“We are very pleased with the record results for the third quarter 2014 as they once again validate our previous comments that we expected our revenues for 2014 to more than double relative to Allied’s 2013 pre-acquisition revenues and for the Globe acquisition to be accretive to earnings,” commented Dick Warzala, Chairman and CEO of Allied Motion. "... Also, on a year to date basis, we experienced growth in our served markets of Aerospace and Defense, Medical, and Vehicle, while our Industrial and Electronics markets were flat. With the acquisition of Globe Motors in late 2013, the current year has truly been transformative for Allied Motion and in late September, we updated our long term strategy and set new goals and objectives to continuously grow and improve our profitability in the future."
