Working capital at March 31, 2011 was $2.3 million, as compared to working capital at June 30, 2010 of $1.2 million, representing an increase of $1.1 million during the nine month period. This increase was due to the continued profitability of the Company's operations.

"I am happy to report such positive earnings for our third fiscal quarter," stated Tena Mayberry, President and CEO. "We continue to add worksite employees while reducing our expenses, which resulted in an increase in revenue, net income, and EBITDA. We are seeing evidence of the economy recovering slowly, as our same-store sales are increasing, which indicates the hiring of new employees and increased salaries for our existing clients. Further, we have renegotiated our largest workers' compensation policy providing additional unrestricted cash for operations. We look forward to continuing this positive trend by keeping expenses in line while focusing on growing our revenue base."
