Vought Reports Second Quarter 2004 Earnings

printer-friendly version (word document)


 

DALLAS , AUGUST 10, 2004 - Vought Aircraft Industries, Inc. today reported financial results for its second quarter ending June 27, 2004.

Net sales for the second quarter 2004 were $294.2 million, an increase of 7.3 percent compared to $274.2 million in the same period a year ago. The increase in net sales is due to the acquisition of The Aerostructures Corp. in July 2003 partially offset by lower C-17 revenues. Net loss for the second quarter 2004 was $14.8 million, compared to net earnings of $5.3 million for the same period last year. Net loss in the second quarter 2004 was impacted by restructuring and facility consolidation charges of $15.5 million related to the company's Feb. 26 announcement to consolidate its Nashville, Tennessee and Stuart, Florida operations to its Dallas facility and higher net interest expense. Adjusted EBITDA, as defined by our senior secured credit agreement, for the second quarter 2004 was $44.0 million, compared to $40.5 million for the same period last year.

“Our strategy is to sustain the appropriate focus on our consolidation activities and continue our efforts to win new military and commercial business,” said Vought's President and Chief Executive Officer Tom Risley. “We must also maintain the product quality levels we have in our deliveries to current customers.”
