Yikes! Earnings are out... I don't know what this will do to ALAN today. But I substantially decreased my exposure to ALAN yesterday by unloading my higher priced shares and taking a nice tax loss. Things were just starting to smell too funny to me. Salubre delays, Harbinger unrest, CEO stepping down, Tim's whisper number, and STILL no poppers in Marietta, OH. I either did an "Ooops" or an "O'Lay!" Guess I'll find out today. --------------------------------------------------------- SCOTTSDALE, Ariz--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 30, 1997--Alanco Environmental Resources Corp. (NASDAQ:ALAN) Wednesday reported record revenue of $1,791,181 for the third quarter ended March 31, 1997, and a net loss of $897,755 or $0.03 per share, compared to revenue of $974,085 for a loss of $1,048,588 or $0.03 per share for the same quarter a year earlier. Dennis Schlegel, chairman and chief executive officer of ALANCO said, "Our first priority is revenue growth. We are pleased to report substantial top line revenue growth of 83 percent over the quarter a year earlier, much of which comes from our Fry Guy division. Our revenue for the nine months of the current fiscal year already surpasses total revenue for the entire previous fiscal year." For the nine months ended March 31, 1997, ALANCO reported a net loss of $1,734,138, or $0.05 per share on revenue of $5,226,629. That compares with a net loss of $2,243,831, or $0.07 per share on revenue of $3,855,256 for the third quarter a year ago. "Now that we have the food services division on a solid growth track, the board and I are looking closely at subsidiaries that are not adequately contributing to our growth," said Schlegel. "While the Fry Guy program continues to expand, we did encounter a delay in introducing it to the independent marketplace," said Schlegel. "The program with Salubre Foods has now gotten underway and is beginning to grow nicely. But that initial delay coupled with losses in the insurance division render projections made by prior management inoperative. "We intend to let our relationship with Salubre develop and pursue additional opportunities for the Fry Guy program before issuing any updated projections." -0- *T Alanco Environmental Resources Corp.
