Dorel posts record third quarter earnings
EXCHANGESTSX: DII.B, DII.A - Earnings momentum continues on reduced revenues - New car seat technology boosts Dorel Juvenile Group USA - Home Furnishings segment helps drive earnings </pre> <p/> <p><location>MONTREAL</location>, <chron>Nov. 5</chron> /CNW Telbec/ - Dorel Industries Inc. (TSX: DII.B DII.A) today released third quarter and nine month results for the period ended <chron>September 30, 2009</chron>. Net income for the quarter was US$30.2 million or US$0.91 per diluted share compared to US$27.2 million or US$0.82 per diluted share a year ago. In terms of profitability, the third quarter of 2009 is the best ever recorded by Dorel. Revenue was US$518.5, down 6.1% from US$552.2 million a year ago.</p> <p>Net income for the nine months ended <chron>September 30</chron> was US$83.0 million or US$2.49 per diluted share, compared to last year's US$93.7 million or US$2.81 per diluted share. Revenue for the nine months was US$1.6 billion, down 6.3% from US$1.7 billion a year ago.</p> <p>"The fact that we have exceeded last year's earnings for the quarter despite a difficult economic period is a tribute to the quality and value of our products and our focus on maximizing margins through cost containment, a more stable cost environment and our disciplined minimum margin requirement program. Dorel's multi-national operations, diverse operating segments and broad product lines have traditionally compensated for earnings variations within the Company's various operating divisions. This is the case in 2009 as strong results within <location>North America</location> in the Juvenile and Home Furnishing segments are offsetting less profitable results at other divisions elsewhere within the Company," commented Dorel President and CEO, <person>Martin Schwartz</person>.</p> <p/> <p/> <pre> ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Summary of Financial Highlights ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Third Quarters Ended September 30 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- All figures in thousands of US $, except per share amounts 2009 2008 Change % ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Revenues 518,458 552,242 -6.1% Net income 30,230 27,208 11.1% Per share - Basic 0.91 0.82 11.0% Per share - Diluted 0.91 0.82 11.0% ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Average number of shares outstanding - diluted weighted average 33,338,597 33,399,355 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Summary of Financial Highlights ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nine Months Ended September 30 All figures in thousands of US $, except per share amounts 2009 2008 Change % ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Revenues 1,594,811 1,702,000 -6.3% Net income 83,023 93,688 -11.4% Per share - Basic 2.49 2.81 -11.4% Per share - Diluted 2.49 2.81 -11.4% ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Average number of shares outstanding - diluted weighted average 33,389,225 33,399,003 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Juvenile ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Third Quarters Ended September 30 2009 2008 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ % of rev. $ % of rev.

This decline was most pronounced in <location>Europe</location>, due to a combination of existing market conditions abroad as well as the value of the US dollar versus the prior year. Third quarter European sales declined by 10% from the corresponding period last year, but two-thirds was due to the impact of foreign exchange. Excluding this, organic revenue decline in <location>Europe</location> was approximately 5%. For the segment as a whole, the organic revenue decline was approximately 3%. As described in more detail below, included in the 2009 quarterly figures are mark-to-market losses on foreign exchange contracts purchased to hedge a portion of both 2009 and 2010 purchases. The loss within the Juvenile segment in 2009 is US$2.5 million. Conversely, in 2008 a gain of US$3.6 million was recorded on contracts put in place to hedge a portion of 2009 purchases.</p> <p>The Air Protect(TM) car seat technology, designed to protect children in side impact collisions, was launched in July in the US and in late September in <location>Canada</location>. As such, the quarter includes the initial shipments of the Safety 1st Complete Air car seat which helped the results at Dorel Juvenile Group. It is expected that additional retailers will be carrying the seat commencing January. Continuing the migration of the Air Protect(TM) technology into the new infant carrier, On Board 35 Air, is being rolled out next month as part of a travel system. The Air Protect(TM) technology will continue to evolve and will be available at various price points. "Dorel is focused on providing the best solutions to keep our children safe at affordable prices," commented <person>Mr. Schwartz</person>.</p> <p/> <p>Recreational/Leisure</p> <p/> <pre> ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Third Quarters Ended September 30 2009 2008 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ % of rev. $ % of rev.

Sales at Cycling Sports Group (CSG) to Independent Bike Dealers (IBD) and specialty sporting goods customers increased over last year's third quarter. However, consumers are purchasing less of CSG's higher-end products and are trading down to lower priced items, which carry lower margins. Excluding the impact of new business acquisitions and foreign exchange variations on the segment's non-US based businesses, Recreational/Leisure's organic revenue decline was approximately 10% for the quarter and 6% year-to-date.</p> <p>During the quarter and into early October, three business acquisitions were concluded, including a recognized brand name in "Iron Horse", and two successful bicycle distributors in <location>Australia</location> and the <location>United Kingdom</location>. The UK acquisition of Hot Wheels and Circle Bikes included the popular local "Charge" brand which was recently awarded both "Manufacturer of the Year" and "Bike of the Year 2009" by two British cycling magazines. Dorel has retained the owners of Hot Wheels who will manage the newly created Cycling Sports Group UK (CSG UK). This subsidiary will be dedicated to the IBD channel and will drive the future growth of the Charge, Mongoose, GT and Cannondale brands.</p> <p>Last month additional initiatives were announced to further grow Dorel's Performance Apparel Division. The Apparel Footwear Group (AFG) will incorporate SUGOI Performance Apparel as well as the apparel lines of Cannondale, GT, Schwinn, Iron Horse and Mongoose - in both custom and its regular offerings. Plans include an investment in new equipment, facilities and additional employees. An important focus of AFG will be to build the custom apparel business, developing specific riding and running uniforms for teams and clubs.</p> <p/> <p>Home Furnishings</p> <p/> <pre> ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Third Quarters Ended September 30 2009 2008 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ % of rev. $ % of rev.

Lower material costs, a favourable currency environment, as well as increased operational efficiencies improved gross margin by 730 basis points to 18.0% for the segment.</p> <p>Reduced overheads and selling and administration expenses helped to narrow the losses at Cosco Home & Office and the recovery plan for this division remains on track. The import furniture businesses also improved earnings over the prior year and continue to perform to expectation.</p> <p/> <p>Other</p> <p/> <p>As disclosed previously, 2009 earnings are being negatively affected by the reversal of a US$10.5 million mark-to-market gain that was recorded on foreign exchange contracts in 2008. The third quarter of 2009 includes a loss on this reversal of US$1.8 million, as well as a mark-to-market loss of US$1.2 million on foreign exchange contracts put in place in the year to hedge a portion of 2010 purchases. Of the US$10.5 million gain recorded in 2008, US$3.5 million was in the third quarter of that year. After-tax, the amounts recorded in the third quarter are a loss of US$2.2 million in 2009 and a gain US$2.5 million in 2008.</p> <p>The tax rate in the third quarter was 11.0% and year-to-date is 14.7%, in line with expectations. The quarter's lower than typical rate is consistent with the prior year which was 11.3%. For the year the Company's tax rate is expected to be at the lower end of its previously published range of 15% to 20%.</p> <p/> <p>Cash flow</p> <p/> <p>During the first nine months of 2009, cash flow from operating activities more than doubled as compared to 2008 at US$148.2 million compared to US$72.4 million in the prior year. Driven by inventory reductions, the change in non-cash balances related to operations provided a source of funds of US$30.9 million in 2009 compared to a use of US$59.1 million in 2008. Free cash flow, defined as cash flow from operating activities less fixed asset and intangible additions and dividends, is US$107.1 million thus far in 2009 as compared to US$27.8 million in 2008.</p> <p/> <p>Quarterly dividend</p> <p/> <p>The Board of Directors of Dorel declared its regular quarterly dividend of US$0.125 per share on the outstanding number of the Company's Class A Multiple Voting Shares, Class B Subordinate Voting Shares and Deferred Share Units. The dividend is payable on <chron>December 3, 2009</chron> to shareholders of record as at the close of business on <chron>November 19, 2009</chron>.</p> <p/> <p>Outlook</p> <p/> <p>Dorel's nine month performance in 2009 has validated the Company's expectations for the year. Despite the recession, belief was that while not immune to these conditions, Dorel's customer profile and the nature of the great majority of its products would help protect the Company from dramatic sales reductions versus 2008. Underlining this sentiment is the fact that organic sales have declined by just over 5%.</p> <p>Expectations for strong free cash flow in 2009 have also been realized. This has allowed the Company to continue to invest in future growth through strategic acquisitions and an on-going commitment to new product development. Going forward, recent trends in the value of the U.S. dollar against other currencies mean that earnings will be dampened within Home Furnishings as the Canadian dollar has strengthened. Home Furnishings has two large manufacturing facilities in <location>Canada</location> and their products are sold primarily within the US. Conversely, the rise in value of the Canadian dollar, as well as the Euro and several other currencies against the U.S. dollar will help earnings within the Juvenile segment.</p> <p>"We believe we are well-positioned as we head into the fourth quarter and look forward to an encouraging 2010. Within the Recreational/Leisure segment we have received favourable reaction to our 2010 model line-up and order levels have increased. The Juvenile segment will benefit from Air Protect(TM) in <location>North America</location> and from Maxi-Cosi's new FamilyFix in <location>Europe</location> which was first shown at the September <location>Cologne</location>, <location>Germany</location> juvenile trade fair and was well received by customers. The turnaround in Home Furnishings has materialized as we expected, and while currency rates do pose a challenge, our belief in that segment has been validated by its greatly improved performance," concluded <person>Mr. Schwartz</person>.</p> <p/> <p>Conference Call</p> <p/> <p>Dorel Industries Inc. will hold a conference call to discuss these results today, <chron>November 5, 2009</chron> at <chron>1:00 P.M.
