Analyst Update: Dividend Declaration, Quarterly Financials and Operating Results
Reviewed by: Rohit Tuli, CFA®

The U.S. stock market on Wednesday ended the day in green, following the Federal Reserve's (Fed) dovish tone at the conclusion of its two-day meeting, shrugging off the falling oil worries and deflationary concerns. Fed's Chairwoman Janet Yellen sounded positive on the economy but noted that there was room for improvement. Yellen also stated that inflation is running below the Fed's 2% target inflation rate, but expects to see normalization.  The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) recorded their best one day performance in 2014. The S&P 500 advanced 2.04%, DJIA gained 1.69%, and the Nasdaq Composite moved up 2.12%. Asian markets were mixed on Wednesday as investors awaited the outcome of the Federal Reserve policy meeting. The European stock market also witnessed a late recovery, as a rebound in energy stocks and new signs of economic stimulus measures from the European Central Bank lifted shares.

Newport Corporation (Newport) reported strong net sales and non-GAAP net income for Q3 FY 2014 (period ended September 27, 2014). Orders by end market also increased from $144.4 million in Q3 FY 2013 to $147.3 million in Q3 FY 2014, driven by increased orders in the Company's life and health sciences, scientific research and industrial manufacturing and other end markets.

NF Energy Saving Corporation (NF Energy) reported a massive 120.3% YoY increase in its total revenue for Q3 2014. Net income improved to $0.33 million from a net loss of $0.03 million in Q3 2013. Product revenue for Q3 2014 increased 196.3% YoY to $2.9 million and the gross profit increased 109.9% YoY to $0.89 million.

NN Inc.'s Board of Directors declared quarterly dividend of $0.07 per share of common stock on November 11, 2014. The dividend will be paid on December 19, 2014, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 5, 2014. The Company also reported strong third quarter 2014 financial results with adjusted income from operations of $10.6 million, up 35.9% YoY.

Nordson Corporation (Nordson) reported record sales for its fourth quarter and full year 2014. The Company expects its first quarter 2015 sales to increase 5% to 9% over prior year. Q1 FY 2015 GAAP diluted EPS is expected to be in the range of $0.60 to $0.70.
