Third quarter revenue was $46.5 million, a 183% increase as compared to $16.5 million in the same period last year and a 14% sequential increase from $40.7 million in the second quarter of 2005. Net income for the third quarter was $5.8 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, as compared to a loss of $1.0 million, or $(0.08) per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2004.

We successfully expanded our gross and operating margins. CLAVE sales were up substantially. Our custom products continued to improve in all of our sales channels. Of further note, the integration of our Salt Lake City facility is ahead of plan and has exceeded our expectations and contributed to our bottom line.”
