Market Conditions and Future Outlook
Despite a slight decrease in the firm order backlog, which is currently at $25.1 million down from $27.1 million, the company continues to thrive.

As Taylor Devices enters the second half of fiscal year 2026, they are poised to expand their focus on opportunities where their customized engineering solutions are essential. The recent completion of a new Development Lab will enable them to better serve clients across their three main markets: Aerospace and Defense, Structural, and Industrial.
