"I am very pleased with the results from the second quarter and the ongoing improvement in financial performance that the Company has achieved," commented CECO's Chief Executive Officer, Jeff Lang.  "Our slightly lower revenues in the quarter are the result of our intentional pruning of lower margin customer segments from our backlog, primarily in our Contracting/Services Group.  Nevertheless, we expect that revenues will increase as our domestic and global sales initiatives take effect."  

Mr. Lang continued, "We continue to realize the positive results from global growth, streamlining and gross margin enhancement that we began implementing last year.  Additionally, nearly 32% of our 2011 bookings were from international customers which provides further proof that our global expansion initiatives continue to be successful."
