CONSOLIDATED GRAPHICS REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL YEAR 2007 FINANCIAL RESULTS
— Fourth Quarter Revenues Up 19% to $263.9 Million —
— Fourth Quarter Non-GAAP Diluted EPS up 43% to $1.06 —
— Fourth Quarter GAAP Diluted EPS of $.50 Includes Non-Cash Goodwill Impairment —
HOUSTON, TEXAS — May 9, 2007 — Consolidated Graphics, Inc. (NYSE: CGX)today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and year-ended March 31, 2007.
Revenue for the March quarter was $263.9 million, up 19% compared to $221.9 million a year ago. Net income for the March quarter was $6.9 million, or $.50 per diluted share, which includes the impact of an after-tax $7.8 million, or $.56 per diluted share, non-cash goodwill impairment, which was determined when the Company completed its annual evaluation of goodwill in the fourth quarter. Excluding the goodwill impairment, net income was $14.8 million compared to $10.5 million a year ago, resulting in a 43% increase in diluted earnings per share to $1.06 from $.74 in the prior year.
Pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles, each of the Company’s facilities is separately evaluated annually for impairment of goodwill because they comprise individual reporting units under the Company’s business model. Upon completion of the required evaluation, the Company concluded that the goodwill at four locations should be impaired. In the aggregate, these facilities account for approximately 3% of the Company’s total sales. Also, each of these facilities generates positive cash flow; accordingly, the Company is evaluating steps that can be taken to improve their financial performance.
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, revenue was a record $1.01 billion, up 14% compared to $879.0 million in fiscal 2006. Net income in 2007 was $50.7 million, or $3.65 per diluted share. Excluding the goodwill impairment mentioned above, net income in 2007 was $58.6 million compared to $38.5 million in 2006, resulting in a 54% increase in diluted earnings per share to $4.21 from $2.73 in the prior year.

Commenting on the results, Joe R. Davis, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Consolidated Graphics stated, “The fourth quarter wrapped up an outstanding year of growth in sales and profits for Consolidated Graphics. Many factors contributed to this growth, including acquisitions, strong internal sales growth, incremental operating efficiencies, better purchasing power, and our continued investment in technology. I am confident that we can continue to execute on our strategy, expand our industry-leading position and further leverage our competitive advantages for continued growth.”
Mr. Davis concluded, “We have a lot of momentum and foresee a strong start to fiscal 2008. For the June quarter, we project quarterly revenues to increase 12% from the prior year to $268 million, with EBITDA projected to be $38 million, up 10% from the prior year, and sequentially flat relative to the March quarter. Diluted earnings per share for the June quarter is projected at $.98, and includes an expected increase in our overall effective tax rate to 38% in fiscal 2008 from 36.6% in fiscal 2007, which included a one-time income tax benefit in the June quarter. Compared to the March quarter results, the projections for the June quarter also include an incremental after-tax charge of $.04 per share for stock-based compensation expense, reflecting our typical timing patterns for this expense over the course of the year.”
A reconciliation and basis for management’s use of the non-GAAP financial results referred to above was included in a filing made today by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is also included in the attached table.
