Diluted EPS Up 19% for Quarter & 13% for the Year
ALLEN, TX -- (Marketwired - February 24, 2014) - Atrion Corporation (NASDAQ: ATRI) announced today that for the fourth quarter of 2013 revenues were $31.9 million compared to $28.5 million in the same period of 2012, net income increased to $5.8 million from $4.9 million in last year's quarter, and diluted earnings per share were up to $2.87 from $2.42. For the full year 2013, Atrion's revenues increased to $132.0 million from $119.1 million in 2012, net income was up to $26.6 million from $23.6 million, while diluted earnings per share increased to $13.18 from $11.66 in 2012.
Commenting on the Company's performance, David A. Battat, President & CEO, said, "I am pleased that all our major product categories exhibited higher revenues in the recently concluded quarter as well as the full year compared to the 2012 periods, resulting in an overall increase in revenues of 12% for the quarter and 11% for the full year. The impact on operating income was even more significant, with the quarter's results up 18% while the full year was up 13%."
Mr. Battat added, "During 2013 we increased spending over the prior year by $2.7 million on research and development and the acquisition of third-party patents. This effort was aimed at new product development and should continue at elevated levels for the next 3 years as we extend and enhance our product pipeline. We will support these developments with additional capital for tooling and automation when these new products are ready for the market." Mr. Battat continued "During the year we purchased 36,666 shares of common stock at an average price of $251 per share. Our year-end balance of cash and long and short term securities of $57.0 million compares favorably with the prior year-end total of $44.6 million."
Mr. Battat concluded, "In 2014, despite increasing outlays for our product development, and the muddled economic outlook in international markets where 42% of our sales are destined, we expect to continue to show growth in revenues and diluted earnings per share."
Atrion Corporation develops and manufactures products primarily for medical applications. The Company's website is www.atrioncorp.com.
