Fourth Quarter 2016 Highlights*
Full-Year 2016 Highlights*
* All changes are versus the comparable prior-year period.
CECO's Interim Chief Executive Officer Dennis Sadlowski commented, "I am very excited to be leading CECO during this transformative stage of its history. The entire CECO team is keenly focused on customers, innovation and growth. We plan to capitalize on CECO's deep application knowledge base, asset-light business model and experienced management team. By combining a renewed outside-in focus with customers, along with a strategic refresh, I expect that CECO will be able to generate organic growth and shareholder value. I am also encouraged by CECO's ongoing operational excellence, which resulted in record gross profit and gross margin. We also continued our focus on reducing debt with an additional $10.1 million debt repayment in the fourth quarter of 2016 resulting in a total debt repayment in 2016 of $49.7 million."
Mr. Sadlowski continued, "While we anticipate a challenging macroeconomic environment in 2017, I am confident that CECO's diversity of technologies, end markets and multiple geographies provide the foundation for a strong future. CECO's business is driven in large part by global GDP and not regulatory requirements. As such, leveraging our large installed base, creating value-added innovations and investing in our world-class original equipment in order to maintain a leading-edge solution for our customers, should facilitate our growth in the future. The direction and core of our business is fundamentally sound, and we have a committed, talented management team in place to deliver long-term value to our shareholders. Sharpening our strategy to focus on customers and end markets, will enable the Company to effectively pivot forward into a new phase of growth."
