Smith (540) 439-3266 (2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no, identify report(s). |X| Yes |_|No (3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof? |X| Yes |_| No If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made. The Registrant has preliminarily determined that its unaudited total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was about $6,893,000 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007 total revenue of about $8,490,000. Unaudited pre-tax income for the three month period ended March 31, 2008 has preliminarily determined to be about $104,000, as compared to pre-tax income of about $639,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2007. As of May 11, 2008, the Registrant's unaudited production backlog was approximately $12,432,000, as compared to approximately $11,215,000 at the same date in 2007. The Company traditionally does not include projects in its production backlog calculation until the customer signs a complete contract. The Company also maintains a regularly occurring repeat customer business, which should be considered in addition to the ordered production backlog described above. Historically, this regularly occurring repeat customer business is equal to approximately $7,000,000 (unaudited) annually. In addition, the Company has approximately $8,000,000 (unaudited) of pending contracts not included in the unaudited production backlog. The Company estimates a very high probability of successfully securing these contracts. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Smith-Midland Corporation -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Name of Registrant as Specified in Charter) has caused this notification to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
