Total sales by quarter are consistent when compared to last year with the exception of the second quarter. In the second quarter of 2007, total sales included a large Intertain equipment implementation and a significant progress billing on a large OMT Technologies custom contract.

The large OMT Technologies custom project subsequently developed project delays, which resulted in a $47,000 net decrease in gross profit in the second quarter of 2007. The second quarter of 2007 was also impacted by the large, but lower margin, Intertain equipment order.

Operating expenses, this year and last year continue to decline on a running quarter to quarter. The exception is Q2 in both years which is when the Company attends a large annual industry sales trade show. Sale of the RPS business in May of 2007 has also helped to reduce costs over the long term.

Fourth Quarter 2008

Fourth quarter revenue at $796,000 was $2,000 (0.3%) higher than the same quarter last year and $131,000 (19.7%) higher than the third quarter this year. The increase in sales in the fourth quarter as compared to the third quarter this year was general in nature and not due to any particular product or service.
