the $2.1 million (net of taxes) of special items ($0.17 per diluted
share), the Company�s pretax profit was $6.8 million and net income
was $4.6 million ($0.36 per diluted share). Sales: The Company
realized record sales of $40.3 million, an increase of 6.5% or $2.5
million, for the three months ended September 29, 2006 and $116.2
million, an increase of 14.6% or $14.8 million, for the nine months
ended September 29, over the comparable periods in 2005. Pretax
Profits: Pretax profits, excluding special items was $6.8 million
for the third quarter of the year as compared to $6.0 million in
the same period last year, an increase of 14%. For the nine months
ended September 29, 2006 pretax profits, excluding special items
were $20.4 million compared to $14.7 for the same period in 2005,
an increase of 38.8%. Profits: Net income, excluding special items
was $4.6 million for the third quarter of this year as compared to
$4.4 million in the same period last year, an increase of 4.6%. For
the nine months ended September 2006, net income, excluding special
items was $13.8 million compared to $10.9 million for the same
period in 2005, an increase of 26.8%. EPS: Net income per share,
including special items, is $0.20 per diluted share for the quarter
and $0.83 per diluted share for the nine months ending September
29, 2006. Net income per share, excluding special items, was $0.36
on a diluted basis for the quarter ended September 29, 2006, and
$0.36 per share on a diluted basis reported for the same period in
2005. For the nine months ended September 29, 2006, net income per
share, excluding special items, was $1.10 on a diluted basis in
2006 compared to $0.89 on a diluted basis for 2005, a 23.6%
increase. Antoine Dominic, Chief Executive Officer, stated �We are
quite pleased with our quarter and year to date results considering
that we achieved these results while having to work within the
framework of the merger contract, the uncertainty in the market and
lack of new efforts to further expand our market presence due to
the pending merger. Now that the merger is officially terminated,
we are committed to growing Excel by expanding our product
portfolio and markets organically and through acquisitions. Our
year to date sales growth of 14.6% was good because it was all
organic. However, our year to date pre-tax income growth of 38.8%
(excluding special items) was even more satisfying as we increased
our operational efficiencies. We need to continue our emphasis on
organic growth as the ratio of sales increase to profitability is
far greater as evidenced this year. During the year the Company has
introduced several new products that have been well received in the
market and we plan to enter 2007 with a record product portfolio
that should aid in our organic growth. We also have a fairly
healthy cash balance that we hope will enable us to expand our
acquisition objectives and also to utilize it wisely for share
repurchases.� Alice Hughes Varisano, Chief Financial Officer,
concluded, �The third quarter of 2006 was the Company�s fifth
straight quarter of record sales, pre tax profits, net income and
earnings per share (excluding special items). Sales increased 6.5%
during the quarter and 14.6% for the first nine months compared to
the same period last year. Pre tax profits (excluding special
items) increased 14% to $6.8 million for the third quarter and for
the nine months ended September 30, 2006 increased 38.8% to $20.4
million compared to the same period last year. Profits for the
quarter increased 4.6% and for the nine months 26.8% (excluding
special items), less of an increase than pre tax profits due to the
effective tax rate increasing from 27% to 33% in 2006. This
increase in the tax rate was due in part to the suspension of the
R&D credit, non deductibility of certain merger related costs,
and the reduction of a tax exposure liability due to a settlement
in 2005 that did not reoccur in 2006. The Company generated $9
million of cash during the first nine months, resulting in a cash
and investment balance of $59.0 million as of September 30, 2006;
with no debt. Year to date bookings at September 30, 2006 were $118
million, an increase of over 11% or $12.0 million over the same
period in the prior year. The backlog at the end of the third
quarter 2006 was $36.5 million an increase of 16.0% or $5.0 million
compared to $31.5 million backlog for the third quarter 2005, which
is quite strong.� Excel and its wholly owned subsidiaries
