“RSI reports First Quarter 2008 results”

Tempe, Arizona, August 10, 2007                                                  

 

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

 

I am pleased to report that Reconditioned Systems, Inc. (“RSI”) was profitable again this quarter.  Although we fell short of our budget for sales and profits, I am hopeful that once we have all of our sales people back on track and comfortable with our new systems from Maxon that we will get closer to our goals.  There is still very tough price competition and margin pressure, but I am hopeful that this year will be better than last year.

 

For the three months ending June 30, 2007, RSI made income of $155 thousand on sales of $4.5 million.  This compares to net income of $252 thousand on sales of $5 million for the quarter ending June 30, 2006.  This is the first quarter after the consolidation of our two manufacturing operations into our new facility in Tempe. While we did not achieve the margins I was expecting, I am confident that Carl Grending, our new vice president for sales, will develop a unified, professional sales team with improved sales result. 

 

The economy is still slowing, and it is unlikely to return to the growth of the past few years.  With little wage gains, high debt burdens and reduced mortgage refinancing, consumer spending should continue to slow as well. Despite this, we are still budgeting for a modest increase in sales and earnings for this next fiscal year.

 

We have paid annual dividends for the last two years.  This year the board again voted to pay an annual dividend of $0.25 on August 31, 2007, to shareholders of record on July 5, 2007.  This is lower than last year and reflects the lower earnings.  As in the past, any future dividends will depend on our performance and financial position.

 

/S/ Scott W. Ryan
