Gencor Releases First Quarter Fiscal 2003 Results

February 14, 2003 - Gencor Industries, Inc., Orlando-based manufacturer of heavy machinery and equipment, announced Net Income for the quarter ended December 31, 2002, of $1,571,000 or $.18 per diluted share on revenues of $13.3 million. This compares favorably to a Net Loss of ($1.1) million or ($.13) per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2001, on revenues of $10.9 million.

Mr. E.J. Elliott, Gencor’s Chairman, stated, "Our domestic sales have increased significantly from the slow start in the prior year. Our fiscal first quarter is typically slow and we are encouraged by the Company’s prospects. Also income from our investees increased from $465,000 in fiscal 2002 to $4.2 million in fiscal 2003. Overall we believe the Company is well-positioned in its core markets and even though purchase deferrals by our industry have significantly reduced the size of our market (due largely to the unfavorable economic climate), it appears that our slice of the pie has become larger with significant increase in bookings after the holidays.

Gencor Industries is a diversified heavy machinery manufacturer for the production of highway construction materials, synthetic fuels and environmental control machinery and equipment used in a variety of applications.
