CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - March 2, 2010) - PFB Corporation (TSX:PFB) reports its financial results for the three month period and year ended December 31, 2009.

Results for the Three Month Period and Year Ended December 31, 2009

Consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $3,690,000, basic earnings of $0.56 per share, as compared to net income of $700,000, basic earning of $0.11 per share, in the year ended December 31, 2008. Consolidated sales for the year ended December 31, 2009 were $65,930,000 as compared with $79,810,000 in the prior year, a decrease of $13,880,000 or 17.4%.

Cash flow from operations for the year 2009 was $8,131,000 ($1.24 per common share) compared with $4,189,000 ($0.64 per common share) in 2008. This measure is defined in our consolidated financial statements as cash flow from operations before changes in non-cash working capital. It is a non-GAAP financial measure and does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.

Consolidated net income for the three month period ended December 31, 2009, was $1,180,000, basic earnings of $0.18 per share, compared to a loss of $437,000, basic loss of $0.06 per share, reported in the comparative three months of 2008. Consolidated sales for the fourth quarter of 2009 were $15,856,000, a decrease of $3,118,000 or 16.4% compared to sales of $18,974,000 reported in the comparative quarter of 2008.
