quarterly records for sales, segment profits, segment profit margins and
income.
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20050825/CLTH030LOGO )
Earnings in the quarter were $0.99 a share, a 62% improvement over the
second quarter of 2007, when they were $0.61 a share. Net income grew to $21.1
million in the quarter, an increase of 53% over the $13.8 million reported a
year ago. Before asbestos-related expenses and other selected items, income
was $1.38 a share compared to $1.01 a share in the second quarter of 2007, an
improvement of 37%. Earnings on this basis were $29.4 million, an improvement
of 29% over the second quarter of 2007, when they were $22.8 million. A table
showing the effect of asbestos-related expenses and other selected items for
the second quarter and first six months of 2008 and 2007 is included in this
release. Per share amounts are expressed on a diluted basis throughout this
release.
The company's diluted earnings benefited by about $0.05 a share as a
result of the Accelerated Share Repurchase (ASR) program announced in March
2008. Before asbestos-related expenses and other selected items, earnings
benefited by about $0.07 a share as a result of the ASR.
Sales in the quarter grew to $316.8 million, a 25% improvement over the
$254.4 million reported in the second quarter of 2007, while segment profits
increased 31% to $57.6 million, or 18.2% of sales, compared to $43.9 million,
or 17.3% of sales, a year ago. The increase in sales reflects strong organic
growth in each of the company's segments. Favorable markets in Sealing
Products and Engineered Products and increased shipments of engines and
associated equipment in Engine Products and Services were responsible for
about 11 percentage points of the improvement. Foreign exchange and
acquisitions each added about 7 points.
"Our operations performed very well in the second quarter," said Steve
Macadam, president and chief executive officer. "A number of factors
contributed to these results, including the strength of our oil and gas, power
generation and mining markets, our growing international presence and
acquisitions we completed in the past year. Our earnings per share also
reflect the impact of the share repurchase program we implemented earlier in
the year. Our performance in the first half of 2008 puts us on very sound
footing as we enter the second half of the year, which is especially important
in light of seasonal decreases in activity that are typical of the second half
and current concerns about the economic outlook."
Sealing Products
Second quarter sales in the Sealing Products segment reached $136.9
million, 16% better than the second quarter a year ago. Strong growth in a
number of industrial sealing markets and contributions from acquisitions
combined to provide about 11 percentage points of the growth, while favorable
foreign exchange accounted for about 5 percentage points. At Garlock Sealing
Technologies, increased demand from power generation, hydrocarbon production
and processing, and metals and mining markets, both in the United States and
the rest of the world, benefited sales. The original equipment segment of the
heavy-duty truck markets served by Stemco remained soft during the quarter,
but Stemco's sales to the heavy-duty truck aftermarket improved as a result of
the acquisition of V.W. Kaiser in the first quarter of 2008.
Profits in the segment grew by 41%, to $31.2 million and margins increased
to 22.8% from 18.7% a year ago as the segment benefited from better
performances at Garlock and Stemco and from the receipt of $2.5 million
related to the settlement of a 2002 warranty claim against a supplier.

Engineered Products
In the Engineered Products segment, second quarter sales grew to $144.8
million, a 34% improvement over the second quarter of 2007. Stronger markets
for the segment's products were responsible for 12 percentage points of the
growth in sales. Acquisitions contributed 13 percentage points of the growth
and favorable foreign exchange rates contributed 9 percentage points. GGB
Bearing Technology reported the largest sales growth in the segment resulting
from increases in European industrial demand, stronger power generation and
automotive markets in Brazil and favorable foreign exchange rates. At
Compressor Products International (CPI), acquisitions completed in the second
half of 2007 helped to double sales over the second quarter of 2007. The
business also saw strength in its European and Canadian markets. Sales at
Quincy Compressor also increased as that business benefited from strong demand
from its U.S. oil and gas customers and the acquisition of Air Perfection.
The segment's operating profit improved by 19% to $21.9 million as all
units in the segment reported increases compared to the second quarter of
2007. However, the segment's margins declined to 15.1% from 17.0% as increases
in material costs at all units outpaced increases in selling prices. Margins
also reflect a less profitable product mix and the impact of lower margins in
businesses acquired by CPI in the past 12 months.

Engine Products and Services
Sales in the Engine Products and Services segment grew by 27% to $35.8
million as Fairbanks Morse shipped more engines and associated equipment than
it did in the second quarter of 2007. Compared to last year, profits in the
segment improved by 32% to $4.5 million and profit margins increased to 12.6%
as the engine business benefited from increased parts sales.

Cash Flows
At June 30, 2008, the company's cash balance stood at $77.1 million
compared to $129.2 million at December 31, 2007.
Operating activity contributed net cash of $55.2 million in the first half
of the year, compared to $44.1 million in the first half of 2007. Operating
cash flows improved as a result of higher earnings, which more than offset
increased working capital levels. Working capital increases are typical in the
first half of the year as seasonal activity increases. Payments of asbestos
claims and expenses, net of insurance receipts, were $1.8 million in the first
half of 2008 compared to $3.2 million a year ago.
Capital expenditures were $26.1 million in the first half of 2008 compared
to $19.2 million in the first six months of 2007. The company continues to
invest in its operations, including the modernization of Garlock's Palmyra,
New York manufacturing facility and other projects supporting continuous
improvement in the company's operations.
The company spent $36.9 million on acquisitions in the first half of the
year as it completed transactions to acquire Sinflex Sealing Technologies,
V.W. Kaiser Engineering and Air Perfection. The company also spent $50.2
million in the first half of 2008 in connection with a share repurchase
program which resulted in the retirement of about 1.7 million shares of common
stock.
Outlook
While the company expects economic conditions to soften in some markets in
the second half of the year, results should continue to benefit from EnPro's
access to a broad range of markets, its growing international presence and
acquisitions completed over the past 12 months.
The company expects its cash balances for the remainder of the year to be
affected by significant increases in net outflows for asbestos claims and
expenses, as well as any acquisitions completed before the end of the year.
Cash balances are also likely to be affected by a final settlement payment
in connection with the company's ASR and by any other shares repurchased under
the company's $100 million share repurchase authorization. The company expects
the ASR to be completed by the end of August, at which time it will owe a
settlement of about $11 million, based on recent share prices. While the
company has the option to make the payment by delivering common shares, it
currently expects to make the settlement in cash. After a cash payment, the
company will have completed $61 million of the authorization, leaving the
remainder to be used for additional share repurchases over the next several
months, subject to market conditions, the company's financial results and
other factors.
"Many of our U.S. and European markets face uncertain economic conditions
brought on by high energy prices and other well-publicized factors," said
Macadam. "We expect these developments, combined with normal seasonal
reductions in activity, to slow our rate of growth in the second half of the
year in comparison to the first half. However, we expect our operating
performance to continue to improve and our operating results to exceed those
we reported in the second half of 2007."

Management of the Company believes that it would be helpful to the readers
of the financial statements to understand the impact of certain selected items
on the Company's reported net income and earnings per share, including items
that may recur from time to time. This presentation enables readers to better
compare EnPro Industries, Inc. to other diversified industrial manufacturing
companies that do not incur significant asbestos-related expenses, the
sporadic impact of restructuring activities or discontinued operations.
Management acknowledges that there are many items that impact a company's
reported results and this list is not intended to present all items that may
have impacted these results.
The amounts above, which may be considered non-GAAP financial measures,
are shown on an after-tax basis and have been calculated by applying a 37.5%
assumed effective tax rate to the pre-tax amount. The pre-tax amounts for the
asbestos-related expenses are separately presented in the accompanying
consolidated statements. The restructuring costs, warranty claim settlement
and gain on sale of assets are included as part of other operating expense
(income), the proxy related expenses are included in other (non-operating)
expense and the CEO transition costs are included in selling, general and
administrative expenses. Per share amounts were calculated by dividing by the
weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding during the periods.
