“While it appears that market conditions will continue to be challenging through the balance of 2012, our diversification efforts have enhanced our prospects for future revenue and income,” said Maurice “Mo” Gauthier, VSE CEO. “The threat of sequestration has created uncertainty for our industry, but we are positioned to continue to provide quality services that will extend the life of aging fleets of military equipment. Also, our plan for diversification over the last several years has decreased our dependence on the Department of Defense market. The operating improvements directly result from our strong commitment to efficient program execution and sustained cost reduction throughout the Company.”
Mr. Gauthier added, “After successfully integrating our subsidiary Wheeler Bros., Inc. (“WBI”) over the past year, we are pursuing new markets for WBI’s exceptional supply chain management capabilities. We also continue to focus on our other key market areas, including legacy system sustainment, energy, IT and healthcare IT.”
Revenues were $139 million for the second quarter of 2012 compared to $159 million in the second quarter of 2011. For the first six months, revenues were $284 million in 2012 compared to $310 million in 2011.
Operating income was $12 million for the second quarter of 2012 compared to $7.3 million in the second quarter of 2011. For the first six months, operating income was $24.4 million in 2012 compared to $14.2 million in 2011.
Net income was $6.3 million for the second quarter of 2012, or $1.18 per diluted share, compared to $4.2 million, or $.80 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2011. Net income was $13 million for the first six months of 2012, or $2.44 per diluted share, compared to $8.4 million, or $1.60 per diluted share for the first six months of 2011.
