ATC Technology Corporation Reports Second Quarter Results

&nsbp;
July 27, 2010

Downers Grove, Illinois, Tuesday, July 27, 2010 – ATC Technology Corporation (ATC) (NASDAQ-GS: ATAC), today reported financial results for the second quarter 2010.

Second Quarter Results

For the quarter ended June 30, 2010, revenue decreased 9.6% to $104.4 million from $115.5 million for the same period in 2009.  Income from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2010 was $7.8 million versus a loss of $16.7 million for the second quarter of 2009.  Income from continuing operations per diluted share for the quarter was $0.39, as compared to a loss of $0.85 per share or income of $0.53 per diluted share on an adjusted basis, for the second quarter of 2009.  Additionally, the Company recorded a loss from discontinued operations of $5.4 million, or $0.27 per share primarily related to the sale of its U.K.-based engine remanufacturing business.

Logistics segment revenue for the second quarter decreased 8.6% to $77.6 million from $84.9 million in the second quarter of 2009.  Logistics segment profit for the quarter decreased 24.2% to $11.9 million from $15.7 million in the same quarter of last year.  The decreases in revenue and profit were primarily attributable to a reduction in returns volumes with AT&T driven by increased device quality and wider consumer acceptance of smartphones and the impact of price concessions in connection with contract renewals, partially offset by an increase in revenue with TomTom.

Drivetrain segment revenue decreased 12.4% to $26.8 million from $30.6 million in the second quarter of 2009.  Second quarter segment loss was $0.4 million compared to a loss of $37.4 million, or segment profit of $1.7 million excluding a goodwill impairment charge of $37.0 million and restructuring charges of $2.1 million in last year’s second quarter.  The decreases were driven by the loss of the Honda transmission remanufacturing program and launch costs associated with new engine remanufacturing programs, which were partially offset by the cost savings attributable to last year’s restructuring of the Drivetrain business.

Todd R. Peters, President and CEO said, "On July 19, 2010 we announced that ATC had entered into a definitive agreement and plan of merger to be acquired by GENCO Distribution System, Inc. (GENCO), a privately held third-party provider of logistics services for retailers, manufacturers, and U.S. government agencies, in an all-cash merger valued at $512.6 million.  Our news release, along with our merger agreement and other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on July 19th, highlight various aspects of the proposed transaction.  In light of this recent development, specifically including the pending filing of our proxy statement related to the proposed transaction with GENCO, we will not hold a conference call on July 28th to discuss second quarter results as previously announced.

"I am pleased to report that during the second quarter in our Logistics business, we set the stage for growth in the second half of the year.  Although not material to the quarter’s result, we launched new or expanded programs with AT&T, U.S. Cellular, and a leading wireless device manufacturer.  We also won $38 million in new business.  These wins include the expansion of programs with existing customers, new programs with existing customers and a program with a new customer.  While revenue related to returns volumes with AT&T was down, it was in line with our expectations and recent run rate, and we benefitted from strong volumes with TomTom.  Our segment profit for the quarter of $11.9 million or 15.3% of net sales met our expectations.
 
 "Also, in early July, we invested $10 million in a joint venture with Genesis Networks Enterprises, LLC (Genesis), a leading minority-owned provider of network, IT and supply chain solutions to the communications industry, to form Genesis-ATC.  Genesis owns 51% of Genesis-ATC and our subsidiary, ATC Logistics & Electronics, Inc., owns the remaining 49%.  Genesis-ATC combines the strengths of two companies to provide value-added distribution services for consumer electronic products such as cable set-top boxes, along with field service support and reverse logistics services to AT&T and other customers.  Genesis-ATC will open a wider range of new business opportunities for both partners.  In certain cases, ATC Logistics & Electronics, Inc. will provide services to Genesis-ATC.

"As we previously announced, we sold the U.K.-based operation of our Drivetrain business in May to two senior members of the local management team.  During the quarter, we continued to make significant progress on the launch of the new U.S.-based engine remanufacturing programs.  We remain optimistic that we will achieve our modest profitability targets for the full year.

"I refer you to our Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 for additional details on our results."
