NEWBURYPORT, Mass., Aug. 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UFP Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: UFPT), an innovative designer and custom manufacturer of components, subassemblies, products, and packaging primarily for the medical market, today reported net income of $11.9 million or $1.55 per diluted common share outstanding for its second quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to net income of $8.9 million or $1.17 per diluted common share outstanding for the same quarter in 2022. Sales for the second quarter were $100.0 million compared to sales of $94.3 million in the second quarter of 2022. Net income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 was $21.6 million or $2.81 per diluted common share outstanding compared to $13.8 million or $1.81 per diluted common share outstanding for the same period in 2022. Sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 were $197.8 million compared to sales of $165.6 million for the same period in 2022.

“I am very pleased with our second quarter results,” said R. Jeffrey Bailly, Chairman & CEO. “After adjusting prior-year sales for the divestment of our Molded Fiber business in July 2022, organic sales in Q2 grew 13%. MedTech sales grew 16%. Gross margins improved to 29.6% from 25.8% in Q2 of last year. These factors combined to drive a 40% improvement in operating income.”

“Each of our recently acquired businesses – DAS, Contech, and Advant Medical – continues to perform ahead of expectations,” Bailly said. “Together, they have brought both new sales opportunities and cost-saving opportunities for us and our customers. For example, medical packaging that was previously shipped to Mexico from Rhode Island and Galway, Ireland will now be produced in our new Tijuana facility. This will lower customers’ freight bills while also reducing our manufacturing costs. This greenfield facility, which has already transitioned from startup losses to profitability, is proving to be a valuable strategic location for several key customers.”

“As we continue to identify additional strategic acquisition opportunities, we remain committed to our disciplined process of carefully vetting candidates for both cultural and strategic fit. The goal, as always, is to increase our value to customers and maximize the success of each potential transaction,” Bailly said. “We also continue to add talent; our team is highly engaged and now numbers approximately 3,000 associates globally. Going forward, we believe our strong platform, including top technical talent, key customer and vendor partnerships, and a network of strategically located factories, leaves us in a great competitive position to capitalize on a range of growing market opportunities.”
