Roger G. Little, chairman/CEO, said, “We are pleased that the company continues to experience record revenues and substantial, year-over-year growth of 25.3% in our solar business segment. Our solar business now accounts for 83.4% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Gross margins increased to 18.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010; a year-over-year increase of 61% for the same nine months ended September 30, 2009.

“This was another solid quarter with revenue growth in the solar business line, driven by high quality customers that have been added to our customer portfolio. The increase in business activity was due to the strong demand of solar equipment and solar systems have steadily progressed since the beginning of the fiscal year through the third quarter. The company remains focused on margin enhancement by driving productivity and efficiency programs as we scale the business to meet continued top line growth while generating value to our shareholders.”
