(Amex - SVT) announced a 63% increase in net income to $252,000 (or $0.12 per share - Basic and Diluted) on revenues of $5,826,000 for the third quarter ended September 30, 2005 as compared to net income of $154,000 (or $0.08 per share Basic and $0.07 per share Diluted) on revenues of $5,383,000 for the same quarter ended September 30, 2004. Net income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2005 was $581,000 (or $0.28 per share - Basic and $0.27 per share - Diluted) on revenues of $17,645,000 as compared to 2004's nine-month net income of $527,000 (or $0.26 per share - Basic and $0.25 per share - Diluted) on revenues of $16,351,000. The Increase in net income is attributable to increased shipments, product mix and price increases at the Company's Advanced Technology Group partially offset by a decrease in shipments at the Company's Consumer Products Group due to the scheduled completion of a significant government contract. Servotronics' expanded marketing efforts in foreign countries are continuing to be successful. Control components for foreign aerospace and industrial applications have been introduced and purchase orders received. These applications for our control components include foreign manufacturing equipment and jet engine controls. The Company has also been successful in becoming the exclusive supplier of certain control components to major domestic customers based on multi-year contracts. The press announcements of current and future production increases in the manufacture of commercial airliners by both Boeing and Airbus are, and will be, benefiting the Company. The Advanced Technology Group is forecasting continued sales increases in 2006. The Consumer Products Group working with its customers, is developing new items for both military and commercial applications. Military and government sales at the Consumer Products Group have a certain volatility that is traditionally characteristic of government procurements.
