	SAN ANTONIO, July 25, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rush Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq:RUSHA) (Nasdaq:RUSHB), which operates the largest network of commercial vehicle dealerships in North America, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012. The Company's net income for the quarter was $17.4 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, compared with net income of $12.5 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, in the quarter ended June 30, 2011.</p><p>
	"Our strategy to expand the scope of aftermarket solutions we provide to the commercial vehicle market combined with our ability to offer a diverse product lineup of new trucks into a range of market segments continues to result in excellent financial performance for the Company. This was evidenced by our ability to set new records this quarter for aftermarket parts, service and body shop revenues as well as medium-duty new truck sales and market share," said W. M. "Rusty" Rush, President and Chief Executive Officer for Rush Enterprises, Inc.</p><p align="center">
	<strong><i>Operations</i></strong></p><p>
	Aftermarket services accounted for more than 62% of the Company's total gross profits for the second quarter of 2012. Second quarter parts, service and body shop revenues increased by 22% as compared to second quarter 2011.&#160;This contributed to a quarterly absorption ratio of 117.7%, also another record.&#160;</p><p>
	"Our parts, service and body shop activity remained strong as a result of increased service needs of aging vehicles, continued service activity in the energy sector and expanded service offerings.&#160; We believe that providing the right service solution to meet any customer's need differentiates us from our competition. &#160;We are extremely pleased to see our philosophy has resulted in record aftermarket service revenues this quarter," said Rusty Rush.</p><p>
	"We employ more than 1,400 factory-trained service technicians within our coast-to-coast network of Rush Truck Centers with about 100 technicians currently staffing customer job sites and shops.&#160;We also operate 185 mobile service units that provide job site vehicle maintenance and repair as well as emergency roadside assistance," Rusty Rush explained.&#160;</p><p>
	"In addition, we recently doubled our service bay capacity in Fort Worth, Texas; in September, we will relocate our existing Phoenix operations to a new facility that will more than triple our service capabilities; have broken ground on a new facility in Ardmore, Oklahoma; plan to begin construction this fall of a new truck center in Corpus Christi, Texas; and have begun plans for a new facility in San Antonio, Texas to be completed in 2013," continued Rusty Rush.</p><p>
	"To better support our natural gas customers, four Rush Truck Centers in Arizona, Georgia and Texas are now equipped to service compressed natural gas vehicles with plans to bring an additional six facilities online in key markets by year end.&#160;Currently, 70 of our technicians have been certified to work on natural gas vehicles, with an additional 30 technicians scheduled to complete certification over the next few months," Rusty Rush added.</p><p>
	"We continue ramp-up at our Custom Vehicles Solutions modification and upfit operations in Texas. &#160;Given our initiatives to expand aftermarket services, we expect parts, service and body shop revenues to remain strong," Rusty Rush added.&#160;</p><p>
	Rush's Class 4-7 medium-duty sales increased 41% over the second quarter of 2011, outpacing the U. S. Class 4-7 market, which increased 11% for the same time period.&#160;Rush's Class 4-7 market share accounted for 5.0% of the total U.S. market, up from 3.9% in the second quarter of 2011.&#160;"This growth is primarily the result of increased new truck sales to medium-duty fleets across the country along with strong performance by our Ford franchises," said Rusty Rush.&#160;Rush's second quarter light-duty truck sales also increased by 9% as compared to the second quarter of 2011. &#160;&#160;</p><p>
	In the second quarter Rush's Class 8 retail sales, which &#160;accounted for 5.3% of the U.S. market, increased by 19% over the same time period in 2011.&#160;"Our performance in Class 8 truck retail sales this quarter was primarily driven by strong activity in the energy sector and replacement truck deliveries to larger fleets," explained Rusty Rush.&#160;</p><p>
	"Used truck sales and residual values remained steady throughout the quarter and are expected to continue at current levels for the remainder of 2012," Rusty Rush added.</p><p>
	&#160;"We expect U.S. Class 8 retail sales will reach approximately 180,000 to 185,000 units by year end.&#160;Reduced order intake during the past several months could result in as much as a 20% decrease in new truck deliveries during the second half of 2012.&#160;Although business for most of our customers remains steady, we believe that fleet decision makers will exercise caution in making new truck replacement purchases during the second half of the year due to current political and fiscal uncertainty.&#160;We expect that as these uncertainties subside, order intake should increase by year end," said Rusty Rush.</p><p>
	Current industry forecasts indicate an increase in 2013 U. S. Class 8 retail sales to 227,000 units.&#160;"This is driven primarily by the need for replacement trucks to offset the age of fleet vehicles and should result in an improved truck sales market next year," said Rusty Rush.&#160;Industry experts also forecast U. S. Class 4-7 retail sales to be at 160,000 units in 2012 and 184,000 units in 2013.</p><p>
	"I would like to congratulate all employees for their efforts in contributing to another quarter of record-setting performance," said W. Marvin Rush, Chairman and Founder of Rush Enterprises.&#160;"I remain extremely proud of the Rush organization and am confident that we have the strategies in place to deliver continued good financial results well into the future."</p><p align="center">
	<strong><i>Financial Highlights</i></strong></p><p>
	In the second quarter, the Company's gross revenues totaled $835.8 million, a 26% increase from gross revenues of $662.0 million reported for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011.&#160;</p><p>
	Parts, service and body shop sales revenue was $208.3 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $170.4 million in the second quarter of 2011.&#160;The Company delivered 2,813 new heavy-duty trucks, 2,141 new medium-duty commercial vehicles, 343 new light-duty commercial vehicles and 1,242 used commercial vehicles during the second quarter of 2012, compared to 2,363 new heavy-duty trucks, 1,514 new medium-duty commercial vehicles, 314 light-duty commercial vehicles and 1,156 used commercial vehicles during the second quarter of 2011.</p><p style="text-align: center">

	<strong><u>Absorption Ratio</u></strong></p><p>
	Management uses several performance metrics to evaluate the performance of its commercial vehicle dealerships, and considers Rush Truck Centers' "absorption ratio" to be of critical importance.&#160;Absorption ratio is calculated by dividing the gross profit from the parts, service and body shop departments by the overhead expenses of all of a dealership's departments, except for the selling expenses of the new and used commercial vehicle departments and carrying costs of new and used commercial vehicle inventory.&#160;When 100% absorption is achieved, then gross profit from the sale of a commercial vehicle, after sales commissions and inventory carrying costs, directly impacts operating profit.</p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="6" style=" border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 6px ">

	Management uses "Adjusted Total Debt" to reflect the Company's estimated financial obligations less debt related to lease and rental fleet (L&amp;RFD) and floor plan notes payable (FPNP), and "Adjusted Net Debt" to present the amount of Adjusted Total Debt net of cash and cash equivalents on the Company's balance sheet.&#160;The FPNP is used to finance the Company's new and used inventory, with its principal balance changing daily as vehicles are purchased and sold and the sale proceeds are used to repay the notes.&#160; Consequently, in managing the business, management views the FPNP as interest bearing accounts payable, representing the cost of acquiring the vehicle which is then repaid when the vehicle is sold, as the Company's credit agreements require it to repay loans used to purchase vehicles when such vehicles are sold.&#160; The Company's lease &amp; rental fleet are fully financed and are either (i) leased to customers under long-term lease arrangements or (ii), to a lesser extent, dedicated to the Company's rental business.&#160; In both cases, the lease and rental payments fully cover the capital costs of the lease &amp; rental fleet (i.e., the principal repayments and interest expense on the borrowings used to acquire the vehicles and the depreciation expense associated with the vehicles), plus a profit margin for the Company.&#160;The Company believes excluding the FPNP and L&amp;RFD from the Company's total debt for this purpose provides management a more accurate picture of the Company's capital structure and leverage profile and assists investors in performing analysis that is consistent with financial models developed by Company management and research analysts.&#160;"Adjusted Total Debt" and "Adjusted Net Debt" are both non-GAAP financial measures and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's debt obligations, as reported in the Company's consolidated balance sheet in accordance with U.S. GAAP.&#160;Additionally, these non-GAAP measures may vary among companies and may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures used by other companies.</p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="6" style=" border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 6px ">
