Note 7 - Concentration of Credit Risk
 
Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is generally limited due to the number of entities comprising the Company's customer base. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations and provides an allowance for potential credit losses against the portion of accounts receivable which is estimated to be uncollectible. Such losses have historically been within management's expectations.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, there were three and two customers, respectively whose purchases represented more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated net sales.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, there were two and three customers, respectively whose purchases represented more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated net sales.  Sales to the top three customers for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:
