"We continued to face market headwinds during the third quarter of 2016, which includes two of our seasonally weakest months of the year��"July and August. Those two months were unusually soft this year, as we continued to experience headwinds from project deferrals, scope reductions and maintenance deferrals, coupled with the adverse impact on business of severe flooding in Louisiana. However, activity levels picked up sharply in the month of September. In fact, September was our strongest month of the year," said Ted Owen, Team’s president and chief executive officer. "Our strong finish to the quarter, and indeed our activity levels through the first month of the fourth quarter, gives us encouragement that we are seeing the first signs of more normalized market activity."
