million, or $0.26 per diluted share, a year ago.
“We are beginning to see positive signs for commercial
construction in several geographic regions,” said Scott A. Schuff,
President and CEO. “This modest improvement, in addition to
continued demand for our design-build/design-assist capabilities,
allowed us to add quality projects to our backlog, resulting in
better margin performance this quarter.
“We are also very pleased with the start-up of Schuff Hopsa
Engineering, our Panamanian joint venture. Although they only
formally began operations this quarter, they are already
experiencing solid margin performance and have quality backlog well
into 2012,” added Schuff. “We remain optimistic about their revenue
generating opportunities within Central and South America.
“While our third quarter results show promise, we remain
cautiously optimistic towards sustained economic recovery in the
U.S. markets going into next year. We remain committed to our
ongoing cost control efforts and we believe our diverse backlog of
quality projects will keep us well-positioned for the recovery in
commercial construction activity when it occurs,” Schuff
concluded.
