The Company recognized a $16,000 net tax benefit in the fourth quarter of 2012 and for the year ended December 31, 2012 primarily due to a partial release of the valuation allowance against the Company’s deferred tax asset.
 
Michael Goldman, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, said, “The Company experienced a significant improvement in the fourth quarter of 2012.  The improvement resulted from several factors, including sales of new product offerings, increased sales from a stronger inventory position, improved market penetration and the effects of Hurricane Sandy.  In 2012 the Company also leveraged more favorable terms from its lenders and expanded its use of vendor discount and rebate programs.
 
“As previously announced, our distribution agreement for Speed Queen washer-dryers accounted for more than 10% of our revenues in 2012 and will terminate in June of this year. Nevertheless, we believe that the Company is in a position to capitalize on improvements in the economy, additional sales from the after-effects of Hurricane Sandy, and the recent introduction of generators and generator accessories into our product line.”

*During the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company determined that the deferred tax liability balance and the accumulated deficit balance were understated by $412,000 at December 31, 2010. The Company is restating its accumulated deficit at December 31, 2010, to properly reflect a deferred tax liability of $412,000 arising from the cumulative amortization of goodwill for tax purposes which was incorrectly used to reduce the valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets which were not more likely than not expected to be realized. This retroactive adjustment results in increasing the accumulated deficit at December 31, 2010 and increasing total liabilities by $412,000. The impact of the annual amortization for tax purposes on the 2011 balance sheet, statement of income and cash flows was not material.
