We would like to announce that we earned 5 cents per share on sales of $22.0
million in the fourth quarter as compared to 5 cents per share on sales of $19.3
in the same quarter last year.


Full year earnings per share of 16 cents on sales of $85.5 million were down
from 20 cents per share on sales of $78.6 million in 2010.


Our lower earnings per share for 2011 on higher sales is a direct result of
intense competition and a high Canadian Dollar. Our focus going forward must be
on cost reduction through employee involvement and service excellence as our key
sales philosophy.


Hammond Manufacturing Company Limited manufactures a broad range of products for
the electronic and electrical products industry, including metallic and
non-metallic enclosures, racks, small cases, outlet strips, surge suppressors
