RF Industries' Third Quarter Sales Increase 17%; Net Income is $0.01 Per Diluted Share

Nine Month Sales Advance 19%; Net Income is $0.12 Per Diluted Share



RF Industries, Ltd., (NASDAQ:RFIL) announced results for the fiscal third quarter and nine months ended July 31, 2011.

Net sales increased 17% to a third quarter record $4,948,000 compared to record third quarter sales of $4,230,000 in the same quarter last year. Net income was affected by non-recurring expenses of approximately $503,000 for legal, accounting, investment banking and administrative expenses associated with the June 15, 2011 acquisition of Cables Unlimited Inc. and approximately $59,000 in additional consulting, legal, corporate and administrative expenses incurred in addressing certain stockholder issues and activities. After these expenses, net income for the third quarter was $63,000 or $0.01 per diluted share compared $312,000, or $0.05 per diluted share in the same period last year. In the third quarter of fiscal 2011, net income was affected by non-cash expenses for the write-off of Neulink inventory and goodwill impairment related to the Aviel acquisition of $248,000 and $137,000, respectively.

"Cables Unlimited contributed $909,000 to net sales for 45 days of the quarter. Excluding Cables Unlimited's sales, overall sales for RFI's continuing businesses were down 4.5% for the quarter, affected primarily by inventory adjustments and shipping delays from some of our major distributors. We believe these are adjustments and delays, not lost sales. Sales rates improved for August," said Howard Hill, CEO of RF Industries.

RF Connector & Cable segment sales declined 7.7% in the quarter to $3,274,000 from $3,546,000 in the same period last year. Gross margins for this segment were 54% compared to 56% of sales in the same quarter last year, due to the sales decline. The operating loss was $99,000 for the quarter, compared to an operating profit of $683,000 in the same quarter last year. Profitability for this segment was affected by $503,000 in non-recurring expenses related to the Cables Unlimited, Inc. acquisition as well as approximately $59,000 of other corporate expenses.

RFI manufactures, designs and distributes Radio Frequency (RF) coaxial connectors, cable assemblies, medical cabling products, RF wireless products and fiber optic cable products. Coaxial connectors, cable assemblies, custom microwave RF connectors, fiber optic cable, connector and harness products serve computer, aerospace, computer networking and specialty applications.

Chairman of the Board General Joseph Franklin made the following comment: "These results show Frequency is very much on track for our goals of strong revenue growth and increasing profitability this year. As in the preceding quarter this level of revenues reflects the continuing impact of recent new orders for commercial and U.S. Government satellite payloads. Most of our year-over-year revenue growth was generated in our FEI-NY operation. This segment accounted for all of our satellite business and it generated excellent operating profits on the increased revenues. Confirming the high priority of our U.S. Government business, the Company received notice since the end of the last quarter of additional funding on the seventh and eighth of twelve satellites on a long-term government program. Frequency previously completed work on the first six of these satellites. This global communications system is typical of critical government programs to which Frequency is a key supplier and which need to be funded on a continuing and timely basis."

Chief Financial Officer Alan Miller provided the following comment on the Company's financial report: "We maintained the revenue trend that began in the fourth quarter of last year and demonstrated our operational leverage by achieving an operating profit of $1.8 million or 11% of revenues. In the following quarters of this fiscal year, based on the current mix of programs, we expect to see improved gross margins and operating profits on a year-over-year basis. We also generated positive operating cash flow of approximately $2.7 million and at the end of the quarter our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities increased to $22.6 million."

Gold has been used by humans for thousands of years and the primary uses of this precious metal have not changed.

Gold is not affected by air and most reagents and is a very good conductor of heat and electricity. Heat, moisture, oxygen, and most corrosive agents have very little chemical effect on gold. This makes gold an excellent material for electrical switching mechanisms and plug contacts.
