The company reported income from operations of $25.0 million for the quarter compared to $14.2 million, excluding special items, recorded in the same period of 2009. Operating income, as reported, was $12.8 million in the prior year.
Specialty Minerals Segment: PCC & Processed Minerals
Third quarter worldwide sales for the Specialty Minerals segment increased 2 percent to $166.1 million from the $162.5 million recorded in the same quarter of 2009 due to volume increases in both businesses. Income from operations increased 25 percent to $19.7 million from the $15.8 million, excluding special items, recorded in the same period in 2009.
Worldwide sales of PCC, which is used primarily in the manufacturing processes of the paper industry, declined 1 percent to $136.8 million from the $137.5 million recorded in the third quarter of 2009. Foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact on sales of approximately $2.3 million, or 2 percentage points. Processed Minerals products third quarter sales increased 17 percent to $29.3 million from the $25.0 million in the same period last year, primarily as a result of a 45-percent increase in talc sales. Processed Minerals products serve the residential, commercial construction and automotive markets.
Refractories Segment
Refractories segment sales in the third quarter of 2010 increased 17 percent to $83.7 million from $71.8 million recorded in the same period in 2009. Refractory volumes increased 17 percent from the third quarter over the prior year as a result of the improvement in the steel industry over the past year. Metallurgical products sales increased 22 percent to $18.3 million from the $15.0 million recorded in the prior year. The Refractory segment, which produces products used primarily in the steel market, recorded operating income, excluding special items, of $6.3 million compared to an operating loss of $1.1 million in the prior year.
Comparisons to Second Quarter 2010
The company's worldwide sales in the third quarter declined 2 percent to $249.8 million
from $255.8 million in the second quarter. Income from operations was $25.0 million, a 9-percent decline from the $27.5 million in the second quarter.
Specialty Minerals Segment: PCC & Processed Minerals
The Specialty Minerals segment's worldwide sales in the third quarter decreased 1 percent to $166.1 million from $168.2 million in the prior quarter. Income from operations increased 4 percent to $19.7 million from $19.0 million in the second quarter, excluding special items. This increase occurred as a result of improved productivity in the PCC product line and a more favorable product mix in Processed Minerals.
Worldwide sales of PCC were $136.8 million, a 1-percent decline from the $138.4 million recorded in the prior quarter due to seasonal maintenance shutdowns in Europe.
In Processed Minerals, third quarter sales decreased 2 percent to $29.3 million from $29.8 million in the prior quarter. Volumes were down 6 percent from the second quarter of 2010 due to the seasonal nature of the construction industry and lower automobile production. The volume declines were partially offset by a more favorable product mix, primarily in the talc product line.
Refractories Segment
In the company’s Refractories segment, sales for the third quarter were $83.7 million, down 4 percent from the $87.6 million recorded in the prior quarter.
Sales of refractory products and systems declined 4 percent in the third quarter to $65.4 million from $68.3 million in the second quarter. This decline occurred as a result of a softening in the North American steel industry and some discrete shutdowns in steel mills where the company provides its services. Sales in the metallurgical product line decreased 5 percent sequentially to $18.3 million from $19.3 million in the previous quarter due to reduced demand for flat-rolled products. Operating income declined 34 percent to $6.3 million from $9.6 million in the prior quarter, excluding special items. This decline was due to lower volumes and higher raw material costs.
Nine Months Results
The company recorded net income of $51.0 million for the first nine months compared to a loss of $27.9 million for the same period in the prior year. Earnings per share for the nine months was $2.72 compared to a loss per share of $1.49 for the first nine months of 2009. Excluding special items, earnings per share were $2.73 as compared with $0.93 per share in the prior year.
Minerals Technologies’ worldwide sales for the first nine months of 2010 increased 17 percent to $759.0 million from $651.1 million in the same period last year. Foreign exchange had a favorable impact on sales of $8.4 million or 1 percentage point of growth. Operating income, excluding special items, for the nine months increased 178 percent to $76.4 million compared to $27.5 million recorded in the prior year. The company reported an operating loss in the prior year of $21.5 million due to impairment and restructuring charges.
Worldwide sales for the Specialty Minerals segment for the nine months increased 11 percent to $506.4 million from the $458.1 million recorded in the same quarter of 2009 due to volume increases in both businesses. Income from operations, excluding special items, increased 48 percent to $57.9 million from the $39.1 million recorded in the same period in 2009.
Refractories segment sales for the nine months increased 31 percent to $252.6 million from $193.0 million recorded in the same period in 2009. The Refractory segment recorded operating income, excluding special items, of $21.8 million compared to an operating loss of $10.2 million in the prior year.
“Our performance for the first three quarters of 2010 reflects the changes we made in 2009 to reduce costs and improve productivity, as well as improvement in the overall economy. As a result we have been able to triple our operating income in the first nine months of 2010. We are now a much stronger operating company.” said Mr. Muscari. “Looking ahead, there remains some uncertainty in the economy, but our balance sheet remains strong and our global competitiveness in our core Paper PCC business is expanding. We’re looking forward to creating additional opportunities for future growth.”

During the second quarter of 2009, as a result of the continuation of the severe downturn in the worldwide steel industry, the Company initiated a restructuring program, primarily in the Refractories Segment, to improve efficiencies through consolidation of manufacturing operations and reduction of costs. This realignment was put in place to better position ourselves strategically for improved profitability when the economy recovers. As part of this program, the Company consolidated its Old Bridge, New Jersey, operation into Bryan, Ohio, and Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in order to improve operational efficiencies and reduce logistics for key raw materials; rationalized its North American specialty shapes product line; rationalized some of its European operations; recorded further impairment charges of its Asian refractor y operations as a result of continued difficulties in market penetration as well as consolidated its Asian operations and is actively seeking a regional alliance to aid in marketing its high value products; recognized impairment charges for refractory application equipment in North America and Europe due to customer underutilized assets under depressed volume conditions; recorded | |||||||||||||||

3) | To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the following is a presentation of the Company's non-GAAP income (loss), excluding special items, for the quarterly periods ended October 3, 2010, July 4, 2010 and September 27, 2009 and the nine month periods ended October 3, 2010 and September 27, 2009 and a reconciliation to net income (loss) for such periods. The Company's management believes these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance as inclusion of such special items are not indicative of the ongoing operating results and thereby affect the comparability of results between periods. The Company feels inclusion of these non-GAAP measures also provides consistency in its financial reporting and fa cilitates investors' understanding of historic operating trends. | ||||||||||||||

4) | Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. The following is a presentation of the Company's non-GAAP free cash flow for the quarterly periods ended October 3, 2010, July 4, 2010 and September 27, 2009 and the nine month periods ended October 3, 2010 and September 27, 2009 and a reconciliation to cash flow from operations for such periods. The Company's management believes this non-GAAP measure provides meaningful supplemental information as management uses this measure to evaluate the Company's ability to maintain capital assets, satisfy current and future obligations, repurchase stock, pay dividends and fund future business opportunities. Free cash flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures since the Company has certain non-disc retionary obligations such as debt service that are not deducted from the measure. The Company's definition of free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. | ||||||||||||||

The decrease in free cash flow in the third quarter 2010 when compared to second quarter 2010 and third quarter 2009 primarily relates to the effects of net changes in working capital. Working capital decreased cash flows by approximately $7 million compared to the second quarter 2010. Days working capital increased from 54 days to 57 days during this quarterly period, primarily due to increases in inventories. Working capital decreased cash flows by approximately $19 million compared to the third quarter 2009. However, days working capital decreased by 11 days to 57 days in the third quarter 2010 from 68 days in the third quarter of 2009. | |||||||||||||||
5) | During the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company exited its Synsil® Products product line and reclassified such operations as discontinued. In addition, the Company reclassified to discontinued operations its two Midwest plants located in Mt. Vernon, Indiana, and Wellsville, Ohio. In 2008, the Company sold its Synsil Plants and its operations at Wellsville, Ohio. In the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company sold its facility at Mt. Vernon, Indiana. | ||||||||||||||

To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the following is a presentation of the Company's non-GAAP operating income, excluding special items (the restructuring and impairment costs set forth in the above table), for the three-month periods ended October 3, 2010, July 4, 2010 and September 27, 2009, and the nine-month periods ended October 3, 2010 and September 27, 2009, constituting a reconciliation to GAAP operating income set forth above. The Company's management believe these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance as inclusion of such special items are not indicative of ongoing operating results and thereby affect the comparability of results between periods. The Company feels inclusion of these non-GAAP measures also provides consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates investors' understanding of historic operating trends. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
