STANDEX REPORTS SECOND-QUARTER FISCAL 2014 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Reports $0.83 in EPS from Continuing Operations; $0.88 in Non-GAAP EPS from Continuing Operations

SALEM, NH – February 3, 2014 . . . . Standex International Corporation (NYSE:SXI) today reported financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2014 ended December 31, 2013.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2014 Results from Continuing Operations

§

Net sales increased to $172.2 million from $168.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013.

§

Income from operations was $15.3 million, compared with $16.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 included, pre-tax, $0.6 million in restructuring charges, $2.1 million of non-recurring management transition expense, and a non-recurring, net gain of $2.0 million associated with insurance proceeds received during the quarter. The second quarter of fiscal 2013 included, pre-tax, $1.0 million of restructuring charges and $0.1 million of acquisition-related costs. Excluding these items from both periods, the Company reported non-GAAP second-quarter fiscal 2014 operating income of $16.0 million, compared with $17.3 million in the year-earlier quarter.

§

Net income from continuing operations was $10.6 million, or $0.83 per diluted share, including, after tax, $0.5 million in restructuring charges, $1.5 million of non-recurring management transition expense, and a non-recurring, net gain associated with insurance proceeds of $1.4 million. This compares with second-quarter 2013 net income from continuing operations of $11.0 million, or $0.86 per diluted share, which included, after tax, $0.6 million of restructuring charges and $0.1 million in acquisition-related costs. Excluding the aforementioned items from both periods, non-GAAP net income from continuing operations was $11.2 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, compared with $11.7 million, or $0.92 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2013.

§

EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) was $19.1 million, compared with $20.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Excluding the previously mentioned items from both periods, EBITDA for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $19.9 million, compared with $21.4 million in the year-earlier quarter.

§

Net working capital (defined as accounts receivable plus inventories less accounts payable) was $130.3 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2014, compared with $129.9 million a year earlier. Working capital turns were 5.3 for the second quarter of fiscal 2014, compared with 5.2 turns for the year-earlier quarter.

§

The Company closed the quarter with net cash of $2.0 million, compared with net debt positions $4.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and $29.0 million second quarter of fiscal 2013

A reconciliation of net income, earnings per share and net income from continuing operations from reported GAAP amounts to non-GAAP amounts is included later in this release.

Management Comments

“This was a quarter of continued soft demand in our Food Service Equipment business partially offset by strong performance in Engraving, Electronics and Hydraulics,” said President and CEO David Dunbar. “Our growth and profitability also were negatively affected by a difficult year-over-year comparison at our Engineering Technologies segment due to a one-time payment from a customer contractual settlement in the prior year impacting sales in the amount of $1.9 million and operating income in the amount of $700,000. Industry trends in Food Service remain challenging, with weakness in consumer activity and slower capital equipment purchasing at several of our key accounts and market segments. However, given our recent restructurings in Food

Service and our plans to take additional costs out of this part of the business, as well as the strength of our new product pipeline, we believe Standex will realize profit leverage as demand in this segment recovers.1 We continue to feel good about our overall strategy for the business.1

Segment Review

Food Service Equipment Group sales decreased 2.9% year-over-year, with operating income declining 23.4%.

“On the refrigeration side of the business, sales to several large quick serve restaurant and convenience store chains were down from the second quarter last year,” said Dunbar. “In part, this reflects a shift in capital investment by franchisees and chains away from food service equipment and in favor of other store related capital investments. We see this as a temporary shift in focus and not a long-term trend.1 Another issue this quarter was the unseasonably cold weather in much of the country, which resulted in delays in new store construction. On a more positive note, our refrigeration business with smaller chains was up by double digits in the quarter.”

“In our cooking solutions business, we experienced another slow quarter for sales to chains and to the U.S. government,” Dunbar said. “Our seasonal spare parts supply business was soft as well. The early signs of strengthening in the U.S. grocery store segment that we saw last quarter became even more evident in the second quarter, and we are seeing this improvement in our project pipeline. However, these gains continued to be offset by the deteriorating grocery store environment in Europe, particularly in the U.K. We are making good progress on our strategy to drive cooking solutions revenue growth by rolling out new products. Following our launch of a new line of countertop griddles and charbroilers in the first quarter, we introduced a new value line deck oven in the second quarter. Both product lines have been well-received. Looking ahead, we plan to substantially expand our portfolio of Cooking Solutions products during the second half of fiscal 2014 by introducing a new value line combi oven as well as a mini combi oven and speed oven.1”

“We continued to move forward during the second quarter on our longer-term margin improvement strategy in Food Service,” said Dunbar. “The consolidation of our Cheyenne, Wyoming, Cooking Solutions facility remains on schedule. We expect to substantially complete the production transfer to Mexico and other locations in the US by the end of fiscal 2014 and to realize $4 million per year in annual savings, benefiting from approximately 75% of the savings rate in the first half of fiscal 2015 and from the full annualized run rate in the second half of that year.1 We also are making good progress on the new finished goods distribution center for Cooking Solutions in Dallas. One of the three product lines planned for that facility began shipping on schedule during the second quarter, and we continue to expect the facility to be fully operational by the end of fiscal 2014.1”

Engraving Group sales increased 20.0% year-over-year, and operating income grew 30.0%.

“This was a quarter of record sales and profitability for the Standex Engraving Group,” said Dunbar. “This performance was mainly driven by our mold texturizing business, which was very strong in both the automotive and non automotive segments around the world. Each of our mold texturizing geographic regions performed well in the quarter. We expect to report strong mold texturizing sales through the second half of the fiscal year, not only in North America where we continue to see solid growth in bookings and backlog, but in Europe and China as well.1 We did see softness in the engraved roll and machinery business particularly in the US and Brazil during the quarter. We are continuing to execute on our growth strategy in Engraving. Our objective is to introduce new mold texturizing technologies and production capabilities that expand our addressable market and differentiate Standex from its competitors.1

Engineering Technologies Group sales decreased 3.9% year-over-year, with operating income declining 32.6% where the year over year sales and operating profit were negatively impacted by the customer contractual settlement identified above.

“Excluding the impact of the customer settlement in the year-earlier quarter, the Engineering Technologies Group performed well in the second quarter of fiscal 2014, as flat sales for aviation were more than offset by strong growth in our space, land-based turbine, and oil and gas businesses,” Dunbar said. “In our space business we continued to capture development and production orders from NASA and commercial customers for key manned and unmanned space flight programs. Sales to our original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) customers for applications related to large offshore oil and gas production floating platforms rose significantly, year-over-year, reflecting the project-driven nature of this part of the business.”

Electronics Products Group sales were up 6.3% year-over-year, with operating income increasing 7.1%.

“Our growth in Electronics during the second quarter in part reflects the impact of the new customer product platforms that we have been launching in both Europe and North America,” said Dunbar. “These include magnetic devices in the white goods end user market, sensors for appliance, automotive and hydraulic oil pressure applications and reed relay programs. Looking ahead, we have a solid pipeline of customer programs that we expect to launch during the next several quarters.1 We also are continuing to make good progress in our developmental work on new customer programs for the domestic market in China. At the same time, we are moving forward in executing on a robust set of lean enterprise cost reduction initiatives. We expect these initiatives to benefit the business during the next 12 to 18 months.1 This is in addition to the estimated $4 million annual run rate savings that we are now realizing from the Meder acquisition synergies coming from procurement savings and from our facility consolidations in Tianjin and Shanghai, China.”

The Hydraulics Products Group reported a 12.4% year-over-year sales increase, while operating income increased 10.0%.

“During the second quarter our Hydraulics Products Group continued to experience recovery in our traditional North American dump truck market, driven primarily by the rebound in new home construction,” Dunbar said. “Dump trailer sales in the North American market were flat with the second quarter last year as sales in the oil & gas market were up year-over-year but were offset by soft sales related to infrastructure construction and coal hauling. We continue to see robust growth in the roll-off refuse market, driven by sales to the two largest OEMs in the segment as well as gains in share with some of the smaller OEMs. In addition, we are executing a number of important new product launches in the garbage truck refuse market. On the bottom line, our recent expansion of the Tianjin Hydraulics facility has been completed, our backlog is solid, and we anticipate robust demand for production out of the Tianjin facility through the second half of fiscal 2014.1”

Business Outlook

“Fiscal 2014 is shaping up to be a mixed year,” Dunbar said. “Although industry conditions in Food Service are likely to remain challenging through the second half, we believe the steps we are taking to reduce costs, improve working capital and roll out new products will have positive long-term effect on our growth and profitability in that segment.1 The trends elsewhere in our business look to be increasingly favorable for future organic growth, and we are introducing a range of new customer programs and products to capitalize on this market opportunity.1 In light of our strong balance sheet and liquidity, we also remain focused on pursuing acquisitions that strengthen our business. We believe that Standex is well-positioned to leverage future sales growth into stronger profitability.1”
