Orders in the third quarter of 2002 totaled $87.8 million, compared with $77.2 million in the second quarter of 2002 and $68.0 million in the third quarter of 2001. Effective January January: see month. 1, 2002, the Company adopted the non-amortization provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS SFAS Statement of Financial Accounting Standards SFAS Special Forces Assessment and Selection SFAS Student Financial Aid Services SFAS Sport Fishing Association of Singapore SFAS Safety Features Actuation System SFAS Statewide Fixed Assets System ") No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Intangible Asset An asset that is not physical in nature. Notes: Examples are things like copyrights, patents, intellectual property, and goodwill. These are the opposite of tangible assets. ." If such provisions had been in effect for 2001, the Company would have had net income in the third quarter of 2001 of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per diluted share. In the third quarter of 2002, the Company recorded employee separation and plant closure costs of $2.2 million and non-cash write-offs of inventory included in cost of sales of $0.6 million for the previously announced consolidations of certain manufacturing facilities. These charges compare with $0.2 million of employee separation and plant closure costs and a $0.5 million gain on the sale of a product line recorded in the third quarter of 2001. The net effect of these items was an increase in net loss of $2.8 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2002 and a decrease in net loss of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2001. Sales for the first nine months of 2002 were $221.1 million, down 13 percent from $254.4 million for the corresponding period in 2001. For the first nine months of 2002, the net loss was $3.8 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $1.2 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, for the first nine months of 2001. If the non-amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142 had been in effect for 2001, the Company would have had net income in the first nine months of 2001 of $2.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share.

Actual cash flow from operations Cash flow from operations A firm's net cash inflow resulting directly from its regular operations (disregarding extraordinary items such as the sale of fixed assets or transaction costs associated with issuing securities), calculated as the sum of net income plus noncash expenses in the third quarter of 2002 was $8.5 million compared with $7.0 million in the third quarter of 2001 and $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2002.

[Arthurian Legend: Parrinder, 28] See : Heroism S.

This increase occurred despite a sales decline of six percent and a gross profit decline of seven percent."

Mr. Holmes continued, "Our Distribution and Storage ("D&S") segment was below plan in orders and sales for the third quarter of 2002. Macro-economic indicators suggest that portions of the economy are currently experiencing a reduction in economic growth.

Gross profit and gross margin improved in the third quarter of 2002, but on a lower sales volume than anticipated."

Order intake for this segment was down, primarily due to timing delays on LNG fueling opportunities." Commenting further, Mr. Holmes stated, "During the third quarter of 2002, we continued our plans to restructure our organization and consolidate manufacturing facilities to remove excess capacity and lower our fixed overhead costs overhead costs see fixed costs. . A total of $2.8 million of restructuring charges were included in employee separation and plant closure costs and cost of sales related to these initiatives.

When approved, these closures will result in further restructuring expenses, but the anticipated operating savings are expected to recoup recoup To sell an asset at a price sufficient to recover the original outlay or to offset a previous loss. the expenses in approximately one year." Continuing, Mr. Holmes, said, "Looking ahead to the fourth quarter of 2002, I anticipate a slight increase in sales and gross profit from the third-quarter 2002 levels.

In the Bible and in theology the covenant is the agreement or engagement of God with man as revealed in the compliance in the fourth quarter of 2002 a challenge." "We are actively pursuing several financial restructuring initiatives in order to improve the Company's financial condition and reduce its leverage. This includes a potential substantial equity investment in the Company, and we are in advanced negotiations with one investor group toward that end. We are also considering alternatives with our senior lenders regarding a restructuring of the Company's outstanding senior debt.

Mr. Holmes concluded, "I am encouraged by the PS&E segment's third-quarter 2002 order intake, which was exceptionally strong in the hydrocarbon hydrocarbon (hī'drōkär`bən), any organic compound composed solely of the elements hydrogen and carbon. The hydrocarbons differ both in the total number of carbon and hydrogen atoms in their molecules and in the proportion of hydrogen processing market, and the related improved outlook for this business going forward into 2003.

D&S segment sales decreased 19.3 percent from the third quarter of 2001, with third-quarter 2002 sales of $26.4 million.

PS&E segment sales increased 24.8 percent to $14.6 million in the third quarter of 2002 from sales of $11.7 million in the third quarter of 2001. The improved hydrocarbon processing market for heat exchangers and cold boxes contributed to this increase. Gross profit for the third quarter of 2002 was $19.2 million versus $21.2 million for the third quarter of 2001, a decrease of $2.0 million, or 9.4 percent. Gross margin for the third quarter of 2002 was 25.8 percent versus 26.3 percent for the third quarter of 2001.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense was $13.6 million for the third quarter of 2002 compared with $13.2 million in the third quarter of 2001. As percentage of sales, SG&A expense was 18.3 percent for the third quarter of 2002 versus 16.4 percent for the third quarter of 2001.

D&S orders for the third quarter of 2002 totaled $23.2 million, compared with $25.3 million for the second quarter of 2002. The D&S segment experienced a drop off in orders for packaged gas equipment and engineered tanks, compared with the second quarter of 2002, largely the result of the continued slow global industrial gas market. PS&E orders for the third quarter of 2002 totaled $29.6 million, compared with $14.5 million in the second quarter of 2002. Order activity was very strong in the hydrocarbon processing market, with the inclusion of significant orders from Bechtel for heat exchangers and cold boxes to equip a large LNG facility. PS&E backlog at September 30, 2002, was $41.8 million, up from $28.1 million at June 30, 2002.
