Net Income (Loss). Discontinued operations reflected a loss of $116 thousand, $0.01 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2009, compared with a loss of $69 thousand, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the same period of 2008.

During the three months ended March 28, 2009, we generated $11.1 million of funds through operating activities and $283 thousand from the sale of available-for-sale securities. These funds were primarily used to finance operations, invest $1.0 million in capital assets, reduce outstanding checks in excess of cash by $649 thousand and reduce debt by $9.6 million.
Working capital was reduced $14.2 million during the three month period ended March 28, 2009, principally as a result of lower levels of receivables and inventory. Receivables and inventories were reduced $9.8 million and $9.3 million, respectively, and accounts payable and accrued expenses declined by $2.7 million. Other current assets increased $2.2 million, principally as the result of seasonally higher prepaid expenses. The lower level of receivables reflected reductions of $3.2 million in trade receivables, $2.9 million in income tax receivables and $3.7 million in other receivables.
Capital expenditures for the three-months ended March 28, 2009 were $1.0 million while depreciation and amortization was $3.6 million. We expect capital expenditures to be approximately $7.0 million in fiscal 2009, while depreciation and amortization is expected to be approximately $14.0 million. Approximately $3.2 million of the anticipated 2009 capital expenditures will be for new manufacturing technology, with the remainder being expenditures to maintain our facilities and equipment.
