THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Edmonton, Alberta - November 24, 2009 - S. Jorstad, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of United Protection Security Group Inc. ("UPSG" or "the Company"), a Canadian based company, trading on the TSX Venture Exchange, under the symbol (TSX-V: UZZ) reports that the Company has released its consolidated interim financial statements for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009 and the related management's discussion and analysis of financial position and results of operations ("MD&A").
Mr.Jorstad further states "I am pleased to report that the Company has posted a net profit in the quarter of $143,038 after realizing losses in the first two quarters of the year. This is a direct result of a committed management team working towards cost control procedures. Greater efficiency is being achieved through a process of gradual decentralization with more local authority to our branch offices with respect to delivery and account management.
While net income was below amounts posted for Q-3 last year, I am confident that the results demonstrated for Q-3 this year sets the stage for a return to continued profitability as the Company exits 2009 and enters 2010. A strong pipeline of new contracts are entering the revenue stream going forward in Q4 and beyond, including several related to 2010 Olympic suppliers’ needs", unrelated to the Vancouver Olympic Committee directed contracts.
F.Ramsoondar, Chief Financial Officer states "the Company posted revenue of $7,970,109 for the quarter, compared to $6,848,276 for the same quarter last year, an increase of $1,121,833. EBITDA(1) for the period amounted to $288,780, compared to $315,670 for the same period last year. Net income for the period amounted to $143,038, compared to $271,637 for the same period last year."
United Protection Security Group Inc. is fully committed to its long term strategy of investing in accretive acquisitions, and achieving organic growth through continuous investment in management and client service delivery.
