Commenting on the announcement, Mr. Lewis Lo, president of GMI said, “We are pleased to report our 6th consecutive year of annual sales growth in light of some challenges beyond our control. The worldwide economic situation has not recovered as quickly as anticipated and there was significant unexpected price erosion in some technology segments. Fortunately GMI was able to overcome these challenges with prior operational and strategic actions taken to improve our competitiveness, resulting in an after-tax net profit for the year. In addition we added valuable new customer and vendor partnerships during the year, and also entered new high growth markets. Although we remain cautious about the ongoing worldwide economic challenges, we are optimistic about GMI’s continued long term revenue and profit growth.”
