1.60.”
