Bill Rahhal, CFO, commented, "Purchase orders for our Intermediate Bulk Container Pallet (IBC) and our 56x44 Bottle and Can pallet drove sales higher during our third quarter of fiscal year 2012 as revenue from new customers was approximately $1,055,000. The third quarter is historically our slowest time of the year yet we managed to continue our momentum of growth while at the same time implementing changes to our manufacturing practices with emphasis on cost controls. Our EBITDA for the nine month period ended February 29, 2012 was $2,462,424. Based on the closing price of $0.08 per share for the Company's common stock as of the market's close on May 4, 2012, this is more than the market capitalization value of $2,088,896 of the Company. Over the next year, I will be working with our CEO to make the market aware of our great product lines and the incredible job our employees are doing for our shareholders and customers. We believe our business plan of redirecting recycled plastic into American made products is exactly the right direction at the right time."
