DALLAS, TEXAS .August 3, 2016 . CompX International Inc. (NYSE MKT: CIX) announced today sales of $27.1 million for the second quarter of 2016 compared to $28.9 million in the same period of 2015.  Operating income was $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $4.3 million in the same period in 2015.  Net income for the second quarter of 2016 was $2.4 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, compared to $2.8 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2015.    

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, sales were $54.2 million compared to $56.8 million in the previous year.  Operating income was $7.1 million for the first six months of 2016 compared to $8.0 million for 2015.  Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $4.6 million or $0.37 per diluted share, compared to $5.2 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, in 2015. 

Second quarter and year-to-date 2016 net sales and operating income decreased over the comparable 2015 periods primarily due to Security Products' sales for a government security end-user program that, as expected, did not recur in 2016.  The decreases in operating income for both comparative periods were also impacted by decreased leverage of fixed costs as a result of decreased production volumes partially offset by higher variable margins related to changes in customer and product mix, primarily in the Security Products segment.       

"The Security Products and Marine Components segments both posted solid sales performances for the first half of 2016," commented David A. Bowers, CEO. "With the exception of the nonrecurring project for the single Security Products customer, first half sales matched the exceptional levels achieved in the previous year. Our Marine Components segment continues to grow its sales through diversification and innovation in product offerings. Though we see little movement in general economic conditions, we continue to seek new opportunities to gain share with existing customers and expand markets through value-added products and features in both of our segments."

CompX is a leading manufacturer of security products and recreational marine components.  It operates from four locations in the U.S. and employs approximately 500 people.
