Chairman and CEO, Phillip DeZwirek, stated, “Our second quarter results mark our sixth consecutive quarter of record revenues and gross profitability. After eliminating those certain non-cash income and expense items related to the valuation of warrants and the related subordinated debt discount discussed above, our adjusted results for the quarter and six months more accurately reflect our significant progress.”
Mr. DeZwirek continued, “In May 2007, all our outstanding subordinated debt and all outstanding term notes were retired using the proceeds from a secondary offering. The remaining proceeds were applied to our revolving credit line which essentially leaves the Company debt free except for short term working capital borrowings. This strong financial position will allow us to continue pursuing our strategy of horizontal integration by acquisition and/or organic new business start-ups, and vertical integration into our family of companies. We still believe that our turnkey solution provides a distinct competitive advantage for us because it greatly simplifies our customers’ experience while providing them with access to a broad selection of products and services to meet their needs.”
CECO will host a conference call on Thursday, August 9, 2007 at 8:30 a.m. EDT to review its financial results for the quarter. Additional details, including the call in number, have been released separately.
