During the same period last year Interpharm did not produce Atenolol or Allopurinol, and Naproxen sales were approximately $265,000. Likewise, revenue increases for the nine-months ended March 31, 2004 were primarily attributable to sales of Atenolol, Allopurinol and Naproxen, which totaled approximately $11.4 million. During the same period in 2003, Interpharm did not produce Atenolol or Allopurinol, and Naproxen sales were approximately $750,000. Sales of drugs other than Atenolol, Allopurinol and Naproxen decreased by approximately $500,000 during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2004, due to management's decision to temporarily reassign available manufacturing capacity to higher margin products. The Company's gross profit percentage for the three and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2004 were 24.9% and 23.0%, respectively. This represents an increase of 5.9 and 4.5 percentage points, respectively, from the same periods a year ago. The Company attributes its increasing margins primarily to the diversification Diversification A risk management technique that mixes a wide variety of investments within a portfolio. It is designed to minimize the impact of any one security on overall portfolio performance.
