UNITEC REPORTS SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS

Unitec today reported second quarter earnings of $119,342 on revenues of $1,619,300 for the six month period ended May 31, 1998.

Revenues for the second quarter were $997,769, up 62% over the first quarter's $621,531, while earnings improved visibly by $98,255 during the same three months from $21,087 at the end of the first quarter.

Comparatively, earnings were up 45% over the same period last year reflecting management's focused attention to maintaining profitable growth.

International sales accounted for 41% of the revenue and generated a 52% gross profit, while domestic sales provided a 39% gross profit. The combined gross profit was 44.2%, up 1.6% from the same period last year.

Having completed two successive quarters of positive growth and earnings, a recent financing totaling $1.2 million in equity and loans and with a strong order backlog to work on, Unitec is well positioned to continue its profitable growth through the year.

Unitec is an emerging growth company specializing in advanced technology telemetry, SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems and environmental monitoring equipment for the water, electricity, oil & gas and transportation sectors. It distributes its products and services through an expanding network of independent agencies in North and South America, the Caribbean, Middle East and S. E. Asia.
