AAON Reports Record Second Quarter Sales and Earnings


/EINPresswire.com/ -- TULSA, OK--(Marketwired - August 04, 2016) - AAON, Inc. (NASDAQ: AAON) today announced its operating results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016.

In the quarter, net sales were $102.3 million, up 13.3% from $90.3 million in 2015. Net income was $14.3 million, up 28.8% from $11.1 million in the same period a year ago. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $187.7 million, up 12.4% from $167.0 million in 2015. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $25.1 million, up 28.8% from $19.5 million in 2015. Both sales and earnings in 2016 were all-time records for any second quarter in the history of AAON.

Earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of 2016 were $0.27, up 35.0% from $0.20 for the same period the previous year, based upon 53.4 million and 54.7 million shares outstanding at June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Earnings per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $0.47, up 30.6% from $0.36 in 2015, based upon 53.4 million and 54.7 million shares outstanding at June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Norman H. Asbjornson, President and CEO, stated, "The addition of new regional sales managers in 2015 is starting to show results with our gains in sales for 2016, however, the market appears to have softened. The increased production volume has also created efficiencies to help us maintain and slightly grow our gross profit as a percentage of sales to 32.0% compared to 30.0% a year ago. We have also been able to control our SG&A expense, keeping SG&A expense as a percent of sales flat at approximately 10.3% for both the quarter and six months ended 2016 and 2015."

Mr. Asbjornson further added, "Our financial condition at June 30, 2016 remained quite strong with a current ratio of 2.7:1 (including cash and short-term investments totaling $44.3 million). We continue to remain debt free. Our backlog at June 30, 2016 increased 5% to $69.3 million, from $66.0 million for the same period a year ago."

Mr. Asbjornson continued, "We are looking forward to introducing our new Water Source Heat Pump line this quarter, but we don't expect significant results from this new line to impact profit until 2018. We continue to monitor steel prices and look for ways to maintain our gross profit with rising raw material costs, although we currently believe the impact to costs will be less than the equivalent of 2% of sales. The next six months will be a challenge, but we expect to have a successful year."

The Company will host a conference call today at 4:15 P.M. Eastern Time to discuss the second quarter results. To participate, call 1-888-241-0551 (code 50519850); or, for rebroadcast, call 1-855-859-2056 (code 50519850).

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), an additional non-GAAP financial measure is provided and reconciled in the following table. The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure, when considered together with the GAAP financial measures, provides information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results. The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure enhances the ability of investors to analyze the Company's business trends and operating performance.

EBITDAX

EBITDAX (as defined below) is presented herein and reconciled from the GAAP measure of net income because of its wide acceptance by the investment community as a financial indicator of a company's ability to internally fund operations.

The Company defines EBITDAX as net income, plus (1) depreciation, (2) amortization of bond premiums, (3) share-based compensation, (4) interest (income) expense and (5) income tax expense. EBITDAX is not a measure of net income or cash flows as determined by GAAP.

The Company's EBITDAX measure provides additional information which may be used to better understand the Company's operations. EBITDAX is one of several metrics that the Company uses as a supplemental financial measurement in the evaluation of its business and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income, as an indicator of operating performance. Certain items excluded from EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance. EBITDAX, as used by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The Company believes that EBITDAX is a widely followed measure of operating performance and is one of many metrics used by the Company's management team and by other users of the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (GAAP) to EBITDAX (non-GAAP) for the periods indicated:
