ORLANDO, Fla., May 14, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gencor Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: GENC) announced today net revenues of $21.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 compared to $26.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Gross margins for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 were 28.8% compared with 28.2% for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. During the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company continued to experience higher manufacturing costs associated with steel and OEM parts pricing, as well as unabsorbed manufacturing labor and overhead expenses related to the paver line. The negative effect of these higher manufacturing costs on the quarter ended March 31, 2021, was offset by improved margins on certain equipment sales recognized over time and increased parts sales, in dollars and as a percentage of total net revenues, at higher margins.

Product engineering and development expenses increased $0.4 million to $1.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $0.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, primarily related to the paver product line. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased by $1.3 million to $3.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2020. The increase in SG&A expenses was due to expenses related to establishing the paver line and professional fees to support business development efforts.

Operating income decreased from $4.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 to $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, due primarily to the operational and start-up costs related to the Blaw-Knox acquisition and professional fees to support business development efforts.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company had non-operating income of $1.6 million compared to non-operating expense of $4.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Included in non-operating expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 were net realized and unrealized losses on marketable securities of $5.7 million, due to the decline in the domestic equity markets in March 2020. The effective income tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, and benefit for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, was 20%. Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 was $2.3 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $(0.7) million, or $(0.04) per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

For the six months ended March 31, 2021 the Company had net revenue of $40.3 million and net income of $3.8 million ($0.26 per diluted share) versus net revenue of $44.0 million and net income of $1.8 million ($0.12 per diluted share) for the six months ended March 31, 2020.

At March 31, 2021, the Company had $123.1 million of cash and marketable securities compared to $125.1 million at September 30, 2020. Net working capital was $153.6 million at March 31, 2021. The Company had no short-term or long-term debt outstanding at March 31, 2021.

The Company’s backlog was $42.6 million at March 31, 2021 compared to $24.5 million at March 31, 2020.

John Elliott, Gencor’s CEO, stated, “Despite higher raw material and associated purchased goods costs, Gencor was able to maintain gross margins in the second quarter.  Revenues were modest compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2020 primarily due to a higher portion of revenue recognition from contracts recognized over time in fiscal 2020.  Production and deliveries were minimally affected by COVID-19 related precautions in the quarter. Steel prices continued to increase and lead times on purchased goods remain a challenge.

We have experienced a pickup in demand for our equipment since the November 2020 election.  Backlog exceeded $42M going into the third quarter, which is well above historic norms.  We see renewed optimism that additional Federal infrastructure funding should be approved in the second half of 2021.

Our recently acquired Blaw-Knox brand and associated assets has been successfully moved to a separate manufacturing facility, where production of asphalt pavers has begun.  Parts sales for the paver products have been steady.  We anticipate continuing to invest in the brand to expand the market for both the equipment and parts sales.”

Gencor Industries is a diversified heavy machinery manufacturer for the production of highway construction materials, synthetic fuels and environmental control machinery and equipment used in a variety of applications.
