ABMC Chief Executive Officer Stan Cipkowski stated, “We have made significant expense reductions that have allowed us to be profitable in the second quarter despite the downturn in sales. We will continue to monitor expenses to ensure that they remain in line with sales levels. The uncertainty of our economy continues to negatively impact business in our core markets of workplace and government. This uncertainty also makes it difficult to predict what the future will bring, however, if we continue to see sales declines in our U.S. markets, we are hopeful that new sales opportunities in European markets will offset such declines.”
