Standard Register Reports 2005 First Quarter Results DAYTON, Ohio,
April 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Standard Register (NYSE:SR)
today reported financial results for the first quarter ended April
3, 2005. Results of Operations Total revenue on continuing
operations was $232.0 million, an increase of 5.3 percent over the
$220.3 million reported for the comparable quarter of 2004. Net
income was $2.4 million or $0.08 per share, compared with a net
loss of $6.5 million or $0.23 per share for the prior period.
"We've seen good progress on our sales initiatives," said Dennis
Rediker, president and chief executive officer of Standard
Register. "Our core Document and Label Systems and our
Print-On-Demand Services businesses each reported 4 percent revenue
growth, plus we had a significant revenue increase in our new
commercial print operation. During the quarter, we also received
several multi-year commitments from new customers that will
contribute to future revenue. The hard work of our associates is
clearly beginning to pay off." The continuing margin improvement
reflects our progress in recovering last year's three paper cost
hikes, plus the positive results from our company-wide cost
reduction and productivity improvement programs. The table below
isolates the effects of restructuring and the amortization of prior
years' pension losses on profitability. [$ Millions] Effect on

(Loss) 2.4 -6.5 8.9 Restructuring expense was $.5 million in the
current quarter, primarily residual lease facility costs related to
actions undertaken in previous periods. Pension loss amortization
was $5.1 million, originating in large part from weak stock market
returns in earlier years. All other operations contributed $9.5
million in the current period, versus a $3.3 million deficit in the
prior year -- the $12.8 million favorable swing was primarily
driven by higher revenue and lower fixed operating costs. The
Company recorded a $0.2 million change, net of tax, in estimated
reserves in connection with the gain from the fourth quarter 2004
sale of its equipment services business. Financial Condition The
Company continued to maintain its strong balance sheet. Net debt at
quarter-end was $42.8 million -- total debt of $71.3 million less
cash and cash equivalents of $28.5 million. The net borrowing
position represented 17% of total invested capital. Capital
expenditures were $6.1 million in the quarter, in-line with the
lower end of the $25 - $30 million expected range for the year, and
dividends paid were $0.23 per share or $6.6 million, consistent
with payments made in recent quarters. Net debt rose in the quarter
by $5.5 million, reflecting restructuring spending of $2.0 million
and the payment of annual sales management and other associate
incentives earned in 2004. Excluding spending for acquisitions,
divestitures, and restructuring related to reshaping the Company's
portfolio and cost structure, Standard Register has generated $19.0
million of positive net cash flow over the last four quarters --
after satisfying $24.1 million of capital expenditures and $26.4
million of dividends. Outlook "In line with previous guidance, we
expect our total year revenue to show modest growth on a 52-week
fiscal year basis (2004 contained 53 weeks) and for our margins to
continue to improve," said Rediker. "Our specific margin goal,
first announced in mid-2004, remains to achieve a five-point
improvement in pretax operating profit as a percent of revenue for
the second half 2005, compared to the first half 2004." The Company
expects to replace its existing $150 million revolving credit
agreement with a new $100 million secured revolving credit
agreement prior to the May 2005 expiration of the current
agreement. Dividend Standard Register's board of directors today
declared a quarterly dividend of $0.23 per share to be paid on June
10, 2005 to shareholders of record as of May 27, 2005. Presentation
of Information in This Press Release This press release presents
information that excludes restructuring and impairment expense, and
amortization of prior years' pension losses. These financial
measures are considered non-GAAP. Generally a non-GAAP financial
measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance,
financial position, or cash flows where amounts are either excluded
or included not in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Standard Register believes that this information will
enhance an overall understanding of its financial performance due
to the non-operational nature in the above items and the
significant change from period to period. The presentation of
non-GAAP information is not meant to be considered in isolation or
as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. Conference Call
Standard Register president and chief executive officer Dennis L.
Rediker, and chief financial officer Craig J. Brown, will host a
conference call at 10 a.m. EDT on April 29, 2005, to review the
first quarter results. The call can be accessed via an audio
