The increase in cost of sales resulted primarily from the increase in the number of consultants on billing with clients.

The decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue was primarily attributable to a reduced discount structure at one of the Company s major accounts.

Income from operations decreased $49,000 from $120,000 in the quarter ended August 31, 2009 to $71,000 in the quarter ended August 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily attributable to expenses increasing at a greater rate than revenue.

Net income decreased $42,000 from $83,000 in the quarter ended August 31, 2009 to $41,000 in the quarter ended August 31, 2010. Net income decreased primarily due to expenses increasing at a greater rate than revenue.
