FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
UFP TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES STRONG Q2 RESULTS
Georgetown, Mass., August 3, 2011. UFP Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: UFPT), a manufacturer of packaging and component products, today reported net income of $2.7 million or $0.39 per diluted common share outstanding for its second quarter ended June 30, 2011, 18.4% higher than net income of $2.3 million or $0.34 per diluted common share outstanding for the same period in 2010. Sales for the second quarter of 2011 were $33.5 million or 11.8% higher than 2010 second quarter sales of $30 million. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2011, the Company reported net income of $4.9 million or $0.70 per diluted common share outstanding, compared to $3.8 million or $0.57 per diluted common share outstanding in the same 2010 period. Sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2011, were $65 million or 10.8% higher than sales of $58.7 million for the same 2010 six-month period.
“I am very pleased with our strong second quarter results,” said R. Jeffrey Bailly, Chairman & CEO. “Increased demand from our automotive, military, and molded fiber customers helped fuel our 12% organic sales growth, which translated into an 18% increase in our bottom line. The quarter also included investments in new products, IT infrastructure, quality systems, capital equipment, and more. We are continuing our efforts to identify strategic acquisition opportunities as well.”
“Overall, we are moving toward a vision of fewer, larger, more efficient manufacturing locations supported by strategically located technology centers,” Bailly continued. “For example, following the sale of our plant in Decatur, Alabama, we will transfer most of its programs to other UFP plants and are establishing a technology center in nearby Huntsville. It will function as a sales, engineering, and small-run production facility to service customers in that area and help us grow our high-end military case insert business.”
Bailly indicated some of the Alabama business will be moved to fill capacity at UFP’s Atlanta facility, which was recently scaled back. “As previously reported, a large portion of an automotive door panel program in Atlanta concluded at the end of the second quarter. We estimate the impact on sales will be approximately $625,000 per month in the third and fourth quarters, compared to the same 2010 periods,” said Bailly. “Moving forward, with our diverse capabilities, network of twelve factories, and strong balance sheet including $28 million in cash, I believe UFP is uniquely positioned in the industry and has a very bright future.”
