Kevin R. Hoben, President and CEO, announced that the Companys Net Sales increased by 15.7% during the first six months of 2012, rising to $28,804,000 from $24,885,000 for the periods ending June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Net Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2012, increased 6.5% over the same period in 2011.
The Companys domestic operation has experienced consistent growth during 2012, with sales increasing approximately 20% over the previous year. The Companys success has been primarily driven by the Companys flagship product, TracPipe® CounterStrike®, along with a surge in the sales of the Companys emerging DoubleTrac® and DEF-Trac®, double-containment piping systems. The Companys United Kingdom operations have however slowed, as that territory, and Europe in general have shown signs of economic weakness.
The Companys Net Income for the first six months of 2012 was $4,397,000, topping last years income of $1,984,000 by a solid 121.6%. As previously disclosed, the six month results were enhanced by an insurance legal recovery of approximately $2,530,000 net of related costs. For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the Company had Net Income of $477,000, compared to $1,165,000 for the same period in 2011. The more prominent differences between the periods relate to additional marketing and administrative costs for specific projects that are not expected to continue at those levels for the balance of the year.
In summary, the Company is pleased with the revenue growth during the year, and looks to improve upon its profitability going forward through cost reduction measures.
