Triumph Group Reports Fourth Quarter and Year End Fiscal 2007 Results
Communiqué publié le 04/05/2007 à 01h44

Triumph Group, Inc. (NYSE:TGI) today reported that, for the fiscal year 2007, net sales totaled $954.7 million, a twenty-six percent increase from fiscal year 2006 net sales of $760.4 million. Net income for fiscal year 2007 increased thirty-six percent to $47.1 million, or $2.87 per diluted common share, versus $34.5 million, or $2.15 per diluted common share, for fiscal year 2006. During this fiscal year, the company generated $47.7 million of cash flow from operations.

Net sales for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2007 were $263.5 million, a twenty-four percent increase from last fiscal year's fourth quarter net sales of $211.9 million. Net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007 increased thirty percent to $14.2 million, or $0.86 per diluted common share, versus $11.0 million, or $0.68 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year. During the quarter, the company generated $27.0 million of cash flow from operations. Results for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007 included $0.03 per share charge related to stock-based compensation.

Prior year period segment results have been changed to classify certain revenue and costs from the Aftermarket Services segment to the Aerospace Systems segment for the operation of Triumph Fabrications-Phoenix and Triumph Fabrications-Fort Worth due to the fact that most of their product line has been transitioned to aerospace OEM products. The transitioning of these business units resulted in the shift of approximately $6.6 million in revenue and $2.4 million in operating loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, previously reported in the Aftermarket Services segment, to the Aerospace Systems segment. Segment results have been adjusted to reflect these changes.

The Aerospace Systems segment reported net sales for fiscal year 2007 of $750.9 million, compared to $600.0 million for the prior fiscal year, an increase of twenty-five percent. For the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007, the segment's net sales increased twenty-three percent to $206.9 million from $168.8 million for the prior fiscal year period. Operating income for fiscal year 2007 was $101.6 million, compared to $66.0 million for the prior fiscal year, an increase of fifty-four percent. For the quarter, operating income increased fifty-six percent to $30.2 million versus $19.4 million for the prior fiscal year quarter. Organic sales growth for the fiscal year 2007 was sixteen percent.

The Aftermarket Services segment reported net sales for fiscal year 2007 of $206.3 million, compared to $164.0 million for the prior fiscal year, an increase of twenty-six percent. For the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007, the segment's net sales increased thirty percent to $57.2 million from $44.0 million for the prior fiscal year period. Operating income for fiscal year 2007 was $8.4 million, compared to $4.6 million for the prior fiscal year, an increase of eighty-three percent. For the quarter, operating income increased 496 percent to $1.6 million versus $0.3 million for the prior fiscal year quarter. Organic sales growth for the fiscal year 2007 was fourteen percent. Operating costs in excess of revenue associated with the new Thailand maintenance and repair facility was $0.9 million for the quarter and $3.4 million for the fiscal year 2007. In addition, the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 included a charge of $1.2 million related to a change in the method of accounting for power by the hour contracts.

Richard C. Ill, Triumph's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Triumph had an excellent fiscal year 2007. Continued improvement in both our OEM and aftermarket markets resulted in strong growth in revenue, operating income and earnings across our core businesses. Our record level of backlog is a clear indication of the success of our products and strategy and provides us with strong momentum heading into fiscal 2008 and beyond."

In commenting on the outlook for fiscal year 2008, Mr. Ill said, "We expect to see continued growth in customer demand across our operations in fiscal year 2008. We project sales in the range of $1.1 billion to $1.2 billion and earnings per share for the fiscal year of $3.60 to $3.80."
