Cox, Chief Financial Officer, stated, "Our operations in our most recently
completed fiscal quarter have shown improvement over last year and the first
quarter of this fiscal year. Our operating loss of $1,281,000 is
after we took charges for additional staff reductions of $520,000 and settled a
contingent lease liability for our prior Baltimore facility for
$250,000. We had positive cash flow from operations for the
quarter. We increased our backlog during the quarter, and continue to
make pursuing new sales opportunities a top priority as we hope to benefit from
an overall economic improvement. Yet there is, in our
business as well as the general economy, a long way to go to put this recession
behind us. During the course of this downturn, we made a significant
improvement in our cost structure, a discipline we intend to
maintain. We continue to stringently monitor cash and limit capital
additions as we pursue alternatives to refinance $2.4 million of bank debt that
is maturing in the coming twelve months."
