Exhibit 99.1

GENCOR RELEASES FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2024 RESULTS

February 6, 2024 (PRIME NEWSWIRE)—Gencor Industries, Inc. (the “Company” or “Gencor”) (NYSE American: GENC) announced today net revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 of $26,018,000 increased slightly over net revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 of $25,825,000. Increased revenues from parts sales and contract equipment sales recognized over time were mostly offset by decreased revenues from contract equipment sales recognized at a point in time. As a percent of sales, gross profit margins improved to 29.0% in the quarter ended December 31, 2023, compared to 22.5% in the quarter ended December 31, 2022 on improved manufacturing efficiencies and favorable price realization.

Product engineering and development expenses decreased $96,000 to $801,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $897,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, due to reduced headcount. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased $551,000 to $3,350,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, compared to $2,799,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to increased trade shows and professional expenses.

The Company had operating income of $3,383,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 as compared to $2,119,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. The increased operating income was due to improved gross profit margins for the quarter ended December 31, 2023.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2023, the Company had net non-operating income of $2,235,000 compared to $2,455,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. Net interest and dividend income for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 was $716,000 compared to $493,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher rates earned on fixed income investments coupled with the Company reallocating a majority of its holdings in equities to fixed income in January 2023. Net realized and unrealized gains on marketable securities for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 were $1,519,000 compared to $1,962,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022.

The effective income tax rates for the quarters ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were 23.0% and 24.0%, respectively. Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 was $4,326,000, or $0.30 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $3,476,000, or $0.24 per basic and diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2022.

At December 31, 2023, the Company had $104.8 million of cash and marketable securities compared to $101.3 million at September 30, 2023. Net working capital was $169.8 million at December 31, 2023 compared to $164.8 million at September 30, 2023. The Company had no short-term or long-term debt outstanding at December 31, 2023.

The Company’s backlog was $61.3 million at December 31, 2023 compared to $42.5 million at December 31, 2022.

Mr. Marc Elliott, President, stated, “Gencor is benefiting from one of our largest backlogs of asphalt plants and equipment in the company’s history. We are pleased to begin fiscal 2024 with a backlog of $61.3 million, representing an increase of 44% year over year. Many of our customers placed orders early in anticipation of continued strong demand for road work in 2024 and beyond, resulting in the need for our quality products.

Gross profit increased 29% from the previous year due to improved manufacturing costs and efficiencies, resulting in a 59% increase in operating income for the quarter. Current quoting activity remains steady as we react to vigorous market demands. Gencor continues to see opportunities across all regions of North America as we prepare for the upcoming World of Asphalt show in Nashville, where our quality products will be on display.”

Gencor Industries, Inc. is a diversified heavy machinery manufacturer for the production of highway construction materials and equipment and environmental control machinery and equipment used in a variety of applications.
