 Soloway, Chairman and President, stated, "As evidenced by our strong sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2005, and subsequently extended through the second fiscal quarter, our business strategy of reallocating our burglar and fire alarm sales across our extensive national network of independent distributors has been well received and the revitalization re·vi·tal·ize

 of that segment of our business has taken hold."

"Our independent distributor network has done an outstanding job of reaching out to an expanding list of security dealers who focus on residential, commercial, industrial and governmental security installations, resulting in increased acceptance and sales of NAPCO alarm products," noted Mr. Soloway.

"In addition," Mr. Soloway added, "NAPCO has shown major improvements in our financial metrics metrics Managed care A popular term for standards by which the quality of a product, service, or outcome of a particular form of Pt management is evaluated.

 $4 million to $4.4 million and since December 31, 2003 by $9.2 million. Net cash provided by operating activities during this period was $5.1 million compared to $2.6 million a year ago."

NAPCO has recently introduced its newest, expanded catalog catalog, descriptive list, on cards or in a book, of the contents of a library. Assurbanipal's library at Nineveh was cataloged on shelves of slate. The first known subject catalog was compiled by Callimachus at the Alexandrian Library in the 3d cent. B.C.  (available on request) demonstrating once again NAPCO's commitment to its customer's need for state-of-the-art breakthrough security products and systems; a commitment that is met by devoting over $4 million annually to R&D.

"As the second half of our fiscal year is historically our strongest, we can look forward with a great degree of confidence to reporting significant sales gains over the remainder of the fiscal year, and, since our bottom line is sensitive to volume, we can also expect a positive impact on net income and per share results. We look forward to reporting another very successful year," Mr. Soloway concluded.

As of December 31, 2004, NAPCO's current ratio was 4.9-to-1, working capital stood at $28.7 million and long-term debt Long-Term Debt
