GENCOR RELEASES SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 2022 RESULTS

May 13, 2022 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) - Gencor Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: GENC) announced today net revenues of $30.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 compared to $21.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. Gross margins for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 were 20.2% compared with 28.8% for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company continued to experience higher manufacturing costs associated with wages, steel and OEM parts pricing.

Product engineering and development expenses decreased $0.2 million to $0.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $1.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, primarily related to reduced headcount. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased by $0.5 million to $3.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, compared to $3.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in SG&A expenses was due to reduced professional fees for business development.

Operating income increased from $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 to $1.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, due primarily to increased sales and reduced professional fees.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company had net non-operating expense of $(1.3) million compared to net non-operating income of $1.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. The fiscal 2022 investment losses reflect the decline in the equity markets due to higher interest rates, inflation, and the Federal Reserve’s recent monetary tightening policy.

The effective income tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 was 24.2% versus 20% for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 was $0.4 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, compared with a net income of $2.3 million, or $0.16 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

For the six months ended March 31, 2022 the Company had net revenue of $50.8 million and net income of $0.2 million ($0.01 per diluted share) versus net revenue of $40.3 million and net income of $3.8 million ($0.26 per diluted share) for the six months ended March 31, 2021.

At March 31, 2022, the Company had $117.1 million of cash and marketable securities compared to $118.2 million at September 30, 2021. Net working capital was $154.7 million at March 31, 2022. The Company had no short-term or long-term debt outstanding at March 31, 2022.

The Company’s backlog was $44.9 million at March 31, 2022 compared to $42.6 million at March 31, 2021.

Marc Elliott, Gencor’s President, commented, “Gencor delivered solid second quarter results considering the current challenging business environment. Revenues increased 43.6% due to the strong backlog entering the quarter and solid execution in the quarter. Commodity prices began to show some improvement in the first quarter, but reversed course in the second quarter likely due to the Russian - Ukrainian conflict and the effect of sanctions on steel. Though labor, supply chain and freight challenges persist, we believe that revenues for the remainder of fiscal 2022 will continue to be solid.

Every employee at Gencor is focused on overcoming the current supply chain challenges to minimize delivery interruptions to our customers. The recent World of Asphalt show in March generated very positive feedback from our loyal customers following a prolonged pandemic and virtually dormant tradeshow circuit. We continue to see strong interest across all our product lines and are optimistic that Gencor will benefit from the Federal infrastructure bill in the coming years.”
