Hammond has passed away after a long battle with lung disease a place he had moved to after retiring in Blue Earth Hammond was mayor of Blue Earth for 14 years Hammond had been active in many organizations and boards in Blue Earth and the area and remained so even after he had moved to Iowa once related that it was a total act of fate that he ended up moving to Blue Earth in 1976 to live and work Hammond tells how after high school graduation – and being named an All-Second Team center on the high school basketball team – he went to the University of Iowa “I worked for a year and a half for the Iowa Insurance Department in Des Moines,” Hammond recalled in the 2011 story “My job was to field complaint calls from upset members of the public and act as a go-between with the insurance companies He said back then that he was on a canoe trip on the Turkey River in northwest Iowa when he was hit with an epiphany and all the small towns had their football field lights on just like the movie ‘Friday Night Lights.’ I suddenly realized I really wanted to live in a small town.” Hammond then decided to send out his resume to law firms in county seat towns of around 5,000 “I thought that would be a nice size city to live in plus I wanted a town with three law firms,” he said in the article “I sent out resumes to every law firm in every county seat that size from Des Moines to Minneapolis.” he happened to have three copies of his resume left over he sent them to three law firms in a county seat city that was slightly smaller than his target size – Blue Earth “The town fit my criteria because it had three law firms,” he said in the article “The population was under my target level He got a response – and a job offer – from Arvid Wendland and Don Callaghan’s law firm in Blue Earth “It was Arvid and Don who stressed community service,” Rob told the Register back in 2011 “So I got involved in the community.” Over the years he was active on the United Fund board Blue Earth Industrial Service Corporation (BEISCO) Sertoma Club and the Blue Earth Chamber of Commerce but more can be found in his obituary elsewhere in this issue leaving the law firm and beginning a long career at Bevcomm in Blue Earth “I started with the title of comptroller and attorney,” Hammond said “It changed to general counsel and chief operating officer.” He did all the legal work for the company and created contracts with other telephone companies contracts that mainly had to do with the development of cellular phone service That included contracts for land easements for cellular towers and underground fiber optic lines It also had to do with legal agreements with 11 other telephone/communications companies Hammond had one definite pastime – golf “You can usually find me on the golf course four or five nights a week during the summer,” he admitted in the 2011 story the other thing he was extremely passionate about was doing whatever he could to make Blue Earth a great community to live in That includes helping create the Blue Earth Community Foundation The story about Rob Hammond was in the Jan 2011 issue of the Register because later that month he was going to be honored as the Chamber of Commerce Community Service Award recipient Hammond says he was somewhat shocked at the honor “I was surprised when Shelly (Greimann Chamber executive director) told me I was going to be given the award,” Hammond said “I certainly didn’t do it (community service) for any award I just wanted to serve where I could.” The community of Blue Earth is pretty lucky that Rob

leading manufacturer of dry-type transformers power quality products and related magnetics today announced its financial results for the first quarter 2025 “We are pleased to report that same‑quarter sales grew 5.6% to $201 million underscoring the resilience of our business in a period marked by trade‑tariff uncertainty,” said Adrian Thomas “While we experienced lower custom shipments this quarter we continue to see strong demand in certain markets and we finished with a 17.7% increase in backlog over Q4 2024 When combined with our new factory coming online faster than planned we can anticipate a favorable shift towards more custom product shipments in the latter half of the year.” market grew slightly year-over-year but slowed in the first quarter of 2025 versus the fourth quarter of 2024 mainly due to lower induction heating (“IHI”) while sales in February and March recovered to expected levels Sales of stock products grew versus the fourth quarter Private label sales grew considerably year- over-year with growth led by stronger sales to data centre applications The Canadian market shipped 6.9% more than the first quarter of 2024 but also slowed versus the fourth quarter of 2024 also driven by the timing of some large custom projects 2025 backlog increased by 18.9% as compared to Quarter 1 due to large projects driven mostly by data centre activity The Company’s backlog has increased 17.7% from Quarter 4 sales momentum picked up in February and March notably driven by increasing standard product shipments The quarterly gross margin was lower than Quarter 4 2024 at 31.5% and consequently the adjusted EBITDA margin was 15.4%,” said Richard Vollering “Working capital requirements increased in the quarter mainly as a result of a build-up of raw materials to meet upcoming project delivery requirements as well as typically higher first quarter accrual disbursements.” The Company saw a slight decrease in its gross margin rate for Quarter 1 2025 which was 31.5% compared to Quarter 1 The decline in gross margin reflects increased material and labour costs and a shift in product mix to relatively more standard products The company announced a price increase in February which began to take effect for catalogue-based products in April of 2025 Total selling and distribution expenses were $22,320 in Quarter 1 2025 or 11.1% of sales versus $21,067 in Quarter 1 The year-over-year increase in selling and distribution expenses is a result of higher variable freight and commission expenses attributed to the large increase in sales General and administrative expenses were $3,745 or 1.9% of sales for Quarter 1 2024 expenses of $29,139 or 15.3% of sales The decrease is mainly due to recovery of share-based compensation costs offset by ongoing strategic investments in people and resources to support our growth strategies as well as supporting higher levels of general business activity 2025 finished at $26,222 compared to net earnings of $7,952 in Quarter 1 The increase in the quarterly earnings from operations is primarily a result of higher sales offset by a lower gross margin rate and a recovery of share-based compensation expenses offset by higher selling 2025 was $40,697 versus $14,999 in Quarter 1 Adjusted for foreign exchange loss/gain and share-based compensation expenses adjusted EBITDA for Quarter 1 2025 was $30,916 versus $30,972 in Quarter 1 Basic earnings per share were $2.20 for Quarter 1 Adjusted for foreign exchange loss/gain and share-based compensation expenses adjusted earnings per share were $1.60 for Quarter 1 The Board of Directors of HPS declared a quarterly cash dividend of twenty-seven and a half cents ($0.275) per Class A Subordinate Voting Share of HPS and a quarterly cash
