CLEVELAND, May 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Crawford United Corporation (OTC: CRAWA), a growth-oriented holding company serving diverse markets, today reported results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2022, sales were $31.0 million compared to $24.0 million in the same period last year, an increase of 29%. In this quarter, the Company recorded operating income of $1.4 million compared to $2.3 million in the same period last year. Net income was $1.1 million, or $0.31 per fully diluted share, compared to $3.1 million, or $0.93 per fully diluted share in the same period last year.

The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to the acquisitions of Global-Tek Manufacturing in March 2021 and Emergency Hydraulics in July 2021, as well as Reverso Pumps and Separ Filters of America in January 2022. The decrease in net income was due in part to non-cash stock awards valued at $0.9 million in the current quarter compared to $0.3 million in same quarter last year, based on the substantially higher share price this year. In addition, net income in the first quarter of 2021 was higher due to forgiveness of debt in the amount of $1.5 million under the CARES Act.

Brian Powers, President and CEO, stated “We are pleased with the ongoing recovery of our business from the pandemic and remain confident in our ability to achieve long-term strategic priorities. Our recent acquisitions of Reverso Pumps and Separ Filters of America will positively impact our levels of sales and earnings for the remainder of 2022. Crawford United is continuing to explore opportunities for increased revenue and improved profitability, always with an eye towards additional acquisitions.”
