FOURTH QUARTER 2014 RESULTS

Net sales for the fourth quarter were $288.4 million, compared to net sales of $286.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2013. Value-added sales were $167.0 million, up $9.8 million, or 6%, compared to value-added sales of $157.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2013 and up sequentially $1.4 million from the third quarter of 2014. The $167.0 million of fourth quarter value-added sales represents the third consecutive quarter of record level quarterly value-added sales. The growth in value-added sales in the fourth quarter compared to the same period of last year was due primarily to stronger demand from customers in the consumer electronics, medical and telecommunications infrastructure markets.

Operating profit for the fourth quarter of 2014 totaled $13.9 million, a 34% increase over the prior-year fourth quarter adjusted operating profit. Adjusted operating profit margin, expressed as a percent of value-added sales, expanded by 170 basis points to 8.3% from the prior-year fourth quarter levels. The margin improvement is a result of the higher sales volume and management delivering on the forecasted cost savings from the facility closures, pebbles plant improvement and product line rationalizations completed in early 2014.
