Steinberg, President and CEO of Manchester Technologies, Inc., stated, "We are pleased that fourth quarter revenues increased as compared with last year. In particular, our service revenues increased by more than 78% as compared to last year. Revenues from our Electrograph subsidiary increased by more than 22% as compared to last year. Demand for Electrograph's display technology solutions remains strong. However, our results continue to reflect the difficult dynamics that are currently impacting our business and the markets we serve. The competitive nature of the industry, pricing pressure, and economic and market forces continue to affect us, resulting in a decrease in our gross margin percentage." "Our healthy cash position and strong balance sheet should enable us to withstand the current business and industry cycles, and allow us to continue focusing on our strategy of providing business solutions, services, product fulfillment and display technologies that meet all of our customers' needs." The Company ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $8.6 million, working capital of $30.7 million, total assets of $77.8 million and shareholders' equity of $43.9 million.
