Net Earnings Up for the Year
Net earnings for the year came in at $14.4 million up from $11.7 million in the previous year resulting from the increase in sales. Earning per share came in at $0.57 compared to $0.47 in the prior year.
Looking Forward
The 2009 sales levels represent a record year for the company, despite the current economic crisis. Sales of short-line equipment continue to do well, however, a decline in overseas tractor sales is anticipated and as a result, sales are expected to be lower in 2010.
