Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended September 30, 2006.

The balance sheet at September 30, 2005 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Gencor Industries, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2005.

Note 2- Marketable Securities

Marketable securities are categorized as trading securities and stated at market value. Market value is determined using the quoted closing or latest bid prices. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined by specific identification and are recognized as incurred in the statement of income. Net unrealized gains and losses are reported in the statement of operations and represent the change in the market value of investment holdings during the period. At December 31, 2005, Marketable securities consisted of $5.9 in municipal bonds and $27.6 in equity stocks.

Note 3 – Inventories

The components of inventory consist of the following:

Note 4 – Earnings Per Share Data

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated.

Note 5 – Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The total comprehensive income (loss) for the three-months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was $166 and ($218), respectively. Total comprehensive income (loss) differs from net income (loss) due to gains and losses resulting from foreign currency translation, which are reflected separately in the shareholders’ equity section of the balance sheet under the caption “Accumulated other comprehensive loss.” Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in income.

Note 6 – Income From Investees and Subsequent Event

The Company owns a 45% interest in Carbontronics LLC and a 25% interest in Carbontronics Fuels LLC and Carbontronics II, LLC. These interests were earned as part of value of risk on contracts to build four synthetic fuel production plants during 1998. The Company has no basis in these equity investments or requirement to provide future funding. The operations of Carbontronics LLC consist of the receipt of contingent payments from the sales of the plants and the distribution thereof to its members. Carbontronics LLC has no other significant operations or assets. The operations of Carbontronics II, LLC consist of the receipt of royalty payments from the plants and the distribution thereof to its members. Carbontronics II, LLC has no other significant operations or assets. Any income arising from these investments is dependent upon tax credits (adjusted for operating losses at the fuel plants) being generated as a result of synthetic fuel production, which will be recorded as received. The Company received no distributions in the quarter ended December 31, 2005, nor the quarter ended December 31, 2004. The Company did receive distributions of $44,238, $13,428 and $1,526, during the fiscal years 2005, 2003, and 2002, respectively.

Table of Contents

On January 19, 2006, Gencor received $10.0 million in cash distributions from these investees for the third quarter of calendar year 2005. Net income arising from this investment is dependent upon tax credits generated as a result of synthetic fuel production, which is recorded as received. These distributions are subject to state and Federal income taxes.

Future distributions from these entities depend upon the production of these operations continuing to qualify for tax credits under Section 29 of the Internal Revenue Code and the ability to economically produce and market synthetic fuel produced by the plants. One of the contingencies related to future benefits from these entities is based on the average price of crude oil. Per a provision of Section 29, if the average price of crude oil reaches a certain level, the tax credits will terminate. The recent escalation in oil prices raises serious doubt on the continued availability of tax credits under Section 29 for the future. If oil prices remain at the current levels or increase, the tax credits could phase-out or terminate. The existing tax credit legislation is scheduled to expire at the end of calendar year 2007. Any one of the above eventualities may interrupt, reduce, or terminate further distributions.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

Net sales for the quarters ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were $11.7 million and $9.1 million, respectively. Domestic sales during the first quarter of fiscal 2006 were $10.8 million reflecting an increase of $2.1 million from year ago levels. Domestic sales were higher than the prior year’s quarter due the general improvement in the construction industry, partially due to the passage of the highway bill in the summer of 2005. Foreign sales increased $.5 million from the prior year. The Company’s revenues are concentrated in the asphalt-related business and subject to a seasonal slow-down during the third and fourth quarters of the calendar year.

Gross margins as a percent of net sales remained at 25% for both years. Higher absorption due to higher volume in 2005 was offset by an increase in the LIFO reserve of $75.

Selling and administrative expense increased $712 due to higher wages, higher commissions based on volume, and higher legal costs for the quarter.

The Company owns a 45% interest in Carbontronics LLC and a 25% interest in Carbontronics Fuels LLC and Carbontronics II LLC. These interests were earned as part of value of risk on contracts to build four synthetic fuel production plants during 1998. The Company has no basis in these equity investments or requirement to provide future funding. Any income arising from these investments is dependent upon tax credits (adjusted for operating losses at the fuel plants) being generated as a result of synthetic fuel production, which will be recorded as received.

The Company did receive distributions of $44,238, $13,428 and $1,526, during the fiscal years 2005, 2003, and 2002, respectively.

Any one of the above eventualities may interrupt, reduce, or terminate further distributions.

Interest expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 decreased by $72 from the first quarter of fiscal 2005, reflecting a decrease in debt balance. The increase in value of marketable securities is a result of net unrealized gains during the period.

Income tax expense increased by $.2 million from year ago levels, reflecting the increase in pre-tax income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On August 1, 2003, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement with PNC Bank, N.A. The Agreement established a three year revolving $20 million credit facility. The facility provides for advances based on accounts receivable, inventory and real estate. The facility includes a $2 million limit on letters of credit. At December 31, 2005, the Company had $.3 million of letters of credit outstanding. The interest rate at December 31, 2005, is at prime less .25% (7.00%) and subject to change based upon the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The Company is required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.1:1. There are no required repayments as long as there are no defaults and there is adequate eligible collateral. Substantially, all of Company’s assets are pledged as security under the Agreement. The borrowings under the previous credit agreements were paid in full with cash and proceeds from this new Revolving Credit and Security Agreement.

As of December 31, 2005, the Company had $5.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, and $33.5 million in marketable securities. The marketable securities are invested in stocks and bonds through a professional investment advisor. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of securities, it is possible that changes in these risk factors could have an adverse material impact on the Company’s results of operations. The securities may be liquidated at any time into cash and cash equivalents.

Seasonality

The Company is concentrated in the asphalt-related business and is subject to a seasonal slow-down during the third and fourth quarters of the calendar year. Traditionally, the Company’s customers do not purchase new equipment for shipment during the summer and fall months to avoid disrupting their peak season for highway construction and repair work. This slow-down often results in lower reported sales and earnings and or losses during the first and fourth quarters of the Company’s fiscal year ended September 30.

Forward-Looking Information

This Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which represent the Company’s expectations and beliefs, including, but not limited to, statements concerning gross margins, sales of the Company’s products and future financing plans. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond the Company’s control. Actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of important factors, including the financial condition of the Company’s customers, changes in the economic and competitive environments and demand for the Company’s products.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company operates manufacturing facilities and sales offices principally located in the United States and the United Kingdom. The Company is subject to business risks inherent in non-U.S. activities, including political and economic uncertainty, import and export limitations, and market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s principal currency exposure against the U.S. dollar is the British pound. Periodically, the Company will use derivative financial instruments consisting primarily of interest rate hedge agreements to manage exposures to interest rate changes. The Company’s objective in managing its exposure to changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt is to limit their impact on earnings and cash flow and reduce its overall borrowing costs.

At December 31, 2005, the Company had no debt outstanding. Under the Revolving Credit and Security Agreement, substantially all of the Company’s borrowings will bear interest at variable rates based upon the prime rate.

The Company’s Marketable securities are invested in stocks and bonds through a professional investment advisor. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of securities, it is possible that changes in these risk factors could have an adverse material impact on the Company’s results of operations or equity.

The Company’s sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk excludes accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities because of the short-term maturity of such instruments. The analysis does not consider the effect on other variables such as changes in sales volumes or management’s actions with respect to levels of capital expenditures, future acquisitions or planned divestures, all of which could be significantly influenced by changes in interest rates.
