Allen Bender, CEO of the company, noted that revenues and profits had continued at the expected level for the third quarter and were consistent with budgeted goals. Based upon current backlog he said that the company should meet its revenue and profit objectives for the year.
Mr. Bender noted a small disruption in production during September as a result of the terrorist attack on the Pentagon. As noted in the company's previous press release, the company supported rescue and recovery operations with several shelters and with on site maintenance and training. Some orders scheduled for delivery in September were postponed, and were delivered in October.
Mr. Bender noted that interest in the company's shelter products remains high, and that there has been increased interest in its decontamination products since the September 11 atrocities. Several demonstrations have been made, and numerous product inquiries have been received. The company is preparing for a higher order flow in the coming year.
TVI is a leading manufacturer of quick erect tents and signage, casualty decontamination systems, and thermal targets in its 25th year of operations. Its stock trades on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol TVIN. More information is available at the company's website at www.tvicorp.com.
