The Company reported net sales of $445.4 million, reflecting an increase of 15.1% YoY primarily due to higher finished product selling prices for proteins and bakery finished products. Net income of $32.4 million, or $0.27 per share, was higher compared to $28.6 million, or $0.24 per share, in Q1 FY 2012, predominantly resulting from higher finished product prices followed by higher raw material volumes in both Rendering and Bakery Segments.

However, we are pleased with our sequential quarterly progress as we operate in an environment that is distinctly different from last year. When compared to Q4 FY 2013, profits in Q1 FY 2014 improved at Water Resources, Inliner, Heavy Civil and Mineral Exploration. We expect that our performance will improve as the year progresses."

McKim, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Clean Harbors. "Our margins in the quarter were significantly affected by integration-related costs and non-cash items related to acquisition accounting. As a result of the acquisition, we have realigned the Company into five new reportable segments. During the first quarter, solid performances in our Technical Services, Industrial and Field Services, and SK Environmental Services segments were more than offset by greater-than-expected weakness in our Oil Re-refining and Recycling, and Oil and Gas Field Services segments."
