Nogales, Arizona – November 4, 2015 – Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. (NYSE MKT: APT), a leading manufacturer of products designed to protect people, products and environments, including disposable protective apparel and building products, today announced financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Consolidated sales for the third quarter decreased 7.8% to $12.2 million, from $13.2 million for the comparable quarter of 2014. Building Supply segment sales for the three months ended September 30, 2015 decreased by 13.0% to $7.4 million, compared to $8.5 million for the same period of 2014. The sales mix of the Building Supply segment for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was 63% for synthetic roof underlayment, 32% for housewrap and 5% for other woven material. This compared to 65% for synthetic roof underlayment, 31% for housewrap and 4% for other woven material for the third quarter of 2014. Sales for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment for the three months ended September 30, 2015 increased 6.7% to $3.7 million, compared to $3.5 million for the same period of 2014. Infection Control segment sales for the three months ended September 30, 2015 decreased by $160,000, or 13.2%, to $1.05 million, compared to $1.21 million for the same period of 2014.

Al Millar, President and CEO of Alpha Pro Tech, commented, “Our Disposable Protective Apparel segment continued to gain traction in the third quarter as we increased sales to our major international supply chain partner and to national and regional distributors. This increase was partially offset by a decline in our Infection Control segment sales as a result of a difficult year-over-year comparison, due to sales in the third quarter of last year driven by an increased demand for products designed to fight against the spread of Ebola and a decline in our Building Supply segment sales due to a changing product mix, from our premium to lower priced economy products.”

“In the Building Supply segment, we remain optimistic about the continued opportunities that we see for our lower priced TECHNO family of products and believe that we will experience a rebound in sales of our premium REX™ synthetic roof underlayment in the first quarter of 2016,” continued Millar. “From a market perspective, we believe customers are beginning to realize that the cheap quality import products may not offer true cost savings in the long run.”

Consolidated sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 decreased 1.4% to $34.9 million, from $35.4 million for the comparable period of 2014. This decrease was attributable to decreased sales in the Building Supply segment of $1.2 million, partially offset by increased sales in the Disposable Protective Apparel segment of $562,000 and increased sales in the Infection Control segment of $104,000.

Building Supply segment sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 decreased by $1.2 million, or 5.4%, to $20.3 million, compared to $21.5 million for the same period of 2014. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in sales of housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment. Although total sales for the Building Supply segment were down, the TECHNO family of synthetic roof underlayment products showed growth, with an increase in sales of 43.1%. Sales of the REX™ Wrap Fortis (breathable housewrap) continue to be slower than anticipated but increased 11.2% for the first nine months of 2015 as compared to the same period of 2014.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2015 decreased by 1.6% to $4.8 million, compared to $4.9 million for the same period in 2014. The gross profit margin was 39.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2015, compared to 37.0% for the same period of 2014. Gross margin was positively affected by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection issuing a retroactive Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) refund for duty paid on eligible products, which increased gross profit margin by 5.0% for the third quarter of 2015. The GSP is a U.S. trade program designed to promote economic growth in the developing world by providing preferential duty-free entry for products from designated beneficiary countries. The GSP provides a retroactive duty refund to be applied to eligible goods entered after July 31, 2013 through July 28, 2015. Certain Building Supply and Disposable Apparel segment products were eligible for this refund and will remain duty free under this program until at least December 31, 2017. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 decreased 3.5% to $12.5 million, or 35.9% gross profit margin, from $13.0 million, or 36.7% gross profit margin, for the same period of 2014. The GSP duty refund positively affected gross profit margin by 1.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Management expects gross margin to improve under this GSP duty free program.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased by 18.1% to $3.9 million for the third quarter of 2015, from $3.3 million for the same quarter of 2014. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased to 26.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2015, from 24.9% for the same period of 2014. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to an accrual of $601,000 related to the retirement of the Company’s former CEO in the latter part of the third quarter of 2015, as well as increased legal fees. SG&A expenses increased by $1.0 million, or 10.3%, to $11.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, from $10.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased to 31.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, from 28.1% for the same period of 2014. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to the $601,000 retirement accrual discussed above, increased legal costs and an increase in foreign exchange losses due to a weaker Canadian dollar.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2015 decreased to $306,000, compared to $966,000 for the same period in 2014, a decrease of 68.3%. The decrease was partially due to a decrease in income before provision for income taxes of $873,000, partially offset by a decrease in income taxes of $213,000. Net income as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was 2.5% and 7.3%, respectively. Basic and diluted earnings per common share for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $0.02 and $0.05, respectively. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $741,000, compared to $2.1 million for the same period in 2014, a decrease of 65.2%. Net income as a percentage of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was 2.1%, and net income as a percentage of net sales for the same period of 2014 was 6.0%. Diluted earnings per common share for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $0.04 and $0.11, respectively.

The consolidated balance sheet remained strong with a current ratio of 15:1 as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. As of September 30, 2015, cash increased to $6.6 million, from $5.5 million as of December 31, 2014. The Company ended the third quarter of 2015 with working capital of $31.5 million.

Inventory increased by $1.3 million, or 8.0%, to $17.9 million as of September 30, 2015, from $16.5 million as of December 31, 2014. The increase was primarily due to an increase in inventory for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment of $1.3 million, or 29.5%, to $5.9 million, and an increase in inventory for the Building Supply segment of $203,000, or 2.3%, to $8.9 million, partially offset by a decrease in inventory for the Infection Control segment of $229,000, or 6.9%, to $3.1 million. Inventory as of the end of the third quarter of 2015 decreased $1.4 million compared to the prior quarter of 2015, with all three segments down, led by a $1.0 million decrease in the Building Supply segment.

Lloyd Hoffman, Chief Financial Officer, commented, “At the end of the quarter, we had $1.9 million available for additional stock purchases under our stock repurchase program. Year-to-date, we have repurchased 664,100 shares of common stock at a cost of $1.5 million, bringing the program total to 12,208,631 shares of common stock at a cost of $17.7 million since the program’s inception. Future repurchases are expected to be funded from cash on hand and cash flows from operating activities.”

The Company currently has no outstanding debt and maintains an unused $3.5 million credit facility. The Company believes that current cash balances and the borrowings available under its credit facility will be sufficient to satisfy projected working capital needs and planned capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.
