"We continue to make steady progress on our strategic plan," commented Christopher H. Atayan, AMCON's Chief Executive Officer. Atayan added "Both of our business segments performed well this quarter. We have a highly cohesive organization that is focused on delivering superior service to our wholesale and retail customers. Our focus on fundamentals leads directly to value creation for our shareholders. Moreover, this philosophy positions us well in a period of economic volatility." For the first fiscal quarter of 2008, AMCON's Wholesale Distribution segment generated revenues of $201.1 million and operating income before depreciation and amortization of $3.0 million. AMCON's Retail Health Food segment generated revenues of $9.5 million and operating income before depreciation and amortization of $0.9 million. "Our Customer First philosophy led to several new business awards during the quarter and we continue to manage the business as efficiently as possible," commented Kathleen Evans, President of AMCON's Wholesale Distribution Segment. "We continue to offer our consumers a wide variety of quality products and strong customer service, which we believe continues to differentiate us from our competitors," commented Eric Hinkefent, President of AMCON's Retail Health Food segment. "Income from continuing operations for the first fiscal quarter of 2008 was $1.0 million as compared to $0.6 million in the comparable prior period on lower operating and interest costs. Our fully diluted results from the prior period also included a gain of $0.9 million in connection with the sale of the assets of Hawaiian Natural Water Company" commented Andrew Plummer, AMCON's Chief Financial Officer. Plummer added, "We continue to maintain a high degree of liquidity, which facilitates our ability to take advantage of opportunities that benefit our customers." AMCON is a leading wholesale distributor of consumer products, including beverages, candy, tobacco, groceries, food service, frozen and chilled foods, and health and beauty care products with distribution centers in Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota and South Dakota. Chamberlin's Natural Foods, Inc. and Health Food Associates, Inc., both wholly-owned subsidiaries of The Healthy Edge, Inc., operate health and natural product retail stores in central Florida (6), Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma (4). The retail stores operate under the names Chamberlin's Market & Cafe and Akins Natural Foods Market. This news release contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties and which reflect management's current beliefs and estimates of future economic circumstances, industry conditions, Company performance and financial results. A number of factors could affect the future results of the Company and could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in the Company's forward-looking statements including, without limitation, availability of sufficient cash resources to conduct its business and meet its capital expenditures needs. Moreover, past financial performance should not be considered a reliable indicator of future performance. Accordingly, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to all such forward-looking statements.
