PORTLAND, Ore. -- (Business Wire)

Schmitt Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:SMIT) today announced its operating results for the first quarter of Fiscal year 2010, which ends May 31, 2010. Sales for the three months ended August 31, 2009 were $1,223,234 compared to $3,193,385 for the same period last year. Net loss for the first quarter ended August 31, 2009 was $584,089 or $.20 per fully diluted share compared to net income of $33,547 or $.01 per fully diluted share for the same period last year.

In the first quarter, sales in the SBS Balancer segment decreased 61.7% while sales in the SMS Measurement segment also decreased 61.7% as compared to the same period last year. Sales of the Company’s balancer and laser-based measurement products declined from prior periods due to a sharp drop in demand that began in the second half of Fiscal year 2009 as a result of rapidly deteriorating market conditions in the US auto industry, a downturn in global manufacturing and the weakening of the US and global economy generally.
