MAYFIELD VILLAGE, Ohio, Aug. 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Preformed Line Products Company (Nasdaq: PLPC) today reported financial results for its second quarter and first six months of 2016.
Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $2,755,000, or $.53 per diluted share, compared to $3,680,000, or $.68 per diluted share, for the comparable period in 2015.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $5,413,000, or $1.04 per diluted share, compared to $3,424,000, or $.63 per diluted share, for the comparable period in 2015.
Net sales were $161,903,000 for the first six months of 2016 compared to $173,659,000 in the first six months of 2015.
Currency translation rates unfavorably impacted net sales by $4,575,000 for the quarter and $10,585,000 for the first six months of 2016, and had an unfavorable impact on net income of $484,000 for the quarter and $916,000 for the first six months of 2016.
Rob Ruhlman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "In constant dollars, our worldwide sales were flat in the second quarter in the face of continuing sluggish global economies. Our persistent focus on efficiencies in our manufacturing processes and cost reductions coupled with a more profitable product sales mix led to consecutive quarters of gross profit improvement. We remain committed to operational improvements, pursuing margin enhancements and providing superior customer service during a period of reduced governmental infrastructure expansion that extends beyond our domestic markets."
