"We believe that the third quarter was yet another significant period on our way to becoming a global leader in the electric motor industry. Our goal is to build China's largest and most diversified developer and manufacturer of electric motors across all technologies: linear motors, micro-motors, and rotary motors, a company that we believe will produce great returns in periods of global economic growth but will also perform well in times of economic uncertainty thanks to the diversification of its products and customer base."
"First, we have achieved the best quarter in the Company's history in terms of our operating results despite continuing economic challenges, particularly in North America. Robust orders in oil pumps and industrial rotary motors in China helped offset continued weakness in specialty micro motors and overseas sales," said Tianfu Yang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Harbin Electric.
"I am very proud of these record operating results and very thankful for the hard work of our staff who overcame capacity constraints with substantial overtime work to meet increased demand for our products and to keep our customers happy."
"Secondly, we completed the acquisition of Xi'an Tech Full Simo Motor and the integration and consolidation of its business with our other businesses are moving smoothly. Xi'an Simo has also been experiencing robust demand in its rotary motors and orders are exceeding current capacity due to limited equipment and production lines. While we are working on a plan to expand capacity and improve manufacturing efficiency, we expect Xi'an Simo to contribute solidly to our total operating results beginning next quarter."
Looking forward, Mr. Yang said, "We expect operating results in the fourth quarter to remain strong. While oil pump sales should be seasonally softer and the subway train project is continuing its final testing stage, we expect our rotary motors order book to remain robust and to exceed current capacity. Additionally, we expect the linear motor freight train project for coal transportation to begin contributing to our total revenues and profits in the coming quarters. In the specialty micro-motor business, while we see some higher order volumes going into the fourth quarter with existing products, our Shanghai facility is working hard with our North American customers and we anticipate that this facility will begin the production of new products soon."
Revenues
Total revenues of $46.93 million were up 18% from $39.66 million in the third quarter of 2008 ("3Q08") and up 22% from $38.36 million in the second quarter of 2009 ("2Q09"). International sales totaled $3.30 million for the quarter, down 45% and 7% from $6.06 million and $3.58 million in the third quarter of 2008 and the second quarter of 2009, respectively, reflecting continued economic weakness in North America.
Compared with 3Q08, higher revenues in this quarter were driven by growth in the linear motor and industrial rotary motor businesses. Linear motor sales were up 18% mainly due to significant higher sales of oil pumps to Daping Oil Field, with 259 units sold compared to 64 units in the same quarter of 2008. Higher sales in oil pumps more than offset the sales decline in other linear motors and related systems. Continued strong demand for rotary motors boosted industrial rotary motor sales by 37%.
Compared with 2Q09, sales increased 22%, driven by a 42% growth in linear motors and a 22% growth in the industrial rotary motors, while sales of specialty micro-motors and other products remained relatively flat. Robust sales of oil pumps were the major contributor to sales growth in linear motors (259 units of oil pumps in 3Q09 versus 105 units in 2Q09).
The following table presents the revenue contribution by percentage for each major product line in 3Q09 in comparison with 3Q08 and 2Q09.

    International Sales                  7.0%         15.3%           9.3%

Net Income
The Company recorded a net loss of $1.91 million, or a loss of $0.07 per diluted share, in this quarter, which included special non-cash and non-recurring items totaling a loss of $12.86 million or $(0.47) per diluted share. This compared with a net income of $7.75 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, in 3Q08 and a net loss of $5.42 million, or $(0.24) per diluted share, in 2Q09, which included special non-cash and non-recurring items totaling a loss of $12.84 million or $(0.58) per diluted share.
The adjusted net income of $10.95 million, or the adjusted EPS of $0.40 per diluted share, for 3Q09 excludes special non-cash and non-recurring items including a gain of $4.16 million on debt repurchase, a loss of $7.28 million additional amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs associated with the repurchase of 2010 Notes and 2012 Notes, a loss of $9 million due to the termination of the cross currency interest rate swap, and a loss of $0.74 million due to change in fair value of the warrants outstanding. This adjusted net income compares, on the same basis, with the net income of $7.75 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, in 3Q08, and adjusted net income of $7.42 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, in 2Q09, respectively.
Compared to 3Q08, the higher adjusted net income was primarily driven by higher sales. Other factors such as higher gross margin, higher non-operating income, and relatively lower operating cost and lower interest expense also contributed.
Compared to 2Q09, the higher adjusted net income was mainly attributable to higher sales, higher gross margin, and relatively lower operating cost.
Gross Profit Margin
The following table presents the average gross profit margin by product line for 3Q09, in comparison to 3Q08 and 2Q09. The improvement in overall gross profit margin was primarily due to changes in product mix where sales of higher gross margin oil pumps increased sharply in the quarter. The slight decline in gross margin in the industrial rotary motor business was mainly due to higher raw material costs.

Operating Profit
Operating profits of $13.04 million in 3Q09 represented a 24% increase from $10.52 million in 3Q08 and a 48% growth from $8.82 million in 2Q09.
Compared to 3Q08, higher operating earnings benefited from increased sales and improved gross margin. Total operating costs including selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses and research & development (R&D) expenses, were $3.72 million for the current quarter, compared to $3.25 million for the same quarter in 2008. As a percentage of total sales, operating costs decreased from 8.2% to 7.9%. Operating margin improved to 27.8% from 26.5% in the same quarter of last year. The margin improvement was primarily attributable to a higher gross margin and relatively lower operating costs.
Compared to the second quarter of 2009, operating profits increased by $4.23 million, primarily driven by higher sales, higher gross margin, and lower SG&A expenses. Operating margin improved to 27.8% from 23.0% in the previous quarter, driven by higher gross margin and lower SG&A expenses. As a percentage of total sales, operating costs declined to 7.9% from 10.6% in the previous quarter.
Interest expense
Net interest expense was $8.48 million for 3Q09, which included $8.21 million amortization of debt discount, of which $6.60 million was related to the debt repurchase, and $0.90 million to amortization of debt issuance costs, of which $0.68 million was related to the debt repurchase. Excluding these special charges, net interest expense was $1.20 million. This compares to net interest expense of $2.06 million for 3Q08 and $0.84 million for 2Q09. In all periods, net interest expense included non-cash amortization expense of debt discount and debt issuance cost.
Income Taxes
The income tax provision was $1.95 million for the current quarter, compared with $1.41 million and $1.48 million for 3Q08 and 2Q09, respectively.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The management of Harbin Electric uses non-GAAP adjusted net earnings to measure the performance of the Company's business internally by excluding non-recurring items as well as special non-cash charges. The Company's management believes that these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures allow the management to focus on managing business operating performance because these measures reflect the essential operating activities of Harbin Electric and provide a consistent method of comparison to historical periods. The Company believes that providing the non-GAAP measures that management uses internally to its investors is useful to investors for a number of reasons. The non-GAAP measures provide a consistent basis for investors to understand Harbin Electric's financial performance in comparison to historical periods without variation of non-recurring items and non-operating related charges. In addition, it allows investors to evaluate the Company's performance using the same methodology and information as that used by the management. Non-GAAP measures are subject to inherent limitations because they do not include all of the expenses included under GAAP and because they involve the exercise of judgment of which charges are excluded from GAAP financial measure. However, the management of Harbin Electric compensates for these limitations by providing the relevant disclosure of the items excluded.
