Albany International Corp., a global advanced textiles and materials processing company with core businesses in machine clothing and engineered composites, reported Q1 2014 income attributable to the Company of $10.6 million. These results were reduced by restructuring charges of $1.2 million and income tax adjustments of $1.1 million, and were increased by foreign currency revaluation gains of $0.3 million.
 
First-Quarter Financial Highlights
Net sales were $180.3 million, a decrease of 3.4 percent compared to Q1 2013. Adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2014 was $37.8 million, compared to $33.8 million in Q1 2013.

Q1 2013 income attributable to the Company was $0.37 per share. These results were reduced by restructuring charges of $0.01 and income tax adjustments of $0.01, and were increased by foreign currency revaluation gains of $0.01 and a gain on the sale of a former manufacturing facility of $0.06.
 
“In sum, both businesses performed well in Q1, and barring any macroeconomic disruptions, both are on track for strong full-year performance consistent with both our short- and long-term expectations.”

In Q1 2014, AEC began LEAP production activities in its Rochester, New Hampshire, plant.

The full-year outlook for AEC remains unchanged.
