Ampco-Pittsburgh Expects Strong Sequential Earnings Improvement In Q2 2024 Compared To Q1 2024
Remarking on this outlook, Brett McBrayer, Ampco-Pittsburgh's Chief Executive Officer, said, "As we expected, Q2 2024 earnings should improve sequentially versus Q1 2024 with the impact of the Q1 foundry fire in our Sweden plant largely behind us, along with sequential improvement in Air & Liquid Processing segment margins."
"We experienced a full-quarter benefit of the new machinery in our U.S. forged operation in Q2. Although we are still experiencing excess capacity in our European cast roll business relative to demand, this is consistent with our experience the last few quarters."
