Gibraltar Reports First-Quarter Financial Results
Buffalo, New York, May 2, 2013 Gibraltar Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: ROCK), a leading manufacturer and distributor of products for building and industrial markets, today reported its financial results for the three month period ended March 31, 2013. All financial metrics in this release reflect only the Companys continuing operations unless otherwise noted.
First-Quarter Financial Results
Gibraltars net sales for the first quarter of 2013 rose 2.4% to $196.8 million, compared with $192.2 million for the first quarter of 2012. First-quarter 2013 adjusted net income was $1.2 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared with $2.6 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2012. The adjusted first-quarter 2013 results exclude after-tax special charges of $4.9 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, resulting primarily from costs related to the Companys successful re-financing of its senior subordinated notes, which lowered the interest rate by 175 basis points. The adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2012 excluded after-tax special charges totaling $1.2 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, primarily consisting of exit activity and acquisition-related costs. Including these items in the respective periods, the first-quarter 2013 GAAP results were a net loss of $3.6 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared with GAAP net income of $1.4 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2012.
Management Comments
We experienced positive developments in some key areas of our business in the first quarter as expected, said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Brian Lipke. However, the unusually cold and stormy weather patterns that affected many parts of the country, particularly in March, along with increased pricing pressures in some of our industrial markets and tighter inventory control in some of our sales channels, resulted in a slower start in 2013 than we had expected. As a result, despite increased sales from recent acquisitions, Gibraltars 2.4% net sales growth for the quarter fell two percentage points short of our guidance. Although the year started more slowly than we anticipated, we continue to be optimistic that 2013 will show solid full-year improvement over 2012 as basic fundamentals in several of our end markets continue to move in a positive direction.
5
There were mixed sales results in our markets during the first quarter, said Henning Kornbrekke, President and Chief Operating Officer. Industrial demand weakened more than we expected in March, primarily in the wholesale distribution channel which ultimately serves a broad cross section of end markets. In addition, selling prices were lower driven by weaker demand levels. These factors affected our sales in North America, as well as in Europe, where the depressed automotive and construction markets we serve are a large part of our business. Product demand also was softer than we had expected in the residential and low-rise building markets, including repair and remodeling, due to unfavorable weather across large parts of the U.S. during the latter half of the quarter. This was a solid quarter for us, however, in the multi-family building market and in our infrastructure products business. Our revenue outlook in both of these important markets continue to be favorable, and we expect continued growth in 2013. We expect the industrial end markets we serve to see improved pricing and margins as the environment for end user demand improves in the second half of the year.
Our strategy during the past five years has been to improve our underlying operations and expand margins in every part of the business with the goal of leveraging even modest levels of end-market growth into stronger profitability, said Kornbrekke. We have worked to position our businesses to be the low cost supplier with excellent customer service to be consistently competitive in even the most challenging market environments. A result of these efforts was the expected margin improvement in our West Coast operations reported in the quarter.
In 2012 we essentially completed the restructuring and integration of our West Coast operations by combining four separate businesses into one unit and implementing a range of operational initiatives, said Kornbrekke. The resulting West Coast performance improvement contributed adjusted earnings of $0.03 per share in the quarter. We expect further performance improvement in our West Coast operations as 2013 unfolds, driven in part by our exit from a major facility by year-end. At the same time, our stronger retail and wholesale delivery platform in this region of the country will support the growth in sales that we anticipate.
Outlook
In spite of the current industrial end market weakness which is expected to continue into the third quarter of 2013 and the slower-than-expected start to the year, we continue to expect 2013 revenues and earnings to be an improvement over 2012 as we benefit from our fourth-quarter 2012 acquisition activity, lower interest expense, improved West Coast operational performance and overall end-market demand improvement, said Lipke.
First-Quarter Conference Call Details
Gibraltar has scheduled a conference call today to discuss its results for the first quarter of 2013, starting at 9:00 a.m. ET. Interested parties may access the call by dialing (877) 407-5790 or (201) 689-8328.

Safe Harbor Statement
Information contained in this news release, other than historical information, contains forward-looking statements and is subject to a number of risk factors, uncertainties, and assumptions. Risk factors that could affect these statements include, but are not limited to, the following: the availability of raw materials and the effects of changing raw material prices on the Companys results of operations; energy prices and usage; changing demand for the Companys products and services; changes in the liquidity of the capital and credit markets; risks associated with the integration of acquisitions; and changes in interest and tax rates. In addition, such forward-looking statements could also be affected by general industry and market conditions, as well as general economic and political conditions. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law or regulation.
Non-GAAP Financial Data
To supplement Gibraltars consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, Gibraltar also presented certain adjusted financial data in this news release. Adjusted financial data excluded special charges consisting of restructuring primarily associated with the closing and consolidation of our facilities, acquisition-related costs, and note re-financing costs. These adjustments are shown in the Non-GAAP reconciliation of adjusted operating results excluding special charges provided in the financial statements that accompany this news release. We believe that the presentation of results excluding special charges provides meaningful supplemental data to investors, as well as management, that are indicative of the Companys core operating results and facilitates comparison of operating results across reporting periods as well as comparison with other companies. Special charges are excluded since they may not be considered directly related to our ongoing business operations. These adjusted measures should not be viewed as a substitute for our GAAP results, and may be different than adjusted measures used by other companies.
Next Earnings Announcement
Gibraltar expects to release its financial results for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2013, on Thursday, August 1, 2013, and hold its earnings conference call later that morning, starting at 9:00 a.m. ET.
