Analyst Update: Financial Results, Acquisitions, and Contract Awards

Reviewed by: Rohit Tuli, CFA(R)

Volatility gripped the U.S. market on Tuesday as the Dow Jones Industrial Average, which vaulted over 282 points during the session, erased all the gains and slipped into negative territory, led by a decline in materials and energy shares. The U.S. stocks fluctuated between gains and losses during the session, mirroring the movement in oil prices which tumbled to near six-year lows before recovering. The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended the session 0.15% lower at 17,613.68, the S&P 500 lost 0.26% to close at 2,023.03, and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 0.07% to 4,661.50. Meanwhile, European shares rose for the second consecutive session on Tuesday, helped by rally in retail stocks and data showing that U.K. inflation fell to the lowest level in 15 years. Most of the Asian markets also ended lower on Tuesday as continued drop in the prices of oil turned investors cautious towards risky assets.

Global Power Equipment Group Inc. (Global Power) reported an improvement of 31.9% YoY in its third quarter 2014 top line, led by robust performance across all three business segments; Company on track to deliver 2014 as planned.

Graco Inc. (Graco) to acquire Pennsylvania-based High Pressure Equipment (HiP) company and Utah-based White Knight Fluid Handling business. The Company also closed two other acquisitions: Canada-based GeoBlaster Equipment Sales & Services Inc. and Brazil-based Multimaq-Pistolas e Equipamentos Para Pintura Ltda (Multimaq) in December last year.

Oregon-based Greenbrier Companies Inc. (Greenbrier) won new orders in Q1 FY 2015 to deliver 14,100 railcar units valued at $1.24 billion.

Griffon Corporation's (Griffon) wholly-owned subsidiary Telephonics Corporation won a contract from the U.S. Foreign Military Sales Office, acting as procuring agent for the Swedish government.
