Champion Records Profit Gain on Lower Sales

Marshall T. Reynolds, Chairman of the Board and CEO, said, "Our year to date income from operations reflected an improvement from the prior year based on a strong comparable first quarter as well as improved operating results in the second quarter of 2010. Our second quarter was negatively impacted by costs related to the successful defense of a legal action and would have been even stronger without this event. We were able to address our credit situation through a Second Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreement (Second Amendment). This amendment will allow the Company additional flexibility in managing our business through the on-going economic turmoil that resulted from the global economic crisis."
