Empire Industries Reports 2016 Results and Conference Call Information
2016 transformative developments leave Empire focused on high-growth attractions segment

(firmenpresse) - WINNIPEG, MANITOBA -- (Marketwired) -- 04/26/17 -- Empire Industries Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: EIL) today reported its audited consolidated financial results for the year ended December 31, 2016. The audited consolidated financial statements and MD&A have been filed on SEDAR and can be viewed at or at .
"2016 was a transformative year for Empire," said Guy Nelson, CEO of Empire Industries. "The spin-out of our Manufactured Products segment (Tornado Global Hydrovacs) into a stand-alone publicly traded company has sharply increased Empire's focus on the Media-based Attractions segment. The fact that we were able to accomplish this with a gain of $3.3 million net of tax meant the transaction had immediate financial value, as well as immediate strategic value. We sharpened our focus further in early 2017, through the re-deployment of our Steel Fabrication segment assets into the Media-based Attractions segment and subsequently have been rightsizing our steel fabrication capacity to match our internal requirements. We are focused on the growth in this marketplace and on leveraging our unique, globally competitive advantages and unique selling proposition."
"We continue to see strong growth in demand as evidenced by the 10 attractions we opened in 2016, and by our record pipeline of proposals outstanding. We also continue to develop promising projects that leverage our Orlando-based Unlimited Attractions™ division's unique skill set in turning ride systems into attractions and applying this to some of our proprietary ride systems. We expect to bring some of these exciting prospects to fruition starting in 2017."
