Second quarter fiscal year 2023 financial results to be released before the market opens on November 7, 2022 with the related teleconference and webcast scheduled for 11:00 am ET that morning

BATAVIA, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Graham Corporation (NYSE: GHM), a global leader in the design and manufacture of mission-critical fluid, power, heat transfer, and vacuum technologies for the defense, space, energy, and process industries, announced a record $92 million in orders for its second quarter of fiscal 2023.

The second quarter order level was driven by:

  • $70 million from the defense industry driven by repeat orders for critical U.S. Navy programs. Revenue from second quarter fiscal 2023 defense orders is expected to be recognized from fiscal 2024 through fiscal 2026;
  • $9 million for petroleum refining, primarily related to the commercial aftermarket;
  • $4 million of orders for highly engineered pumps and turbo pumps for a variety of applications and customers in the commercial space industry.

“Our record level of orders in the second quarter reflects our continued expansion into the defense business and the success we have had meeting our customers’ requirements. We believe this is a testament to our engineering know-how, improved execution, and long-standing relationship with the U.S. Navy to provide mission critical systems for high-profile programs,” commented Daniel J. Thoren, President and CEO. “From an operational perspective, we have invested considerable time and capital to meet critical deliveries for the U.S. Navy, demonstrating that we are a supplier they can count on. Beyond defense, demand for our products in the second quarter of 2023 has been solid in our other markets. Of note, the commercial space and commercial aftermarket industries continue to recognize the value of our innovative solutions and engineering services.”
