JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Feb. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Phlo Corporation (the "Company") reported revenue during the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007 of $190,072 and $320,256, respectively, as compared with revenue during the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2006 of $3,100 and $4,723, respectively. This represents increases in revenue of $186,972 and $315,533 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007, respectively, as compared with the comparable periods ended December 31, 2006. Further, revenue significantly increased from $116,560 during the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $190,072 during the three months ended December 31, 2007. The Company's gross profit margin for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 was 49%. The report was made on the Company's Form 10-QSB which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission last week and which provides additional detail related to the Company's operating results for the periods covered.
The Company noted that this significant increase in revenue occurred during, typically, one of the worst quarters of the beverage year for sales because of cold weather and holidays. In addition, this revenue increase occurred in spite of the Company's transition from 17-ounce packaging to new 20-ounce bottles for its AQISS(TM) vitality beverage product. This transition, in effect, kept AQISS(TM) out of the market for a substantial period during the quarter ended December 31, 2007.
The Company incurred cost of sales during the three and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007 of $132,149 and $164,671, respectively, as compared with cost of sales during the comparative three and nine-month periods of 2006 of $3,045 and $3,213 respectively.
