Cooper Standard has posted second-quarter net income up 3.5% to US$41.9m, with sales increasing 2% to US$928m.

“Our team continued to perform well despite challenging market conditions in the quarter,” said Cooper Standard chairman and CEO, Jeffrey Edwards.

“We are on pace for a record year of new business awards and our focus on driving cost efficiencies generated nearly US$22m in savings within our core business. 

“In addition, we announced two acquisitions that will expand our product offerings and further diversify the markets we serve.  We expect improved performance in the second half of the year as the volume and mix of vehicle production returns to planned levels, especially in North America.”
