Our revenue is derived from new construction of residential housing and is directly related to new home sales and permits for new residential construction. The decreased activity of new residential home construction has been pronounced in Las Vegas, Nevada and Phoenix, Arizona has resulted in reduced sales level and gross margin.

Cost of sales, including all installation expenses, during the three months ended March 31, 2009 was 82.3% of net sales, as compared to 78.5% in 2008. We are anticipating competition to increase and downward pressure on our gross margin during the next year as current and potential competitors seek new revenue streams.

Provision for income taxes
The Company recorded no provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2009, because of concerns regarding the potential realization of the benefits of the tax loss.
