This Form 10-Q and the Company’s other communications and statements may contain “forward-looking statements,” including statements about the Company’s beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, estimates, projections and intentions. These statements are subject to significant risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. The words “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “target,” “goal,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual future results may differ materially from those set forth in its forward-looking statements. For information concerning these factors and related matters, see Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in this Report, and the following sections of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2009: (a) “Risk Factors” in Part I, and (b) “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II. However, other factors besides those referenced could adversely affect the Company’s results, and you should not consider any such list of factors to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties. Any forward-looking statements made by the Company herein speak as of the date of this Report. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, except as required by law.

Unless the context otherwise indicates, all references in this report to the “Company,” “Gencor,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” or similar words are to Gencor Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2010.

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2009 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Gencor Industries, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2009.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued authoritative guidance codifying generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). While the guidance was not intended to change GAAP, it did change the way the Company references authoritative literature. The Company adopted this authoritative guidance during the third quarter of fiscal 2009.

In May 2009, the FASB established standards related to accounting for, and disclosures of, events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The Company adopted the provisions of this new authoritative guidance, which became effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date and time the financial statements were issued on February 16, 2010. No material subsequent events have occurred since December 31, 2009 that required recognition or disclosure in our current period financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance requiring additional disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies. The Company adopted this guidance in the third quarter of fiscal 2009 which did not have any impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued new authoritative guidance that amended the “other-than-temporary impairment” guidance for debt securities. The pre-existing “intent and ability” trigger was modified such that an “other-than-temporary impairment” is now triggered when there is intent to sell the security, it is more likely than not that the security will be required to be sold before recovery in value, or the security is not expected to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security (“credit related loss”). Credit related losses on debt securities will be considered an “other-than-temporary impairment” recognized in earnings, and any other losses due to a decline in fair value relative to the amortized cost deemed not to be other-than-temporary will be recorded in other comprehensive income. The Company adopted this guidance in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 which did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Marketable securities are categorized as trading securities and stated at fair value. Fair value is determined using the quoted closing or latest bid prices. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined by

specific identification and are recognized as incurred in the statements of operations. Net unrealized gains and losses are reported in the statements of operations and represent the change in the fair value of investment holdings during the period. At December 31, 2009, marketable securities consisted of $48.4 million in municipal bonds, $9.2 in equity stocks and $1.6 million in cash equivalents, and are included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At September 30, 2009, marketable securities consisted of $49.4 million in municipal bonds, $7.1 million in equity stocks and $1.0 million in cash equivalents.

The fair value of financial instruments is presented based upon a hierarchy of levels that prioritizes the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

If available, quoted market prices are used to value investments. Municipal bonds are valued at the closing price reported by the most active market on which the individual securities are traded (Level 1).

The following tables set forth, by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s assets measured at fair value as of December 31, 2009:

The components of costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts include the following:

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share for the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008:

The total comprehensive loss for the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were losses of $224 and $611, respectively. Total comprehensive loss differs from net loss due to gains and losses resulting from foreign currency translation, which are reflected separately in the shareholders’ equity section of the balance sheet under the caption “Accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”).” Due to the disposal of its foreign operations in June 2009, the AOCI was reduced to zero during 2009.

The Company owns a 45% interest in Carbontronics LLC and a 25% interest in Carbontronics Fuels LLC and Carbontronics II, LLC (“Investees”). These interests were earned as part of value of risk on contracts to build four synthetic fuel production plants during 1998. The Company has no basis in these equity investments or requirement to provide future funding. The operations of Carbontronics LLC consist of the receipt of contingent payments from the sales of the plants and the distribution thereof to its members. Carbontronics LLC has no other significant operations or assets. The operations of Carbontronics II, LLC consist of the receipt of royalty payments from the plants and the distribution thereof to its members. Carbontronics II, LLC has no other significant operations or assets. Any income arising from these investments is dependent upon tax credits

(adjusted for operating losses at the fuel plants) being generated as a result of synthetic fuel production, which will be recorded as received. The Company received $163 in distributions in December 2009 and $48 in December 2008. These distributions are subject to state and Federal income taxes.

The existing tax credit legislation expired at the end of calendar year 2007. Consequently, the four synthetic fuel plants were decommissioned. They were sold or transferred to site owners in exchange for a release of all contracted liabilities related to the removal of plants from the sites. The administrative partner has informed the Company that almost all of the partnership affairs were finalized in 2008, that there were no operations in calendar 2009 and none are expected in calendar 2010. It is not possible to predict the amount, if any, of final distributions from the partnerships upon the final disposition and winding-up of operations.

Note 9 – Subsequent Events For the quarter ended December 31, 2009, the Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through February 16, 2010, the date of financial statement issuance.

Gencor Industries, Inc., (the “Company”) is a leading manufacturer of heavy machinery used in the production of highway construction materials, synthetic fuels, and environmental control equipment. The Company’s core products include asphalt plants, combustion systems and fluid heat transfer systems. The Company’s products are manufactured in two facilities in the United States.

Because the Company’s products are sold primarily to the highway construction industry, the business is seasonal in nature. The majority of orders for the Company’s products are received between October and February, with a significant volume of shipments occurring prior to May. The principal factors driving demand for the Company’s products are the overall economic conditions, the level of government funding for domestic highway construction and repair, infrastructure development in emerging economies, the need for spare parts, fluctuations in the price of crude oil (liquid asphalt as well as fuel costs), and industry consolidation.

In August 2005, the federal government passed the Safe, Accountable, Flexible and Efficient Transportation Equity Act - A Legacy for Users (“SAFETEA-LU”). This bill appropriated a multi-year guaranteed funding of $286.5 billion for federal highway, transit and safety programs that expired on September 30, 2009. On February 17, 2009, President Obama signed into law the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, which included approximately $27.5 billion for highway and bridge construction activities. The Company believes that its customers are waiting on the states to move forward with potential projects as their purchasing decisions are significantly influenced by the federal government’s legislation on federal road building funding. The Company believes any new funding will have a positive impact on the Company’s financial performance, although the magnitude of that improvement cannot be determined.

In January 2009, the Canadian government announced its economic action plan to stimulate economic growth which included a $12 billion two year investment in new infrastructure including roads, bridges and other infrastructure. The Company believes that certain programs associated with this funding have had a positive impact on its financial performance although the magnitude of that impact cannot be determined.

Economic downturns like the one currently being experienced generally result in reduced purchasing within the Company’s served markets and thus have a direct impact on sales and tend to increase the pricing pressures on the Company’s products resulting in lower pricing and margins. The market price for an asphalt plant ranges from $2 to $6 million and may require the Company’s customers obtain financing. The current state of the financial industry and the tightening of the credit markets have had an adverse impact on the Company’s customers’ attitudes toward purchasing new equipment. On the positive side, the reduced value of the US dollar has resulted in more interest from international customers.

In addition to government funding and the overall economic conditions, fluctuations in the price of oil, which is a major component of asphalt mix, may affect the Company’s financial performance. An increase in the price of oil increases the cost of manufacturing asphalt and could therefore decrease demand for asphalt and certain of the Company’s products. The Company does not currently foresee the fluctuations in oil prices having a significant impact on its financial performance.

Steel is a major component used in manufacturing the Company’s equipment. Steel prices were at historically high levels during 2008 and the Company increased sales prices during 2008 to offset the rising steel costs. During the fourth quarter of 2008, steel prices retreated from their 2008 highs and continued the downward trend through the first half of 2009. Moderate increases have occurred during the past several months. In the current economy and competitive environment, the Company may not be able to raise prices to cover the increasing costs of steel and its financial results could be negatively affected.

For the long term, the Company believes the strategy of continuing to invest heavily in product engineering and development and its focus on delivering a high-quality product and superior service will strengthen the Company’s

market position when demand for capital equipment rebounds. In response to the short-term outlook, the Company has taken aggressive actions to conserve cash, right size its operations and cost structure, and will continue to do so based on its forecasts. These actions included adjustments to workforce and staffing, reduced purchases of raw materials and reductions in selling, general, and administrative expenses. The Company continues to review its internal processes to identify efficiencies and cost reductions and will continue scrutinizing its relationships with external suppliers to ensure the Company is achieving the highest-quality products and services at the most competitive cost.

Net sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were $11,070 and $19,260, respectively. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to the recessionary economy and the tightening of credit availability during calendar 2009, which resulted in lower unit volume sales and decreased unit selling prices. Sales related to the Company’s former United Kingdom operations included in the quarter ended December 31, 2008 were $809. The Company disposed of its operations in the United Kingdom in June 2009. The Company’s operations are concentrated in the asphalt-related business and subject to a seasonal slow-down during the third and fourth quarters of the calendar year. The Company cannot predict what impact the current recession will have on future earnings.

As a percent of sales, gross profit margins decreased from 26.7% in the quarter ended December 31, 2008 to 14.7% in the quarter ended December 31, 2009. Gross margins decreased primarily due to reduced revenues with less than a proportionate decrease in existing cost structures.

Product engineering and development expenses decreased 23.4% and selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 19.7% in the quarter ended December 31, 2009 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2008 due to decreases in personnel and related expenses, and decreases in commissions on reduced sales.

The Company had an operating loss of $1,351 for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 versus operating income of $1,403 for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. The reduction in operating income was primarily due to the reduced revenues and related reduction in overhead absorption which was partially offset by certain cost cutting measures taken by the Company.

As of December 31, 2009 the cost basis of the Company’s investment portfolio was $58.4 million as compared to $56.6 million at September 30, 2009. For the quarter ended December 31, 2009, net investment interest and dividend income from the investment portfolio was $582 as compared to $466 in the 2008 comparable quarter. The net realized and unrealized gains on marketable securities were $168 for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 versus a $2.4 million loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. The Company’s total cash and investment balance at December 31, 2009 was $65.2 million versus $61.2 million at September 30, 2009.

The effective income tax rates for the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were benefits of 37% and 38%, respectively.

The Company has maintained a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, N.A. The Credit Agreement originally established a three year revolving $20 million credit facility (“Credit Facility”) and was renewed through July 31, 2009. The Credit Facility provided for advances based on accounts receivable, inventory, and real estate. The facility included a $2 million limit on letters of credit. The Company was required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1:1. There were no required repayments as long as there were no defaults and there was adequate eligible collateral. Substantially all of the Company’s assets were pledged as security under the Credit Agreement.

The Company amended the Credit Agreement on July 23, 2009 (the “Third Amendment”). The Credit Agreement was set to expire on July 31, 2009, and rather than let it expire, the Company elected to amend the agreement and reduce the amount of the Credit Facility from $20 million to $1.5 million. The Credit Facility also includes a $1.285 million limit on letters of credit, which was reduced from the original $2 million limit. The Company elected to reduce its Credit Facility because it believed the higher amount associated with the original line was not needed. The Company is currently evaluating other options for a new revolving credit facility. Pursuant to the Third Amendment, the Company’s Credit Facility shall continue until April 30, 2010, unless terminated sooner. Under the Third Amendment, substantially all representations, warranties, covenants, rights, duties and obligations set forth in the original agreement continue to apply. The interest rate for advances under the Credit Facility at December 31, 2009, was at LIBOR plus 2.0% and subject to change based upon the fixed charge coverage ratio.

The Company had no long term debt outstanding at December 31, 2009 or September 30, 2009. At December 31, 2009, the Company had $975 of letters of credit outstanding.

As of December 31, 2009, the Company had $5.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, and $59.2 million in marketable securities. The marketable securities are invested through a professional investment advisor. The securities may be liquidated at any time into cash and cash equivalents.

The Company’s working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities) was equal to $88.4 million as of December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009. Increases in accounts receivable of $966 were offset by reductions in inventories of $1.1 million as the Company received orders for several asphalt plants during the quarter ended December 31, 2009 and began manufacturing for delivery during the first quarter of calendar 2010. Prepaid expenses decreased $924 from the realization of $950 of tax receivables included in prepaid expenses at September 30, 2009. Customer deposits increased $2.7 million related to the asphalt plant orders.

Cash provided by operations during the quarter ended December 31, 2009 was $2.1 million which was primarily driven by reduced inventories, increased customer deposits and realization of the tax receivable. Cash provided by investing activities during the quarter ended December 31, 2009 was $163 related to income from Investees. There were no cash disbursements or receipts related to financing activities during the quarter ended December 31, 2009.

The Company’s operations are concentrated in the asphalt-related business and are subject to a seasonal slow-down during the third and fourth quarters of the calendar year. This slow-down often results in lower reported sales and earnings and/or losses during the first and fourth quarters of each fiscal year ended September 30.

This Report on Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which represent the Company’s expectations and beliefs, including, but not limited to, statements concerning gross margins, sales of the Company’s products and future financing plans. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond the Company’s control. Actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of important factors, including the financial condition of the Company’s customers, changes in the economic and competitive environments and demand for the Company’s products.

For information concerning these factors and related matters, see the following sections of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2009: (a) “Risk Factors” in Part I “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II. However, other factors besides those referenced could adversely affect the Company’s results, and you should not consider any such list of factors to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties. Any forward-looking statements made by the

Company herein speak as of the date of this Report. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

The Company believes the following discussion addresses its most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of the financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Accounting policies, in addition to the critical accounting policies referenced below, are presented in Note 1 to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2009, “Accounting Policies.”

In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company uses certain estimates and assumptions that may affect reported amounts and disclosures. Estimates and assumptions are used, among other places, when accounting for certain revenue (e.g. contract accounting), expense, and asset and liability valuations. The Company believes that the estimates and assumptions made in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements are reasonable, but are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate and unanticipated events may occur. The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ from estimated results.

Revenues from contracts for the design and manufacture of certain custom equipment are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method. The percentage-of-completion method of accounting for long term contracts recognizes revenue in proportion to actual labor costs incurred as compared with total estimated labor costs expected to be incurred during the entire contract. Revenues from all other sales are recorded as the products are shipped or service is performed.

All selling, general and administrative expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Provision is made for any anticipated contract losses in the period that the loss becomes evident.

The estimated costs of product warranties are charged to production costs as revenue is recognized.

The Company marks to market all trading securities and records any unrealized gains or losses as income or loss in the current period.

As of December 31, 2009 the Company owned a 45% interest in Carbontronics LLC and a 25% interest in Carbontronics Fuels LLC and Carbontronics II LLC. These interests were obtained as part of contracts to build four synthetic fuel production plants during 1998. The Company has no basis in these equity investments or requirement to provide future funding. Any income arising from these investments was dependent upon tax credits (adjusted for operating losses at the fuel plants) being generated as a result of synthetic fuel production, which were recorded as received. The synthetic fuel tax credit legislation expired at the end of calendar year 2007.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the Consolidated Financial Statements. To maintain comparability among the periods presented, the Company has revised the presentation of certain prior period amounts reported within the Consolidated Financial Statements. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net income (loss).

For the quarter ended December 31, 2009, the Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through February 16, 2010, the date of financial statement issuance.

The Company operates manufacturing facilities and sales offices principally located in the United States and, until June 2009, the United Kingdom. The Company is subject to business risks inherent in non-U.S. activities, including political and economic uncertainty, import and export limitations, and market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Periodically, the Company will use derivative financial instruments consisting primarily of interest rate hedge agreements to manage exposures to interest rate changes. The Company’s objective in managing its exposure to changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt is to limit their impact on earnings and cash flow and reduce its overall borrowing costs.

At December 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009 the Company had no debt outstanding. Under the Credit Agreement, substantially all of the Company’s borrowings will bear interest at variable rates based upon the prime rate or LIBOR.

The Company’s marketable securities are invested in stocks and municipal bonds through a professional investment advisor. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of securities, it is possible that changes in these risk factors could have an adverse material impact on the Company’s results of operations or equity.

The Company’s sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk excludes accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities because of the short-term maturity of such instruments. The analysis does not consider the effect on other variables such as changes in sales volumes or management’s actions with respect to levels of capital expenditures, future acquisitions or planned divestures, all of which could be significantly influenced by changes in interest rates.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Because of inherent limitations, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of such disclosure controls and procedures are met and no evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company has been detected.

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has reviewed the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended December 31, 2009 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this Report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
