Mark Libratore, the Company's President and CEO, commented, "During the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 we generated net income of $2.0 million and increased our cash balance by $3.6 million to $10.6 million at the end of the quarter. As a result of the improvements in our operating margins and cash flows during the first three quarters of fiscal year 2013, we have paid two quarterly dividends, totaling $2.6 million, to our shareholders and initiated a buyback of 1.0 million shares of our common stock. During July 2013, we completed an acquisition of a small medical supply company and are currently evaluating other potential small company acquisitions. We expect to continue to increase our operating margins and cash flows and continue to acquire new customers through our direct-response advertising efforts at our targeted acquisition costs."
