OREANDA-NEWS. Shiloh Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:SHLO), a leading global supplier of lightweighting, noise and vibration solutions, today reported financial results for its fiscal third-quarter 2016.

Third Quarter 2016 Highlights:

  • Revenue for the third quarter was $248.8 million, down from $266.1 million in the third quarter of 2015, due mainly to changes in customer production schedules and fewer shipping days in the quarter.
  • Gross margin for the third quarter increased 210 basis points to 9.7 percent compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2015 of 7.6 percent and sequentially expanded by 100 basis points.
  • Income before tax was $1.0 million with a net loss of $0.3 million, or $0.02 per share, after higher tax expense compared with net income of $2.0 million, or $0.11 per share, in the third quarter of 2015.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $17.2 million, resulting in an expanded adjusted EBITDA margin of 130 basis points compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2015.

"Our focus on providing leading lightweighting solutions and responsive service helped drive third quarter new business awards, which are expected to produce around $225 million of lifetime sales,” according to Ramzi Hermiz, president and chief executive officer. "We continue to make improvements in our operations as well. We generated $48 million in cash from operating activities year-to-date, helping to reduce long-term debt by $40 million since year end and we improved our margins. We remain positive given the underlying market need for lightweighting solutions and a cleaner environment, both of which are in full alignment with our strategy,” said Hermiz.
