Exhibit 99.1

 

EnerSys Reports First Quarter Fiscal Year 2006 Results

 

READING, PA, August 17, 2005/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — EnerSys (NYSE:ENS), the world’s largest manufacturer, marketer and distributor of industrial batteries, announced net earnings for its first fiscal quarter of 2006 ending July 3, 2005 of $8.8 million, or $0.19 per share basic and diluted, compared to net earnings of $9.0 million and net earnings available to common shareholders of $0.9 million, or $0.08 per share basic and diluted, in the prior year’s first fiscal quarter. These results are within the range of the $0.18 to $0.22 diluted net earnings per share guidance previously provided.

 

Pro forma basic and diluted net earnings per share were $0.19 for the first fiscal quarter of 2006 compared to pro forma basic and diluted net earnings per share of $0.23 in the first fiscal quarter of 2005. Our pro forma adjustments primarily relate to the effect of our IPO and the elimination of our non-cash Series A convertible stock dividend.

 

Net sales for the first fiscal quarter of 2006 were $303.8 million compared to $263.3 million in our prior year first fiscal quarter, or an increase of 15.4%. Our results reflect the inclusion of our acquisition of FIAMM SpA’s motive power business from June 1 through July 3. This acquisition contributed sales of approximately $7 million in the quarter. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency translation (primarily from the Euro), our first fiscal quarter of 2006 net sales increased approximately 14% over our prior year first quarter.

 

EnerSys’ first fiscal quarter of 2006 operating results for its reporting segments, compared to the first fiscal quarter of 2005 are as follows (in millions).

“EnerSys continues to successfully address the dynamic market challenges of higher commodity costs by increasing prices and achieving further cost reductions. We expect to experience our highest lead cost for fiscal 2006 in our second fiscal quarter, and our lead costs should then decrease in the second half of fiscal 2006 due to the recent drop in lead prices. This has provided us with the opportunity to increase our lead hedge position, which will have a positive impact on our second half,” stated John D. Craig, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “As we previously noted, the recently completed FIAMM SpA motive power acquisition will be dilutive by approximately $0.02 for fiscal year 2006, the majority of which will occur in our second quarter of fiscal 2006. This, in combination with the impact of lead prices and that historically our second quarter is our lowest sales volume quarter of the year, should result in diluted net earnings per share between $0.11 and $0.15 for our second quarter.”

 

This press release contains forward-looking statements (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), that are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to uncertainties and changes in circumstances. Our actual results may differ materially from our forward-looking statements for a number of reasons. For a list of the factors, which could affect our results, including our earnings estimates, see “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” including “Forward-Looking Statements,” set forth in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended July 3, 2005, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

This press release contains pro forma earnings per share data determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). EnerSys’ management uses the non-GAAP measures in their analysis of the company’s performance. As described in the footnotes to the tables and the reconciliation provided below, these measures, as used by EnerSys, adjust net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP to exclude items associated with our IPO. Management believes presentations of financial measures excluding the impact of these items provide useful supplemental information in evaluating the operating results of our business. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
