NEWS RELEASE
PERFECT FRY CORPORATION
PNM, Alberta Stock Exchange
For immediate release
THIRD QUARTER SALES INCREASE
Calgary, September 23, 1998 - Unaudited financial statements show
third quarter Revenues of $501,000, a 19% increase from $419,500 in the same period
last year, and a Net Loss of $32,200, down from Net Earnings of $23,200 last year.
The main reason for the most recent quarter's net loss is increased
marketing and sales expenditures which are expected to generate higher sales in
the months ahead. Perfect Fry has aggressively showcased its deep fryers at trade
shows, increased national advertising and sales promotion, and increased the number
of distributor and dealer locations.
Nine months' financial results decreased from those of last year
due to an unusually strong first quarter last year and a weak first quarter this
year when the company was developing the new line of deep fryers. In the six months
ended July 31, 1998 Revenues increased 36% to $1,059,200, and Net Earnings 99%
to $62,300 from the same period in 1997.
