• Operating income for the quarter improved 48 percent to $10.8 million, from the fourth quarter a year earlier. Fiscal 2013 operating income was $34.6 million and improved 44 percent over the prior year.

• Net income per share diluted improved 81 percent to $0.38 for the quarter, compared to net income of $0.21 per share diluted from the prior year fourth quarter. Fiscal 2013 net income per share diluted increased to $1.27 for a 59 percent improvement over the prior year.

The company reported sales revenue of $206.6 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013, an increase of 38.8 percent from $148.9 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter improved 76.8 percent to $22.1 million, or 10.7 percent of sales revenue, compared to $12.5 million or 8.4 percent of sales revenue for the fourth quarter of 2012. Improvements in operating performance are driven by increased sales volumes along with continuous improvements in operating, quality and productivity metrics.

For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, operating income improved over 48 percent to $10.8 million, compared to $7.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012.

The company reported net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013 of $6.5 million or $0.38 per share diluted, an improvement of 81 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2012 net income of $3.6 million or $0.21 per share diluted.

Fiscal 2013 Results:

For fiscal year 2013, operating income improved 44 percent to $34.6 million, compared to $24.1 million for fiscal year 2012. Net income for fiscal 2013 was $21.6 million or $1.27 per share diluted, an improvement of 59 percent from the prior year's net income of $13.5 million, or $0.80 per share diluted. The improvement reflects a 19.5 percent or $114.1 million growth in sales revenue, to $700.2 million for fiscal year 2013. The successful integration of strategic acquisitions, vehicle build volumes improving 5.3 percent over 2012 volumes, smooth product launches and productivity improvements are the drivers of the improved operating performance.

Cash Flow and Capital Structure

Net cash flow provided by operating activities for fiscal year 2013 totaled $38.8 million compared to $25.5 million in fiscal year 2012. Free cash flow (cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures) was $11.4 million for fiscal year 2013, compared to $8.4 million in fiscal year 2012. Fiscal year 2013 capital expenditures were $27.4 million compared to $17.1 million in fiscal year 2012.

On October 25, 2013, Shiloh entered into a credit agreement that provides for a $300 million secured revolving line of credit, which may be increased up to an additional $100 million, with an improved effective borrowing rate and a five-year term. Total borrowings under the agreement at October 31, 2013 were $117.4 million with availability of $180.2 million after considering the letters of credit Shiloh has issued.

"Shiloh's technology is in direct alignment with the automotive industry's mega-trend of lightweighting. The results we've seen this year are proof of the demand for our innovation, and our ability to efficiently and quickly meet the needs of our customers," said Ramzi Hermiz, president and chief executive officer. "As vehicle production levels continue to rise in North America, we are well positioned through our strategic acquisitions in 2013 to meet this demand and offer a wide portfolio of industry-leading lightweighting and NVH solutions for automakers in 2014 and beyond."
