Review and Outlook

"We are encouraged with our results for the quarter ended June 30, 2012," said James N. Jannello, Executive Vice President and Chief Executive Officer. "For the three months, we experienced an improvement within our transportation logistics operations when compared to the prior year, where our loss from operations improved by $143,170 to a loss from operations of $(65,374) compared to a loss from operations of $(208,544) in the prior year."                    

Jannello concluded, "During the quarter ended June 2012, we divested ourselves of the food segment and the negative impact that segment was having on our financial results.  This was a significant step for us and now we are entirely focused on our transportation logistics operations and building on our financial turnaround that we have seen for the three months ended June 2012.  Looking ahead, and in the very short term, we are seeking to raise additional capital in order to grow the transportation logistics segment to profitability."
