Lincoln Electric
reports 3Q'10 Sales increase of 17.5%; 3Q Operating income increase of 44.5% or
21.7%, as adjusted; 3Q EPS of $0.76 or $0.79, as adjusted
Karachi, Oct. 29
-- Lincoln Electric Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq: LECO)
today reported third quarter 2010 net income of $32.5 million, or $0.76 per
diluted share. Sales were $519.3 million in the third quarter of 2010 versus
$441.8 million in the comparable 2009 period, an increase of 17.5%. Operating
income for the third quarter increased $14.9 million to $48.2 million, or 9.3%
of sales, from $33.3 million in the comparable 2009 period. Adjusted operating
income in the quarter was $49.3 million, or 9.5% of sales. Net income for the
third quarter of 2010 was $32.5 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, compared

compared with 47.1% in 2009. "We continued to improve our operating
results during the quarter," said John M. Stropki, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer. "Our strong sales and operating profits are encouraging
in light of the weaker results we usually experience throughout Europe in the
third quarter. "Current demand levels are stable in most market segments
and geographical regions. I am cautiously optimistic that the global recovery
will continue as we focus on market share gains and achieving our international
expansion objectives. We also believe that our strong financial position will
continue to provide the flexibility to execute our long-term strategic
objectives to the benefit of our shareholders." Net cash provided by
operating activities was $56.0 million in the third quarter compared with $97.1
million for the comparable period in 2009. Sales for the nine months ended

the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $134.7 million, or 8.9% of sales.

$91.3 million, or $2.14 per diluted share, compared with $45.4 million, or

compared with 46.8% in 2009. Net cash provided by operating activities was
$103.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared with $231.3
million for the comparable period in 2009. The Company returned $58.6 million to

with the consolidation of manufacturing operations initiated in 2009. The nine
months ended September 30, 2010 include gains of $4,971 ($5,012 after-tax) on
the disposal of assets at rationalized operations offset by charges of $2,412
($2,116 after-tax) primarily associated with the consolidation of manufacturing
operations initiated in 2009. The three and nine month periods ended September
30, 2009 include primarily employee severance costs. (2) Represents the impact of
the change in the functional currency of the Company's Venezuelan operation to
the dollar and the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency. (3) Represents the
impact of the completion of the Company's 100% acquisition of Jinzhou Jin Tai
Welding and Metal Co., Ltd. and associated disposal of the Company's 35%
interest in Taiwan-based Kuang Tai Metal Industrial Co., Ltd. (4) Adjusted
operating income, Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share
are non-GAAP financial measures that management believes are important to
investors to evaluate and compare the Company's financial performance from
period to period. Management uses this information in assessing and evaluating
the Company's underlying operating performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should
be read in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures, as non-GAAP measures
are merely a supplement to, and not a replacement for, GAAP financial measures.
