in fiscal 2012 resulting in increases in both revenue and EBITDAC over the prior
fiscal year. The utilization rates of our VAC and HVAC fleets have increased
substantially during fiscal 2012 which had a direct impact on our profits.
During this 2012 fiscal year we placed a strong emphasis on building our earning
potential by building our fleet; and I believe the company's year-end
