Rodney Smith, Chairman and CEO stated, “The third quarter resulted in one of our best quarters in the history of the Company. We were able to obtain several high profile projects from some of our best customers, containing excellent profit margins, which resulted in a strong quarter for the Company. All of our operating companies created strong profits while at the same time lowering their overall manufacturing costs. This resulted in a lower cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue as shown in our current Form 10-Q filed today.

“We expect all of our companies, Smith-Midland VA, Smith-Carolina, NC, Smith-Columbia, SC, Concrete Safety Systems and Easi-Set Worldwide to continue in a profitable manner. The Smith-Columbia precast plant has two significant barrier contracts and one moderate lagging panel contract. We have bid on several soundwall projects and management believes we have a fair chance of obtaining these contracts. We believe that 2016 will be an outstanding year for Smith-Midland“.

Smith-Midland develops, manufactures, licenses, rents, and sells a broad array of precast concrete products for use primarily in the construction, transportation and utilities industries.
