Despite significant plant downtime experienced in the quarter to manage through the contraction and handle scheduled maintenance activities, we extended our positive net earnings performance for a fourth consecutive quarter. The Forged and Cast Engineered Products segment delivered improved results for the quarter compared to prior year, while the Air and Liquid Processing segment remained a stable force with results equaling prior year. Our successful equity raise during Q3 strengthened our balance sheet considerably and with significant liquidity and operating leverage, we are well positioned to capitalize on recovery in our end markets.”
