“We achieved solid operating performance in the second quarter,” said Dr. Michael J. Hartnett, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “During the quarter, we saw strength in the aerospace sector in both commercial OEM and aftermarket activity. This performance was partially offset by softness in defense and industrial markets. We continue to be pleased with our progress on the Sargent integration and expect to see continued improvement in the performance of this business.”
Second Quarter Results
Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 were $148.7 million, an increase of 32.1% from $112.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015. Net sales for the aerospace markets increased 59.6% offset by a 2.4% decrease in industrial markets. Gross margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 was $52.1 million compared to $39.8 million for the same period last year. Excluding the impact of an inventory purchase accounting adjustment and consolidation and restructuring charge last year, gross margin would have been $56.4 million compared to $43.5 million for the same period last year. Adjusted gross margin as a percentage of net sales would have been 37.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to 38.6% for the same adjusted period last year.
SG&A for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 was $24.9 million, an increase of $6.4 million from $18.5 million for the same period last year. The increase of $6.4 million was primarily attributable to an increase of $4.6 million associated with the acquisition of Sargent Aerospace, $1.1 million in personnel-related expenses, $0.3 million in professional fees, $0.2 million in incentive stock compensation expenses and $0.2 million in other items. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A was 16.8% for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to 16.5% for the same period last year.
Other operating expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 totaled $3.6 million, an increase of $0.7 million, compared to $2.9 million for the same period last year. For the second quarter of fiscal 2016 other operating expenses consisted of $2.4 million of amortization of intangibles and $0.2 million in costs associated with integration and restructuring, $1.1 million in costs associated with acquisitions, offset by $0.1 million of other income. For the same period last year, other operating expenses consisted of $0.5 million of amortization of intangibles, $2.7 million in costs associated with consolidation and restructuring, offset by $0.3 million of other income.
Operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 was $23.6 million compared to operating income of $18.3 million for the same period last year. Excluding costs associated with acquisitions and integration and restructuring, operating income would have been $29.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to an adjusted $24.7 million for the same period last year. Excluding these adjustments, operating income as a percentage of net sales would have been 19.6% compared to 21.9% for the same period last year.
Interest expense, net was $2.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to $0.3 million for the same period last year.
Income tax expense for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 was $7.4 million compared to $5.0 million for the same period last year. Our effective income tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 was 33.8% compared to 27.3% for the same period last year. The effective income tax rates for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015 include discrete tax benefits (losses) of $(0.1) million and $3.1 million, respectively. The effective income tax rate without these discrete tax items would have been 33.5% and 32.9%, respectively.
Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 was $14.5 million compared to $13.2 million for the same period last year. On an adjusted basis, net income would have been $17.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to an adjusted net income of $16.5 million for the same period last year.
Diluted EPS for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 was 62 cents per share compared to 57 cents per share for the same period last year. On an adjusted basis, diluted EPS for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 would have been 76 cents per share compared to an adjusted diluted EPS of 70 cents per share for the same period last year, an increase of 8.6%.
Backlog, as of September 26, 2015, was $347.8 million compared to $218.0 million as of September 27, 2014 and $340.8 million as of June 27, 2015.
