Goodfellow Inc. (TSX:GDL) announced today its financial results for the fiscal
year ended August 31, 2013. The Company generated net earnings of $5.3 million
or $0.62 per share compared to net earnings of $4.4 million or $0.51 per share a
year ago. Consolidated sales for the fiscal year 2013 were $483.5 million
compared to $500.7 million for the same period a year ago. Fiscal 2012-2013 main
focus was on maintaining sales levels and restoring margin discipline. Our core
lumber business performed well and was a major component of our gross margin
improvements. During Fiscal 2013, lumber sales were positively impacted by the
demand for hardwood lumber and our efforts to widen our distribution network in
all of our traditional lumber markets. 


For the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2013, the Company generated net income of $3.0
million or $0.35 per share compared to $2.5 million or $0.29 per share in the
same quarter last year. Consolidated sales declined 10% to $137.8 million
compared to $152.3 million for the same period a year ago. 


"The 2012-2013 fiscal year was one that again yielded a slight improvement over
the previous year but was far from our objectives and again overall not
acceptable." said Richard Goodfellow, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We
continue however to look for opportunities across the board and draw strength
from our diverse product and geographic coverage".


The Board of Directors of Goodfellow Inc. declared an eligible dividend of $0.20
per share payable November 29, 2013, to all shareholders of record as of
November 15, 2013.


Goodfellow Inc. is one of eastern Canada's largest independent re-manufacturers
and distributors of lumber and hardwood flooring products. Goodfellow shares
trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol GDL.
