The Company’s products are manufactured in the United States and sold through a combination of Company sales representatives and independent dealers and agents located throughout the world. The Company designs, manufactures and sells machinery and related equipment used primarily for the production of asphalt and highway construction equipment and materials. The Company’s principal core products include asphalt pavers, hot mix asphalt plants, combustion systems, and fluid heat transfer systems. The Company believes that its technical and design capabilities and environmentally friendly process technology have enabled it to become a leading producer of hot mix asphalt plants and related components in North America. The Company believes it has the largest installed base of asphalt plants in the United States. Because the Company’s products are sold primarily to companies in the highway construction industry, its business has historically been seasonal. Traditionally, the Company’s customers do not purchase new equipment during the summer and fall months to avoid disrupting their peak season for highway construction and repair work. The majority of orders for the Company’s asphalt plants and pavers are typically received between October and February, with a significant volume of shipments occurring prior to June. The principal factors driving demand for the Company’s products are the level of federal and state funding for domestic highway construction and repair, the replacement of existing plants, and a trend towards efficient, larger plants. In 1968, the Company was formed by the merger of Mechtron Corporation with General Combustion, Inc. (“General Combustion”) and Genco Manufacturing, Inc. The new entity reincorporated in Delaware in 1969 and adopted the name Mechtron International Corporation in 1970. In 1985, the Company began a series of acquisitions into related fields starting with the Beverley Group Ltd. (“Beverley”) in the United Kingdom. Hy-Way Heat Company, Inc. (“Hy- Way Heat”) and the Bituma Group were acquired in 1986. In 1987, the Company changed its name to Gencor Industries, Inc. and acquired Davis Line Inc. and its subsidiaries in 1988. In 1998, the Company entered into agreements with Carbontronics, LLC, pursuant to which the Company designed, manufactured, sold and installed four synthetic fuel production plants. In addition to payment for the plants, the Company received membership interests in two synthetic fuel entities. These derived significant cash flows from the sale of synthetic fuel and tax credits (Internal Revenue Code, Section 29) and, consequently, distributed significant cash to the Company from 2001 to 2010. The tax credit legislation expired at the end of calendar year 2007. Consequently, the four synthetic fuel plants were decommissioned. The plants were sold or transferred to site owners in exchange for a release of all contracted liabilities related to the removal of plants from the sites. Gencor’s ownership in the two synthetic fuel entities ended in 2013. On October 1, 2020, the Company acquired the Blaw-Knox assets from Volvo Construction Equipment North America, LLC (“Volvo CE”). The acquisition expanded the Company’s product offerings by adding highway class asphalt pavers to its asphalt plant and related equipment products. Products Asphalt Plants. The Company manufactures and produces hot-mix asphalt plants used in the production of asphalt paving materials. The Company also manufactures related asphalt plant equipment, including hot-mix storage silos, fabric filtration systems, cold feed bins and other plant components. The Company’s H&B (Hetherington and Berner) product line is the world’s oldest asphalt plant line, first manufactured in 1894. The Company’s subsidiary, Bituma Corporation, formerly known as Boeing Construction Company, developed the first continuous process for asphalt 3 3 production. Gencor developed and patented the first counter flow drum mix technology, several adaptations of which have become the industry standard, which recaptures and burns emissions and vapors, resulting in a cleaner and more efficient process. The Company also manufactures a very comprehensive range of fully mobile batch plants. Combustion Systems and Industrial Incinerators. The Company manufactures combustion systems, which are large burners that can transform most solid, liquid or gaseous fuels into usable energy, or burn multiple fuels, alternately or simultaneously. Through its subsidiary General Combustion, the Company has been a significant source of combustion systems for the asphalt and aggregate drying industries since the 1950’s. The Company also manufactures combustion systems for rotary dryers, kilns, fume and liquid incinerators and fuel heaters. The Company believes maintenance and fuel costs are lower for its burners because of their superior design. Fluid Heat Transfer Systems. The Company’s General Combustion subsidiary manufactures the Hy-Way Heat and Beverley lines of thermal fluid heat transfer systems and specialty storage tanks for a wide array of industry uses. Thermal fluid heat transfer systems are similar to boilers, but use high temperature oil instead of water. Thermal fluid heaters have been replacing steam pressure boilers as the best method of heat transfer for storage, heating and pumping viscous materials (i.e., asphalt, chemicals, heavy oils, etc.) in many industrial and petrochemical applications worldwide. The Company believes the high-efficiency design of its thermal fluid heaters can outperform competitive units in many types of process applications. Asphalt Pavers. The Company manufactures asphalt pavers under the Blaw-Knox brand. The Blaw-Knox brand dates back over a century, when in 1917 Blaw Collapsible Steel Centering Company merged with the Knox Pressed and Welded Steel Company. Blaw-Knox made its first road paving equipment in 1929. Blaw-Knox pavers are the industry leading, highway class pavers that deliver outstanding reliability and produce the highest quality rideable surfaces in the industry. Projects paved with Blaw-Knox pavers continually win industry awards for the highest quality highway pavements. Product Engineering and Development The Company is engaged in product engineering and development efforts to expand its product lines and to further develop more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly equipment. Product engineering and development activities are directed toward more efficient methods of producing asphalt and lower cost fluid heat transfer systems. In addition, efforts are also focused on developing combustion systems that operate at higher efficiency and offer a higher level of environmental compatibility. Sources of Supply and Manufacturing Substantially all products and components sold by the Company and its subsidiaries are manufactured and assembled by the Company. The Company purchases steel, other raw materials and hardware used to manufacture its products from numerous suppliers. The Company may augment internal production by outsourcing some of its production when demand for its products exceeds its manufacturing capacity. Seasonality The Company is concentrated in the manufacturing of asphalt pavers, asphalt plants and related components, which is typically subject to a seasonal slow-down during the third and fourth quarters of the calendar year. Competition The markets for the Company’s products are highly competitive. The industry remains fairly concentrated, with a small number of companies competing for the majority of the Company’s product lines. The principal competitive factors include quality, price, delivery, availability, and technology. The Company believes it manufactures the highest quality and heaviest equipment in the industry. Its products’ performance reliability, brand recognition, pricing, and after-the- sale technical support are other important factors. 4 4 Sales and Marketing The Company’s products and services are marketed primarily through Company-employed sales representatives and independent dealers. Sales Backlog The size of the Company’s backlog should not be viewed as an indicator of the Company’s quarterly or annualized revenues, due to the timing of order fulfillment of asphalt plants. The Company’s backlog, which includes orders received through the date of this filing, was $53.1 million and $24.9 million as of December 1, 2021 and December 1, 2020, respectively. Financial Information about Geographic Areas Reporting Segments For a geographic breakdown of revenues and long-term assets, see Reporting Segments and Geographic Areas in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Licenses, Patents and Trademarks The Company holds numerous patents covering technology and applications related to various products, equipment and systems, and numerous trademarks and trade names registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and in various foreign countries. In general, the Company depends upon technological capabilities, manufacturing quality control and application know-how, rather than patents or other proprietary rights in the conduct of its business. Government Regulations The Company believes its design and manufacturing processes meet all industry and governmental agency standards that may apply to its entire line of products, including all domestic and foreign environmental, structural, electrical and safety codes. The Company’s products are designed and manufactured to comply with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulations. Certain state and local regulatory authorities have strong environmental impact regulations. While the Company believes that such regulations have helped, rather than restricted its marketing efforts and sales results, there is no assurance that changes to federal, state, local, or foreign laws and regulations will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s products and earnings in the future. Environmental Matters The Company is subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. The Company believes it is in compliance with all applicable environmental laws and regulations. The Company does not expect any material impact on future operating costs as a result of compliance with currently enacted environmental regulations. Employees As of September 30, 2021, the Company had 380 full-time employees. The Company has a collective bargaining agreement covering employees at its Marquette, Iowa facility. No other employees are represented by a labor union or collective bargaining agreement. Available Information For further discussion concerning the Company’s business, see the information included in Item 7 (Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations) and Item 8 (Financial Statements and Supplementary Data) of this Annual Report. The Company makes available free of charge through its website at www.gencor.com the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports, if applicable, filed or furnished pursuant to Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as soon as reasonably practicable after the material is electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The information posted on the website is not incorporated into this Annual Report. 5 5 6  ITEM 1A RISK FACTORS The following risk factors and other information included in this Annual Report should be carefully considered. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones the Company faces. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company, or that the Company presently deems less significant, may also impair the Company’s operations. If any of the following risks actually occur, the Company’s business operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. The order of these risk factors does not reflect their relative importance or likelihood of occurrence. The business is affected by the cyclical nature of the markets it serves. The demand for the Company’s products is dependent on general economic conditions and more specifically, Federal and state funding for highways and roads. Adverse economic conditions may cause customers to forego or delay new purchases and rely more on repairing existing equipment thus negatively impacting the Company’s sales and profits. The business is affected by the level of government funding for highway construction in the United States and Canada. Most highway contractors in the U.S. and Canada depend on funding by federal, provincial, state and local agencies for highway, transit and infrastructure programs. Future legislation may increase or decrease government spending, which, if decreased, could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. Federal and/or state funding allocated to infrastructure may decrease in the future. Previously, the Company depended on one customer for a significant portion of its revenue. The loss of any relationship with a large customer, or a significant downturn in the business or financial condition of any such customer, could have adverse consequences on the Company’s future business. No customer accounted for 10% or more of fiscal 2021 or 2020 revenues. If the Company had customers that accounted for a significant portion of its net revenues, then the loss of any of those customers, or a significant reduction in sales to any such customer, could adversely affect the Company’s revenues and, consequently, its business. If the Company fails to comply with requirements relating to internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the business could be harmed and its stock price could decline. Rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 require the Company to assess its internal control over financial reporting annually. The rules governing the standards that must be met for management to assess its internal control over financial reporting are complex. They require significant documentation, testing, and possible remediation of any significant deficiencies in and/or material weaknesses of internal controls in order to meet the detailed standards under these rules. The Company has evaluated its internal control over financial reporting as effective as of September 30, 2021. See Item 9A – Controls and Procedures – Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Although the Company concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was effective as of September 30, 2021, in future fiscal years, the Company may encounter unanticipated delays or problems in assessing its internal control over financial reporting as effective or in completing its assessments by the required dates. In addition, the Company cannot be assured that, if required, its independent registered public accountants will attest that internal control over financial reporting is effective in future fiscal years. If the Company cannot assess its internal control over financial reporting as effective, investor confidence and share value may be negatively impacted. The Company may be required to reduce its profit margins on contracts where revenues are recognized over time. Revenues from contracts with customers for the design, manufacture and sale of custom equipment are recognized over time when the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of the equipment. Control of the equipment transfers over time as the equipment is unique to the specific contract and thus does not create an asset with an alternative use. Revenues and costs are recognized in proportion to actual labor costs incurred, as compared with total 7 6 estimated labor costs expected to be incurred during the entire contract. As a result, revisions made to the estimates of revenues and profits are recorded in the period in which the conditions that require such revisions become known and can be estimated. Although the Company believes that its profit margins are fairly stated and that adequate provisions for losses for its fixed-price contracts are recorded in the financial statements, as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), the Company cannot assure that its estimated contract profit margins will not decrease or its estimated loss provisions will not increase materially in the future. The Company may encounter difficulties with acquisitions. As part of its growth strategy, the Company intends to evaluate the acquisition of other companies, assets or product lines that would complement or expand the Company’s existing business or broaden its customer base. Although the Company conducts due diligence reviews of potential acquisition candidates, it may not be able to identify all material liabilities or risks related to potential acquisition candidates. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to locate and acquire any business, retain key personnel and customers of an acquired business or integrate any acquired business successfully. Additionally, there can be no assurance that financing for any acquisition, if necessary, will be available on acceptable terms, if at all, or that the Company will be able to accomplish its strategic objectives in connection with any acquisition. The Company’s marketable securities are comprised of cash and money funds, equities, corporate bonds, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, and government securities invested through professional investment management firms and are subject to various risks, such as interest rates, markets, and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of securities, changes in these risk factors could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations. There are and will continue to be quarterly fluctuations of the Company’s operating results. The Company’s operating results historically have fluctuated from quarter to quarter as a result of a number of factors, including the value, timing and shipment of individual orders and the mix of products sold. Revenues from contracts with customers for the design, manufacture and sale of custom equipment are recognized over time when the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of the equipment. Revenues from all other contracts for the design and manufacture of equipment, for service and for parts sales, net of any discounts and return allowances, are recorded at a point in time when control of the goods or services has been transferred. The Company’s asphalt production equipment operations are subject to seasonal fluctuations, which may lower revenues and result in possible quarterly operating losses. If the Company is unable to attract and retain key personnel, its business could be adversely affected. The success of the Company will continue to depend substantially upon the efforts, abilities and services of its management team and certain other key employees. The loss of one or more key employees could adversely affect the Company’s operations. The Company’s ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, either through direct hiring, or acquisition of other businesses employing such persons, will also be an important factor in determining its future success. The Company may be required to defend its intellectual property against infringement or against infringement claims of others. The Company holds numerous patents covering technology and applications related to various products, equipment and systems, and numerous trademarks and trade names registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and in various foreign countries. There can be no assurance as to the breadth or degree of protection that future patents or trademarks may afford the Company, or that any pending patent or trademark applications will result in issued patents or trademarks, or that the Company’s patents, registered trademarks or patent applications, if any, will be upheld if challenged, or that competitors will not develop similar or superior methods or products outside the protection of any 8 7 patents issued, licensed or sublicensed to the Company. Although the Company believes that none of its technologies, products or trademarks infringe upon the patents, technologies, products or trademarks of others, it is possible that the Company’s trademarks or other rights may not be valid or that infringement of future patents, trademarks or proprietary rights may occur. In the event that the Company’s products are deemed to infringe upon the patent or proprietary rights of others, the Company could be required to modify the design of its products, change the name of its products or obtain a license for the use of certain technologies incorporated into its products. There can be no assurance that the Company would be able to do any of the foregoing in a timely manner, upon acceptable terms and conditions, or at all, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company will have the financial or other resources necessary to enforce or defend a patent, registered trademark or other proprietary right, and, if the Company’s products are deemed to infringe upon the patents, trademarks or other proprietary rights of others, the Company could become liable for damages, which could also have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company may be subject to substantial liability for its products. The Company is engaged in a business that could expose it to possible liability claims for personal injury or property damage due to alleged design or manufacturing defects in its products. The Company believes that it meets existing professional specification standards recognized or required in the industries in which it operates, and there are no material product liability claims pending against the Company as of the date hereof. Although the Company currently maintains product liability coverage, which it believes is adequate for the continued operation of its business, such insurance may prove inadequate or become difficult to obtain or unobtainable in the future on terms acceptable to the Company. The Company is subject to extensive environmental laws and regulations, and the costs related to compliance with, or the Company’s failure to comply with, existing or future laws and regulations, could adversely affect the business and results of operations. The Company’s operations are subject to federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. Sanctions for noncompliance may include revocation of permits, corrective action orders, significant administrative or civil penalties and criminal prosecution. The Company’s business involves environmental management and issues typically associated with historical manufacturing operations. To date, the Company’s cost of complying with environmental laws and regulations has not been material, but the fact that such laws or regulations are changed frequently makes predicting the cost or impact of such laws and regulations on the Company’s future operations uncertain. The Company is dependent upon third-party suppliers, making it vulnerable to supply shortages and price increases. The principal raw material the Company uses is carbon steel which is sourced through numerous suppliers. The Company also uses select suppliers to provide proprietary components to its finished products. Although the Company believes that raw materials are available from alternate sources, an interruption in the supply of steel or related products or a substantial increase in the price of steel or related products could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s production and its results of operations. In addition, the cost of parts or materials may increase significantly for reasons other than changes in commodity prices. Factors such as supply and demand, freight costs, availability of transportation, availability of labor, inventory levels, the level of imports, the imposition of duties and tariffs and other trade barriers and general economic conditions may affect the price of our parts or materials. Market conditions could limit the Company’s ability to raise selling prices to offset increases in material and/or labor costs. In the future, we could experience some disruption in the supply of some of our parts or materials that we purchase from suppliers. Delays in obtaining parts or materials may result from a number of factors affecting our suppliers including capacity constraints, labor shortages or supplier product quality issues. These risks are increased in a weak economic environment or when demand increases coming out of an economic downturn. Such disruptions could result in 9 8 manufacturing inefficiencies caused by the Company having to wait for parts to arrive on production lines, could delay sales and could result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, and/or cash flows. The Company is subject to government regulations. The Company is committed to responsible environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) practices. The Company strives to be recognized as a company that achieves customer expectations safely and in a manner that rewards both its customers and its employees. The Company strives to achieve these goals through an organizational structure that provides excellent service and a reputation of integrity with the communities where it operates while providing its employees with growth opportunities in an injury-free environment. The Company is subject to a variety of governmental regulations relating to the manufacturing of its products. Failure by the Company to comply with regulations could subject it to liabilities, or suspension of production that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results. Such regulations could also restrict the Company’s ability to expand its facilities, or to incur other expenses to comply with such regulations. Although the Company believes it has the design and manufacturing capability to meet all industry or governmental agency standards that may apply to its product lines, including all domestic and foreign environmental, structural, electrical and safety codes, there can be no assurance that governmental laws and regulations will not become more stringent over time, imposing greater compliance costs and increasing risks and penalties associated with a violation. The cost to the Company of such compliance to date has not materially affected its business, financial condition or results of operations. There can be no assurance, however, that violations will not occur in the future as a result of human error, equipment failure or other causes. The Company’s customers are also subject to extensive regulations, including those related to the workplace. The Company cannot predict the nature, scope or effect of governmental legislation, or regulatory requirements that could be imposed or how existing or future laws or regulations will be administered, or interpreted. Compliance with more stringent laws or regulations, as well as more vigorous enforcement policies of regulatory agencies, could require substantial expenditures by the Company and could adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations. Increasing scrutiny and changing expectations from stakeholders with respect to the Company’s ESG practices may expose us to new or additional risks. Companies across many industries are facing increasing scrutiny from stakeholders related to their ESG practices. Investor advocacy groups, certain institutional investors, investment funds and other influential investors are also increasingly focused on ESG practices and in recent years have placed increasing importance on the implications and social cost of their investments. Regardless of the industry, investors’ and stakeholders’ increased focus related to stakeholder ESG expectations and standards, which are evolving, may cause the Company to suffer from reputational damage and its business or financial condition could be adversely affected. The Company’s management has effective voting control. The Company’s officers beneficially own 100% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Class B stock. The holders of the Class B stock are entitled to elect 75% (calculated to the nearest whole number, rounding five-tenths to next highest whole number) of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors. Further, approval of a majority of the holders of the Class B stock is generally required to affect a sale of the Company and certain other corporate transactions. As a result, the Class B shareholders can elect more than a majority of the Board of Directors and exercise significant influence over most matters requiring approval by the Company’s shareholders. This concentration of control may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control. The issuance of preferred stock may impede a change of control or may be dilutive to existing shareholders. The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, authorizes the Company’s Board of Directors, without shareholder vote, to issue up to 300,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to determine for any series the dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other preferences, rights and terms that are senior, and not available, to 10 9 the holders of the Company’s common stock. Thus, issuances of series of preferred stock could adversely affect the relative voting power, distributions and other rights of the common stock. The issuance of preferred stock could deter or impede a merger, tender offer or other transaction that some, or a majority of the Company’s common shareholders might believe to be in their best interest or in which the Company’s common shareholders might receive a premium for their shares over the then current market price of such shares. The Company may be required to indemnify its directors and executive officers. The Company has authority under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law to indemnify its directors and officers to the extent provided in that statute. The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides that a director shall not be personally liable to the Company for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law. The Company’s Bylaws provide, in part, that it indemnify each of its directors and officers against liabilities imposed upon them (including reasonable amounts paid in settlement) and expenses incurred by them in connection with any claim made against them or any action, suit or proceeding to which they may be a party by reason of their being or having been a director or officer. The Company maintains officers’ and directors’ liability insurance coverage. There can be no assurance that such insurance will be available in the future, or that if available, it will be available on terms that are acceptable to the Company. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the insurance coverage provided will be sufficient to cover the amount of any judgment awarded against an officer or director (either individually or in the aggregate). Consequently, if such judgment exceeds the coverage under the policy, the Company may be forced to pay such difference. The Company enters into indemnification agreements with each of its executive officers and directors containing provisions that may require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as officers or directors (other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable nature) and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. Management believes that such indemnification provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and executive officers. The Company does not expect to pay cash dividends for the foreseeable future. The Company intends to retain its cash to fund its business requirements. It does not anticipate paying cash dividends on its common stock or Class B stock. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and will be dependent upon existing conditions, including the financial condition and results of operations, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, business prospects, and other factors that the Board of Directors considers relevant. Competition could reduce revenue from the Company’s products and services and cause it to lose market share. The Company currently faces strong competition in product performance, price and service. Some of the Company’s competitors have greater financial, product development and marketing resources than the Company. If competition in the Company’s industry intensifies or if the current competitors enhance their products or lower their prices for competing products, the Company may lose sales or be required to lower the prices it charges for its products. This may reduce revenues from the Company’s products and services, lower its gross margins, or cause a loss in market share. The Company’s quarterly operating results are likely to fluctuate, which may decrease its stock price. The Company’s quarterly operating results have varied significantly in the past and are likely to vary significantly from quarter to quarter in the future. As a result, the Company’s operating results may fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors in some quarters, which could result in a decrease in the market price of its common stock. The reasons the Company’s quarterly results may fluctuate include: • General competitive and economic conditions; 11 10 • Delays in, or uneven timing in, delivery of customer orders; • The seasonal nature of the industry; • The fluctuations in the market value of its securities portfolio; • The introduction of new products by the Company or its competitors; • Product supply shortages; • Reduced demand due to adverse weather conditions; • Expiration or renewal of Federal highway programs; and • Changes to federal, state or Canadian provincial programs. Period-to-period comparisons of such items should not be relied on as indications of future performance. The Company’s common stock has been, and likely will continue to be, subject to substantial price and volume fluctuations due to a number of factors, many of which will be beyond the Company’s control. The market price of the Company’s common stock may be significantly affected by various factors, such as: • Quarterly variations in operating results; • Changes in revenue growth rates as a whole or for specific geographic areas or products; • Changes in earnings estimates by market analysts; • The announcement of new products or product enhancements by the Company or its competitors; • Speculation in the press or analyst community of potential acquisitions by the Company; and • General market conditions or market conditions specific to particular industries. The Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and the stock price of its common stock could be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company’s business, results of operations financial condition, cash flows, and the stock price of its common stock can be adversely affected by pandemics or other public health emergencies, such as the recent outbreak of COVID-19 and its variants. In March 2020, the WHO declared COVID-19 as a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in governments around the world implementing increasingly stringent measures to help control the spread of the virus, including “stay at home” orders, travel restrictions, business curtailments, school closures, and other measures. The outbreak of COVID-19 (including any variants) and any preventive or protective actions taken by governmental authorities may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations, supply chain, customers, and transportation networks, including business shutdown or disruptions. The extent to which COVID-19 and its variants may adversely impact the Company’s business depends on future developments, which are highly uncertain and unpredictable, depends upon the severity and duration of the outbreak and the effectiveness of actions taken globally to contain or mitigate its effect. Any resulting financial impact cannot be estimated reasonably at this time, but may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, the Company may experience materially adverse impacts to its business due to any resulting economic downturn. Additionally, concerns over the economic impact of COVID-19 and its variants have caused volatility in financial and other capital markets, which has and may continue to adversely impact the Company’s stock price, its ability to access capital markets, and the value of its investment portfolio. To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects the Company’s business and financial results it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in this Annual Report, such as those relating to the Company’s products and financial performance. The Company may suffer adverse consequences if it is deemed an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). Under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act, a company is deemed to be an investment company if it is, or holds itself out as being, engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting, or 12 11 trading in securities. The Company believes that it is not an investment company under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company Act because it does not hold itself out as being engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities. Rather, the Company has been a manufacturer of heavy equipment used in the production of asphalt for highway construction and environmental control equipment for over 50 years. The Company’s core products include asphalt plants, combustion systems, and fluid heat transfer systems. The Company is expanding its product offerings through new product introductions and its 2020 acquisition of an asphalt paver product line. Under Section 3(a)(1)(C) of the Investment Company Act, a company is deemed to be an investment company if it is engaged, or proposes to engage in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding, or trading in securities and owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of its total assets (exclusive of U.S. Government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. As reflected on the Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2021, the Company owns a significant amount of marketable securities, which include cash, cash equivalents, government and corporate bonds, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and equities. Section 3(a)(2) defines the term “investment securities”, as used in Section 3(a)(1)(C) to include all marketable securities except government securities and cash and cash equivalents. The value of the Company’s investment securities exceeded 40% of the value of its total assets (excluding government securities and cash items) at September 30, 2021. Because of the value of its investment securities, the Company may be deemed an investment company. The Company believes that it is not an investment company under Section 3(a)(1)(C) of the Investment Company Act because it does not propose to engage in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding, or trading in securities. In addition, if the Company was deemed an investment company under Section 3(a)(1)(C), it believes that it will qualify for an exemption from the definition of an investment company as it is primarily engaged in a business other than that of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding, or trading in securities. As noted above, the Company is primarily engaged in the manufacturing of heavy equipment. If the SEC or a court challenged the Company’s status as an operating company, it could incur significant legal expenses. If the Company was deemed to be, and was required to register as an investment company, the Company would be forced to comply with the legal requirements of the Investment Company Act that would regulate the manner in which the Company would be permitted to conduct its business activities. As an investment company, the Company would be (i) subjected to disclosure and accounting guidance geared toward investment, rather than operating, companies; (ii) significantly limited in its ability to borrow money, issue options, issue multiple classes of stock and debt, and engage in transactions with affiliates; and (iii) required to undertake significant costs and expenses to meet other disclosure, reporting, and regulatory requirements to which it would be subject as a registered investment company. The Company faces risks with the acquisition of Blaw-Knox and any future acquisitions. The Company acquired the Blaw-Knox assets on October 1, 2020. The success of this acquisition depends, in part, on the Company’s ability to successfully grow the business and realize anticipated benefits, including any synergies. It may take longer than expected to realize growth in the business or realize anticipated benefits, which may be smaller than the Company expected. Also, there are a number of challenges and risks involved in the Company’s ability to successfully integrate Blaw-Knox with its current business. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Acquiring businesses or products that expand and/or complement the Company’s operations has been an element of its business strategy. The Company continues to evaluate potential acquisitions that may expand and/or complement its business. The Company may not be able to successfully identify attractive acquisition candidates or negotiate favorable terms in the future. Furthermore, the Company’s ability to effectively integrate any future acquisitions will depend on, among other things, the adequacy of its implementation plans, the ability of its management to oversee and operate effectively the combined operations, and the Company’s ability to achieve desired operational efficiencies. The Company’s failure to successfully integrate the operations of any business that it may acquire in the future may adversely affect our business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. 13 12 There can be a shortage of skilled production workers, especially those with welding and/or fabricating capabilities. The Company could experience difficulty hiring or replacing those individuals, which could adversely affect its business. Our fabrication process requires skilled production workers. If we are unable to retain and hire an adequate number of individuals with welding and fabrication capabilities, this could adversely impact our ability to achieve our financial objectives. In addition, if demand for skilled production workers were to significantly outstrip supply, wages for these workers could dramatically increase and could affect our financial performance.

These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond the Company’s control. Actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of important factors, including the financial condition of the Company’s customers, changes in the economic and competitive environments, the performance of the investment portfolio and the demand for the Company’s products. For information concerning these factors and related matters, see “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A in this Annual Report. However, other factors besides those referenced could adversely affect the Company’s results, and you should not consider any such list of factors to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties. Any forward-looking statements made by the Company herein speak as of the date of this Annual Report. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Overview Gencor is a leading manufacturer of heavy machinery used in the production of highway construction equipment and materials and environmental control equipment. The Company’s core products include asphalt pavers, hot mix asphalt plants, combustion systems, fluid heat transfer systems and asphalt pavers. The Company’s products are manufactured at three facilities in the United States. Because the Company’s products are sold primarily to the highway construction industry, the business is seasonal in nature. Traditionally, the Company’s customers reduce their purchases of new equipment for shipment during the summer and fall months to avoid disrupting their peak season for highway construction and related repair work. The majority of orders for the Company’s products are thus received between October and February, with a significant volume of shipments occurring in the late winter and spring. The principal factors driving demand for the Company’s products are the overall economic conditions, the level of government funding for domestic highway construction and repair, Canadian infrastructure spending, the need for spare parts, fluctuations in the price of liquid asphalt, and a trend towards larger more efficient asphalt plants. On November 15, 2021, President Biden signed into law a five-year, $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (the “IIJ Act”), including $550 billion in new spending and reauthorization of $650 billion in previously allocated funds. The IIJ Act provides $110 billion for the nation's highways, bridges and roads. California’s Senate Bill 1 (“SB1”), the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, was signed into law on April 28, 2017. The legislative package invests $54 billion over the next decade to fix roads, freeways and bridges in communities across California and puts more dollars towards transit and safety. These funds will be allocated to state and local projects. Additionally, numerous other states have taken steps to increase their gas tax revenues in recent years. Fluctuations in the price of carbon steel, which is a significant cost and material used in the manufacturing of the Company’s equipment, may affect the Company’s financial performance. The Company is subject to fluctuations in market prices for raw materials, such as steel. If the Company is unable to purchase materials it requires or is unable to pass on price increases to its customers or otherwise reduce its cost of goods sold, its business results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected. 17 15 Also, a significant increase in the price of liquid asphalt could decrease demand for hot mix asphalt paving materials and certain of the Company’s products. Increases in oil prices also drive up the cost of gasoline and diesel, which results in increased freight costs. Where possible, the Company will pass increased freight costs on to its customers. However, the Company may not be able to recapture all of the higher costs and thus could have a negative impact on the Company’s financial performance. The Company believes its strategy of continuing to invest in product engineering and development and its focus on delivering the highest quality products and superior service will strengthen the Company’s market position. The Company continues to review its internal processes to identify inefficiencies and cost-reduction opportunities. The Company will continue to scrutinize its relationships with suppliers to ensure it is achieving the highest quality materials and services at the most competitive cost. COVID-19 Pandemic The Company continues to monitor and evaluate the risks to public health and the slowdown in overall business activity related to the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, including impacts on its employees, customers, suppliers and financial results. As of the date of issuance of this Annual Report, the Company’s operations have not been significantly impacted. However, the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve subsequent to the quarter and year ended September 30, 2021 and as of the date this Annual Report is issued. As such, the full magnitude that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on the Company’s financial condition and future results of operations is uncertain. Management continues to monitor the Company’s financial condition, operations, suppliers, industry, customers, and workforce. If the spread of COVID-19 and its variants continues, the Company’s ability to meet customer demands for products may be impacted or its customers may experience adverse business consequences due to COVID-19 and its variants. Reduced demand for products or ability to meet customer demand (including as a result of disruptions at the Company’s suppliers) could have a material adverse effect on its business operations and financial performance. Results of Operations Year ended September 30, 2021 compared with the year ended September 30, 2020 Net revenue for the year ended September 30, 2021 increased 10.1% to $85.3 million from $77.4 million for the year ended September 30, 2020. The increase in net revenue was due primarily to paver equipment and parts sales of approximately $6.1 million for the year ended September 30, 2021, compared with no paver related revenues in fiscal 2020. Net revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 increased 91.7% to $20.0 million compared to $10.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. The increase in net revenues reflected improved orders from prior year in anticipation of the signing of a new highway bill to replace the FAST Act, which after two temporary extensions, would have expired on December 3, 2021. In addition, net revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 includes $2.2 million of paver equipment and parts sales compared with no paver related revenues in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. Gross profit margins decreased to 21.3% in fiscal 2021 from 24.5% in fiscal 2020. The gross profit margins for the year ended September 30, 2021 were negatively impacted by approximately $4.6 million of unabsorbed manufacturing labor and overhead expenses related to the paver line. In addition, increases in labor rates and steel and OEM parts prices contributed to the lower overall gross margins during the year ended September 30, 2021. Product engineering and development (“PED”) expenses in fiscal 2021 increased by $1,217,000 to $4,278,000 from $3,061,000 in fiscal 2020 primarily due to engineering wages related to the paver line. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in fiscal 2021 increased $2,843,000 to $13,199,000 from $10,356,000 in fiscal 2020. The higher SG&A expenses were primarily due to expenses related to the paver line and professional fees to support business development efforts. 18 16 Fiscal 2021 had operating income of $701,000 versus $5,536,000 in fiscal 2020. The decrease in operating income was due primarily to the operational and start-up costs related to the Blaw-Knox asset acquisition and professional fees to support business development efforts. On October 1, 2020, the Company acquired the Blaw-Knox assets, including inventory, fixed assets and related intellectual property, from Volvo Construction Equipment North America, LLC (“Volvo CE”). The acquisition provided the Company entry into the asphalt paver sector of the asphalt industry. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, “Business Combinations.” The initial purchase price of approximately $14.4 million, which was subject to post-closing adjustments, was funded by cash on hand. After post-closing adjustments transacted during quarter ended March 31, 2021, the final purchase price was $13.8 million, including $10.4 million in inventory and $3.4 million in fixed assets. There were no liabilities assumed. The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended September 30, 2021, include the assets, liabilities and operating results of the paver line. There were no paver equipment revenues during the quarter ended December 31, 2020, as the facility was being readied for production which began in the quarter ended March 31, 2021. As of September 30, 2021 and 2020, the cost basis of the investment portfolio was $93.7 million and $89.5 million, respectively. For the year ended September 30, 2021, interest and dividend income, net of fees, from the investment portfolio was $1,306,000, as compared to $2,321,000 for year ended September 30, 2020. Interest income for the year ended September 30, 2021, also included $456,000 of interest collected from a customer. The higher interest income from the investment portfolio in fiscal 2020 reflects the impact from a larger investment in corporate bonds and a higher average yield to maturity. The fiscal 2021 corporate bonds were reduced as the related investments were partially liquidated to fund the Blaw-Knox acquisition. Net realized and unrealized gains on marketable securities were $4,171,000 for the year ended September 30, 2021 versus net realized and unrealized losses of $(1,160,000) for the year ended September 30, 2020. The fiscal 2020 investment losses reflect the decline in the domestic equity markets from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The total cash, cash equivalents and investments balance at September 30, 2021 was $118.2 million, compared to the September 30, 2020 cash, cash equivalents and investments balance of $125.1 million, a decrease of $6.9 million. The effective income tax rate for fiscal 2021 was 12.5% versus 17.2% in fiscal 2020. In fiscal 2021, the Company generated $335,000 of federal research and development tax credits (“R&D Credits”), all of which were used in fiscal 2021. In fiscal 2020, the Company generated $421,000 of R&D Credits, all of which were used in fiscal 2020. There were no R&D Credits carryforwards as of September 30, 2021 or September 30, 2020. Net income for the year ended September 30, 2021 was $5,805,000 or $0.39 per diluted share versus net income of $5,531,000 or $0.38 per diluted share for the year ended September 30, 2020. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company generates capital resources through operations and returns from its investments. The Company had no long-term debt outstanding at September 30, 2021 or 2020. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has funded $85,000 in cash deposits at insurance companies to cover collateral needs. In April 2020, a financial institution issued an irrevocable standby letter of credit (“letter of credit”) on behalf of the Company for the benefit of one of the Company’s insurance carriers. The maximum amount that can be drawn by the beneficiary under the letter of credit is $150,000. The letter of credit expires in April 2022, unless terminated earlier, and can be extended, as provided by the agreement. The Company intends to renew the letter of credit for as long as the Company does business with the beneficiary insurance carrier. The letter is collateralized by restricted cash of the same amount on any outstanding drawings. To date, no amounts have been drawn under the letter of credit. 19 17 As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $23.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, and $95.0 million in marketable securities. The marketable securities are invested through a professional investment management firm. The securities may be liquidated at any time into cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s backlog, which includes orders received through the filing date of this Annual Report, was $64.1 million at September 30, 2021 versus $34.6 million at September 30, 2020. The Company’s working capital was $155.4 million at September 30, 2021 versus $153.2 million at September 30, 2020. The significant purchases, sales and maturities of marketable securities shown on the consolidated statements of cash flows typically reflect the frequent purchase and sale of United States treasury bills. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company liquidated approximately $17.0 million of its investments. The cash was primarily used to fund the acquisition of the Blaw-Knox assets. Year ended September 30, 2021 compared with the year ended September 30, 2020 Cash provided by operations in fiscal 2021 was $3,820,000, primarily resulting from net income. The significant purchases, sales and maturities of marketable securities shown on the consolidated statements of cash flows reflect the recurring purchases and sales of United States treasury bills. The decrease in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings of $4.5 million reflects the completion and shipment of several large contracts with revenues recognized over time during the year ended September 30, 2021. Excluding the impact of the Blaw-Knox acquisition, inventories increased by $4.4 million primarily due to progress on several large contract orders where revenue is recognized at a point in time and some stock build to compensate for the longer lead times from suppliers. Accounts payable increased by $1.4 million due to the additional payables related to the Blaw-Knox business along with the increase in inventory. Customer deposits increased $1.4 million, reflecting the down payments on contract jobs, including several recent orders where revenues are recognized over time but work is yet to begin. Cash provided by operations in fiscal 2020 was $26,774,000, primarily resulting from the sale of investment securities and net income. The decrease in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings of $7.4 million reflects the completion of customer contracts with revenues recognized over time that were open at the end of fiscal 2019 and the reduced number of such contracts open at the end of fiscal 2020. The increase in inventories of $1.7 million reflects the progress on several contract jobs where revenues are recognized at a point in time. Customer deposits increased $1.9 million, reflecting the down payments on these jobs. Cash flows used in investing activities for the year ended September 30, 2021 of $16,436,000 were related to the acquisition of the Blaw-Knox paver line and subsequent capital expenditures, primarily for systems software and leasehold improvements for the paver line’s manufacturing facility. Cash provided by financing activities of $264,000 for the year ended September 30, 2021, related to proceeds from the exercise of stock options. Cash used in investing activities during the year ended September 30, 2020 of $1,595,000 for the year ended September 30, 2020, related primarily to capital expenditures for manufacturing equipment. Cash provided by financing activities of $103,000 in fiscal 2020 related to proceeds from the exercise of stock options. Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Assumptions The Company believes the following discussion addresses it’s most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Accounting policies, in addition to the critical accounting policies referenced below, are presented in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, “Accounting Policies.” 20 18 Estimates and Assumptions In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company uses certain estimates and assumptions that may affect reported amounts and disclosures. Estimates and assumptions are used, among other places, when accounting for certain revenue (e.g., contract accounting), expense, and asset and liability valuations. The Company believes that the estimates and assumptions made in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements are reasonable, but are inherently uncertain. Assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate and unanticipated events may occur. The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ from estimated results. Revenues & Expenses The Company accounts for revenues and related expenses under the provisions of ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), as amended (“ASU No. 2014-09”). Revenues from contracts with customers for the design, manufacture and sale of custom equipment are recognized over time when the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of the equipment. Control of the equipment transfers over time as the equipment is unique to the specific contract and thus does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Company. Revenues and related costs are recognized in proportion to actual labor costs incurred, as compared with total estimated labor costs expected to be incurred during the entire contract. All incremental costs related to obtaining a contract are expensed as incurred as the amortization period is less than one year. Changes to total estimated contract costs or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined. Contract assets (excluding accounts receivable) under contracts with customers represent revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed on equipment sales recognized over time. These contract assets were $1,903,000 and $6,405,000 at September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and are included in current assets as costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company anticipates that all of the contract assets at September 30, 2021, will be billed and collected within one year. Revenues from all other contracts for the design and manufacture of equipment, for service and for parts sales, net of any discounts and return allowances, are recorded at a point in time when control of the goods or services has been transferred. Control of the goods or service typically transfers at time of shipment or upon completion of the service. Payment for equipment under contract with customers is typically due prior to shipment. Payment for services under contract with customers is due as services are completed. Accounts receivable related to contracts with customers at September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 were $210,000 and $223,000, respectively. Product warranty costs are estimated using historical experience and known issues and are charged to production costs as revenue is recognized. Under certain contracts with customers, recognition of a portion of the consideration received may be deferred and recorded as a contract liability if the Company has to satisfy a future obligation, such as to provide installation assistance. There were no contract liabilities other than customer deposits at September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020. Customer deposits related to contracts with customers were $5,244,000 and $3,853,000 at September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and are included in current liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company records revenues earned for shipping and handling as freight revenue at the time of shipment, regardless of whether or not it is identified as a separate performance obligation. The cost of shipping and handling is classified as cost of goods sold concurrently. Provisions for estimated returns and allowances and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. Returns and allowances, which reduce product revenue, are estimated using historical experience. All product engineering and development costs, and selling, general and administrative expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Provision is made for any anticipated contract losses in the period that the loss becomes evident. 21 19 The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by performing a specific review of all account balances greater than 90 days past due and other higher risk amounts to determine collectability and also adjusting for any known customer payment issues with account balances in the less-than-90-day past due aging buckets. Account balances are charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when they are determined to be uncollectable. Any recoveries of account balances previously considered in the allowance for doubtful accounts reduce future additions to the allowance for doubtful accounts. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined under the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method and net realizable value defined as the estimated selling price of goods less reasonable costs of completion and delivery (see Note 2 to Consolidated Financial Statements). Appropriate consideration is given to obsolescence, excessive levels, deterioration, possible alternative uses and other factors in determining net realizable value. The cost of work in process and finished goods includes materials, direct labor, variable costs and overhead. The Company evaluates the need to record inventory adjustments on all inventories, including raw materials, work in process, finished goods, spare parts and used equipment. Used equipment acquired by the Company on trade-in from customers is carried at estimated net realizable value. Unless specific circumstances warrant different treatment regarding inventory obsolescence, an allowance is established to reduce the cost basis of inventories three to four years old by 50%, the cost basis of inventories four to five years old by 75%, and the cost basis of inventories greater than five years old to zero. Inventory is typically reviewed for obsolescence on an annual basis computed as of September 30, the Company’s fiscal year end. If significant known changes in trends, technology or other specific circumstances that warrant consideration occur during the year, then the impact on obsolescence is considered at that time. Investments Marketable debt and equity securities are categorized as trading securities and are thus marked to market and stated at fair value. Fair value is determined using the quoted closing or latest bid prices for Level 1 investments and market standard valuation methodologies for Level 2 investments. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined by specific identification and are recognized as incurred in the consolidated income statements. Net unrealized gains and losses are reported in the consolidated income statements and represent the change in the fair value of investment holdings during the period. Long Lived Asset Impairment Property and equipment, and intangible assets subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset (or asset group) may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. The amount of the impairment loss to be recorded is calculated by the excess over its fair value of the asset’s carrying value. Fair value is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. Inflation The overall effects of inflation on the Company’s business during fiscal 2021 have been significant relative to prior years. The Company monitors the prices it charges for its products and services on an ongoing basis and has been able to adjust its prices to take into account future changes in the rate of inflation. Contractual Obligations The Company had no long-term or short-term debt as of September 30, 2021 and there was no long-term debt facility in place at September 30, 2021. 22 20 In April 2020, a financial institution issued an irrevocable standby letter of credit (“letter of credit”) on behalf of the Company for the benefit of one of the Company’s insurance carriers. The maximum amount that can be drawn by the beneficiary under the letter of credit is $150,000. The letter of credit expires in April 2022, unless terminated earlier, and can be extended, as provided by the agreement. The Company intends to renew the letter of credit for as long as the Company does business with the beneficiary insurance carrier. The letter is collateralized by restricted cash of the same amount on any outstanding drawings. To date, no amounts have been drawn under the letter of credit. On August 28, 2020, the Company entered into a three year operating lease for property related to the manufacturing and warehousing of the Blaw-Knox paver business. The lease term is for the period September 1, 2020 through August 31, 2023. On October 9, 2020, the Company entered into an operating lease for additional warehousing space for paver inventory. The lease term is for one year beginning November 2020 with automatic one-year renewals.

(the “Company”) as of September 30, 2021 and 2020, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinion These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matters The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate. Allowance for Slow-moving and Obsolete Inventories As disclosed in Note 1 of the notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the Company records an estimated allowance for slow-moving and obsolete inventories to state the Company’s inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company relies on, among other things, past usage, sales experience, recent order and quote 25 23 activity, possible alternative uses, future sales forecasts, and its strategic business plan to develop the estimate. As a result of management’s assessment, the Company recorded an allowance for slow-moving and obsolete inventories of approximately $5,397,000 as of September 30, 2021. Auditing management’s estimate of the allowance for slow-moving and obsolete inventories, including those acquired in a business combination, involved subjective evaluation and high degree of auditor judgement due to significant assumptions involved in estimating future inventory turnover and sales. Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We obtained an understanding of the design of internal controls that address the risks of material misstatement relating to recording inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. We tested the accuracy and completeness of the underlying data used in calculating the inventory allowance, including testing of a sample of inventory usage transactions, and recomputed the allowance calculation. We also evaluated the Company’s ability to accurately estimate the assumptions used to develop the estimate by comparing historical allowance amounts to the history of actual inventory write-offs. Furthermore, we reviewed management’s business plan and forecasts of future sales. Revenue from Contracts with Customers where Revenue is Recognized over Time As disclosed in Note 1 of the notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the Company recognizes revenues from contracts with customers for the design, manufacture and sale of custom equipment over time when the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of the equipment. Control of the equipment transfers over time, as the equipment is unique to the specific contract and thus does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Company. Revenues and costs are recognized in proportion to actual labor costs incurred, as compared with total estimated labor costs expected to be incurred, during the entire contract. Changes to total estimated contract costs or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined. The Company recorded approximately $24,093,000 in revenue from custom equipment sales contracts during the year ended September 30, 2021. Auditing management’s estimate of total estimated labor costs expected to be incurred for the entire contract with respect to incomplete contracts, and the percentage of completion on those contracts as of the end of the year involved subjective evaluation and high degree of auditor judgement due to significant assumptions involved in estimating total labor costs to complete. Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We obtained an understanding of the design of internal controls that address the risks of material misstatement relating to recording revenue from contracts with customers where revenue is recognized over time. We tested the accuracy and completeness of the underlying data used in calculating the percentage of completion on incomplete contracts, including review of contracts, change orders, and underlying labor and material costs, and recomputed the percentage of completion on individual contracts. We also evaluated the Company’s ability to accurately estimate the assumptions used to develop the estimate by comparing historical cost estimates to actual costs on completed contracts. We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2001. /s/ MSL, P.A. MSL, P.A. Certified Public Accountants Orlando, Florida December 17, 2021 26 24 Part I.

Basic EPS is based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is based on the sum of the weighted- average number of shares outstanding plus common stock equivalents. The weighted-average shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options included in the diluted EPS calculation at September 30, 2021 were 236,000, which equates to 116,000 dilutive common stock equivalents. For the year ended September 30, 2020, the weighted-average shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options included in the diluted EPS calculation were 256,000, which equates to 125,000 dilutive common stock equivalents. Weighted-average shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, which were not included in the diluted EPS calculation because they were anti-dilutive, were zero in 2021 and 7,000 in 2020.

Fair value is determined using the quoted closing or latest bid prices for Level 1 investments and market standard valuation methodologies for Level 2 investments. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined by specific identification and are recognized as incurred in the consolidated income statements. Net changes in unrealized gains and losses are reported in the consolidated income statements in the current period. Fair Value Measurements The fair value of financial instruments is presented based upon a hierarchy of levels that prioritizes the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value of marketable equity securities (stocks), mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, government securities, and cash and money funds, are substantially based on quoted market prices (Level 1). Corporate bonds are valued using market standard valuation methodologies, including: discounted cash flow methodologies, and matrix pricing or other similar techniques. The inputs to these market standard valuation methodologies include, but are not limited to: interest rates, credit standing of the issuer or counterparty, industry sector of the issuer, coupon rate, call provisions, maturity, estimated duration and assumptions regarding liquidity and estimated future cash flows. In addition to bond characteristics, the valuation methodologies incorporate market data, such as actual trades completed, bids and actual dealer quotes, where such information is available. Accordingly, the estimated fair values are based on available market information and judgments about financial instruments (Level 2). Fair values of the Level 2 investments are provided by the Company’s professional investment management firms. From time to time the Company may transfer cash between its marketable securities portfolio and operating cash and cash equivalents. 32 30 The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s assets measured at fair value as of September 30, 2021: Equities Mutual Funds Exchange-Traded Funds Corporate Bonds Government Securities Cash and Money Funds Total Level 1 $14,734,000 10,357,000 9,458,000 - 30,999,000 4,575,000 $70,123,000 Fair Value Measurements Level 3 Level 2 $ - - - 24,853,000 - - $24,853,000 $ - - - - - - $ - Total $14,734,000 10,357,000 9,458,000 24,853,000 30,999,000 4,575,000 $94,976,000 Net unrealized gains reported during fiscal 2021 on trading securities still held as of September 30, 2021, were $1,302,000.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company liquidated approximately $17.0 million of its investments. The cash was primarily used to fund the acquisition of the Blaw-Knox assets, including inventory, fixed assets and related intellectual property, from Volvo CE. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, customer deposits and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these items. Foreign Currency Transactions Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in income and were not significant during the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. Risk Management Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash accounts in various domestic financial institutions which may from time to time exceed federally insured limits. Operating cash is retained in overnight sweep accounts which allow for offsets to treasury service charges.

Comprehensive Income For the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, other comprehensive income is equal to net income. Reporting Segments and Geographic Areas The Company has one reporting segment, equipment for the highway construction industry. Based on evaluation of the criteria of ASC 280 – Segment Reporting, including the nature of products and services, the nature of the production processes, the type of customers and the methods used to distribute products and services, the Company determined that its operating segments meet the requirements for aggregation. The Company designs, manufactures and sells asphalt plants and pavers, combustion systems and fluid heat transfer systems, for the highway construction industry and environmental and petrochemical markets. The Company’s products are manufactured at three facilities in the United States. The Company also services and sells spare parts for its equipment. For fiscal 2021 and 2020, total revenues of $85,278,000 and $77,420,000, and total long-term assets of $12,639,000 and $9,336,000, respectively, were attributed to the United States. Revenues are attributed to geographic areas based on the location of the assets producing the revenues. Customers with 10% (or greater) of Net Revenues No customer accounted for 10% or more of fiscal 2021 or 2020 net revenues. Subsequent Events Management has evaluated events occurring from September 30, 2021 through the date these consolidated financial statements were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for proper recording and disclosure herein. On November 1, 2021, by unanimous vote of the Board of Directors of the Company and pursuant to the Company’s By-Laws, John E. Elliott was removed as CEO of the Company. As a result, the 30,000 fully vested, outstanding Class B stock options issued under the 2009 Plan (see Note 11 – Shareholders’ Equity and Stock-Based Compensation) were cancelled.

GAAP prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial recognition, measurement, classification, and disclosure of uncertain tax positions. GAAP contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company’s uncertain tax position and determining the Company’s provision for taxes. Although the Company believes the reserves of unrecognized tax benefits (“UTB’s”) are reasonable, no assurance can be given that the final outcome of these matters will not be different from that which is reflected in the Company’s historical income tax provision and accruals. The Company adjusts these reserves in light of changing facts and circumstances. As of September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company had UTB’s of $150,000. There were no additional accruals of UTB’s during fiscal years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to UTB’s as a component of income tax expense. There were no additional accruals of interest expense nor penalties of significance during fiscal years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. It is reasonably possible that the amount of the UTB’s with respect to certain unrecognized tax positions will increase or decrease during the next 12 months. The Company does not expect the change to have a material effect on its results of operations or its financial position. The only expected potential reason for change would be the ultimate results stemming from any examinations by taxing authorities. If recognized, the entire amount of UTB’s would have an impact on the Company’s effective income tax rate. The effective income tax rate for fiscal 2021 was 12.5% versus 17.2% in fiscal 2020. In fiscal 2021, the Company generated $335,000 of federal research and development tax credits (“R&D Credits”), all of which were used in fiscal 2021. In fiscal 2020, the Company generated $421,000 of R&D Credits, all of which were used in fiscal 2020. There were no R&D Credits carryforwards as of September 30, 2021 or September 30, 2020. The Company files U.S. federal income tax returns, as well as Florida and Iowa income tax returns. The Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns filed for tax years prior to fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 are generally no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities due to the expiration of the statute of limitations. NOTE 7 - RETIREMENT BENEFITS The Company has a voluntary 401(k) employee benefit plan, which covers all eligible, domestic employees. The Company makes discretionary matching contributions subject to a maximum level, in accordance with the terms of the plan. The Company charged approximately $365,000 and $290,000 to expense under the provisions of the plan during the years ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. NOTE 8 - LONG-TERM DEBT AND ARRANGEMENTS WITH FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS The Company had no long-term debt outstanding at September 30, 2021 or 2020. The Company does not currently require a credit facility. As of September 30, 2021, total cash deposits with insurance companies covering collateral needs were $85,000. In April 2020, a financial institution issued an irrevocable standby letter of credit (“letter of credit”) on behalf of the Company for the benefit of one of the Company’s insurance carriers. The maximum amount that can be drawn by the beneficiary under the letter of credit is $150,000. The letter of credit expires in April 2022, unless terminated earlier, and can be extended, as provided by the agreement. The Company intends to renew the letter of credit for as long as the Company does business with the beneficiary insurance carrier. The letter is collateralized by restricted cash of the same amount on any outstanding drawings. To date, no amounts have been drawn under the letter of credit. 40 38 NOTE 9 - LEASES NOTE 9 - LEASES The Company leases certain equipment under non-cancelable operating leases.

Based upon that evaluation, the President and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Because of inherent limitations, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of such disclosure controls and procedures are met and no evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company has been detected. As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, the Company conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(b). Based on this evaluation, the Company’s President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2021. Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report. The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) for the Company. The Company’s internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and Board of Directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of all internal control systems no matter how well designed. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the preparation and presentation of financial statements. Furthermore, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of a change in circumstances or conditions. In order to ensure that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective, management regularly assesses such controls and did so most recently as of September 30, 2021. This assessment was based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management believes the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2021. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting The Company’s management, including the President and Chief Financial Officer, has reviewed the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the year ended September 30, 2021 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. 43 41 ITEM 9B OTHER INFORMATION None PART III ITEM 10 DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE The information required by this Item 10 is incorporated herein by reference to the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement for the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws, each of which are incorporated by reference as exhibits to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of which this Exhibit 4.2 is a part and to the provisions of the Delaware General Corporate Law (the “DGCL”). Refer to complete copies of our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws, and the applicable provisions of the DGCL for additional information. General Our authorized capital stock consists of 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.10 per share (our “Common Stock”), 12,338,845 shares of which were issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2021; 6,000,000 shares of Class B Stock, par value $0.10 per share (our “Class B Stock”), 2,318,857 shares of which were issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2021; and 300,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.10 per share (our “Preferred Stock”), none of which were issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2020. Under our Certificate of Incorporation, our board of directors (our “Board”) has the authority to issue such shares of our Common Stock and our Preferred Stock in one or more classes or series, with such voting powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, if any, and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, as shall be provided for in a resolution or resolutions adopted by our Board and filed as designations. Rights of our Common Stock and our Class B Stock Voting Rights Each share of our Class B Stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote on all matters submitted to stockholders, except that holders of our Common Stock have the right, voting as a class, to elect approximately 25 percent of our Board and the holders of our Class B Stock have the right, voting as a class, to elect approximately 75 percent of our Board. Where adjustment is required, the holders of our Class B Stock are entitled to elect 75 percent of our Board calculated to the nearest whole number rounding any fractional number of five-tenths or more to the next highest whole number, and the holders of our Common Stock will be entitled to elect the balance of the directors. Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that holders of our Common Stock and our Class B Stock, each such class voting separately as a class, shall be required on: (i) (ii) any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other corporation; or any sale, lease, exchange, or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets to or with any other person except where such merger or transaction is with a majority-owned subsidiary of ours; or any dissolution of us; any additional issuance of shares of our Class B Stock other than in connection with stock splits and stock dividends on shares of our Class B Stock or the exercise of stock options by holders of our Class B Stock; (iii) any modification, alteration or amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation; and (iv) any other matters requiring a separate vote by classes provided for under the DGCL. 48 46 Any action that can be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken by written consent in lieu of the meeting if we receive consents signed by stockholders having the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to approve the action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote on the matter were present. Dividends and Distributions (Including Distributions upon Liquidation) Holders of our Common Stock and our Class B Stock are entitled to receive cash dividends at the same rate if and when declared by our Board out of funds legally available therefor, subject to the dividend and liquidation rights of any Preferred Stock that may be issued and outstanding. With respect to distributions other than cash dividends, all other distributions, including stock dividends and all other distributions and rights including distributions upon liquidation, our Common Stock and our Class B Stock will rank equally and have the same rights, except that stock dividends and stock splits of our Common Stock and our Class B Stock will be payable or made to the holders of each such class only in the shares of such class.

Accordingly, there is no trading market for shares of our Class B Stock.

Any transfer of shares of our Class B Stock not permitted under our Certificate of Incorporation will result in the conversion of the transferee’s shares of our Class B stock into shares of our Common Stock, effective as of the day on which certificates representing such shares are presented for transfer on our books. Conversion Rights Applicable to Our Class B Stock Our Class B Stock will be convertible on a share-for-share basis at all times other than while our stock transfer books are closed for any purpose. Any shares surrendered for conversion while the stock transfer books are closed will be 49 converted immediately upon reopening the stock transfer books as of the day such shares were surrendered for conversion. Holders of our Common Stock are not entitled to exchange or otherwise convert shares of our Common Stock into shares of our Class B Stock. Shares of our Class B stock are also subject to conversion in the event of presentation for transfer to other than a Permitted Transferee, as outlined above, and automatic conversion as outlined below. Automatic Conversion of Our Class B Stock All shares of our outstanding Class B Stock will be converted into shares of our Common Stock on a share-for-share basis automatically and without further action of our Board or the holders thereof if at any time (i) the number of outstanding shares of our Class B Stock as reflected on our stock transfer books falls below 100,000 shares, or (ii) our Board and the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our Class B Stock approve the conversion of all of the outstanding shares of our Class B Stock into our Common Stock. In the event of such conversion, certificates formerly representing outstanding shares of our Class B Stock will thereafter be deemed to represent a like number of shares of our Common Stock. Other Our currently outstanding Common Stock does not carry any preemptive rights enabling a holder to subscribe for or receive shares of stock of any class or any other securities convertible into shares of our stock. We deliver to the holders of our Class B Stock the same information and reports which we deliver to holders of our Common Stock. We expect our Common Stock to remain registered under the Exchange Act but do not intend to register our Class B Stock under the Exchange Act unless such registration is required by law. Transfer Agent The transfer agent and registrar for our Common Stock is Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company. Preferred Stock Our Board may, without further action by our stockholders, from time to time, direct the issuance of shares of our Preferred Stock in series and may, at the time of issuance, determine the rights, preferences and limitations of each series. Satisfaction of any dividend preferences of outstanding shares of our Preferred Stock would reduce the amount of funds available for the payment of dividends on shares of our Common Stock. Holders of shares of our Preferred Stock may be entitled to receive a preference payment in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of us before any payment is made to the holders of shares of our Common Stock. Under certain circumstances, the issuance of shares of our Preferred Stock may render more difficult or tend to discourage a merger, tender offer or proxy contest, the assumption of control by a holder of a large block of our securities or the removal of incumbent management. Our Board, without stockholder approval, may issue shares of our Preferred Stock with voting and conversion rights which could adversely affect holders of shares of our Common Stock. Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation, our Bylaws, and the DGCL Certain provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws, as well as certain provisions of the DGCL, may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, deter, or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interests, including attempts that might result in a premium being paid over the market price of the shares held by stockholders. These provisions contained in our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws include the items described below. • Class B Stockholders Elect 75% of our Board. Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that the holders of our Class B Stockholders are entitled to elect approximately 75% of our Board. Provisions of this type may serve to delay or prevent an acquisition of us or a change in our directors and officers. 48 50 • Approval of Certain Actions. Our Certificate of Incorporation provide that certain mergers, consolidations, sales of assets, and other matters be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock and the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding Class B Stock, in each case voting separately as a class. • Special Meetings of Stockholders. Our Bylaws provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by the President, by the President or Secretary at the request of a majority of our Board, or at the request in writing of the holders of a majority of the shares of our stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at any meeting at which our directors are elected. • Stockholder Advance Notice Procedures. Our Bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to present proposals before a meeting of stockholders or to nominate candidates for election as directors at a meeting of stockholders must provide timely notice in writing to the Secretary and also specify requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These provisions may delay or preclude stockholders from bringing matters before a meeting of our stockholders or from making nominations for directors at a meeting of stockholders, which could delay or deter takeover attempts or changes in our management. • No Cumulative Voting. Our Certificate of Incorporation does not include a provision for cumulative voting for directors. Under cumulative voting, a minority stockholder holding a sufficient percentage of a class of shares could be able to ensure the election of one or more directors. • Undesignated Preferred Stock. Because our Board has the power to establish the preferences and rights of the shares of any additional series of our Preferred Stock, it may afford holders of any Preferred Stock preferences, powers, and rights, including voting and dividend rights, senior to the rights of holders of our Common Stock, which could adversely affect the holders of our Common Stock and could discourage a takeover of us even if a change of control of Gencor would be beneficial to the interests of our stockholders. These and other provisions contained in our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws are expected to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our Board. However, these provisions could delay or discourage transactions involving an actual or potential change in control of us, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then current prices. Such provisions could also limit the ability of stockholders to remove current management or approve transactions that stockholders may deem to be in their best interests. In addition, we are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL. Section 203 of the DGCL prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the person became an interested stockholder, unless: • The board of directors of the corporation approved the business combination or other transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder prior to the date of the business combination or other transaction; • Upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the person becoming an interested stockholder, the person owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the number of shares outstanding, shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers of the corporation and shares issued under which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or • on or subsequent to the date the person became an interested stockholder, the board of directors of the corporation approved the business combination and the stockholders of the corporation authorized the business combination at an annual or special meeting of stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation that is not owned by the interested stockholder. 51 49 A “business combination” includes mergers, asset sales, and other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Subject to certain exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within the prior three years did own, 15% or more of a corporation’s voting stock. Section 203 of the DGCL could depress our stock price and delay, discourage, or prohibit transactions not approved in advance by our Board, such as takeover attempts that might otherwise involve the payment to our stockholders of a premium over the market price of our Common Stock. 52 50 GENCOR INDUSTRIES, INC.
