with year-to-date earnings of $593,000, compared to a loss of $442,637 the same

stronger domestic revenue, and for the nine month period, lower selling, general
and administrative expenses. The improved profit resulted in earnings per share
of $0.02 and $0.03 per share for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2011, respectively, compared to respective losses per share of $0.01 and $0.02
the same periods last year.
