Fourth quarter Income from operations were $ 33,338 for fiscal
2010 vs. $ 98,132 in 2009.
A major difference between Income from Operations and reported
Net Income was caused by a large increase in the value of
unrealized gains from the Company's investment in Marketable
Securities in 2009, versus no gain in 2010 due to a change in our
accounting treatment of unrealized gains. This affected the fourth
quarter of 2010 as we adjusted $ 230,000 of unrealized gains which
were included in the nine month results, through September 30,
2010.

The Company ended the year with working capital of approximately
$ 7.3 million, down from approximately $ 7.6 million at December
31, 2009. The Company has no debt, and total equity is

Management Comments
Steve Rade, CEO, stated, "We achieved our objective of
increasing our sales base and market share in a highly competitive
industry environment, with increasing carrier restrictions. In the
fourth quarter we were able to increase our sales by 34% which
achieved a 15% total increase for the year. However, our net
profit was affected as our gross margin percentage was negatively
impacted by our aggressive pricing to match or beat our
competitors, coupled with a change in our sales mix to lower margin
OEM product to keep pace with industry trends and demands.
The Company continued its cost cutting and restructuring leading
to a modest increase of 1% in operating expenses in the fourth
quarter 2010 compared to 2009."
During 2010, we made significant progress through our investment
in technology, employee upgrades, improved productivity, and
product line expansion. In 2011, we plan to fully capitalize on
these efforts, particularly in enhancing our value added service
capabilities. These services include Vendor Managed Inventory, a
new B2C web site program, and Retailer sales training programs. We
expect to be in a position to regain our profitability to take full
advantage of market conditions as they begin to improve.
