HUDSON, N.H.--(Business Wire)--
Micronetics, Inc. (NASDAQ:NOIZ) today reported results for its thirteen and
twenty-six weeks ended September 26, 2009. 

Net sales for the second quarter (Q2 FY2010) were $8.8 million, an increase of
35% or $2.3 million compared to $6.5 million for Q2 FY2009. The increase in net
sales for Q2 FY2010 is primarily due to an RFID beta product sale, a space based
contract, and sales of integrated component sub-systems and components, of
approximately equal amounts. 

For Q2 FY2010 the Company reported net income of $186,323 or $0.04 per diluted
share, as compared to a net loss of ($66,600) or ($0.01) per diluted share for
Q2 FY2009. 

Net sales for the twenty-six weeks ended September 26, 2009 were $16.7 million,
an increase of 23% or $3.1 million compared to $13.6 million for the twenty-six
weeks ended September 27, 2008. The increase in net sales is primarily
attributable to an increase in sales of integrated component sub-systems for
jamming and electronic modernization of approximately $1.6 million, an RFID beta
test product sale of $.7 million and sales related to a space based contract of
$.7 million. 

For the twenty-six weeks ended September 26, 2009, the Company reported net
income of $174,258 or $.04 per diluted share, as compared to net income of
$91,006 or $0.02 per diluted share for the twenty-six weeks ended September 27,
2008. 

Backlog increased to $31 million on approximately $14 million in bookings for
the quarter. 

David Robbins, Micronetics' CEO stated, "As expected, we generated sales in the
second quarter related to the RFID product beta test. Sales of integrated
component sub-systems for defense applications continued to grow, components
reversed a downward trend and showed growth and we are making meaningful
progress toward completion of our space contract." 

Mr. Robbins continued, "Our current backlog makeup is predominately defense
related integrated subassemblies to be shipped over a two year period, and the
balance is a mix of components with delivery schedules between 1 and 5 months.
This strong defense backlog coupled with the pipeline of opportunities in
commercial areas including RFID warehouse management and in flight internet
continues to drive our optimistic outlook."

integrated subassemblies used in a variety of defense, aerospace and commercial
