Power Solutions International, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2012 Results

Net Sales Up 21% Year Over Year, 3% Sequentially

Net Income of $1.8 Million or $0.20 Per Diluted Common Share

WOOD DALE, Ill., Nov. 12, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Power Solutions International, Inc. (OTCBB:PSIX), a leader in the design, engineering and manufacture of emissions-certified alternative-fuel and conventional power systems, today announced its financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012. Net sales for the quarter were up 21% year over year and 3% sequentially. Both net income and adjusted net income were $1.8 million or $0.20 per diluted common share.

"Our company reported strong results this quarter while also preparing for substantial future growth," stated Gary Winemaster, Chief Executive Officer of Power Solutions. "During the quarter we relocated to expanded manufacturing facilities that should be able to support our growth to $500 million or more in annual sales. During that move, we sustained production, avoided unplanned costs, and recorded a new high in quarterly revenue. The robust secular trend to alternative-fuel power systems in industrial markets, along with our comprehensive product line, positions us well for future growth."

Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results

Net sales for the third quarter of 2012 were $51.7 million, an increase of 21% from the third quarter of 2011. Net sales increased 3% from the second quarter of 2012. Sales in the quarter were driven in part by growth in the Company's large power systems.

Gross profit for the third quarter of 2012 was $8.4 million, resulting in a gross margin of 16.3%. Gross margin improved when compared to the third quarter 2011 gross margin of 15.3%, due to higher sales volumes, better mix, and improved efficiency in the supply chain for the Company's material handling products.

Operating expense increased to 10.7% of sales in the third quarter, compared to 9.9% of sales in the third quarter of 2011. The increase was driven by larger investments in research and development, as well as greater general and administrative expenses associated with becoming a publicly traded company.

Operating expense in the third quarter of 2012 also includes costs of $303,000 ($182,000 after tax or $0.02 per diluted common share) incurred in connection with the relocation of the Company's production, warehousing and administrative offices into new facilities. These leased facilities enabled the Company to consolidate its production and warehousing into two principal facilities, as well as establish a separate facility exclusively for its research, development and engineering activities.

Operating income of $2.9 million increased 23% from the third quarter of 2011. Operating margin of 5.6% was slightly higher than the 5.5% recorded in the year-earlier period.

Other (income) expense for the third quarter includes a non-cash gain of $199,000 (or $0.02 per diluted common share) resulting from the decrease in the estimated fair value of the liability associated with the warrants issued in the Company's April 2011 private placement.

Net income for the third quarter of 2012, which includes the warrant revaluation adjustment and facility relocation costs, was $1.8 million, or $0.20 per diluted common share. This compares to net income of $1.9 million or $0.19 per diluted common share for the third quarter of 2011, which also includes a warrant revaluation adjustment.  Net income for the third quarter of 2012 adjusted to remove the warrant revaluation impact and facility relocation costs was also $1.8 million, or $0.20 per diluted common share. This compares to adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2011 of $1.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted common share.

 
Summary of Diluted EPS Attributable to Common Stockholders
"Adjusted" removes all impact of warrant revaluation and facility relocation costs
  Q3 2012 Q2 2012 Q3 2011 Seq. Growth Y/Y Growth
EPS $0.20 $0.33 $0.19 (39%) 5%
Adjusted EPS $0.20 $0.21 $0.13 (5%) 54%

Comparisons of per share results for the third quarter 2012 compared to the third quarter 2011 are impacted by the simplified capital structure under which the Company is now operating. As previously reported, all of the Company's outstanding shares of preferred stock were converted into common stock as of August 26, 2011.

The Company cautions that a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the development of the market for alternative fuel power systems, technological and other risks relating to the Company's development of its new 8.8 liter engine, introduction of other new products and entry into on-road markets (including the risk that these initiatives may not be successful), the significant strain on our senior management team, support teams, manufacturing lines, information technology platforms and other resources resulting from rapid expansion of our operations, changes in environmental and regulatory policies, significant competition, general economic conditions and the Company's dependence on key suppliers.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations

As used herein, "GAAP" refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Company uses certain numerical measures in this press release which are or may be considered "Non-GAAP financial measures" under Regulation G. The Company has provided below for your reference supplemental financial disclosure for these measures, including the most directly comparable GAAP measures and associated reconciliations.

The Company believes supplementing its consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP with non-GAAP measures provides investors with useful information regarding the Company's short-term and long-term trends. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per common share are derived from GAAP results by excluding the non-cash impact related to the change in the estimated fair value of the liability associated with the warrants issued in the Company's April 2011 private placement. The Company excludes this non-operating, non-cash impact, as the Company believes it is not indicative of its core operating results or future performance. The warrant revaluation results from facts and circumstances that fluctuate in impact and is excluded by management in its forecast and evaluation of the Company's operational performance. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per common share also exclude costs incurred associated with the Company's relocation of production, warehousing and administrative offices into new facilities. The Company excludes these costs as they, similar to the warrants, are not indicative of the Company's core operating results or future performance and are excluded by management in its forecast and evaluation of the Company's operational performance.

Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per common share and other non-GAAP financial measures used and presented by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. Investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
