Tuesday May 23, 9:22 am ET


NEW YORK, May 23, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Industrial Enterprises of America, Inc. (OTC BB:ILNP.OB - News) a specialty automotive aftermarket supplier, today announced results for the fiscal third quarter ended March 31, 2006. The Company recorded revenues of $9,030,898 for the quarter, representing an increase of over 300% compared to the fiscal third quarter ended March 31, 2005. ILNP recorded a net loss of $2,276,927 for the quarter compared to a net loss of $703,211 in the same quarter last year.

The increase in net loss for the quarter was due to the disruption of filling lines during consolidation, expenses associated with the sale and closure of Springdale Specialty Plastics, and one time restructuring costs.

John Mazzuto, Chief Executive Officer of Industrial Enterprises of America, Inc., commented, ``The significant revenue increase we experienced was overshadowed by one-time and short term expenses associated with the consolidation of our operations following the acquisition of Pitt Penn Oil Co. Actual consolidation, which is being done in conjunction with an upgrade of facilities, will be 90% complete within the next two weeks -- approximately 60 days ahead of schedule. ILNP accelerated the rate of the change as the level of sales orders increased substantially and we realized we would need the additional capacity earlier than anticipated. The Company recently increased guidance for fiscal year 2007, partly due to the sale of our Springdale facility which immediately reduced our debt, and better purchasing terms from our suppliers as we are dramatically increasing the quantities being ordered by our consolidated entity. As an indication of the progress made in the last 18 months, sales have gone from zero to a forecasted $80 million, equity has gone from zero to $6.5 million, and assets have grown to $35 million. Shareholders can anticipate seeing the Company generate $80 Million in revenue in the coming fiscal year and achieve earnings of approximately $0.90 - $1.00 per share on a split-adjusted, fully diluted basis with an application to a major exchange within the next 10 business days.''

Additionally, the Company will host a conference call on Wednesday May 24, 2006, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss Third Quarter 2006 financial results as well as recent developments.

>>>Ahhh, a halt in commodity futures, it brings another refrain to mind--can you spell "Lock-Limit-down?<<<


Speaking of the "Eagles Farewell Tour" , I'm surprised you didn't start singing "Take it to the limit!"

In case you forgot the lyrics:

All alone at the end of the evening
And the bright lights have faded to blue
I was thinking 'bout a woman who might have
Loved me and I never knew
You know I've always been a dreamer
(spent my life running 'round)
And it's so hard to change
(Can't seem to settle down)
But the dreams I've seen lately
Keep on turning out and burning out
And turning out the same

So put me on a highway
And show me a sign
And take it to the limit one more time

You can spend all your time making money
You can spend all your love making time
If it all fell to pieces tomorrow
Would you still be mine?

And when you're looking for your freedom
(Nobody seems to care)
And you can't find the door
(Can't find it anywhere)
When there's nothing to believe in
Still you're coming back, you're running back,
your come'n back for more

So put me on a highway
And show me a sign
And take it to the limit one more time

Take it to the limit
Take it to the limit
Take it to the limit one more time


I'm going to have to do a Napster thingy on that one as well.
