Terex Corporation announced income from continuing operations of $83.6 million, or $0.75 per share for the second quarter of 2012, as compared to income from continuing operations of $0.9 million, or $0.01 per share for the second quarter of 2011. Excluding the impact of restructuring and other costs and the gain on the sale of Bucyrus International shares, income from continuing operations as adjusted in the second quarter of 2011 was $0.10 per share. 

"We had a strong second quarter", commented Ron DeFeo, Terex chairman and CEO. "This year's focus has been to improve margins, generate cash and integrate Demag Cranes AG. We are on or ahead of expectations in these categories. Margin improvement resulted from better price realization and cost discipline. We generated free cash flow of approximately $155 million primarily from profit improvement. The integration team has identified and is beginning implementation of improvement opportunities and realizing synergies."
