Dow Jones Description

Our Company, Kaydon Corporation, is a leading designer and manufacturer of custom-engineered, performance-critical products, supplying a broad and diverse group of alternative-energy, industrial, aerospace, medical and electronic equipment and aftermarket customers. This diversification means that demand for our products depends, in part, upon a wide range of general economic conditions, which affect our markets in varying ways from quarter to quarter. The global recessionary conditions that impacted the economy during the second half of 2008 continued during the first half of 2009, reducing demand for our products and resulting in sales volume declines in each of our businesses. The adverse macroeconomic conditions have resulted in customers acting with caution. In addition, historically unfavorable credit markets continue to adversely affect end-user capital project spending and the associated customer demand for our products, resulting in a decline in orders and requests for deferred delivery. While worldwide business conditions remain very challenging, we have seen preliminary indications that economic conditions are stabilizing, albeit at cyclically low levels. We believe these challenging economic conditions will likely continue through the remainder of 2009, which will continue to negatively impact end-user spending and our customers demand for our products. ...
