John E Reed, Chairman and CEO, indicated as follows:

While Mestek’s total first quarter profits were down substantially from the first quarter of 2005 those profits attributable to Continuing Operations improved modestly from a small loss in 2005 to a small profit in 2005 on a seven percent (7%) gain in revenues. Mestek’s HVAC business is seasonal in nature with a high percentage of net profits usually occurring in the second half of the year. Mestek is continuing to be challenged by rising and volatile prices of the raw materials it fabricates and the time lag required to pass along the resulting increased costs to its customers.
