(Nasdaq: TRNS) (“Transcat” or the “Company”), a leading provider of accredited calibration, repair, inspection and laboratory instrument services and value-added distributor of professional grade handheld test, measurement and control instrumentation, today reported financial results for its second quarter ended September 24, 2022 (the “second quarter”) of fiscal year 2023, which ends March 25, 2023 (“fiscal 2023”).

Demand remained strong as our backlog increased 18% from prior year to a record $9.1 million. In total, ...
