* 2Q revenues: $60.1 million * 2Q diluted loss per share: $0.06
DANBURY, Conn., July 22, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ATMI, Inc. (Nasdaq:ATMI) today announced that revenues were $60.1 million for the second quarter of 2009, compared with $89.5 million in the second quarter of 2008. Net loss was $1.7 million, including $1.3 million of unusual pretax charges associated with our April cost reduction activities, compared with net income of $9.7 million a year ago. Loss per diluted share was $0.06 compared with earnings of $0.30 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2008.
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, revenues were $97.5 million, compared with $182.3 million in the same period of 2008. Loss per diluted share was $0.64 for the first six months of 2009, including $0.25 loss per share due to $12.5 million of unusual pretax charges, compared with diluted earnings per share of $0.62 in the same period of 2008.
"Improved manufacturing capacity utilizations, particularly within the foundries, drove increased demand for all of our products during the second quarter, in contrast to the significant order contraction we experienced in the first quarter. While our revenues continued to be negatively affected by excess inventory in the SDS(r) distribution channel, we think most of this is behind us," said Doug Neugold, ATMI Chief Executive Officer and President.
"Our cost reduction programs are on track," said Tim Carlson, Chief Financial Officer. "However, our margins were impacted by the negative product mix associated with lower SDS revenues." Carlson continued, "With limited visibility beyond the third quarter, we remain uncertain whether the recent trend of increasing capacity utilization will continue through the fourth quarter."
