Further, earnings per fully diluted share were $.08 versus $.01 per fully diluted share in the third quarter of 2002, representing the Company's seventh consecutive quarter of profitability.

Gross profits for the nine month period were $3,552,725 compared to $3,128,858 for 2002, representing an increase of 14%. Income from operations increased 27% to $1,284,198 from $1,008,499 in 2002.

The balance sheet also strengthened along with the Company's cash position to $1,454,509 on September 30, 2003 from $263,304 on September 30, 2002. Further, shareholders' equity increased 30% to $5,328,138 on September 30, 2003 from $4,102,093 on September 30, 2002.
Increases in both revenue and gross profit margins are due to the blend of the sales to original equipment manufacturing (OEM) customers and Winland's proprietary products, which include the environmental security/industrial sensors and DC motor controls. Net income increases can be attributed to the Company's increased sales and gross profit margins on a more profitable sales mix, coupled with the Company's ability to maintain consistent direct and indirect expenses. In addition, Winland's ability to maintain a strong balance sheet and lower overall debt levels has resulted in significant reductions in interest expense for 2003 compared to 2002
Lorin Krueger, Winland's CEO, stated, "We are very pleased to announce our 7th consecutive profitable quarter as we continue to 'build the path toward diversification and consistent profitability.' We are particularly proud of our bottom line results for the quarter as we feel it represents continued improvement and will provide us with momentum moving forward. Revenues were positively impacted by new sales to both existing and new customers as our expanded sales force builds our pipeline of business. We will continue to work on diversifying our customer base and further integrate Winland's value added services into the customer's supply chain process. A prime example of client integration is the announcement of our supplier managed inventory system for Select Comfort which will allow for a more rapid response to product demand and reduced cost for both companies.
In addition, it is important to note that we continue sales of our propriety security product line and are generating revenue and margin contribution from these sales. Sales of security products have been steady and Winland holds a large market share in the small niche of environmental sensors and controls to the electronic security market. In the coming year, our marketing team will be addressing expansion plans for this business line."
Winland Electronics, based in Mankato, MN, designs and manufactures custom electronic control products and systems, as well as proprietary products for the security/industrial marketplace.
