BIRMINGHAM, Ala.-- (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Golden Enterprises, Inc.’s (NASDAQ: GLDC) basic and diluted income per share for the thirteen weeks ended June 1, 2007 was $.05 compared to $.01 on net sales of $29,281,775 versus $28,264,986 last year, a 4% increase.
For the 52 weeks ended June 1, 2007, net income per share was $.10 versus $.02 per share for the 52 weeks ended June 2, 2006. Net sales were $110.8 million for the year ended June 1, 2007, versus $106.6 million for the year ended June 2, 2006, an increase of 4%.
Net income increased 309% for the thirteen weeks ended and 320% for the fifty-two week period. Efficiencies and increase in net sales offset the pressures of higher fuel prices, health care and rising commodity costs.
Looking ahead, we expect the considerable momentum evident in our year end summary to continue. We contribute to the sales growth of our customers by doing what we do best: Exceeding their expectations through quality products and excellent service. Overall, Golden Flake is well positioned and equipped to seize the opportunities that will arise, and to mitigate the inevitable challenges of trans-fat free oil cost and competition in the corn market with ethanol production.
