In the quarter, net sales decreased 26% to $58.5 million from $79.3 million and net income decreased 8% to $7.7 million from $8.4 million from third quarter 2008. Earnings per diluted share were $0.45, down 4% from $0.47 for the same period a year ago, based upon 17.3 million and 17.5 million diluted shares outstanding for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared to September 30, 2008, respectively. Net sales for the first nine months of 2009 decreased 13% to $191.1 million from $219.5 million in 2008, and net income decreased 4% to $21.6 million from $22.5 million. Earnings per diluted share were $1.25 in 2009 and 2008, based upon 17.3 million and 18.0 million diluted shares outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared to September 30, 2008, respectively.
Norman H. Asbjornson, President and CEO, stated that, "The decrease in sales was attributable primarily to current economic conditions. The much lower decrease in net income (8% Net Income vs. 26% Sales) reflects a $1,005,400 reduction in cost of sales resulting from our hedging of copper, as well as outstanding operating performance due to production and labor efficiencies, lower material costs and reduced manufacturing related expenses." The $1,005,400 is a benefit to Net Income of $633,400 or $0.04 earnings per diluted share.
Mr. Asbjornson said that, "We expect the downturn in the economy which we experienced to an even greater extent in the third quarter will continue to impact our business for the foreseeable future; however, we have a strong liquidity position with cash on hand of $17.9 million at September 30, 2009, a record high quarter end amount. In view of the current economic environment, our goal remains to keep a healthy financial condition."
The Company will host a conference call today at 4:15 P.M. EST to discuss the third quarter results. To participate, call 1-877-737-1669.
