Power Solutions International, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2014 Results


Net sales up 45% year over year, 13% sequentially

Adjusted net income of $4,365,000 or $0.39 per diluted common share

Net income of $8,431,000 or $0.68 per diluted common share

WOOD DALE, Ill., Nov. 6, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Power Solutions International, Inc. (Nasdaq:PSIX), a leader in the design, engineering and manufacture of emissions-certified alternative-fuel and conventional power systems, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014.

Third Quarter 2014 Results

Net sales for the third quarter of 2014 were $93,972,000, an increase of 45% from $64,628,000 in the third quarter of 2013 and a 13% sequential increase from $83,378,000 in the second quarter of 2014. Contributing to the sales increase was continued growth in the Company's heavy-duty power generation systems and aftermarket parts sales. Also contributing to net sales in the period were sales of approximately $6.3 million from Professional Power Products, Inc. which was acquired on April 1, 2014.

Operating income was $7,519,000, an increase of 82% from $4,122,000 in the third quarter of 2013, and a sequential increase of 28% from $5,893,000 in the second quarter of 2014. Operating margin of 8.0% in the current quarter compares to 6.4% in the comparable prior year period and 7.1% in the second quarter of 2014.

"Our results this quarter demonstrate the resilience of our business model and market opportunities," stated Gary Winemaster, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Power Solutions. "Solid demand across our end-markets drove strong sales growth and attractive gross margin expansion."

Winemaster continued, "We reached a critical milestone in our on-road efforts this quarter, with Navistar's announcement that they will use the PSI 8.8 liter engine for an alternative-fuel option in their ICC school bus product line. We believe this design win is the first of many to come and demonstrates the strength of our products and strategy. By focusing on medium duty fleets and offering a complete drop-in power system solution, we enable OEMs to introduce alternative fuel options inexpensively and quickly."

Other income for the third quarter includes a non-cash gain of $858,000 resulting from a decrease in the estimated fair value of the liability associated with the warrants issued in the Company's April 2011 private placement. In addition, other income for the third quarter includes a non-cash gain of $3,208,000 resulting from a decrease in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability recorded in connection with the acquisition of Professional Power Products, Inc.

Net income for the third quarter of 2014, which includes the warrant revaluation adjustment and contingent consideration liability revaluation, was $8,431,000, or $0.68 per diluted common share. This compares to a net loss of $9,981,000 or $0.97 per diluted common share for the third quarter of 2013, which also includes a warrant revaluation adjustment.

Net income for the third quarter of 2014, adjusted to remove the warrant revaluation impact and contingent consideration liability revaluation was $4,365,000, or $0.39 per diluted common share. This compares to adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2013 of $2,624,000 or $0.24 per diluted common share, which has been adjusted to remove the warrant revaluation impact.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations

As used herein, "GAAP" refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Company uses certain numerical measures in this press release which are or may be considered "Non-GAAP financial measures" under Regulation G. The Company has provided below for your reference supplemental financial disclosure for these measures, including the most directly comparable GAAP measures and associated reconciliations.

The Company believes supplementing its consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP with non-GAAP measures provides investors with useful information regarding the Company's short-term and long-term trends. Adjusted net income is derived from GAAP results by excluding the non-cash impact related to the change in the estimated fair value of the liability associated with the warrants issued in the Company's April 2011 private placement. The Company excludes this non-operating, non-cash impact, as the Company believes it is not indicative of its core operating results or future performance. The warrant revaluation results from facts and circumstances that fluctuate in impact and is excluded by management in its forecast and evaluation of the Company's operational performance. Adjusted earnings per diluted common share is also derived from GAAP results by excluding the non-cash impact,even when antidilutive, related to the change in the estimated fair value of the liability associated with the warrants. Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per diluted common share also include an adjustment to remove the revaluation of the contingent consideration liability recorded in connection with the Company's acquisition of Professional Power Products, Inc., which was completed on April 1, 2014. The Company believes that this non-cash item, similar to the warrant related impact on earnings, is not indicative of the Company's core operating results or future performance. These costs are excluded by management in its forecast and evaluation of the Company's operational performance.

Adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per diluted common share and other non-GAAP financial measures used and presented by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
