Current report
Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue, not including royalties, increased to 80% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 74% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue, not including royalties, increased to 82% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 73% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase is primarily due to the decrease in revenue from the special barrier projects that were performed in the first and second quarters of 2025, and did not recur in the first and second quarters of 2026, which have a higher margin and lower cost of sales when compared to product margin and product cost of sales.
Current report
Operating income was $1,985 for the three month period ended June 30, 2026, as compared to an operating income of $5,518 for the three month period ended June 30, 2025. Operating income was $3,713 for the six month period ended June 30, 2026, as compared to $9,905 for the six month period ended June 30, 2025.

Current report
Easi-Set® and Easi-Span Building Sales - Building and restroom sales were lower in the three month period and higher in the six month period ended June 30, 2026, compared to the same periods in 2025. The three month decrease is due to production timing and the six month increase is due to increased building sales at all manufacturing plants. Building and restroom sales are expected to continue to trend similarly throughout the remainder of 2026 compared to the first half of 2026.
Current report
Barrier Rentals – Barrier rentals decreased significantly for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same periods in 2025. This decrease is mainly attributed to two special barrier projects, one in each of the first and second quarters of 2025, but no such special barrier projects in the first half of 2026. Barrier rental revenue, excluding revenue from special barrier projects, is expected to trend higher throughout 2026 as compared to barrier rental revenue, excluding revenue from special barrier projects, in the first half of 2026, although no assurance can be given.
Current report
Cost of Sales - Total cost of sales as a percent of revenue, excluding royalties, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was 80%, as compared to 74% for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Total cost of sales as a percent of revenue, excluding royalties, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was 82%, as compared to 73% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue, not including royalties, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, is due primarily to the revenue from the large special barrier projects that were performed in the first and second quarters of 2025, which have a higher margin and lower cost of sales as a percent of revenue when compared to product margins and product cost of sales as a percent of revenue, that did not recur in the first and second quarters of 2026. The Company expects cost of sales to improve based on its plans of increasing backlog of higher margin projects, increasing utilization and labor productivity inputs at its Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina plants, although no assurances can be given.
Current report
General and Administrative Expenses - For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company's general and administrative expenses increased to $2,483 from $1,514 during the same period in 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company's general and administrative expenses increased to $4,236 from $3,098 during the same period in 2025. General and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenue was 11% and 6% for the three month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. General and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenue was 9% and 6% for the six month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Such expenses increased due to an increase in filling administrative and managerial staffing roles in 2026 that were vacant in 2025.
Current report
Operating Income - The Company had operating income for the three month period ended June 30, 2026 of $1,985 compared to $5,518 for the same period in 2025. The Company had operating income for the six month period ended June 30, 2026 of $3,713 compared to $9,905 for the same period in 2025. The decrease is mainly due to special barrier projects that occurred in the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2025 that did not recur in the same periods of 2026.
Current report
The Company's outstanding notes payable are financed at fixed rates of interest. This leaves the Company protected from fluctuating interest rates. Increases in such rates will only affect the interest paid by the Company if new debt is obtained, or the available line of credit is drawn upon, with a variable interest rate.
Current report
On June 30, 2026, the Company had cash totaling $10,663 compared to cash totaling $11,884 on December 31, 2025. The decrease in cash is primarily the result of investing in inventory growth, payment of estimated federal and state income taxes and investing activities through capital spending as described in further detail below.
Current report
Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with approximately $2.4 million for the same period in 2025. Cash provided by operating activities during the 2026 period reflected net income of approximately $2.7 million, adjusted for non-cash items and changes in working capital. Working capital changes included a decrease in billed accounts receivable of approximately $4.1 million, partially offset by increases in inventory of approximately $1.6 million and income tax receivable of approximately $1.2 million, as well as decreases in accrued income taxes and customer deposits of approximately $1.6 million each.
Current report
Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with approximately $2.5 million for the same period in 2025. Investing cash flows in both periods primarily consisted of purchases of property and equipment.
Current report
Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $0.3 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, consisting of repayments of long-term borrowings.
Current report
The Company’s accounts receivable balances, net of allowance, at June 30, 2026 was $22,785, compared to $27,228 at December 31, 2025. This decrease is due primarily to increased collections efforts focused on past due accounts in the second quarter of 2026.
Current report
The Company’s cash flow from operations is affected by production schedules set by contractors, which generally provide for payment 30 to 90 days after the products are produced, and with some architectural contracts, retainage may be held until the entire project is completed. This payment schedule may result in liquidity challenges for the Company because it must bear a portion of the cost of production before it receives payment from its customers. The Company’s average days sales outstanding, excluding the effect of unbilled revenue, was 105 days for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 96 days for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Previous report
Overall, the Company’s financial performance for the first quarter of 2026 decreased compared to the first quarter of 2025. The Company reported net income of $1,339 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to net income of $3,327 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Total revenue decreased by $1,126 to $21,572 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $22,698 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to lower barrier rental revenue resulting from the absence of a large special barrier project that positively impacted the first quarter of 2025. This decrease was partially offset by increases in product sales and shipping and installation revenue.
Previous report
Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue, excluding royalties, increased to 83% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 72% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to the significant reduction in special project barrier rental revenue during the quarter. Special barrier rental projects generally carry higher margins and lower cost of sales percentages compared to product sales.
Previous report
Operating income was $1,728 for the three month period ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $4,387 for the three month period ended March 31, 2025. Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2026 were $2,575 compared to $2,588 for the first quarter of 2025. The slight decrease was primarily attributable to lower selling expenses partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses.
Previous report
Easi-Set® and Easi-Span Building Sales – Building sales increased significantly for the three month period ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2025 due to increased customer demand at multiple manufacturing facilities. The Company expects building sales activity to continue at elevated levels during 2026, although no assurance can be given.
Previous report
Barrier Rentals – Barrier rental revenue decreased significantly for the three month period ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to the absence of a large special barrier project that positively impacted the first quarter of 2025. Excluding special projects, the Company expects standard barrier rental activity to continue to trend positively throughout 2026, although no assurance can be provided. The Company also expects, to a lesser degree, special barrier projects to continue in 2026. In view of the anticipated lack of a special barrier project in the second quarter of 2026 as compared to one such project in the second quarter of 2025, the Company expects a significant decrease in such revenues for the 2026 second quarterly period.
Previous report
Cost of Sales - Total cost of sales as a percentage of revenue, excluding royalties, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was 83%, as compared to 72% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to the reduction in high-margin special barrier project revenue during the first quarter of 2026 as compared to the first quarter of 2025 as well as the relative increase in lower-margin product sales activity.
Previous report
General and Administrative Expenses - For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company’s general and administrative expenses increased by $169 to $1,753 from $1,584 during the three month period ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to increased personnel-related costs, professional fees, and costs associated with internal control and financial reporting remediation activities. General and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenue was 8% and 7% for the three month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Previous report
Operating Income - The Company had operating income for the three month period ended March 31, 2026 of $1,728 compared to $4,387 for the three month period ended March 31, 2025. The 61% decrease was primarily attributable to lower revenues from the absence of a significant special barrier project, which occurred the first quarter of 2025 and did not occur in the first quarter of 2026, and the resulting increase in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue.
Previous report
The Company’s outstanding notes payable are financed at fixed rates of interest. Accordingly, the Company’s exposure to fluctuating interest rates is limited primarily to any future borrowings under the variable rate line of credit or additional future indebtedness.
Previous report
On March 31, 2026, the Company had cash totaling $13,217 compared to cash totaling $11,884 on December 31, 2025. The increase in cash was primarily the result of cash provided by operating activities totaling approximately $3.1 million during the quarter. Operating cash flow benefited from profitability, increased accounts payable balances, and deferred revenue activity, partially offset by increases in accounts receivable and inventory balances.
Previous report
The Company’s accounts receivable balances, net of allowance, at March 31, 2026 were $28,052 compared to $27,228 at December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to timing of project billings, increased product sales activity, and growth in unbilled receivables associated with over-time revenue recognition.
Previous report
The Company’s cash flow from operations is affected by production schedules established by contractors, which generally provide for payment 30 to 90 days after products are produced. Certain architectural and infrastructure projects may also include retainage provisions that delay collection until project completion. These factors can create liquidity demands because the Company must fund a portion of production costs before receiving payment from customers.
Previous report
If actual operating results, production schedules, sales levels, or collections on customer receivables are materially inconsistent with management’s expectations, the Company could encounter cash flow or liquidity challenges in future periods. In addition, significant deterioration in operating performance could impact the Company’s ability to comply with financial covenants under existing lending agreements.
