David Robbins, Micronetics' CEO stated, "As expected, we generated sales in the second quarter related to the RFID product beta test. Sales of integrated component sub-systems for defense applications continued to grow, components reversed a downward trend and showed growth and we are making meaningful progress toward completion of our space contract."

This strong defense backlog coupled with the pipeline of opportunities in commercial areas including RFID warehouse management and in flight internet continues to drive our optimistic outlook."
