flow", said Paul Baehr, IBEX President and CEO. "Revenues were equal to a very
strong quarter year ago, and our balance sheet strengthened compared to the

FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2013 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Sales for the quarter ended October 31, 2012 totaled $754,338 compared to
$752,464 in the same period of the prior year.


The Company recorded net earnings of $68,670 compared to $144,752 for the same
period year ago. This decrease in net earnings is attributable to a lower
inventory allocation which is the impact of goods manufactured for sale in
subsequent quarters.

quarter ended October 31, 2012 to $2,846,909 from $2,677,276 in the previous

The Company's net working capital was $2,885,929 as at the end of the quarter
ended October 31, 2012 up from $2,790,395 as at the end of the prior quarter
