For the first nine months, sales were $2.89 billion, down 8.7 percent from the first nine months of 2009. Profit declined 13.1 percent to $275.8 million.

\”Our sales were impacted this quarter by customers delaying receipt of finished product, timing of long lead time backlog conversion, as well as isolated production constraints in our industrial business,\” said Dick Guiltinan, senior vice president, finance, and chief accounting officer. \”Additionally, most of the more favorable pricing on long lead time projects in earlier backlog had cycled through in prior quarters, and our results now reflect the lower pricing levels of the more recent environment.\”
