LANCASTER, NY--(Marketwired - June 21, 2016) - Ecology and Environment, Inc., ("E & E" or the "Company") (
Year-to-date earnings from U.S. operations have been offset by weak global and regional economic trends that have had a negative impact on net revenues and operating results in South America.
"Domestic revenues are tracking on pace with last year and we continue to pursue strategic growth opportunities in the U.S.," said Gerard A. Gallagher III, E & E president and CEO. "In South America, our Chilean company has contributed steady profits this year. We curbed costs in Brazil, but the economic downturn in Brazil and regional trends in the energy and mining markets in Peru have depressed our overall results. Management continues to evaluate and take measures to adjust to the difficult economy in South America."
E & E is listed on the NASDAQ under the symbol EEI and the information contained in this press release is available on the Company's website at www.ene.com.
