ALLIED MOTION TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Date: March 16, 2006 /s/ Richard D. Smith -------------------- Richard D. Smith Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer EX-99.1 2 a5104067ex991.txt EXHIBIT 99.1 PRESS RELEASE Exhibit 99.1 Allied Motion Reports Profits for the Quarter and Year Ended December 31, 2005 DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 16, 2006--Allied Motion Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: AMOT) today announced it achieved net income for the year ended December 31, 2005, of $923,000 or $.13 per diluted share compared to net income of $2,250,000 or $.36 per diluted share last year. Revenues for the year increased 18% to $74,302,000 compared to $62,738,000 last year. Of this 18% increase, revenues from existing businesses decreased 9% points and incremental revenues achieved by the companies acquired in 2004 contributed 27% points of the increase. This year's results include the results from Stature Electric, Inc., a subsidiary that was acquired on May 10, 2004, in connection with the Owosso Corporation merger and also from Precision Motor Technology B.V. (Premotec), a subsidiary that was acquired on August 23, 2004. During the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company achieved net income of $4,000 or $.00 per diluted share compared to $603,000 or $.09 per diluted share for the same period last year. Revenues were $18,891,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, compared to $18,344,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. Backlog at December 31, 2005, was $25,172,000, or a 17% increase from the beginning of the year. "The financial results we achieved in the 4th quarter and for 2005 were disappointing," commented Dick Smith, CEO of Allied Motion. "The decline in profits during 2005 was due to several factors -- a significant unfavorable profit swing at Stature, one of our new operating companies, a drop in sales of some of our higher margin business, the investment made to establish our Asian manufacturing capability and incremental inventory reserves that were provided for excess and obsolete inventory. We were also delayed in getting our production ramped up at our Asian manufacturing facility which resulted in us not achieving the cost improvements that we anticipated. We believe we have either gotten these issues behind us or we have made progress in resolving the issues so that they will not have as much of an adverse effect on us in 2006. We still have some challenges at Stature but we should start to see an improvement in its operations as we progress through 2006. While we are disappointed by the decrease in profits for 2005, we have continued to execute our strategy that is building the foundation necessary to achieve our long-term goals for growth in sales and profitability, as well as to facilitate our continued expansion into the motion control industry." Dick Warzala, President of Allied Motion, added: "The significant investments we made in Asia during 2005 have been made with a long-term outlook towards cost reduction and the top line growth of our business. We are now producing and shipping products from this facility and with the cost structure it provides, we are able to compete for several significant new projects and secure existing business that will help us achieve our internal growth goals in the future. Our product development efforts and AST implementation will further enhance our competitiveness and we remain committed to manage our Company to achieve our long term goals." Headquartered in Denver, Colorado, Allied Motion designs, manufactures and sells motion control products into applications that serve many industry sectors. Allied Motion is a leading supplier of precision and specialty motion control components and systems to a broad spectrum of customers throughout the world.
