TONAWANDA, N.Y., March 28,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Taylor Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ
SmallCap: "TAYD") announced today that it had 3rd
quarter sales of $12,254,093, up 24%
from last year's 3rd quarter sales of $9,891,272 while sales for the 1st
nine months were $32,517,596, up 10%
from last year's 1st nine-month sales of $29,479,337.
Net earnings for the 3rd quarter were $2,696,921, up significantly from last year's

year's net earnings for the 1st nine months of
$4,220,766.
"Our FY24 3rd quarter and 1st nine-month sales
finished significantly better than last year's levels respectively
with the benefit of our market diversity demonstrated by increased
sales to our Aerospace/Defense product group customers more than
offsetting a decrease in sales to our Structural product group
customers," stated Tim Sopko,
CEO. He continued, "Additionally, these sales levels
establish new company highs for sales in a quarter as well as the
1st nine months of a fiscal year." He further
commented, "Similarly, net earnings for the 3rd quarter
and 1st nine months are also significantly improved over
last year's levels both in total dollars as well as a percentage of
sales; 63% better for the quarter and 55% better for the
1st nine months, while also establishing new company
highs for net earnings in a quarter as well as the 1st
nine months of a fiscal year." He further commented, "We
continue to reap the benefits of our team's disciplined adherence
to our growth strategies as well as their excellent work on
continuous improvements implemented over the past several years
across all functions in our business." He concluded, "As we
enter the 4th and final quarter of our FY24, we will
continue to focus on our growth strategies supported by our
continued investments in our team, technologies (R&D) and
facilities which we expect will continue to support our profitable
growth going forward."
The company's firm order backlog was $30,200,000 at the end of this February as
compared to $27,800,000 at the end of
February last year.
