Forward Guidance

Kadant expects the third quarter will be the weakest quarter of the year and anticipates an improvement in business activity in the fourth quarter assuming economies continue to re-open and consumer demand strengthens. However, given the current uncertainty surrounding the timing of the recovery in markets around the world, the company will not be providing guidance at this time.
