Thursday May 15, 2009 15:00 pm ET
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
GEDERA, Israel, May 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ TAT Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: TATTF News ), reported today its results for the three month period ended March 31, 2009.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
TAT Technologies Ltd. (TAT), directly and through its subsidiaries, provides a variety of services and products to the military and commercial aerospace and ground defense systems industries. Such products and services primarily include the design, development, manufacture, maintenance and repair of (i) a broad range of heat transfer components (such as heat exchangers, pre-coolers and oil/fuel hydraulic coolers) used in mechanical and electronic systems on-board commercial, military and business aircraft; (ii) environmental control and cooling systems on board aircraft and for ground applications; and (iii) a broad range of electrical motion applications for airborne and ground systems.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
TAT announced net income of $1.1 million on revenues of $24.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to net income of $1.5 million on revenues of $22.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Default"
Revenues from the companys four principal lines of business for the three month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were as follows:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2009 | 2008 | |||||||
| Revenues | % of Total Revenues | Revenues | % of Total Revenues | |||||
| In Thousands | ||||||||
| Revenues: | ||||||||
| MRO Services | $ 11,484 | 46.8 | % | $ 12,985 | 58.4 | % | ||
| OEM - Heat Transfer products | 7,680 | 31.3 | % | 6,479 | 29.1 | % | ||
| OEM - Electric Motion Systems | 3,736 | 15.2 | % | - | - | |||
| Parts Services | 2,637 | 10.8 | % | 4,135 | 18.6 | % | ||
| Elimination | (994 | ) | (4.1 | )% | (1,356 | ) | (6.1 | )% |
| Total Revenues | 24,543 | 100.0 | % | 22,243 | 100.0 | % |
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
The 10% increases in revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2009 compared with the three month period ended March 31, 2008, reflect increased revenues in the OEM operations due to organic growth in the OEM of Heat Transfer products segment, as well as revenues in the OEM of Electric Motion Systems segment derived from the companys 70% controlled subsidiary, Bental Industries Ltd. which did not exist during the first quarter of fiscal 2008; offset by decreased revenues in the MRO services segment and in the Parts services segment.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"
The 29.4% decrease in net income for the three month period ended March 31, 2009 compared with the three month period ended March 31, 2008, is primarily attributable to the decrease in the net income of our 62% held subsidiary, Limco-Piedmont from $1.0 million in the three month period ended March 31, 2008 to a loss of $0.2 million in the three month period ended March 31, 2009 partially offset by improved results for the Companys operations in Israel for the three month period ended March 31, 2009 compared with the three month period ended March 31, 2008.
MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para (List) Flush Lv 0- TNR" FSL="Workstation"
Dr. Shmuel Fledel, TATs CEO commented: The first quarter of year 2009 saw encouraging revenue growth for the TAT group, compared to the same period ended March 31, 2008, in large part due to our acquisition on August 18, 2008 of 70% of Bental Industries Ltd. We have improved our results of operation in Israel while experiencing a decrease in our revenues and gross margins in our operations in the U.S.. We are taking aggressive expense control measures, including the consolidation of our two US based operating entities into one location, in order to further improve the results of operations in the future.
