Bonal International, Inc. Posts First Quarter Results

Net Income Off 65 Percent and Sales Decreased 6.6 Percent, with a 30 Percent Shareholder Equity Increase 


ROYAL OAK, Mich., July 28  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Bonal International, Inc. (OTC:BONL) today announced first quarter ending June 30, 2008 unaudited results.  Net income decreased by 65 percent from $179,859 at June 30, 2007 to $63,336.  Bonal's sales decreased 6.6 percent from $644,773 to $601,951. Shareholder equity increased 30 percent.

Foreign unit sales are 39 percent, up from 36 percent last year.  US purchases are softened but rental income of Bonal's technology has increased 42 percent, demonstrating that small businesses are interested in Bonal's technology but hesitant about making capital equipment purchases because of nervousness about the US economy.

"The decrease in net income is in part a result of Bonal investing cash in increased marketing programs including more tradeshows, additional advertising and training," said A. George Hebel, III, chairman and president of Bonal International.  "These programs are part of a long term strategy to increase Bonal's market presence and sales."
