fiscal 2008 and significantly improved our financial performance compared to
last year. I am confident we have set the stage for continued improvements,
establishing a solid baseline of performance upon which we can build. In the
short-term, we will complete our move into a new corporate headquarters,
providing the space and efficiency to support our growth. The move is currently
scheduled to occur in mid-April, impacting our fourth fiscal quarter by $250,000
to $350,000 in related non-recurring expenses and inefficiencies. Other than
this anticipated one-time charge, we look forward to continued strength in
operating performance."

million, unchanged from the backlog as of December 31, 2006. This demonstrates
the progress we have made in landing new business, while increasing shipments.
