MESSAGE FROM THE DIVISION PRESIDENT

Hello Team,

I hope each of you and your families are doing well and have had a great summer so far. It has been an eventful year thus far, as the fourth quarter of our fiscal year is on its way. Our past Division President, Russell Nash, retired June 30th after a lengthy career here at William R. Nash. Many thanks go out to him for his dedication to our organization and helping us become a leader in the mechanical contracting industry. Thanks Russell!

I have changed roles within the organization by taking over as Division President after Russell’s departure. I want to thank all of our employee owners for trusting me in my new role, as I will always strive to make decisions that are in the best interests of the company. I want to thank my father, William R. Nash, Jr., for giving me an opportunity in 1996 to become a full-time employee. I appreciate all that he did over the years to help me move along within my career and get to where I am today. I also want to thank Mike Pruiett and George Wininger for all their leadership over the years. You both helped me tremendously along the way and I would not be in this position without your insight. Thank you!

Our organization performed well financially through the end of the third quarter of this year. Although we are behind on our revenue projections, we are ahead on our gross profit and COP performance. With the addition of some key projects to our backlog, we look to be in good shape for the next fiscal year. Our team continues to be laser-focused on safety, as we had another quarter of good results both in the field and behind the wheel of our vehicles. Excellent job team! Let’s keep the momentum going!

Thanks to all of our employee-owners for completing this year’s engagement survey. This survey helps our leadership team determine where we stand in many areas within this organization and allows us to set forth goals and initiatives to help strengthen our organization. Through your engagement and completion of the survey, we can see how we perform year after year with the goal of becoming better each year.

If you have any questions, comments or concerns regarding our organization, please feel free to reach out to me either by phone at 786-402-1052, or by email at ryan.nash@wrnash.com .

Enjoy the rest of the newsletter!

SAFETY UPDATES

Equipment Inspections: The First Line of Defense

Incidents rarely happen without warning, they announce themselves through worn cables, faulty valves, or missing guards. Skipping inspections is like turning a blind eye to those warnings. At WRN, equipment that’s not inspected is equipment that can fail, and failures injure people. Daily checks aren’t paperwork; they’re protection. Sharp tools, stable lifts, stable ladders, and pressure-tested hoses keep our team safe.

When something’s off, report it immediately.

Silence and delay are just as dangerous as the hazard itself. Stay sharp, inspect. Report
