Bruce Gowan, IWG's Chairman commented that "the company is pleased to continue its trend of revenue growth along with first deliveries of its new IWG-M1 compact water system during a quarter of significant transitional activities.  These compact water system sales are scheduled to increase in the coming quarters."

"Revenues of the second quarter this year were slightly better than those of the second quarter 2013, but the decline in operating income for the quarter was primarily due to the cost of added facilities to accommodate growth, a higher weighting of lower margin products in the quarter's sales mix and other one-time engineering and administration costs incurred.  The company continues to position itself for growth through investment in new and improved products" said President of International Water-Guard Industries Inc., Darryl Jacobs.
