We would like to announce that we earned 5 cents per share on sales of $22.0 million in the fourth quarter as compared to 5 cents per share on sales of $19.3 in the same quarter last year.
Full year earnings per share of 16 cents on sales of $85.5 million were down from 20 cents per share on sales of $78.6 million in 2010.
Our lower earnings per share for 2011 on higher sales is a direct result of intense competition and a high Canadian Dollar. Our focus going forward must be on cost reduction through employee involvement and service excellence as our key sales philosophy.
