This amount has been added to goodwill. �Our third quarter and nine months performance positions us well for another solid year,� said Len Borow, President and Chief Operating Officer. Both segments of our business performed well as the nine months book-to-bill ratio was 1.03 to 1.0. We head into the remainder of the fiscal year with a backlog of $253 million, 46% of which is scheduled to ship in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007.� Our estimate of operating results for the June 2007 quarter is as follows: net sales are expected to be approximately $162 million, and GAAP net income per diluted share is anticipated to be $0.15. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share are anticipated to be $0.20.
