Summary of results
"There are two observations I would like to highlight. First, we have returned to positive EBITDA after years of grinding it out through the recession and transforming our business in response to market threats and opportunities. Secondly, we have more than doubled our backlog year over year and the mix of the backlog is shifting to our higher value added, proprietary engineered products," said Guy Nelson Chief Executive Officer of Empires Industries Ltd. "Furthermore, I expect this trend of increasing bottom line performance and strengthening backlog to continue because the markets we are targeting have a robust outlook of growth ahead. The company is now focusing on strengthening its balance sheet to perform its increasingly international backlog of work."
