Gencor Industries Inc (NASDAQ: GENC) is a highway construction equipment company that designs and manufactures asphalt plants and pavers sold primarily to highway contractors. Revenue comes from transactional equipment sales, with some contracts recognized on a percentage-of-completion basis and others at point of delivery, plus parts sales. The company was formed in 1968 through a merger of Mechtron Corporation, General Combustion Inc., and Genco Manufacturing Inc., reincorporated in Delaware in 1969, and adopted the Gencor Industries name in 1987. Demand is driven by federal and state highway funding, replacement cycles for existing plants, and a trend toward larger, more efficient equipment. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, providing $110 billion for domestic highways, bridges, and roads, was scheduled to expire September 30, 2026 as of the FY2025 10-K filing. No single customer exceeded 10% of net revenue in the year ended September 30, 2025. Net income for FY2025 was $15,661,000, or $1.07 per diluted share, versus $14,558,000, or $0.99 per diluted share, in FY2024.
