Commenting on the results of the year, Mr. William Spencer, Imagenetix Chief Executive Officer said, “As I had indicated last quarter, our retail launch has taken longer to implement and was considerably more expensive than we anticipated. This is now behind us. We anticipate significant growth for fiscal 2009 which should generate significant profits for the Company.”
