HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., Dec. 13 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Manchester Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:MANC), a leading distributor of display technology solutions and plasma display monitors, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended October 31, 2004. On May 28, 2004, the Company sold its end-user information technology fulfillment and professional services business to ePlus, inc., a leading provider of Enterprise Cost Management, in an all cash transaction. The results of operations for the end-user information technology fulfillment and professional services business have been recorded as discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. Revenue from continuing operations for the quarter was $46.9 million as compared with $45.4 million for the comparable quarter last year. Income from continuing operations for the quarter was $1.8 million or $0.21 per diluted share as compared with $844,000 or $0.10 per diluted share reported a year ago. Weighted average common shares outstanding used for the computation of diluted earnings per share were 8,434,000 and 8,251,000, respectively. Barry R. Steinberg, President and CEO of Manchester Technologies, Inc., stated, "We are pleased with the increase in revenues and profitability as compared to last year. In particular, sales of our display technology solutions increased by 12% as compared to last year. However, this increase was partially offset by decreased sales of computer hardware to dealers and systems integrators as a result of our inability to procure products for this line of business." The Company ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $20.9 million, working capital of $37.4 million, total assets of $74.4 million and shareholders' equity of $45.0 million.
