Comparable results for the prior year include profit of $243,629 and $0.05 cents per share. The quarterly 7.9% increase in sales revenue and 7.5% increase in gross profit resulting from national chain placements were mostly offset by increases in sales labor and accounting support. Jim Bernau, Founder and President of the winery said, "the economy is weak but there are more placement opportunities to be found, through increased sales staffing. The additional accounting expense is to help improve our inventory controls and financial reporting." For the nine months of 2009, the winery generated net earnings of $666,961 or $0.14 cents per share, a 45% and 40% increase respectively, over the prior year.
