FARMINGTON, Conn., May 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- EDAC
Technologies Corporation (OTC:EDAC.OB) (BULLETIN BOARD: EDAC.OB) ,
a designer and manufacturer of tools, fixtures, jet engine
components, injection molds and spindles, today reported results
for the first quarter of 2006. Sales for the first quarter of 2006
were $9,596,000 and net income was $293,000 or $0.06 per diluted
share, versus sales of $8,016,000 and net income of $963,000 or
$0.20 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2005. The first
quarter of 2005 benefited from debt forgiveness of $750,000. Income
from operations for the quarter decreased slightly from $620,000 in
2005 to $611,000 in 2006 due to $226,000 of costs incurred in the
first quarter 2006 associated with expansion of our manufacturing
capacity by approximately 24,000 square feet and other
non-recurring expenditures. Dominick A. Pagano, President and Chief
Executive Officer, said, "We are very pleased with the continued
strong results. Our total backlog increased from $21,700,000 at the
end of the fiscal 2005 to $25,000,000 at the end of the first
quarter. As recently announced, our Precision Aerospace product
line has received over $10.6 million in orders since the beginning
of the year including EDAC's first military contract in excess of
$1 million. We are also pleased that all of our long-term debt is
at fixed rates of interest. Our 2006 capital plan includes
approximately $3.7 million in machinery and equipment additions to
increase production requirements and capacity. Through the first
quarter we have invested over $1 million in machinery and equipment
and have made commitments for an additional $1.5 million. We've
made these investments to meet our sales backlog requirements and
to further position us for future growth. We will continue to
pursue opportunities that will strengthen EDAC for the long term."
