Omega Flex, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2024 Earnings

EXTON, Pa., Oct. 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dean W. Rivest, CEO, announced that net sales of Omega Flex, Inc. (the “Company”) for the first nine months of 2024 and 2023 were $74,716,000 and $83,318,000, respectively, decreasing $8,602,000 or 10.3%. Net Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were 9.5% lower than for the third quarter of 2023. The decrease in net sales was mainly due to lower sales unit volumes as the overall market continued to be suppressed because of, among other factors, a decline in housing starts.

The Company’s net income for the first nine months of 2024 was $13,332,000, compared to $15,874,000 for the first nine months of 2023, decreasing $2,542,000 or 16.0%. Net income for the third quarter of 2024 was 17.2% below the same period in 2023. The decrease in net income is mainly due to the decrease in net sales and a related decrease in production, which resulted in lower absorption of factory labor and overhead costs. Higher overhead expenses, mainly due to newly leased facilities, also contributed to the decrease in net income, and lower raw material costs were among the factors mitigating the decrease.
