BMHC's sales of construction services and manufactured building components for the second quarter increased 35.3% to $152.6 million compared to $112.8 million in the same period a year ago. Sales of construction services and manufactured building components were 50.8% of total sales for the quarter compared to 42.0% in the second quarter last year.

Gross margin increased to 28.4% from 27.5% in the second quarter of 2001. This increase is primarily due to the Company's continued focus on sales of construction services and manufactured building components, such as framing, roof and floor trusses, wall panels, pre-hung doors and millwork. Selling, general and administrative expenses were 23.7% of net sales compared with 23.3% in the same period last year, which is due mainly to higher costs associated with the increase in sales of services and manufactured components.

"In light of overall economic conditions, we are pleased with our results for the quarter, which were in line with our expectations," said Robert Robert, Henry Martyn 1837-1923.
