CLEVELAND, OHIO, August 10, 2021 – Crawford United Corporation (OTC: CRAWA), a growth-oriented holding company serving diverse markets, today reported results for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2021.

 

For the quarter ended June 30, 2021, sales were $26.4 million compared with $18.6 million in the same period last year, an increase of 42%.  In this quarter, the Company recorded operating income of $2.1 million compared with operating income of $0.5 million in the same period last year, an increase of 299%. Net income was $1.2 million, or $0.37 per fully diluted share, compared to $0.2 million, or $0.07 per fully diluted share in the same period last year, an increase of 445% in net income.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, sales were $50.4 million compared to $43.9 million in the same period last year, an increase of 15%. In this six-month period, the Company recorded operating income of $4.4 million compared to operating income of $3.7 million in the same period last year, an increase of 21%.  Net income was $4.4 million, or $1.29 per fully diluted share, compared to $2.3 million, or $0.69 per fully diluted share in the same period last year, an increase of 90% in net income.

 

For the quarter and the six months ended June 30, 2021, the increases in sales and operating income were due to the acquisitions of Komtek Forge and Global-Tek Manufacturing, as well as organic growth and a recovery in customer demand as we emerge from the global pandemic. Net income was positively impacted by forgiveness of debt in the amount of $1.5 million under the CARES Act.

 

Brian Powers, Chief Executive Officer, stated “We are pleased with the ongoing success of our business model. Our recent acquisitions of Komtek Forge, Global-Tek Manufacturing and Emergency Hydraulics will positively impact our levels of sales and earnings for the remainder of 2021. Crawford United is continuing to explore opportunities for increased revenue and improved profitability, always with an eye towards additional acquisitions.”
