Business Wire, June 05, 2009

BACKLOG

Consolidated backlog at May 2, 2009 was $14.9 million compared to a backlog at August 2, 2008 of approximately $22.7 million. The Company’s Medical System segment experienced a decrease in third quarter fiscal 2009 backlog of $9.3 million from August 2, 2008, due to a weak global economy. The backlog in the Power Conversion Group of $5.6 million reflects an increase of $0.2 million from levels at the beginning of the fiscal year. Substantially all of the backlog should result in shipments within the next 12 to 15 months.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Del Global’s balance sheet at May 2, 2009 reflected working capital of $22.1 million, which included $4.0 million of cash and cash equivalents. As of May 2, 2009, Del Global had outstanding borrowings of $2.6 million under its U.S. and Italian revolving credit facilities. In the aggregate, Del Global had approximately $18.0 million of borrowing availability under its domestic and Italian revolving credit facilities.

COMMENTS

James A. Risher, Del Global’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our results during the fiscal 2009 third quarter were disappointing but reflect the impact of a worldwide economic downturn and major capital spending reductions for radiographic products. We are continuing to implement aggressive sales and marketing programs to encourage customers to meet their imaging needs. New digital products offerings in our Medical Systems Group aimed at giving existing customers affordable and easy upgrade paths from their older systems are gaining acceptance. We are continuing to implement cost reduction actions to better match our revenues and costs. Our product and market position leaves us optimistic that through continuous new product introductions and strategic agreements we can continue to stimulate demand in our existing customer base while penetrating new profitable markets both in the U.S. and overseas.”
