"As recently reported, CSI, our 51% owned label subsidiary, is now selling its new security label products which have a much larger addressable market compared with the company's historic offerings. We have been able to complete the development of two entirely new, major product lines while maintaining sales levels comparable with previous periods. In addition, YTD expenses have been reduced by a further 16%. We expect these changes will bring sales growth and profitability for Sentry."
