The Company reported second quarter revenue of $6,556,000, compared to $6,080,000 for the same period in fiscal 2007 or a net increase of 7.8%.

The Company had 2008 second quarter net income of $ 81,000 or $ .02 per share, compared to net income of $188,000 or $.04 per share in the same period for 2007.

For the six months ended June 30, 2008, revenues were $12,471,000, compared to $12,153,000 in 2007, or a net increase of 2.6%.

Total net income was $69,000 or $.02 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $.10 per share in the same period in 2007.



The Company had working capital of $7.0 million, at both December 31, 2007 and June 30, 2008 but improved its current ratio from 8.5 to 1.00 to 9.8 to 1.00 for the respective periods. The Company has no debt, and total equity was $7,478,000 as of June 30, 2008.

Steve Rade, CEO, stated, "Our sales were up in the second quarter by 7.83% while our income before taxes decreased by $181,000 from the same period in 2007. The decline in operating income was primarily attributable to a drop in our gross margin percentage as a result of our plan to expand the sale of lower margin Bluetooth, Memory card and OEM products at competitive prices.

"On a year to date basis our Pretax Income was affected by the result of an $187,000 loss on Marketable Securities in 2008 versus $43,000 of net gains in 2007, or a net swing of $230,000 due to negative stock market conditions.

"In regard to our core business, we have reversed the down trend of late 2007 and early 2008 and have now shown five consecutive months of sales increases including a record July 2008. We are excited about the customers that have been added and their potential to generate higher margins. Additionally, we will continue to look for added efficiencies in our operation and cut costs wherever possible in order to enhance our profitability."
