Dorman Products, Inc. Reports Sales and Earnings for the Second Quarter Ended June 28, 2008
COLMAR, PA–(EMWNews – August 1, 2008) – Dorman Products, Inc. (
announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 28, 2008.
Sales increased 5% to $90.3 million for the three months ended June 28,
2008 from $85.8 million last year. Revenues for the six months ended June
28, 2008 were up 6% to $170.4 million from $160.1 million last year. The
favorable effect of foreign currency exchange and the acquisition of the
Consumer Division of Rockford Products Corporation accounted for
approximately 3% of the net sales increase in both periods. The remaining
increase is primarily the result of increased revenues from new product
sales.
Reported net income in the second quarter of 2008 was $5.2 million compared
to net income of $5.8 million in the same period last year. Reported
diluted earnings per share in the second quarter of 2008 were $0.29
compared to $0.32 in the same period last year. Prior year results include
a $0.01 per share benefit from a reduction in vacation expense as a result
of a change in our vacation policy. Excluding the impact of this
adjustment, net income in the second quarter of 2008 was $5.2 million
compared to net income of $5.5 million in the same period last year and
diluted EPS in the second quarter of 2008 decreased to $0.29 from $0.31 in
the same period last year.
For the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 and June 30, 2007:
-- Gross profit margin was 33.4% compared to 33.9% in the prior year. The decrease is primarily the result of higher material costs caused by higher commodity price increases and weakness in the U.S. dollar. -- Selling, general and administrative expenses for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 increased 12% to $21.5 million from $19.2 million in the same period last year. The increase is the result of higher variable costs related to our sales growth and increased staffing levels in product development, engineering and quality control. Results for the thirteen weeks ended June 30, 2007 also include a $0.3 million reduction in vacation expense due to the vacation policy change mentioned above. -- Interest expense, net, decreased to $0.3 million from $0.5 million due to lower interest rates. -- Our effective tax rate decreased to 37.8% in the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2008 from 38.1% in the same period last year. The decrease is primarily the result of the reversal of reserves upon completion of the audit of our 2005 tax year by the Internal Revenue Service.
Reported net income in the first six months of 2008 was $7.9 million
compared to net income of $9.8 million in the same period last year.
Reported diluted earnings per share in the six months ended June 30, 2008
were $0.44 compared to $0.54 in the same period last year. Excluding the
vacation adjustment discussed below, net income in the first six months of
2008 was $7.9 million compared to net income of $9.3 million in the same
period last year and diluted EPS for the first six months of 2008 decreased
to $0.44 from $0.52 in the same period last year.
Mr. Richard Berman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Sales
growth in the quarter was 5% due to challenging aftermarket conditions. We
also saw further increases in costs from rising commodity prices and the
weak dollar that have not been offset by selling price increases. These
factors combined to result in a decline in second quarter earnings. Our
balance sheet is strong and we remain confident in the long-term success of
our business despite these short term setbacks. We remain committed to
maintaining our leadership position in aftermarket with innovative new
products and solutions for our customers and end users.”

This change resulted in a reduction in our vacation accrual of $1.8 million in 2007, $0.4 million of which was recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2007, and $0.8 million of which was recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2007. The presentation of these non-GAAP measures is intended to enhance the usefulness of the financial information by providing measures which the Company's management uses internally to evaluate the Company's baseline performance.
