ATMI Reports Second Quarter and First Half 2010 Financial Results

DANBURY, Conn., Jul 21, 2010 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX News Network) --

  --  2Q revenues: $91.0 million
  --  2Q earnings per diluted share: $0.24


ATMI, Inc. (Nasdaq:ATMI) today reported revenues of $91.0 million for the second quarter of 2010, compared to $60.1 million in the second quarter of 2009. Net income was $7.6 million for the quarter, compared to a loss of $1.7 million for the prior year period. Earnings per diluted share were $0.24, compared to a loss of $0.06 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2009.

For the six months ended June 30, 2010, revenues were $176.3 million, compared with $97.5 million in the same period of 2009. Net income was $16.3 million, with diluted earnings per share of $0.51 for the six months, compared to a net loss of $20.2 million ($0.64 per diluted share) for the same period in 2009, which included $12.5 million of unusual pre-tax charges associated with cost reduction and other activities.

"Our performance in the second quarter was generally consistent with industry trends, with global consumer electronics strength leading the way," said Doug Neugold, ATMI Chief Executive Officer and President. "In addition to the strong performance in our base business, we have begun to achieve Process of Record status for post-CMP and other cleans chemistries developed on our High Productivity Development platform to be used in our customers' leading edge processes. In our LifeSciences business, we won orders for multiple new applications at major producers, indicating the continued acceptance and adoption of single use technologies by an expanding customer base."

"We're demonstrating the effectiveness of leveraging our infrastructure, by having increased second quarter revenues more than 50% year on year, while keeping our SG&A growth rate below 10%," said Tim Carlson, Chief Financial Officer of ATMI. "Gross margins, at just under 48%, reflect strong copper materials growth and favorable product mix."
