Commenting on the Company's performance for the quarter, Herbert F.

The increase in placement service revenues for the quarter was achieved through a combination of a 16% increase in the number of placements and a 5% increase in the average placement fee. Contract service revenues benefited from a 15% increase in the average billing rate, but also reflected a 10% decrease in billable hours. The increase in consolidated revenues enabled the Company to return to profitability for the quarter."

Mr. Imhoff added, "Continued improvement for the Company will depend on continued improvement in the demand for the Company's professional staffing services."
