Greystone Logistics Corrects Previously Reported Unaudited Results for Quarter Ended May 31, 2010

TULSA, OK – (Market Wire) – August 31, 2010 – Greystone Logistics, Inc. (OTC BB:GLGI.OB – News), announced today it was correcting previously announced preliminary unaudited results for the quarter ending May 31, 2010.  This press release corrects and restates in its entirety Greystone's earlier press release dated July 14, 2010.

Operating profit for the 4th quarter was $705,137 with a net income before preferred dividends and income attributable to non-controlling interest of $505,517.  Net income available to common after preferred dividends was $404,434 or $.015 per share. Greystone's EBITDA (earnings before interest (including preferred dividends), income taxes, depreciation and amortization) for the quarter ended May 31, 2010 was $950,664.

"I am happy to report a fine fourth quarter to our shareholders to end our corporate year. Sustainability and the use of recycled plastic pallets and recycled resin is increasing at a rapid pace," said Warren Kruger, CEO of Greystone Logistics. Kruger continued, "Our company is well positioned in space we understand and the diligence of our dedicated employees to the success of the firm for the benefit our shareholders and their company is showing. We are seeing an increase in sales in our pallets and our recycled resin sales are in line with previously announced expectations."

Greystone Logistics is a rapidly growing manufacturing and leasing company that reprocesses and sells recycled plastic and designs, manufactures, sells and leases high quality plastic pallets that provide logistical solutions needed by a wide range of industries such as the food and beverage, automotive, chemical, pharmaceutical and consumer product industries. Greystone's technology, including that used in its injection molding equipment, proprietary blend of recycled petrochemical resins and patented pallet designs, allow production of high quality pallets quickly and at lower costs than many processes. The recycled plastic for its pallets helps control material costs while reducing environmental waste and provides cost advantages over users of virgin resin.
