Management's focus on cost reduction and increasing sales has the Company emerging from the global economic slowdown with a consistent growth trend of profitability. Competing producers of dextran-based products have retracted, and in some cases have become obsolete, providing further opportunity for growth in established and new markets.

European customer orders have continued to be on the rise during this past quarter, despite the economic turmoil being experienced in the region. That trend continues as we approach the calendar and fiscal year end. 

Management has also remained engaged with current and potential customers in North America, endeavoring to develop new markets and uses for the company's dextran-based products. Additionally, several opportunities to increase its supply lines to domestic pharmaceutical and veterinary pharmaceutical industries are being explored.

In the coming year, Management intends to explore manufacturing alliances in order to seek and fulfill orders on a larger scale than the current maximum production capacity. Developing and fostering these relationships will help the Company grow in markets that are now impracticable to supply.
