Richard Kalin, President & CEO, stated "We are pleased to report record revenues and earnings for FY2001. These results reflect significant growth in our Test Solutions and VCO Products Group. While the transition to the manufacture of integrated subassemblies in our Components and Subassemblies Group and the establishment of a $105,000 inventory obsolescence reserve hindered our gross margin, we were still able to report record earnings for FY2001. While we are seeing some impact from the current economy, our current visibility enables us to project double digit growth from each of our operating groups during the current fiscal year. Our new product pipeline is also the strongest it has been in several years. Backlog remains over 30% higher at this point than last year and we expect to operate at increased margins, due to better pricing and improved efficiencies, especially in our Components and Subassemblies Group. We currently expect FY2002 to be a record year for us."
