Remy International, Inc. (NASDAQ: REMY), a leading worldwide manufacturer, remanufacturer, and distributor of starters and alternators for light vehicle and commercial vehicle applications, locomotive products and hybrid electric motors, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013.
Second Quarter Highlights
- Net sales of $282.3 million for the second quarter of 2013, a decline of 4% compared to $294.8 million for the second quarter of 2012. The decline is due to unfavorable volume / mix in original equipment and hybrid partially offset by favorable aftermarket volume. The second quarter of 2012 benefited from a very strong North American commercial vehicle market and robust aftermarket orders.
- Adjusted EBITDA of $33.2 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared to $39.7 million for the second quarter of 2012. Second quarter 2013 results were impacted by planned investments in China and aftermarket businesses plus higher operating costs.
- Net income attributable to common stockholders was $11.4 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared to $17.4 million for the second quarter of 2012.
- In the second quarter, Remy completed the acquisition of the remaining 49% of its Remy Hubei Electric Joint venture from its Chinese joint venture partner thereby giving Remy 100% control of the entity. This action as well as our Wuhan plant launch more than double our capacity of alternators and significantly expands our starter capacity in China.

- China: Shanghai GM, Dongfeng Peugeot, Chongqing Yuan Huaihai Power Co.
- North America: hybrid contract with Odyne

Fred Knechtel, Remy International, Inc. Chief Financial Officer, added, “First half financial performance was in line with our expectations. The year-over-year decline was due to lower light duty original equipment and hybrid volumes, softer North American commercial vehicle demand, growth investments, one-time refinancing, restructuring and separation costs. Our operational restructuring and refinancing actions are expected to improve our cost structure for the second half of 2013.”
Jay Pittas, Remy International, Inc. President and CEO commented, “In the second quarter of 2013, we made significant progress executing our business plan to achieve future growth. Our investments to support the aftermarket helped drive increased sales. We completed the acquisition of the outstanding shares of our China Hubei joint venture and started production at our Wuhan facility. These provide increased control over our business, more than double existing alternator capacity and significantly expand our starter capacity in China. During the quarter, we realized the benefits of these investments with several new business awards with key Chinese customers. We remain confident that we have the right strategies in place to achieve long-term success for the Company.”
