Waukesha-based Generac manufactures generators and engine powered products. It closed yesterday on a purchase agreement to acquire the equity of Italian mobile light tower supplier Tower Light Srl.
Generac reported this week second quarter net income of $28.25 million, or 40 cents per diluted share. It was more than triple the company’s net income of $9.3 million, or 14 cents per diluted share, a year ago. Net sales were up 45 percent, to $346.7 million.
The company withdrew a secondary offering of about 11.5 million common shares in December 2012 due to market conditions.
