E-mailEDGEWOOD, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 05/10/16 -- CPI Aerostructures, Inc. ("CPI Aero�") (NYSE MKT: CVU) today reported first-quarter 2016 financial results.
First quarter 2016 results included a one-time, non-cash charge of approximately $13.5 million related to the Company's estimate to perform its A-10 Wing Replacement Program (WRP) through the conclusion of its 173-wing order, and consists of: 1) a reduction of revenue of approximately $8.9 million; 2) an increase in cost of sales of approximately $4.6 million.
Revenue for the 2016 first quarter was $12.7 million compared with $19.9 million for the 2015 first quarter. Gross loss was $11.6 million for the first quarter of 2016, versus gross profit $3.6 million for the 2015 first quarter. Net loss for the 2016 first quarter was $9.2 million, or a loss of $1.07 per diluted share compared with net income of $928 thousand, or $0.11 per diluted share in the 2015 first quarter.
On an as adjusted basis, which excludes the impact of the A-10 program on the Company's financial performance for both time periods, revenue for the 2016 first quarter was $19.5 million compared with $15.7 million for the 2015 first quarter. Gross profit was $3.7 million for the first quarter of 2016, versus $3.6 million for the 2015 first quarter. Net income for the 2016 first quarter was $0.41 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared with $0.94 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, in the 2015 first quarter.
Commenting on the non-cash charge, Douglas McCrosson, president and chief executive officer, stated, "The future of the A-10 remains very uncertain. Despite earlier declarations that the Air Force intended to defer retirement of the aircraft until 2022, it appears now that the Air Force intends to begin retirement much earlier than that. We anticipate that Congress will continue to prevent the Air Force from retiring the A-10 until another platform proves capable of meeting the Close Air Support mission and we still believe that the Air Force will need to acquire new wings beyond what is already on order with Boeing. However, we recognize that the quantity and timing of any future orders remain too uncertain for us to consider such anticipated orders in our current financial results. Therefore, in the first quarter of 2016 we are accounting for all of the remaining costs to complete all open orders under our contract with Boeing under the assumptions that we will neither receive firm orders for additional wing subassemblies in 2016 nor will we receive an adjustment to our contract for the claims we have submitted to our customer. It is important to note that our cash receipts from Boeing over the remainder of the contract are expected to exceed our cash expenses by approximately $1.5 million and that the A-10 WRP is expected to have net inflows of cash each quarter through completion in early 2017."
Mr. McCrosson added, "Due to the loss incurred in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, we were not in compliance with the debt service coverage ratio, leverage ratio and net income ratio covenants contained in our Credit Agreement with BankUnited and Citizen's Bank. On May 9, 2016, the Company entered in an amendment and waiver to the Credit Agreement which, among other things, provided for a waiver of the covenants and amended the Credit Agreement to account for the one-time A-10 related charge taken during the first quarter of 2016."
Continued Mr. McCrosson, "During the first quarter, our total backlog increased to $407.4 million, an increase of more than $20 million, primarily as a result of a new contract from Northrop Grumman to produce outer wing panel kits for the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye it is manufacturing for Japan. Our funded backlog increased to $104.0 million, up from $101.1 million at the end of 2015, largely a result of new delivery orders for our commercial product lines, particularly the Gulfstream G-650 leading edges and the Embraer Phenom 300 engine inlet assemblies."
Financial Outlook We recognize that the A-10 charge makes it difficult to assess the company's ongoing operating performance. Therefore, we are presenting updated guidance for 2016 under GAAP as well as on an as adjusted basis that excludes the A-10 WRP program revenue and costs (see accompanying table.)

(1) A-10 WRP GAAP revenue is expected to be approximately $(0.3) million for the full year 2016. In 1Q16, we booked an $(8.9 million) adjustment to revenue for A-10 WRP. We earned $2.1 million in A-10 revenue in the first quarter and estimate we will book an additional $6.5 million in A-10 revenue for the remainder of 2016. Approximately $2 million of revenue on the full 173 shipset order from Boeing will remain at the end of 2016 and is expected to carry over into 2017.
(2) Excludes all 2016 projected A-10 WRP revenue from forecast.
(3) Adjusted for $(15.3 million) impact on gross profit now that we anticipate the A-10 WRP contract running through completion with no additional A-10 WRP revenue beyond the current contract value.
(4) Excludes all 2016 activity related to the A-10, including the $15.3 million negative impact on gross profit.
Concluded Mr. McCrosson, "Since November 2014, CPI has announced new defense contracts with a total value of approximately $225 million. As of March 31, 2016 more than $200 million remains in our backlog. These new programs will begin to positively impact the top and bottom lines during the balance of 2016 through 2020 or beyond in some cases. We continue to see opportunities for new defense orders, particularly for pod structures within our aerosystems segment, and believe new program wins will add to the base of long term contracts already in our backlog and will provide additional growth potential."

ADJUSTED STATEMENT OF EARNINGS
31-MAR-16
Adjusted Earnings (arrived at by eliminating the Company's A-10 Program with
Boeing from reported results) is not derived in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Adjusted earnings is a key metric
CPI Aero has used in evaluating its financial performance. Adjusted earnings
is considered a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by Regulation G
promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. CPI
Aero considers Adjusted Earnings important in evaluating its financial
performance on a consistent basis across various periods. Due to the
significance of the non-cash and non-recurring change in estimate recognized
in the three months ended March 31, 2016, Adjusted Earnings enables the
Company's Board of Directors and management to monitor and evaluate the
business on a consistent basis. CPI Aero uses Adjusted Earnings as a
measure, among others, to analyze and evaluate financial and strategic
planning decisions regarding future operating decisions and investments. The
presentation of Adjusted Earnings should not be construed as an inference
that CPI Aero's future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-
recurring items or by non-cash items, such as changes in estimates. Adjusted
Earnings should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute
for, pre-tax income, net income and cash flows from operating activities.
