GENCOR RELEASES FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2023 RESULTS

February 10, 2023 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) - Gencor Industries, Inc. (the “Company” or “Gencor”) (NYSE American: GENC) announced today net revenues increased 28.4% to $25,825,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 compared to $20,106,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, due to higher contract equipment and parts sales. Gross margins were 22.5% for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 compared to 18.4% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 on increased production and favorable price realization.

Product engineering and development expenses decreased $452,000 to $897,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $1,349,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, due primarily to lower headcount. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased by $600,000 to $2,799,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, compared to $3,399,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. The decrease in SG&A expenses was primarily due to reduced wages and benefits on lower headcount and reduced professional expenses.

The Company had operating income of $2,119,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 compared to an operating loss of $(1,043,000) for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. The improved operating results were due to higher net revenues, improved margins and lower operating expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 2022.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2022, the Company had net non-operating income of $2,455,000 compared to $700,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. Included in net non-operating income for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 were net realized and unrealized gains on marketable securities of $1,962,000 compared to $423,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. The higher gains in fiscal 2023 were due to a stronger domestic stock market during the quarter ended December 31, 2022.

The effective income tax rates for the quarters ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were 24.0% and 20.0%, respectively. The higher tax rate in fiscal 2023 is due to an anticipated reduction in R&D tax credits, effective for the Company’s fiscal 2023. Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 was $3,476,000, or $0.24 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $(274,000), or $(0.02) per basic and diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2021.

At December 31, 2022, the Company had $97.7 million of cash and marketable securities compared to $98.9 million at September 30, 2022. Net working capital was $154.3 million at December 31, 2022 compared to $150.1 million at September 30, 2022. The Company had no short-term or long-term debt outstanding at December 31, 2022.

The Company’s backlog was $42.5 million at December 31, 2022 compared to $58.0 million at December 31, 2021.

Marc Elliott, Gencor’s President, commented, “Our first quarter revenues grew approximately 28% year to year and 12% sequentially from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. I am pleased to see Gencor starting off the fiscal year with significant top-line growth and a solid backlog. Our vigorous quoting activity and keen interest in Gencor products portend a good second quarter, as we prepare to close new business in the coming weeks.

Our first quarter gross margins also improved to 22.5% due to stabilization of our material prices and price realization, but were offset by higher wages. Erratic supply chain issues continue to impact our manufacturing processes, but we remain vigilant in minimizing the disruption to our customers.

We are looking forward to exhibiting at the ConExpo-Con/Agg show in March and expect a healthy reception for our latest product innovations. I am proud of the hard work and dedication of our Gencor employees that delivered these solid results, and continue to identify opportunities to improve our performance.”
