CLEVELAND, April 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Crawford United Corporation (OTC: CRAWA), a growth-oriented holding company serving diverse markets, today reported results for the three-month and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2021.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2021, sales were $27.3 million compared with $19.9 million in the same period last year, an increase of 37%.  In this quarter, the Company recorded operating income of $0.7 million compared with operating income of $1.7 million in the same period last year.  Net income was $0.1 million, or $0.02 per fully diluted share, compared to $2.1 million, or $0.63 per fully diluted share in the fourth quarter of the prior year.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, sales were $104.2 million compared with $85.1 million in the same period last year, an increase of 22%.  In this twelve-month period, the Company recorded operating income of $7.0 million compared with operating income of $7.5 million last year. Net income was $5.7 million, or $1.66 per fully diluted share, compared with net income of $5.8 million, or $1.76 per fully diluted share last year.  

For the quarter and the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, the increases in sales were primarily due to the acquisitions during 2021 of Komtek Forge, Global-Tek Manufacturing and Emergency Hydraulics, as well as organic growth and a recovery in customer demand as we emerge from the global pandemic. Net income for the quarter was negatively impacted by a $1.0 million charge related to year-end audit adjustments to certain accrued expenses, in particular inventory and state income tax expenses.

Brian Powers, Chairman and CEO, stated, “Although our margins have been impacted by labor shortages and supply chain pressures, we are pleased with the ongoing success of our business model. Crawford United is continuing to explore opportunities for increased revenue and improved profitability, always with an eye towards additional acquisitions.”
