2004, Dominick A. Pagano, President and Chief Executive Officer,
said, "We are pleased with the year- end results and in particular
the fourth quarter, in which we achieved record sales and continued
improvement in our gross profit. After two years of rebuilding, we
are reporting our first fiscal year operating profit since 2001.
Compared to the fiscal year 2003, our operating profit for fiscal
year 2004 has improved from a loss of $143,000 to a profit of
$1,416,000. Our refinancing in January 2005 has reduced our debt
service and will provide for capital equipment through a $1.5
million equipment line. Our backlog remains strong and our
management team continues to develop. We look forward to
maintaining the positive momentum into 2005." About EDAC
