For the 26 weeks ended June 26, 2010 and June 27, 2009:
•Revenues
in 2010 increased 17.1 percent over the prior year to $214.0 million
from $182.7 million last year. Revenue growth in both periods was
driven by strong overall demand for our products and higher new product
sales.
•Net income in 2010 was up 95 percent to $21.1 million
from $10.8 million last year. Diluted earnings per share in 2010 rose
95 percent to $1.17 from $0.60 in 2009.
•Gross profit margin was 37.9 percent in 2010 compared to 33.1 percent
in 2009. The increase in margin is the result of a reduction in freight
expenses and certain material costs, along with lower product return
costs.
Richard Berman, chairman and chief executive officer, said,
“We reported a 20 percent increase in sales in the second quarter, and
sales growth of 17 percent for the year. Continued growth in our New to
the Aftermarket product lines along with strong market demand for most
other product lines are the primary reasons for these sales increases.
Our organization remains focused on continuing to strengthen the
fundamentals of our business, all of which are centered on new product
development and satisfying the needs of our customers and end users. We
are committed to growing all existing Dorman product lines and
enhancing this growth with further investments in new product
development.”
