2Q24 Results. The improved top and bottom lines reflect Graham’s successful operating strategy, in our view. The first quarter can be characterized by solid growth, consistent improvement, and strengthened profitability. We also would note the expansion of Graham’s defense business has reduced the Company’s economic sensitivity.
New Orders. Graham’s Barber-Nichols segment reported the receipt of three new awards, totaling in excess of $65 million. An extension of work for the MK48 Mod 7 Heavyweight torpedo program, received in the first quarter; a new program for the Columbia-class submarine; and a contract to provide cryogenic recirculation pumps for space vehicles. We believe these awards demonstrate the Company’s capabilities to successfully compete in its key markets.
