FOOTHILL RANCH, Calif., Aug. 2, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kaiser Aluminum Corporation (Nasdaq:KALU) today reported net income of $0.1 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.01 for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010 compared to $20 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.97 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. Both periods included significant pre-tax, non-run-rate items related primarily to non-cash mark-to-market gains and losses on derivative positions. Non-run-rate losses in the second quarter 2010 were approximately $22 million compared to non-run-rate gains of $22 million in the second quarter of 2009. Excluding the impact of these pre-tax, non-run-rate items, adjusted net income was $13.5 million, or $0.71 earnings per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2010 compared to adjusted net income and earnings per diluted share of $6.5 million and $0.32, respectively, for the prior year quarter.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, reported net income was $9 million compared to $23 million in the prior year period. Earnings per diluted share were $0.45 as compared $1.16 for the prior year period. Earnings results for the six months ended June 30, 2010 included approximately $22 million of pre-tax, non-run-rate losses compared to approximately $1 million of pretax, non-run-rate gains in the comparable 2009 period.
Second Quarter Summary Comments
"The underlying second quarter results for our Fabricated Products segment were the best in two years," said Jack A. Hockema, President, CEO and Chairman. "Adjusted operating income increased 30% on a sequential basis and 75% compared to the prior year quarter. The sequential increase was driven by higher value added revenue on stronger-than-expected shipments of aerospace and high strength applications as well as continued improvement in manufacturing cost efficiencies.
"In addition, the startup of our world-class rod and bar extrusion facility in Kalamazoo, Michigan is progressing on schedule to become fully operational by the end of the year."

The Company reported consolidated operating income of $4 million in the second quarter 2010 compared to $15 million in the first quarter 2010 and $35 million in the prior year period. Non-run-rate items were significant in the second quarters of both 2010 and 2009, driven by a non-cash, mark-to-market loss on derivative positions of $19 million for the second quarter 2010 compared to a non-cash, market-to-market gain of $27 million for the comparable quarter of 2009. Adjusting for these and other non-run-rate items, consolidated operating income for the second quarter 2010 was $26 million, representing an increase of 62% compared to the first quarter 2010 and 92% compared to the second quarter 2009. The improvement was primarily driven by higher value added revenue and continued improvement in manufacturing efficiencies in the Fabricated Products segment.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, reported consolidated operating income was $19 million compared to $42 million for the prior year period. Adjusted for non-run-rate items, operating income was $41 million for both six month periods.

The Fabricated Products segment reported operating income of $33 million in the second quarter 2010, an increase from $23 million in the first quarter 2010 and $19 million in the comparable prior year period. Adjusted for non-run-rate items, operating income continued an upward trend to $35 million in the second quarter 2010, representing an increase of 30% compared to the first quarter 2010 and 75% compared to the second quarter 2009. The improvement reflected the impact of higher value added revenue on stronger-than-expected shipments of aerospace and high strength applications combined with continued improvement in manufacturing efficiencies.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, reported operating income in the Fabricated Products segment increased to $56 million from $33 million in the comparable 2009 period. Adjusted for non-run-rate items, segment operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $62 million, a $14 million improvement over the comparable 2009 period due primarily to improvement in manufacturing cost efficiencies.
Outlook
"We expect third quarter demand for aerospace and high strength applications to continue at a pace comparable to what we experienced, on average, in the first half of 2010," said Mr. Hockema. "Shipments and value added revenue for our general engineering and automotive applications are anticipated to reflect normal seasonal weakness.
"More importantly, the long-term fundamentals of our business remain solid, and we are pleased with how the Company is positioned. We foresee strong long-term growth in demand for our aerospace and automotive applications, and we have yet to fully realize the benefits of significant capital investments throughout our manufacturing platform, particularly in Trentwood and Kalamazoo," concluded Mr. Hockema.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A "non-GAAP financial measure" is defined as a numerical measure of a company's financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flow of the company. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure in the accompanying tables.
The non-GAAP financial measures used within this earnings release are operating profit, net income and earnings per diluted share, excluding non-run-rate, non-operating gains and losses, and earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization or EBITDA. These measures are presented because management uses this information to monitor and evaluate financial results and trends and believes this information to also be useful for investors.
This press release contains statements based on management's current expectations, estimates and projections that constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 involving known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from those expressed or implied. Kaiser Aluminum cautions that such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or events and involve significant risks and uncertainties and actual events may vary materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. These factors include: (a) changes in the demand in the market segments served by the Company, including aerospace, defense, general engineering, automotive, distribution and other market segments, including changes impacting the volume, price or mix of products sold by the Company and the Company's ability to flex production consistent with changing demand levels; (b) pressure to reduce defense spending and demand for the Company's products used in defense applications as the U.S. and other governments are faced with competing national priorities; (c) the Company's ability to continue to realize manufacturing efficiencies and remain a low cost producer, (d) the Company's ability to successfully identify and execute its long term strategic growth initiatives and internal and external growth opportunities; (e) the Company's ability to efficiently deploy assets to collateralize existing and future financing requirements; (f) the Company's ability to meet contractual commitments and obligations to supply products meeting required specifications; (g) changes in competitive factors in the markets served by the Company, including developments in technology used by the Company, its competitors or its customers and changes in applicable laws and regulatory requirements which negatively impact the Company's competitive position; (h) the Company's ability to lower energy costs, realize manufacturing efficiencies and complete its expansion and organic growth projects, equipment and facility upgrades to improve manufacturing and cost efficiencies and product expansions as planned and by targeted completion dates, including the start-up and operation of the Company's new rod and bar extrusion facility in Kalamazoo, Michigan; and (i) other risk factors summarized in the Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 and Current Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. As more fully described in these reports, "non-run-rate" items are items that, while they may occur from period to period, are particularly material to results, impact costs primarily as a result of external market factors and may not occur in future periods if the same level of underlying performance were to occur. All information in this release is as of the date of the release. The Company undertakes no duty to update any forward-looking statement to conform the statement to actual results or changes in the Company's expectations.
