Sentry Technology Corporation (PINKSHEETS: SKVY) today reported financial results for the Company's first quarter ended March 31, 2010.

Revenues for the first quarter of 2010 were $2,226,000 compared to revenues of $2,513,000 reported in the first quarter of the prior year. The operating loss net of foreign exchange was $144,000, or $(0.00) per share, in the first quarter of 2010 as compared to a net operating loss of $232,000 or $(0.00) per share, in the first quarter of 2009.

"We have been successful in implementing expense reductions while continuing to develop new products," said Peter L. Murdoch, President and CEO of Sentry Technology Corporation. "During the first quarter we designed an unlocking device for DVDs as an add-on feature to our QuickCheck™ library self-service system. The first units were installed in one of America's largest municipal libraries. Our SmartTrack™ traveling camera systems are beginning to be shipped under an OEM agreement with one of the world's largest video systems integrators. Orders are anticipated to increase in the coming quarters as technical and sales training is completed at the customer's many European offices. Recently, two shareholders loaned the company a total of $450,000 dollars and management negotiated to postpone all non-supplier debt until June 30, 2011."

Sentry Technology Corporation designs, manufactures, sells and installs a complete line of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) solutions, Electro-Magnetic (EM) and RFID based Library Management systems as well as Radio Frequency (RF) and Electro-Magnetic (EM) EAS systems. Our CCTV product line features SentryVision®, SmartTrack™, a proprietary, patented traveling Surveillance System. Products are used by libraries to secure inventory and improve operating efficiency, by retailers to deter shoplifting and internal theft and by industrial and institutional customers to protect assets and people.
