pleased with our performance for the first six months of our fiscal year.
The second quarter represents our eighth consecutive quarter of
profitability. The increase in revenue and earnings reflects an increase

manufacturers. We continue to implement our plan to develop large-size
backlight units for the LCD-TV market. I expect continued double-digit
earnings and revenue growth for fiscal 2008."
