Fiscal Year 2008 refers to the 12 month period beginning March 1, 2007 and ending on February 29, 2008.

David H. Dingus, president and chief executive officer of the company stated, “Based upon the evaluation of information currently available to management, we are pleased to project what we believe will be another excellent year for AZZ in Fiscal 2008, with record setting revenues. Our earnings are estimated to be within the range of $2.70 and $2.80 per diluted share, and revenues are estimated to be within the range of $275 to $285 million. Our estimates assume that we will see a continuation of strong domestic markets, penetration of selected international markets and reduced volatility in the cost of zinc and other key commodities. Margins for galvanizing services are anticipated to return to the historical 18 to 22 percent range, and the electrical and industrial products segment is expected to operate with margins in the 11 to 13 percent range in FY 2008.”

Mr. Dingus continued, “Our next, regularly scheduled quarterly conference call is in April, 2007, where we will be reporting the operating results for the fourth quarter and 2007 fiscal year. We are encouraged with the growth and expansion of the company over the past few years and are continuing our efforts to seek out additional growth and expansion opportunities.”
