Gross profit for the third quarter was $8.8 million with a 16.2% gross margin, compared to $9.2 million with a 15.0% gross margin in the comparable period in 2011 and compared sequentially to $8.4 million with 13.5% gross margin the second quarter of 2012.

Net income attributable to Arabian American Development Company for the third quarter was down 10.3% to $3.5 million, or $0.15 per basic and $0.14 per diluted share, compared to net income of approximately $3.9 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter last year and compared sequentially to $3.8 million, or $0.16 per basic and $0.15 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2012.

The Company appointed Simon Upfill-Brown to the newly created position of Executive Vice President; an internationally known executive, Mr. Upfill-Brown will be responsible for the South Hampton Resources petrochemical business and expanding current opportunities both domestically and internationally.

Al Masane Al Kobra Mine (AMAK) Update

The AMAK zinc and copper mine in Saudi Arabia, which is 37% owned by Arabian American, has produced approximately 425,000 metric tons of ore to date, and is currently averaging 1,500 metric tons per day.

The AMAK mill has produced approximately 10,600 dry metric tons of copper concentrate and 13,000 dry metric tons of zinc concentrate to date.

The AMAK mill passed the production test of 54,000 metric tons of ore processed and four continuous days of 100% capacity during the month of July.

Initial shipment of copper concentrate was loaded and shipped during October, with the next shipment expected in mid-December 2012. Final signatures on two of the four additional leases in the area surrounding the AMAK mine are expected to be signed after the Eid holiday.

Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results

Revenue for the third quarter decreased 11.8% to $54.3 million from $61.5 million in the same period last year and sequentially compared to $61.8 million reported in second quarter of 2012. Petrochemical product sales represented $53.2 million, or 98.0%, of total revenue for the third quarter of 2012 and $60.1 million, or 97.6%, of total revenue, for the third quarter last year. Petrochemical product sales decreased by 11.5% in the third quarter of 2012 from the third quarter of 2011 due to an decrease in volume of 2.3% and a decrease in the average selling price of 9.4%. The Company reported $1.1 million in toll processing fees during the third quarter of 2012 compared to $1.5 million for the prior year's third quarter due to one tolling customer having raw material issues.

During the third quarter of 2012, the cost of sales and processing (including depreciation) decreased 13.0%, to $45.5 million as compared to $52.3 million in the same period in 2011 due to slightly lower volume processed and a decrease in the average feedstock cost per gallon. Average feedstock price per gallon decreased 17.0% from 2011 to 2012 while volume processed decreased 4.6%. Total gross profit on revenue for the third quarter of 2012 decreased approximately $0.4 million, or 4.9%, to $8.8 million as compared to $9.2 million in the same period in 2011 and compared sequentially to $8.4 million in the second quarter of 2012. The cost of sales and processing and gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2012, includes no gain or loss from derivative transactions. For the same period of 2011, there was a net loss of approximately $0.4 million.

Nick Carter, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We continue to execute our strategic initiatives which include continued supply of quality product and service to existing customers, expanding our geographic footprint, and pursuing and identifying appropriate opportunities for expanding our South Hampton Resources core business. We are also assisting and supporting the full scale operation of the AMAK mine which includes pursuing the surrounding lease application areas in Saudi Arabia."

Mr. Carter continued, "Year-to-date revenues were up over 25%, gross profit was up by 51% and net income attributable to Arabian American was up almost 119%. Demand for the Company's products continued to be strong in the third quarter both domestically and internationally, and our fundamentals remain solid. However, quarterly revenues decreased due to a slight decrease in volume and the continued decline in the average selling price which began in the spring and continued throughout the summer months. During the quarter, we renewed one three-year contract with an existing Middle Eastern customer and signed an additional contract with a new Middle Eastern customer on a six-month trial basis."

Mr. Carter concluded, "During the quarter the AMAK mine sold its first quantities of zinc and copper concentrate from the mill which is running currently at about 95% capacity and entering the stage of full and routine operation. The permanent facility for storing and loading concentrates at the Port of Jizan is complete and was used for the first shipment. We are extremely pleased with the performance and productivity of the mine and the entire staff that is supporting its ongoing operation."

General and Administrative costs for the third quarter of 2012 increased $0.1 million or 2.7%, to $3.1 million from $3.0 million in the same period last year primarily due primarily to increases in insurance premiums including health, worker's compensation and liability offset by a decrease in officer compensation due to reduced profit sharing distributions.

The Company reported net income attributable to Arabian American Development Company in the third quarter of 2012 of approximately $3.5 million or $0.15 per basic and $0.14 per diluted share (based on 24.1 million basic and 24.8 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding, respectively). This compares to net income attributable to Arabian American Development Company of approximately $3.9 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share for the third quarter of 2011 (based on 24.0 million basic and 24.5 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding, respectively) and sequentially to $3.8 million, or $0.16 per basic and $0.15 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2012 (based on 24.1 million basic and 24.8 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding, respectively).

EBITDA for the third quarter of 2012 decreased 6.6% to approximately $6.4 million compared to $6.8 million for the same period in 2011 and compared sequentially to $6.5 million in the second quarter of 2012.

YTD 2012 Financial Results

Consolidated revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased 25.3% to $172.9 million compared to revenue of $138.0 million in the same period in 2011 primarily due to an increase in total sales volume of 32.5%. Petrochemical product sales represented $169.7 million or 98.1%, of total revenue for the nine months of 2012 compared to $134.4 million, or 97.4% of total revenue, for the same period last year. The Company generated $3.2 million in toll processing fees, down 10.0%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with $3.6 million for the same period last year.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the cost of petrochemical sales and processing (including depreciation) increased approximately $26.8 million, or 21.9%, as compared to the same period in 2011 due to an increase in volume processed of 26.9% because of higher demand and an increase of $1.8 million in realized/unrealized hedging losses offset by a reduction in the LIFO allowance of $0.4 million. Average feedstock price per gallon decreased by 7.3% from 2011 to 2012.

Total gross profit on revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, increased approximately $8.1 million, or 51.4%, to $23.9 million, as compared to $15.8 million for the same period in 2011. The cost of sales and processing and gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, includes a net loss of approximately $1.8 million from derivative transactions. For the same period of 2011, the net loss was approximately $109,000.

Year-to-date General and Administrative costs increased $0.6 million or 7.6%, to $8.8 million from $8.1 million in the same period in 2011 due to increases in management and administrative compensation, travel expense, health insurance premiums, Saudi administrative expenses, accounting fees, and liability and property insurance premiums offset by a decrease in post-retirement benefits.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company reported net income attributable to Arabian American Development Company of approximately $9.5 million, or $0.40 per basic and $0.38 per diluted share (based on 24.1 million basic and 24.8 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding, respectively), compared to net income of approximately $4.4 million, or $0.18 per basic and diluted share (based on 24.0 million basic and 24.6 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding, respectively) for the year-ago period.

EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, was $17.2 million as compared to $9.7 million for the same period in 2011.

The Company completed the quarter with $3.0 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $6.7 million as of December 31, 2011. Trade receivables decreased by approximately $1.4 million due to a 9.4% decrease in price per gallon and a 2.3% decrease in volume sold during the third quarter. The average collection period remains normal for the business. Inventory increased approximately $0.9 million due to a 10.2% increase in volume partially offset by a 6.0% decrease in cost per gallon.

The Company had $29.1 million in working capital compared to $29.7 million in working capital as of December 31, 2011. It ended the quarter with a current ratio of 3.6 to 1. Shareholders' equity increased to $76.0 million as of September 30, 2012, from $66.0 million as of December 31, 2011.

Thanks...

[THESTCOKHUNTER]

looks to me like it could, I'm glad to see ARSD shelf out some shares because it trades so thin, besides it's not a lot of dilution yet small enough for the market to absorb, shares are held tight.

good luck

[Jtexman]

Think this is moving up tomorrow?

[THESTCOKHUNTER]

looks like ARSD aiming to grow some more.

Arabian American Development (NASDAQ:ARSD) is a two-for-one stock. That means it has two great growth drivers in one company. ARSD not only owns and operates a petrochemical facility in southeast Texas, it also owns a significant stake in a mining company in Saudi Arabia:
ARSD makes chemical products from petroleum. It has a 60% North American market share in Styrofoam and similar products used in drinking cups, food packaging and the like. It also uses petroleum to make adhesives and rubber products. The company also owns a 37% stake in a Saudi Arabian mining operation for copper, zinc, gold and sliver. The mine is expected to be operational in the coming days, which will provide an excellent boost to earnings in the coming quarters.
In the most recent quarter, Arabian American Development’s sales rose 66.1% to $61.5 million, compared with $37 million in the same quarter a year ago. During the same period, earnings rose 128.6% to $3.9 million — or 16 cents per share compared with $1.7 million, or 7 cents per share a year ago. The analyst community was expecting earnings of 9 cents per share, so Arabian American Development posted a 77.8% earnings surprise. Looking forward, the analyst community is expecting annual fourth-quarter sales growth of 99.2% and 750% annual earnings growth.
In the past month, the analyst community has revised their consensus forecast for earnings by 105.9%. Typically, such aggressive earnings revisions precede future earnings surprises. The stock is a good buy, but is thinly traded, so I must insist that you try to buy the stock with a limit order within 10 cents of the previous day’s closing price. Under no circumstances should you try to buy this stock with a market order, since you could send it soaring and hurt yourself and other investors.

Arabian American Development Stock Soars (ARSD)

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Shares of Arabian American Development Company (Nasdaq:ARSD) have taken a tremendous swing upward. The stock is trading at $8.43 as of 9:33 a.m. ET, 22.3% above Friday's closing price of $6.89. Volume is at 36,105, 1.5 times the daily average of 23,900.

Arabian American Development has a market cap of $156.1 million and is part of the basic materials sector and energy industry. Shares are up 55.9% year to date as of the close of trading on Friday.

Arabian American Development Company, through its subsidiaries, owns and operates a petrochemical facility located in southeast Texas, which specializes in high purity petrochemical solvents and other solvent type manufacturing. The company has a P/E ratio of 33, equal to the average energy industry P/E ratio and above the S&P 500 P/E ratio of 17.7.

TheStreet Ratings rates Arabian American Development as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, compelling growth in net income, solid stock price performance and impressive record of earnings per share growth. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company shows weak operating cash flow. You can view the full Arabian American Development Ratings Report.

SUGAR LAND, Texas , Dec. 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Arabian American Development Co. (Nasdaq: ARSD - News) today provided a business update on several aspects of its operations. This update announced:

* The AMAK (Al Masane Al Kobra Mining Company) mine in Saudi Arabia , which is 37% owned by Arabian American, has officially been transferred to the surface facility operator, China National Geological & Mining Corporation. Operations began on November 28, 2011 , after successful completion of the construction phase of the mine.
* The Petrochemical subsidiary, South Hampton Resources, began shipping commercial quantities on a previously announced contract that will add approximately $24 million in annual revenue at current prices.

Nick Carter , President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "The transfer of the mine happened smoothly, and all indications are that it is working well. It is exciting to see the entire mining package come together on what is essentially a brand new, startup venture. We hope that interested investors and shareholders will join us for the upcoming mine tour that we have scheduled for February 13-16, 2012 , in Saudi Arabia ."

Mr. Carter concluded, "We continue to diversify our customer base in the petrochemical business and capitalize on market opportunities as reflected by the shipment of commercial quantities of a specialty hydrocarbon blend. These shipments represent performance on a contract which is in the final three years of a previously announced five-year term. During the first two years of the contract, we shipped test quantities to the customer's facility. Beginning in November we started shipping commercial quantities. This volume represents approximately 16% of the throughput capacity of our specialty petrochemical facility."

Did you establish any position? ARSD still a ways to go, slow and steady no pump n dump here, strictly fundamentals is what driving the share price, yes thin trades but tight share structure, think
$9 or $10 soon, then into the mid teens by summer, been following
ARSD since, well go to first post.

good trades
