We believe this sustained growth demonstrates that our businesses are effectively executing on the very favorable long-term demand trends across our core markets. Sales grew as a result of the increasing momentum of our recently launched truck mirror program and strengthening demand from distributors and aftermarket customers. ACT Research, a commercial vehicle and transportation markets research firm, estimates that Class-8 truck builds will reach 220,000 in 2022, an increase of 12% over 2021, and projects that 265,000 new Class-8 trucks will be built in 2023. Moreover, the increase in new automotive product launches, including several electric vehicle launches, drove an approximately 16% increase in sales of returnable transport packaging products in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021. We expect demand for returnable transport packaging to continue to increase throughout the remainder of this year and beyond, as the number of planned new vehicle launches grows to 53 in 2023 and 63 in 2024, according to BofA Global Research.&#8221;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&#8220;Our backlog at the end of the first quarter of 2022 reached $85.8 million, an increase of 23% over the backlog at the end of the first quarter of 2021. The increase in backlog was primarily due to increased demand from our commercial vehicle and truck accessories customers and reflects a return to strong demand for our products across most of our core markets.&#8221;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&#8220;Gross margin in the first quarter of 2022 was negatively impacted by raw material costs. The growth rate of raw material costs accelerated in the first quarter of 2022. For example, the cost of nickel increased by 41% between the first quarter of 2021 and the first quarter of 2022; the cost of most common forms of cold-rolled steel increased by 21%, and copper and zinc costs increased by 22% and 33%, respectively. We have initiated new rounds of price increases for our customers in each of our businesses in order to mitigate the impact of these most recent cost increases. These new prices go into effect in May and June of this year.&#8221;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">Mr. Vlak continued, &#8220;In the first quarter of 2022, our balance sheet reflected the growth of our business, with increases in both accounts receivables and inventories. We continued to navigate a rapidly evolving operating environment and to prioritize meeting the strong and growing demand from our customers by increasing our inventories and adding new suppliers. We expect to see inventories move to a normalized level in the second half of the year. Further, our accounts receivable days and inventory turns both moved in the right direction in the first quarter of 2022.&#8221;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp; </p> <table style="border-spacing:0;font:10pt times new roman;width:100%" cellpadding="0"> <tr style="height:15px"> <td class="hpbhr">&nbsp;</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td style="BORDER-BOTTOM: black 1px solid; TEXT-INDENT: 0px;"></td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td><p style='page-break-after: always'></p></td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td>&nbsp;</td></tr></table> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp; </p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">Mr. Vlak concluded, &#8220;We are optimistic about the remainder of this year and our longer-term future. Over the last few years, our team has effectively managed supply pressures, driven better throughput and continuously managed prices. Our team is committed, resilient, prepared for the challenges ahead and positioned to capture the opportunities in front of us. We all share a great sense of optimism and urgency to demonstrate what we are capable of doing.&#8221;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;"><strong>Summary of First Quarter 2022 Financials</strong></p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">Net sales in the first quarter of 2022 increased 12% to $69.0 million from $61.8 million for the corresponding period in 2021. Net sales of existing products increased 4% in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the corresponding period in 2021. Price increases and new products increased net sales by 8% in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the corresponding period in 2021.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">Our gross margin in the first quarter of 2022 reflects the rapid increase in raw material prices. Cost of products sold increased by $8.2 million, or 18%, in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the corresponding period in 2021. The increase is primarily due to higher sales volume, as well as increases in the cost of materials and freight rates.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">Selling and administrative expenses increased by $0.9 million, or 10%, in the first quarter of 2022 when compared to the corresponding period in 2021, primarily due to investments in sales and marketing, higher commissions, and other selling costs.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">Other income decreased $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2022 from the first quarter of 2021, primarily due to a gain on the sale of the Eberhard Hardware Ltd. building of $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2021 that did not reoccur in the first quarter of 2022.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">Net income from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was $2.7 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to net income of $5.7 million, or $0.90 per diluted share, for the comparable period in 2021. After excluding the first quarter 2022 loss on the sale of our Wheeling, IL property, net of tax, adjusted net income from continuing operation for the first quarter of 2022 was $2.9 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income from continuing operations of $4.3 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2021, after excluding the first quarter 2021 gain on sale of the Eberhard Hardware Ltd property, net of tax.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;"><strong>Conference Call and Webcast</strong></p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">The Eastern Company will host a conference call to discuss its results for the first quarter and other matters on May 10, 2022, at 11:00 AM Eastern Time.

The non-GAAP financial measures presented may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies, and other companies may not define these non-GAAP financial measures in the same way. These measures are not substitutes for their comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, such as net sales, net income, diluted earnings per common share, or other measures prescribed by U.S. GAAP, and there are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures.</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <table style="border-spacing:0;font:10pt times new roman;width:100%" cellpadding="0"> <tr style="height:15px"> <td class="hpbhr">&nbsp;</td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td style="BORDER-BOTTOM: black 1px solid; TEXT-INDENT: 0px;"></td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td><p style='page-break-after: always'></p></td></tr> <tr style="height:15px"> <td>&nbsp;</td></tr></table> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman; MARGIN: 0px; text-align:left;">Adjusted Net Income from Continuing Operations is defined as net income from continuing operations excluding, when incurred, certain one-time costs arising from the impacts of impairment losses, gains/losses on the sale of subsidiaries and facilities, transaction expenses primarily relating to acquisitions and divestitures, factory start-up costs, factory relocation expenses and restructuring costs.
