SUMMARY: Gen-set sales in North America climbed 6% in Q3 2018 over Q2 2018, with the focus switching from larger industrial standby’s and construction site power generation earlier in the year to residential standby sales as part of winter-preparedness.
SUMMARY: Gen-set sales continued the growth trend in Q1 2018 with a 2% increase over Q4 2017 levels. We continue to see increased demand for residential standby after last year’s severe weather season as well as the ramp-up towards the construction and camping seasons.

SUMMARY. During Q2 2018, the economy remained stable and economic conditions in the region still are favorable, most industries are doing well, and the short-term outlook remains positive to flat for most market segments. We expect such strong conditions to last at least another 12 months. At the same time, there will be some minor differences among
market segments, especially those that are consumer oriented.
