Bill Rahhal, CFO, commented, "Management is emboldened by the strong quarter but temper our enthusiasm for the next two quarters based on historically slower sales of beer case goods pallets. However, demand for our keg pallet and Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC) pallet continue to look good over the next six months. Additionally, one of the pelletizing lines which has been down for necessary maintenance will be placed back in service during next quarter and we may see resurgence in resin sales back to historical levels. All other product lines continue to hold steady and work also continues on promising new pallet opportunities with existing and new customers."
