Dr. Louis F. Centofanti, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our record-setting results in the second quarter and first half are attributable to our Nuclear Segment. Within Nuclear, we saw increases in the shipments of mixed waste, a very favorable product mix, and the improvements in treatment processes and operational efficiencies. Overall, Nuclear has continued its steady growth with a great second quarter." Dr. Centofanti continued, "Performance in the Industrial Segment did not meet expectations. Despite encouraging and substantial increases in revenue, the Segment's gross profit and net income results were well below established goals. Efforts to evaluate and increase division performance are ongoing."
