AAON News AAON Reports Record Sales and Higher Earnings

TULSA, Okla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 8, 2006--AAON, Inc. (Nasdaq:AAON) today announced its operating results for the second quarter and six-month period ended June 30, 2006.

In the quarter, revenues were a record high of $59,137,000, up 30.3% from $45,394,000 during the corresponding period in 2005, and net income increased 10.6% to $3,455,000 or $0.27 per share compared to $3,125,000 or $0.24 per share for the same period a year ago. Per share earnings are on a diluted basis.

Norman H. Asbjornson, President and CEO, stated that, "The increase in sales was attributable to an increase in the commercial and industrial construction activity, the Company's new and redesigned products being favorably received by its customers, and price increases during 2006." He said, "The increase in earnings resulted from both higher volume and price increases, partially offset by continuing material cost increases which decreased gross margins."

Net sales for the first six months of 2006 were up 27.9%, $112,757,000, compared to $88,174,000 in 2005, and earnings increased by 12.3% to $7,198,000 or $0.57 per share, compared to $6,412,000 or $0.50 per share.

Mr. Asbjornson said that, "Based upon our current record backlog of orders and the continuing trend of strong incoming orders, we believe that our full year 2006 total sales will be significantly above the 2005 level. The Company is currently seeing a moderating environment of raw material and component pricing and, if this trend continues, it should enable the Company to achieve improvement in gross margins over the remainder of the year."

Statements regarding future prospects and developments are based upon current expectations and involve certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.
