Kevin R. Hoben, President and CEO, indicated the Company's 2nd Quarter Revenues
were down $2,824,000 (14.7%) from Revenues in the 2nd Quarter 2007, and Net
Income improved $125,000 (6.9%) over the same period. Similarly, Revenues for
the first six months of 2008 were $3,732,000 (10.2%) below Revenues in the same
period in 2007, but Net Income increased $322,000 (8.8%) over the same period.
Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2008 reflects continued weakness in
the residential construction industry, which was offset somewhat by gains in
market share in residential, non-residential and international construction
markets. Net income for the six- months ended June 30, 2008 rose primarily as a
result of improved margins related to decreased manufacturing costs and, to a
lesser extent, a decrease in marketing costs associated with reduced volume and
certain administrative costs.
