Third Quarter Results
Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 were $106.3 million, an increase of 5.7% from $100.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2014.

Aerospace and defense decreased 0.3% mainly due to a decrease in defense and distribution. Gross margin for the third quarter was $41.7 million compared to $38.5 million for the same period last year. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 39.2% in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 compared to 38.3% for the same period last year.
SG&A for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 was $19.3 million, an increase of $1.0 million from $18.3 million for the same period last year.
