Key Financial Comparisons
The Company had working capital of approximately $7.3 million,
up from $7.3 million at September 30, 2009. The Company has no
debt, and total Shareholder equity has reached approximately
$7,800,000 as of September 30, 2010. The equity total was effected
by a dividend of $.10 per share totaling $400,000 which was paid
out during the June 2010 Quarter.
Steve Rade, CEO, stated, "We had another quarter of good sales
growth as we showed an increase of approximately 15% for the
quarter by expanding our OEM product offerings and promotions and
offering aggressive pricing to match our competitors which lowered
our gross profit percentage. Unfortunately, our third quarter
operating income fell from $203,000 in 2009 to a loss of $76,000 in
2010. The drop in our gross margin percentages affected our
operating income but the main cause of our income decline was
attributable to the implementation of new business software in
early May 2010 which fell far short of vendor promises and
assurances relating to system performance and functionality. This
has resulted in a continuing amount of valuable management and
staff time and attention being diverted from selling customers and
managing operations to focusing on fixing numerous problems and
performing basic functions while coping with unacceptable response
times. Though we have made some progress in the past few months we
still have a lot of issues to resolve and far to go before we start
enjoying some of advertised the benefits of the system.
Meanwhile, the Company is still incurring extra expenses in
terms of overtime, paying for vendor fixes and modifications in
order to achieve the basic functionality of the system.
The Company is putting in a massive effort in terms of time and
expense and has put maximum pressure on our vendor to get it right
and we hope to see serious improvement by the end of the this
year.
