The company earned 24 cents per share during the second quarter, 41% higher than the consensus estimate of 17 cents. ENGlobal's profit margin is now 8.5%, up from 7.7% on year ago, easily surpassing the target of 8%.
Recovering from Hurricane Ike
On Sep 22 ENGlobal announced that 85% of its 900 employees affected by Ike were back to work. The hurricane forced closures to 8 facilities represent about one third of the company's locations. While major damage was avoided, commercial power has been restored to 7 locations and the 8th is running on generators.
