ELMWOOD PARK, N.J., May 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Kreisler Manufacturing Corporation (NASDAQ:KRSL) announced sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 of $14.0 million and net income of $922,000 compared to sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 of $10.2 million and net income of $72,000. Operating income for the period improved to $1.5 million as compared to operating income of $90,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2005. Year-over-year sales increased 37%. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, the Company's sales totaled $5.4 million compared to $3.8 million for the same period last year, an increase of 42%. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 totaled $441,000 compared to the prior year net income of $99,000. The Company reported diluted earnings per share of $0.24 and $0.50, respectively, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.05 and $0.04, respectively, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005.
"The Company continued to benefit from sales growth in the markets in which it participates," said Kreisler CEO Michael Stern. "For the nine months ended March 31, 2006, the Company experienced year-over-year component sales increases of 43% to the commercial aircraft engine market, 27% to the military aircraft engine market and 79% to the industrial gas turbine market. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, the year-over-year sales increases were especially significant in the commercial aircraft and industrial gas turbine markets as sales increased 70% and 232%. Given the global competitiveness and cyclicality of the aerospace and industrial gas turbine markets, we remain focused on improving our manufacturing capabilities through the use of lean manufacturing techniques in our operations at Kreisler Industrial and utilizing the technical skill and lower cost environment at Kreisler Polska." Stern added, "The Company's order backlog as of March 31, 2006 increased 36% to $20.9 million compared to a $15.4 million order backlog a year earlier. Backlog increased 24% compared to the $16.8 million backlog at June 30, 2005. The $375,000 decline in cash on hand from $3.4 million as of June 30, 2005 to $3.0 million at March 31, 2006 reflects the increased working capital needs associated with the Company's sales growth, including the increased reliance on Kreisler Polska as a supplier of machined components to Kreisler Industrial." Stern also noted that Kreisler Industrial continued shipping fuel manifolds for the Trent 1000 engine used on the Boeing 787 Dreamliner and is scheduled to produce approximately 2 engine sets per month through December 2007. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is scheduled to enter service in 2008. The fuel manifolds were shipped under a 10-year long-term agreement.

reclassified to conform to March 31, 2006 presentation. The Company has
reclassified certain employee payroll and benefit expenses from cost of
goods sold to selling, general and administrative expenses. This
resulted in an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses
of $124,154 and $375,026, respectively, for the three and nine months
ended March 31, 2005 and a corresponding equivalent decrease in cost of
goods sold. This reclassification has no effect on the net income of the
Company for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005. The Company
has also separated interest expense from selling, general and
administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended March 31,
2006 and March 31, 2005. This separation increases income from
operations but has no effect on the income before income taxes of the
Company for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and
March 31, 2005.
