We had forecast net income of $12.9 million or $1.02 per share. Revenues of $152.8 million increased 30.5% on a year-over-year basis and grew 15.2% compared to the prior quarter. The estimated impact from raw material volatility during the quarter resulted in a $1.7 million headwind that compressed gross margin by 1.1% to 20.2%. Gross profit of $30.9 million was modestly higher than our estimate of $30.1 million although SG&A and interest expenses were also greater than our projections.

Growing order backlog. Orders during the quarter resulted in a record backlog of $446.7 million as of March 31 and represented a 9.4% increase compared to the prior quarter and a 59.2% increase on a year-over-year basis. Backlog pounds increased 3.9% during the second quarter to approximately 14.1 million pounds and increased 33.1% compared to the prior year period driven by strong demand in the aerospace and industrial gas turbine markets.
