UFP Technologies Announces Q3 Results

Georgetown, Mass., November 3, 2011. UFP Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: UFPT), a manufacturer of packaging and component products, today reported net income of $2.435 million or $0.35 per diluted common share outstanding for its third quarter ended September 30, 2011, 3% higher than net income of $2.365 million or $0.35 per diluted common share outstanding for the same period in 2010. Sales for the third quarter of 2011 were $30.8 million or 1% higher than 2010 third quarter sales of $30.5 million. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company reported net income of $7.3 million or $1.05 per diluted common share outstanding, compared to $6.2 million or $0.92 per diluted common share outstanding in the same 2010 period. Sales for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, were $95.8 million or 7.5% higher than sales of $89.1 million for the same nine-month period in 2010.

I am pleased with our third quarter results, said R. Jeffrey Bailly, Chairman & CEO. We were able to maintain in fact, slightly increase our top and bottom lines despite the conclusion of our long-standing door panel program for the Mercedes M-Class SUV, and expenses related to closing our Alabama production facility, transferring most of that business to other UFP plants, and opening our new Huntsville, Alabama, tech center. Excluding the door panel program sales from our third quarter results in 2010, our revenues for the quarter grew 7% over last year.

Although we have seen some softening in the industrial and military markets, we continue to see robust demand in the medical market and for our molded fiber products, Bailly added. We are currently researching and developing our next generation molded fiber production line. When that project is complete, we plan to invest in new state-of-the-art equipment with the goal of having new capacity on line in 2012.

Also, with our strong balance sheet that includes over $30 million in cash, we are patiently continuing our search for strategic acquisition candidates to increase the value we bring to our customers and help take UFP to the next level.
