o 22% increase in EBITDA before minority interests to $2.37 million from $1.94 million;

o 19% increase in revenues to $5.52 million from $4.62 million;

o 21% increase in PBT after minority interests to $1.88 million from $1.55 million.

· Tradanet loan volumes were up by 14%.

Millchem continued its trajectory of improvements and is trading profitably:

· $351,000 turnaround in EBITDA to $158,000 from a loss of $193,000;

· 30% gross profit margin - a 70% improvement from 18% gross profit margin;

· $1.33 million in revenues - a reduction of 25% but achieving a more profitable product mix;
