Waste Material Recycling sales increased 32% from last year's comparable quarter. Higher selling prices for animal feed products are driving the revenue growth. Vocational School Group revenues were 12% above the year earlier quarter as a result of increased student enrollments. Operating costs for the Waste Material Recycling segment increased compared to the same quarter of last year but the increase was at a lesser rate than the revenue gain. Vocational School Group operating costs were contained at the same level as expenses for the prior year's comparable quarter. General and Administrative expenses increased 19%.
