Richardson Electronics Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2009 Results, Announces Share Repurchase Program, and Declares Cash Dividend

Richardson Electronics, Ltd. (NASDAQ: RELL) today reported second quarter fiscal 2009 net income of $5.9 million, or $0.31 per diluted common share, on sales of $132.6 million, compared with a net loss of $0.7 million on sales of $145.0 million last year.

SG&A costs during the second quarter declined to $28.2 million, or 21.3% of net sales, compared to $31.3 million, or 21.6% of net sales last year. Operating income during the second quarter was $5.0 million, or 3.7% of net sales, compared to operating income of $2.5 million, or 1.7% of net sales last year. Cash provided by operating activities during the second quarter was $4.5 million, compared to $2.7 million of cash provided by operating activities during the second quarter last year.

"While our sales have been impacted by the weakening economic conditions, I am pleased with the significant progress we have made in driving costs out of the company. Our progress is reflected in the operating income of $5.0 million during the second quarter and $9.4 million for the first half of this fiscal year,” said Edward J. Richardson, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of Richardson Electronics, Ltd.

"In light of the uncertainty surrounding the current global economic environment, we will continue to make adjustments to our cost structure and business model to enhance our profitability,” added Mr. Richardson.

CONTINUING FOCUS ON WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AND CASH FLOWS

Cash flows provided by operating activities were $4.5 million and $3.6 million during the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2009, respectively.

"We spent approximately $10 million for inventory, excluding the effects of foreign exchange, during the first six months of fiscal 2009. This was offset by a decrease in our accounts receivable and an increase in our accounts payable balances as of November 29, 2008, compared to our fiscal 2008 year end. Although it is difficult to predict how the current global economic conditions will impact us over the next several quarters, we remain focused on working capital management and improving our cash flows,” said Kathleen S. Dvorak, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

REDUCING DEBT

During the second quarter of fiscal 2009, we retired $3.3 million of our 8% convertible senior subordinated notes at a discount of 29%, resulting in a net gain of $849,000. The retirement of the notes was financed through cash generated from operating activities.

SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

On January 6, 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to purchase up to $12.6 million of its outstanding common stock. Stock repurchases under this program may be made on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, depending on factors including market conditions and other factors. The stock repurchase program does not have an expiration date and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

"We believe an investment in our stock at this time represents an excellent opportunity for us to return value to our shareholders,” said Mr. Richardson.

OUTLOOK

"The second quarter financial results reflect continued progress in many key areas of our business. While the current economic crisis limits our visibility to future sales, we remain committed to improving gross margin and reducing costs throughout the company” added Mr. Richardson.

CASH DIVIDEND

The Company today also announced that its Board of Directors voted to declare a $0.02 cash dividend per share to all holders of common stock and a $0.018 cash dividend per share to all holders of Class B common stock. The dividend will be payable on February 20, 2009, to all common stockholders of record on February 11, 2009. The Company currently has 14,865,370 outstanding shares of common stock and 3,048,258 outstanding shares of Class B common stock.
