Cohesant Technologies Inc., the northwest-side company that replaces and services utility pipes, reported a $53,141 loss in its first quarter ended Feb. 28—its first red ink since 1997.
Revenue fell 4.4 percent, to $6.2 million.

Most of the setback was attributed to a 44-percent decline in pipeline-replacement revenue in its CIPAR subsidiary, said Cohesant, which is traded on NASDAQ. The subsidiary’s franchising and leasing division also lost money lining pipes.
