For the three months ended June 30, 2007, sales rose 8% from the $4,378,386 recorded last year to the $4,732,528 recorded this year. Pre-tax income for the same period rose to $485,459 from $479,451 a year ago. After- tax income declined to $303,630 this year from $332,467 a year ago.  Last year’s after-tax income results were aided by favorable tax credits.

William Armanino, the Company’s chairman and CEO said, “The growth and maturation of our in-house sales force and our broker and distributor network during the last two years, a recently implemented price increase in some of our products and a number of promotions conducted in our food service and retail sectors all contributed to our profit and sales increase.”  He added, “We believe this favorable trend in both sales and pre-tax earnings will continue for the balance of the year. We are currently launching organic pesto flavors into both of our core market segments, which we expect to also increase sales growth in the future.”
