The Company will broadcast its third quarter 2022 earnings conference call on Wednesday, November 9, 2022 at 7:00 a.m. PT.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \nManagement Commentary\n\"Our third quarter Precast Infrastructure and Engineered Systems business remained strong, producing $39.3 million in revenue and a 28% gross margin despite both revenue and gross margins being a little subdued by increased downtime associated with the planned system integration at our ParkUSA facilities. The order book of $74 million, while slightly off the record level from the second quarter, is very high by historical standards as we enter the seasonally slow time of the year. Regardless of some of the current economic headwinds, we expect the Precast business to remain fairly strong for the near term,\" said Scott Montross, President and Chief Executive Officer of Northwest Pipe Company.\nMr. Montross continued, \"In the third quarter our Engineered Steel Pressure Pipe business generated $83.7 million in revenue and gross margin of 17%. We have continued to experience strong bidding levels and ended the third quarter with a record backlog including confirmed orders of $347 million.
