NORTH TONAWANDA, N.Y.,
Sept. 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Taylor
Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ SmallCap: "TAYD") announced today that it had
1st quarter sales of $7,307,737, up from last year's 1st
quarter sales of $5,759,457.
Net earnings for the 1st quarter were $181,877, up slightly from last year's

"FY22 Q1 sales are up significantly compared to last year's Q1
sales although net profit finished only slightly improved despite
the higher volume", stated Tim
Sopko, CEO. He continued, "Profit was adversely
impacted predominantly by greater than expected COVID-19 driven
material and labor cost increases exacerbated by lower margin
projects with customers in Asia
that we are still working through in our firm order backlog."
He further commented, "The markets and customers we serve continue
to show signs of recovery from the negative impacts of the pandemic
as our favorable firm order backlog level at the end of FY22 Q1
indicates." He concluded, "This coupled with the continuing
high level of investment in our people, technologies (R&D) and
operational capabilities positions us well to take advantage of the
opportunities in our chosen markets as the global economies
continue to recover from the negative impacts of the pandemic."
The company's firm order backlog was $19,400,000 at the end of August 2021 as compared to $10,300,000 at the end of August 2020.
