Northwest Pipe reports Q4 EPS 54c, consensus 42c

Reports Q4 revenue $110.2M, consensus $107.35M. “Despite the challenging circumstances of 2023, we generated annual net sales of $444.4 million, down only moderately from 2022, demonstrating what we believe is a new level of through cycle resilience created by the growth strategy deployed over the last several years. In 2023 we faced significant challenges in both our Steel Pressure Pipe and Precast businesses. The SPP business had one of the smallest bidding volume periods we have seen in many years and the Precast business continued to be suppressed by the interest rate environment throughout 2023,” said Scott Montross, President and Chief Executive Officer of Northwest Pipe Company. “In addition, we achieved record safety performance in 2023 and collectively our facilities are well below the national average for total recordable incident rate.”
