Andrew Limpert, chief financial officer of Profire Energy, said: "The growth and expansion of Profire over the past year has been strong, in spite of a challenging economy. We have extended our domestic and international reach with an office in Texas, an expanded Utah office and a new distribution channel in Brazil. Our new products are giving customers great results and yielding record revenues. We've also hired a PR firm to represent the company and have consulted with an investment bank to advise us during this continued growth. While our increased investment in personnel, workspace, and R&D has—expectedly—increased our liabilities, it has also facilitated significant growth, expansion potential, and improved our market position. This investment should allow us to pursue new opportunities, secure our place as an industry leader, and continue our corporate objective of creating long-term stakeholder value."
