“RSI reports Third Quarter 2006 results”

Tempe, Arizona, February 3, 2006                                                 

 

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

 

I am pleased to report that Reconditioned Systems, Inc. (“RSI”) was profitable again this quarter.  We are just slightly ahead of our budget for sales and profits year to date, and I expect that we will meet our forecast for this year of flat sales with a slight increase in profits over last year.

 

We are just beginning to see small price increases (or more correctly smaller discounts) and hope that this will lead to better margins. OEM lead times are increasing which should also help our business.  We are moving our Tempe facility this year; we are optimistic that we will experience little or no disruption to our sales or manufacturing, however, any such change is always a distraction.  Our new facility should make us more efficient and give us additional capacity for the future.

 

For the three months ended December 31 2005, RSI made $213 thousand on sales of $5 million.  This compares to a profit of $159 thousand on sales of $5 million for the quarter ending December 31, 2004.   The better performance continues to validate the cost cutting of the last two years, including becoming a non-reporting company. More and more small companies are following our lead due to the high cost of remaining a public company.  We need to improve our margins and become more profitable.  Your Board of Directors will be focusing on this for the future.  This is problematic however, given the difficulty in maintaining profitable, domestic, non-technical manufacturing.

 

The economy has been remarkably strong so far this year, however, energy-driven inflation should trend higher for 2006, and interest rates should also rise.  This could be a problem for the economy and we remain cautious for this next year. 

 

/S/ Scott W. Ryan
