  • Gross profits for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 of $5,450,004 and $10,972,953, respectively, were more than double gross profits for the three ($2,124,812) and nine months ($5,106,664) ended September 30, 2020. Gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was 31%, up from gross margin of 22% for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Gross margins also increased to 27% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 from 21% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 due to the Company's hard work navigating and controlling pricing during the rising raw material prices and shortages and now the reducing raw material prices, while constantly focusing on improving efficiencies for new product lines and acquisitions. Additionally, the manufacturing equipment bought at the end of January 2021 also improved automation at one of AEP's facilities, with the ability for improved efficiencies within our core product lines.

  • The Company recorded a net income of $2,793,913 and $4,494,480 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to a net income of $419,589 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and a net loss of $122,771 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
